If you like musou and don't get dw8xl for steam

My toaster has a fan in need of replacing and is only 6gb ram man.

Himu · « **Reply #1382 on:** April 17, 2014, 10:35:12 PM »

I only have 4gb ram. You can play PSO2, you can play Musou. I doubt the requirements are that high, this is Dynasty Warriors. These games aren't graphical beasts.

bork · « **Reply #1383 on:** April 18, 2014, 07:55:52 AM »

It will run, Trent. I can't find the screenshot, but the lowest settings makes the game look worse than these titles did on PS2.

You can scale it all over the place.

Ah, here we go.

High settings:

Low settings:

It looks like the PS3 version to me- why not use the PS4 version? But if you can run this at a constant 60 FPS...

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #1385 on:** April 18, 2014, 08:41:34 AM »

@ low settings

Now I have something to play on my Pentium III!

Trent Dole · « **Reply #1386 on:** April 18, 2014, 01:12:08 PM »

Yeah, I saw those low settings screens.

I have to run PSO2 in a 1024 x 600 window for it to not kill my shit.

bork · « **Reply #1387 on:** April 18, 2014, 01:14:42 PM »

The low settings version looks like Dynasty Warriors 64 or something.

Wait...too high res for N64

Himu · « **Reply #1388 on:** April 18, 2014, 02:12:33 PM »

Fuck yeah. Got 45 fps in the benchmark.

Trent, you need a new computer before you go next gen, buddy.

Lots of new stuff, yeah. I really haven't spent much time at all on XL ('cuz fuckin' Sengoku Musou 4

) and will probably end up dropping the PS4/Vita versions in favor of the PC version at this point.

bork · « **Reply #1395 on:** April 28, 2014, 01:25:44 PM »

Change of plans- transferred my DW8 save data to the cloud..got XL on PS4 and Vita.

Now to see about getting rid of the Japanese versions...

Olivia Wilde Homo · « **Reply #1396 on:** April 28, 2014, 05:31:44 PM »

I really like this game, which is better than the lukewarm opinion I had on the game at first. This game has a ton of stages and the stages they do repeat keep it fresh enough to where you're not just wandering around either. There are so many objections and tasks going on, more than before I believe, that keeps the pace hopping. It is an OCD thing with me but I still have a hard time dealing with the fact that you can no longer seal off enemy respawn points, so you could be at the end of the level and all of a sudden, at the opposite corner of the map, you see shitloads of enemies pouring out of a respawn point. In the past Musou games, I'd wipe out every soldier and enemy officer before finishing the stage. Not the case with this game.

There is a shitload of content in this game and it feels like I got a long way to go. I'll be playing this one for a while, probably until the inevitable port of Samurai Warriors 4 hits the PS4.

Himu · « **Reply #1397 on:** April 28, 2014, 05:47:12 PM »

Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate on PS4 first! I eagerly wait DAT UPGRADE and will resume playing it in June.

The amount of content some of these recent games have is staggering. Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate and DW8XL are definitely at the top of that list.

I've taken a little break from Sengoku Musou 4 (musou'd out) and will get back to it soon. Only a few more stages and the story mode is fully-complete...then it's edit mode time.

Himu · « **Reply #1400 on:** April 29, 2014, 12:00:26 PM »

I'm not sure what to do.

I'll be getting DW8XLCE on Steam, but I want WO3 and SW4 on ps4. I don't want the inferior versions. I don't have a ps4 yet.

bork · « **Reply #1401 on:** April 29, 2014, 01:49:19 PM »

I may still get DW8XL on PC, too- it depends on how it runs and how quickly people are able to hack a save with all the story crap cleared. I'd be happy to fuck around in ambition mode.

The PC version doesn't appear to have the visual enhancements that the PS4 version got, but if it's a constant 60 FPS, who gives a shit? Also to note, the U.S. PS4 version doesn't have the option to remove or tone down the field of view blur, so the game looks like a 1080P N64 game right now. $:-\$

And let's clarify-- there is no SW4 on PS4. I mean, I think it's inevitable that an XL version will be released for PS4, but that's gonna be a long, long time from now if you're planning on waiting for an English version, which may or may not come out. We never did get SW3Z and Chronicles 2 translated.

Himu · « **Reply #1402 on:** April 29, 2014, 01:57:01 PM »

There is no SW4 on ps4, but there WILL be SW4 on ps4.

And we are getting SW4. That was confirmed earlier this year.

Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate has been rated in Australia. No platforms named yet.

MoxManiac · « **Reply #1406 on:** May 03, 2014, 10:19:45 AM »

Austrailia is considered the same region as europe right? That's encouraging, that means good chance for a NA as well.

Yup- the Tecmo Koei community guy who said it was the equivalent of the PS4 version is full of shit. The game is based on the PS3 version, so it will not have the updated visuals, but the trade-off is a potentially-better framerate.

Save data from the PlayStation 3 or PS Vita versions of Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate will unlock additional goodies in the PlayStation 4 version, this week’s Famitsu reveals.

Unlocked bonuses include:

Unlimited Mode, which tasks a team of five characters with surviving various trials to escape a multitier dungeon, has added three additional scenarios.
Growth points, stock experience points, and in-game gold presents.
20 original desktop wallpapers.
Previous title background music.
Two of all raw materials obtained in Unlimited Mode.

Additionally, Tecmo Koei announced the game would support viewer comment functionality when live streaming. If a user comments “recover,” a recovery item will appear on the field. And commenting “protect” will damage surrounding enemies with fire and thunder. There are other hidden commands, too.

First-run copies of the PlayStation 4 version will ship with Toukiden-themed character costumes. The game is due out on June 26.

Quote

Following our report from Famitsu earlier this week, Tecmo Koei has released first screenshots of Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate live streaming from PlayStation 4.

As previously reported, when live streaming, viewers will be able to interact with the player via specific comments. Commenting “protect,” for example, will induce one of five damage types (thunder, wind, ice, fire, or arrow rain) to surrounding enemies. Or by commenting “recover,” viewers can help players in a pinch by dropping a random recovery item on the field.

First-print copies of Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate for PlayStation 4 will include a set of Toukiden-themed costumes for Kaguya, Taigong Wang, and Nuwa. You’ll also find those pictured.

Went back to Sengoku Musou 4 and finished the story mode after a several week hiatus. Cleared all the story routes in just under 29 hours total. That was a really, really fun campaign mode! The last two levels were Osaka Castle -again- from each Sanada bro's perspective. Was way easier since the characters I used were properly-leveled. Actually in Yukimura's version, I barely even used him since Koshosho was available and I had her leveled a good 10 levels higher than everyone else. Steamrolled that level pretty much solo.

Four character slots were still missing, so Okuni, Mushashi, Goemon, and the fourth whose name I forget never appear in anyone's story. I encountered them all immediately, in the first two levels. when starting the CAW mode though, and see that they are now selectable characters.

It's fun this time around. New levels, better customization, and new fighting styles. Good way to extend the life of the game. You can even use your CAW in the story mode.

Yes, totally doesn't fit in with LEGENDARY WARRIORS like KUNOICHI.

It's fun to mess with the different extra styles and interact with the other characters. My first CAW, LORD MUNE KYUN SAMA, FROM CLAN AHOGE, WILL BE LEGEND!

Gameplay videos show that the game is totally fine and what I expected:

Graphic options are barebones, but does it allow you to play DW8XLCE? Yes. Finally, broken how? Everyone is reporting the game is fine.

I played Dynasty Warriors 2 and thought it was super fun but hadn't touched the series since outside of a demo or two. Am I correct in assuming 8XLCE this is the best game in the series?
