The Dynasty/Samurai/Gundam/Hokuto no Ken (Fist of the North Star) Warriors thread

[odin]

oh man, strikeforce is TOO good
i really hope they make something similar to this to console
really solid 4 player would be GODLY for a dynasty game, especially this far into the online age
one thing about SF that i really like is the difficulty, this game is hard as shit and even somewhat tough with other people playing with you

but the orb + chi system is really fun, as is hunting for items to make weapons and such
imo, better than monster hunter, but thats just me

Question for those who are playing DW: Gundam 2.

After each mission you complete, it’ll show what parts you have gained through the battle. I’ll take them but when I go on to the next battle they aren’t equiped. Does it only let you take one part? Because the first time I pressed accept for the Torso part and that is upgraded, but all the other stuff that was there wasn’t. Then on the second mission I accepted the Left Leg first and its upgraded, as well as the Torso still being upgraded. So does it only let you take one part?

Game is pretty fun so far, but I hope you get some more attacks. Its even less dynamic than the DW games. At least in Dynasty Warriors you can do a few different combos, in this one theres like maybe 3. But I’m still likin’ it.

This threw me off too but the parts are only used on their respective suits, at first I was thinking “So I have an item called Zaku II arm on Wing now?”

What do you do in Heeros last story mission?
do you just have to smash everything?

That’s another great mission, but I digress:

Heero 5

Spoiler

You have to stop Axis from crashing to Earth. You have to take the fields that the game highlights, and each field you take causes the timer to extend and one of your allies (via text) to blow a chunk off of Axis. You eventually have to fight Char (Sazabi), Quess (in her mobile armor), and Milliardo (one-on-one).

So basically, smash the shit the game tells you to smash.

Me too. Yeah, you upgrade the suit the game tells you the new part is for.

Later, you start rejecting a LOT of shit.

This mission messed me up at the end, Quess was easy for a bit then the funnels came out and holy shit those things can juggle better than seals!

Yeah I figured that’d be the case, does difficulty determine quality of parts at least?

Stick close, charge up your X attack, release, cancel into dash, take a few swipes, repeat. Dash like mad to prevent being juggled. If you have a buddy, both of you charge your X attack. One releases to create the opening, the other releases to knock down. Proceed to rape.

The Zeong, if you have it, is an ace and mobile armor killer. It can’t charge up its X attack, and only gets level 1 supers, but if you super a mobile armor point-blank when it’s weak to attack, watch its lifebar disappear. However, only resort to that if Wing Zero isn’t cutting it, as Zero is a lot more balanced and maneuverable.

I… don’t know… :wonder: I do know that beating certain extra missions makes Rank 4 parts appear for certain suits, and that you can upgrade the hell out of a part.

Some footage about Dynasty Warriors 6: empires.

Looks like the weapons can be upgraded with specials (tomes), and leveled up in Renbu…nice.
Meng Huo is GRODD!
Voice editor for CAW…awesome! I hope there are multiple voice presets.

I heard “Dabes”…my favorite track in DW6!!

Still hoping for Jiang Wei’s return…otherwise I’ll make him in CAW.

[odin]

haha everyone loves that jiang wei
he always looked like a peasant to me, which is why i thought he was cool

[Geese_Pants]

Well it’s only speculation…but some names have been popping up in the rumor mill:

Jiang Wei
Xing Cai
Da Qiao
A NEW Wei female officer
Zhu Rong

Infact, I just noticed in the DW series that Wu has 3 female officers, Shu has 2, and Wei only 1.

[odin]

well to me its always like wei were the chaotic good guys, wu were the hip good guys and the shu were the noble good guys

maybe they have trouble finding more chaotic chicks other than zhen ji
i do miss her flute though, the charge attacks were rad

Good to know, didn’t even know there was a rank 4 for parts

Is it worth the extra 30 bucks for the next gen version of DWG2 over the PS2 version?

[Geese_Pants]

Is it worth the extra 30 bucks for the next gen version of DWG2 over the PS2 version?

Well…I got both versions.
Oblviously the PS3 version looks alot nicer…but the reason I got both is because DW6(PS2) was on sale for $14.99 at the time, and it has extra Musou modes and [media=youtube]IguMja3shSI[/media] for:

Taishi Ci
Zhang He
Yue Ying
Cao Pi
Ma Chao
Ling Tong

However…I can see that DW6(PS2) lags more than DW6(PS3).

Also…no swimming in the PS2 version.

I meant Gundam 2 not DW6, lol.

Damnit…should’ve read clearly.

There is no difference in playstyle between the PS2 and the higherend versions, unless possibly the online VS mode.

Save up and get the higher end ones.

Truthfully, probably not. However, as a (sometimes) achievement whore, I appreciate the fact that my brother owns the 360 version, and that achievements are easy as pie to get.

[blazeu25]

[blazeu25]

[odin]

[Geese_Pants]

It’s free-to-play in Japan…but users pay for usable items and horses I think.
