I’m your bitch and you know it, *cough* I mean your community manager. So every day you send me your feedback on what you want in the game and so on, of course I listen to them and pick some good bits and hope to you make your dream come true. Since the release of Dynasty Warriors 7, a guy called @bgybgy was so obsessed with Da Qiao for wanting her weapon (Twin Canes) from Dynasty Warriors: Strikeforce 2 (Multi Raid 2) to be in Dynasty Warriors 7. To me, first I thought it’s not easy to persuade the team to do so because both games have the different producers and I don’t think I’m powerful enough?
But luckily, I had the opportunity to talk to the producer of Dynasty Warriors 7/XL directly during the Tokyo Game Show 2011 and asked him about his plan for the next Dynasty Warriors 7/XL DLC, he told me he might bring some old weapons from the previous Dynasty Warriors (not Strikeforce) series back as a DLC. But since I was there already, I’ve told him about how people (well this guy called @bgybgy on Twitter) are so crazy over the Twin Canes and actually begging for it as the next DLC. So I started to remind him that before the interview, during the interview (04:00) and even after the interview.
So, this is one of the case I’m definitely sure it’s not a coincidence and I personally am quite happy that the producer actually listened, the team made the twin canes as a DLC weapon as well as its moves for you and this is really one of the best thing I could do for you guys. Yes, twin canes will be your next weapon DLC for Dynasty Warriors 7 and Xtreme Legends. So, no more begging tweets, no more petitions as it’s coming as a DLC weapon in December 2011 in Japan and very early 2012 in both US and EU. We made it, like I said before, “Don’t just dream, chase for it and make it come true.”
… I love you, Chinny <3
I love you too!! <3 <3 <3
This is totally awesome ! =)
Now tell the producer about all the folowing things, and if everything comes, I’ll be so happy that I’d like to do dirty things with your dirty mouth etc. =p :
– Zhu Rong Boomerang
– Meng Huo Pillar
– Cao Ren Buckler Blade
– Cao Pi double bladed sword (from DW5)
– Lu Xun DW6 sword
– Gan Ning daggers
– Guan Ping “machette” from DW5
– Jiang Wei simple/double bladed trident
– Ling Tong DW6 weapon
Well, I don’t know when would I see him again. But as long as the twin canes made it. I’m happy! Thanks to you guys!
Thanks to us ?
Everything is happening thanks to you guy !
If you didn’t have the oportunity to speak with the producer, he’d never had listen to us !
You are what make us feel important, but you are the real important man !
This being said, I have to say I’m really happy as well. I’m really looking forward all the surprises awaiting us in 2012 !
Do you know approximately how many weapons like these awesome canes are gonna be back ?
I would assume around 4 or 5 but I’m not exactly sure. But let’s all wait for more announcement from the official side. Well if I don’t have the trust and faith from you guys, this would never happen too. So thanks to both sides and vice versa.
PINCH ME! I MUST BE DREAMING! is it for sure? I can’t wait for it.
The dream has become the reality. :)
Oh chin this is fantastic news! (It’s Reiss BTW)
love to you right now, lots and lots of love <3
Thank you baby!!
All thats left is the Twin Fans >,<!!
That’s great news Chin. Thanks for being there for us. Cheers:)
Thanks James.
On FB you said “Looks like your message has passed over successfully. Twin Canes will be a DLC weapon, the team is on their way making it and the moves now.”.
So you mean they didn’t develop it yet and they just decided they will make this weapon ?
I thought DLC were planned ages before their announcement !
It would be great if you could explain us all the development process of a video game. Maybe by showing us a “projet planning”. However I think it’s “confidential”.
I’m really interested in all the process behind a game development.
Back in the interview it was in September while the game was still in the make with no concrete DLC plan but now it’s kinda finalized :)
BTW Chin, are there any plans for DLC in the original DW7?
Yes, there are more coming but please wait for further updates.
Another reason why KOEI is a favourite company for me. You, at KOEI, and the other employees, actually listen to us. You did really well, Chin, and I can tell you your efforts are appreciated <3
Thanks :)
You’re welcome and thank you too! <3 <3
I never had the courage to write a comment but know I want to thank you so soooo much because you’re making the fans happy and listen to us if we have wishes to make DW (etc) better! :)
I don’t know if it’s possible for other DW parts but I always wished that there would be more modes, e.g. like a little RP mode where you can choose a character and have to do little quests, going into other houses etc in one kingdom. E.g. if you’re playing Guo Huai, you’re in Jin, when playing Zhou yu in wu, Zhuge liang in shu etc etc.
or a versus mode where you and your partner have a little army and fight at a stage you’ve chosen.
Thanks a lot and I will see what I can do.
I’ve decided to become a ‘crazy fan’ too from now on! Strongly wish there can be more materials added for female players. I want to see Cap Pi with new costumes, what a shame that only the new characters had them, or crown style accessories as he became an emperor in the end. The one in Xtreme is the same style apply to all characters, which is just sad. and you can’t even do your own combination as it only goes with 1p costume. I don’t mind spending my money on DLC really, I mean, give me more DLC!
If there’s a chance, could you also ask KOEI for me, why does CaoPi has such a low voice this time, the previous ones and in musou orochi was much more suitable. I guess KOEI made the voice actor to do this on purpose, but I mean, it’s really a little old for his age and his look lol.
i’m just wondering, do you know when the twin cane will come out?
Maybe you should tell them that Liu bei succeed Han dynasty instead of building Shu Kingdom. Shu is called by Wei, Jin, and the historians. The former attempted to claim their legitimacy(lie). The latter try to separate it from the former Han. This is all based on history, and Liu bei will be happy to hear people call them the third Han(季漢) instead of Shu Han. I think it is easy to let everybody know its true name by video games. It is pretty simple, right?
Now I’m almost tempted to tentatively ask for the bladed bow back for Yue Ying, but she’s already got the dagger-axe. :S Oh well. /whine whine
Oh, I’d like to echo Hanbei’s thoughts with more modes in DW. That would be a LOT of fun.
Thanks so much for all of your hard work, Chin. C: Happy New Years! <3
Thanks so much!!
