Don't forget to Upload your officer so it can annoy other players! You can also download other people's officers and add them to your collection, if you find any that aren't terrible monstrosities.

Though some are just the same armor sets because I can be unimaginative at times when I want filler officers for custom kingdoms.

I think most of my edit officers are swaps for historical persons. I just think beating on a bunch of dudes with the same weapons and generic costumes gets boring after a while

I had a vagabond unit join me and it was full of hideous green men and people in cat costumes with gibberish symbol names. I guess I'd better turn guest officers off.

I haven't played a Dynasty Warriors game in a long while, I think the last one was on the DW4 on PS2. I was thinking about getting one of the newer ones to see how far its come after 4 versions. Which one should I get for the most content bang for my buck: Warriors Orochi 3 or Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires? What is the difference between Orochi 3 and Orochi 3: Ultimate? I don't care about story or whatever I have played through the three kingdoms more than enough I just care about how many levels/characters/modes the game comes with and how replayable it is.

Orochi 3 Ultimate is pound for pound the densest game in franchise history when it comes to content. There's over a hundred characters and hundreds of hours worth of content, granted that they don't explain who any of the characters are. Empires really can't stand against O3U in terms of content.

There are so many god damned generics in this game--making edit officers for everyone would be madness unless you printed out a list of names, hit Random on the edit screen and just did that over a hundred times. I'm told that if you replace a generic who has spoken lines like Hua Xiong (sp?) from Hu Lao Gate, then the event they take part in and need spoken lines for can't play, so that's a minor concern as well if you're trying to unlock those for free mode. marshmallow creep fucked around with this message at 06:03 on Mar 3, 2015 |

So, there is no way to edit the 'Way of Life' choice to adjust how AI acts in free mode? Even with historical swaps , they have Ordinary Man AI. KOEI done hosed up if they expect you to clear a campaign for each edit.

It feels a bit weird to play WO3 after playing DW8, since the base engine or whatever is older and feels a bit clunky. Same with going from SW4 to DW8:E, since the SW4 engine to me feels a bit more polished.

Do any of the patches adjust the difficulty of Hard? I've found hard is too easy while chaos just doesn't look fun to play at all. About all I can think of doing is handicapping myself by not using items or good weapons.

lurksion posted:Is anyone else completely stagger immune in 8 Empires? I know the tutorial popup says if you have more defensive bases you get more resistance (with X? having immunity), but I'm seemingly immune all the time. Lotish posted:I've definitely been staggered, though one of the first things I got was the armor to reduce stagger from arrows. Hard, Me 55, Enemy 55 Nothing flinches me, regular peons, officer attack strings, officer charge attacks, mosous, nothing. The only thing that actually moves your character are knockup charge attacks/mosous or grabs. Hard, Me 55, Enemy 55 Most officer attack strings still do not cause flinches, but some do (???). Seems all charge attacks and mosous now cause flinches. Hard, Me 1, Enemy 99 Didn't live long, but seems all officer attacks cause flinches. Easy, Me 1, Enemy 99 Nothing flinches, need grab moves or knockups again. Chaos, Me 55, Enemy 55 Didn't live long, but seems all officer attacks cause flinches. This is an rear end-tarded implementation of...I don't even know what they're going for. But it makes the game way too easy on anything not Chaos. And even on Chaos, it's not exactly fun, since as traditional in these games, you go all offensive or go home. TLDR: On any non-Chaos difficulty, you will not get flinched/staggered unless the enemy considerably out-levels you. Koei is retarded. lurksion fucked around with this message at 17:00 on Mar 3, 2015 |

...What character/moveset are you? I remember something about at least one weapon granting immunity. I say this mostly because I've not encountered any 'no flinch', and I'm on Normal.

Largepotato posted:Do any of the patches adjust the difficulty of Hard? I've found hard is too easy while chaos just doesn't look fun to play at all. Normal was also super easy, especially with a 2-star weapon I got from a quest (which worked well until I had about 2/3 of China under my thumb). I haven't minded too much though; this was supposed to be my learning run before going up to higher difficulties. I'll definitely be unlocking some weapons for my next playthrough though; it didn't see, like the AI built any blacksmiths on their own, so I had to give up 6 months building them once I took over in order to get a strong enough weapon.

grrarg posted:From the PS Store thread: IGN's description posted:Players can chose to experience a realistic depiction of this period through the game's normal mode or choose to explore a fictitious original narrative in 'Nightmare' mode. In 'Nightmare' mode, the war between England and France wages on as a mysterious horde of outlandish creatures appear to be led by a form of Joan of Arc, who has turned evil.  I guess I'm glad that bladestorm is getting some attention; it was a cool idea that I'd like to have seen done better, but it sounds like this is just going to be a prettied-up remake and also dragons (if you want them).

If I wanted a PS4 Warriorsy game, would I be better off buying Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate, or waiting for that Bladestorm remake? I've only played DW8:XLUltimate Steam Edition and also Hyrule Warriors, and I know Bladestorm is a little different, but I like the sound of a ridiculous England vs France war... Also I would only be somewhat familiar with like a third of the characters in WO3 so

If you already played 8 XL, then Bladestorm would probably be better because of the different game play. Orochi is gameplay wise 8 XL with more characters.

Davincie posted:why not samurai warriors? I dunno, I figured Samurai Warriors would be even more like Dynasty Warriors except in Japan instead of China. I figured WO3 would be crazynuts everybody with a wacky plot, or Bladestorm would be somewhat different gameplay with also a secondary wacky plot, but didn't really think to get Samurai Warriors. Is it good too? I think I only briefly played a Samurai Warriors on Wii or something at a friend's house, once, a few years back.

Bladestorm is more a weird strategy game where you control a unit rather than one dude against thousands. Consider getting WO3: Ultimate if you want literally hundreds of hours of gameplay, or SW4 maybe as it's pretty polished.

sw4 is similar of course since its still a main line warriors game, but it is imo the most polished warriors game in gameplay and graphics and an entirely new cast plus several gameplay mechanics (hyper attacks alone are fantastic and chronicle mode with its thin veneer of rpg gameplay adds tens of hours) make it feel pretty fresh. i did take a several month break between it and dw8 though

I posted this in the PS3 gameshare thread. Reply there if interested. I like what I'm hearing about SW4.GANDHITRON posted:Anyone wanna split Samurai Warriors 4? I think it's fifty bucks. I can buy. Please respond in this thread and also PM me if possible. If you don't know what gamesharing is, you can basically split the cost of most PS3 games available through PSN with someone else. The OP in that thread is a bit outdated, so feel free to ask me for more details.
