Warriors Orochi 4 Special Team Combinations

Posted on

Contents. Gameplay As with the previous iterations, the player is given control of a three-man team consisting of characters from the and series. Each character has a class type that determines their ability: Power, Speed, and Technique; the Wonder type introduced in Warriors Orochi 3 has been removed. New to the series is the concept of magic and Sacred Treasures, techniques that allow characters to perform special feats to overcome enemies. These depend on a specific category that is separate from the class system, and are performed by holding down the right shoulder button and pressing either the normal, charge, or musou attack buttons, the latter two requiring a special magic gauge, and the last also requiring half of a player's musou gauge.

As such, these replace the type actions from the previous games. Because of this, characters from the Dynasty Warriors series lack their second musou attack, but retain the ability to perform an aerial musou attack, and characters from the Samurai Warriors series lack their special attacks, but retain the ability to perform hyper attacks. The ability to mount a horse remains in Warriors Orochi 4, and is performed by holding down the right shoulder button and pressing the jump button. The Awakening mechanic from Dynasty Warriors 8 and Musou Gokui mechanic from Samurai Warriors 4 are unified in Warriors Orochi 4, and may only be activated by obtaining a rare powerup during gameplay and pressing the left analog stick; when playing with only a single Joy-Con on the Nintendo Switch, this is instead activated by pressing both SL and SR, as the left analog stick alone is normally mapped to the character switch functionality. Only one character from a team may use this at a given time, though the character activating it need not be the character that obtained the powerup, and players may still switch characters while the mode is active. Once activated, the character may perform their Rage attack, consistent with both Dynasty Warriors 8 and Samurai Warriors 4.

Characters central to the story are, once the relevant portions of the story are cleared, be given a 'deification' form based on figures from Greek or Norse mythology, which will be in effect while Awakening or Musou Gokui is in effect, strengthening their various other actions in the process. As with previous games, most stages in Warriors Orochi 4 are taken from either earlier installments of the Warriors Orochi series, or the Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors source games, with a minimal amount of original stages, reskinned to suit the theme of Warriors Orochi 4. However, new to this game are mashup stages where one part of a stage is taken from Dynasty Warriors and another part is taken from Samurai Warriors; for example, the Baidi Castle stage from Dynasty Warriors 8 has the upper portion taken from the Oshu Castle stage from Samurai Warriors 4. The game features several multiplayer options, including a three-versus-three competitive multiplayer mode. Retrieved 2018-06-28. Retrieved 2018-06-28. Retrieved 2018-07-06.

No guest characters like Ryu Hayabusa. The reason given is they're focusing on the core Sangoku and Sengoku franchises. The story and setting are supervised by Yoshitaka Murayama, the creator of the Suikoden series. The main antagonist is Zeus, the Greek god.

Orochi will be a key character. Orochi and Shin Orochi will exist at the same time, but details are mum. The new system called “Divine Action” will add new mechanics such as Divine Arts and Deification. Divine Arts grants various effects like special crowd control abilities. Deification is tied to specific characters and unlocks through story progression. It's a Devil Trigger/SSJ-type install ability where the character powers up and changes their appearance. There will be three-man groups and a Free Mode-type feature.

They're considering a two-player local multiplayer with Joy-Cons, but they’re trying to work around the lack of buttons. Aiming for a Fall 2018 release. More info at the link. Man, first Murayama does the story for Alliance Alive, now he's supervising the story in this.

He's been more active on games lately than in the decade after leaving Konami. I'm glad to see him being recognized for his talents and that he's doing more gaming work.

Route my faction if old. One of the things I liked about the first was that they retained the kingdom story mode they had in the likes of DW4, but often with somewhat atypical leads and kingdom structure compared to what we were used to. I thought it was extremely boring to make Sima Zhao one of the leads in WO3, since he was already pretty much the lead in DW7's Jin kingdom (who, spoilers, win in the end, making him kind of the hero of the whole story. Ditto for DW8). And Ma Chao is super one-dimensional. Dunno much about wheel kid, but he didn't really interest me either. Merging the rest of the characters into a unified faction makes sense from the way the story is structured (as one long string of events rather than several different factions in the same span of time), but, like you said, doesn't have that special dynamic.

This man gets it. Fuck Liu Bei.

benevolently finds the biggest bastards he could to do the heavy lifting in a fight to make him famous. Gets em to like him and rides their coat tails and does nothing but self promote. The one fight they one together was against peasants with sticks and used no strategy. Only the brute power of his 'brothers' to get him started. Sound like a leader or a thug with delusions of grandeur?. benevolently has no idea how to run a province and flees from every battle as a refugee with his people in tow rather than just surrender and save their homes and livelihoods. Benevolently backs himself into a corner and has to get help by the incredibly powerful military Wu kingdom.

To date his biggest win was only due to the strategies and efforts of others but hey Wu thought he was a great political figure to use so they helped him and won a battle for him. Benevolently goes into a marriage with the daughter of the Wu kingdom's top brass to secure a foothold. Turns out she was scared of Liu Bei, knew she was a political tool for him and was scared he would have her killed. Went everywhere with guards and later fled to be away from him. Benevolently refused to give his gifted province back to Wu when asked.

Thats right he immediately stole from his benefactors, used their daughter, and somehow after getting his ass handed to him by Wu over this talks himself out of losing this land and stays on to manage it after having done nothing to illustrate he could defend its people, manage it, or truly deserve their daughter. Benevolently went to visit his family after sensing his meal ticket nearly ending. This family had a ton of land in the sticks.and then he stole their entire kingdom with military force once let inside the kingdom and spun it to sound like he was liberating them somehow. So he betrayed his blood family and political one as well to try and make himself look like a bigshot. Benevolently fucked up and had to flee every battle he was in if Wu wasn't there to save his ass.

Benevolently made the dumbest fucking decision ever as soon as he had a lot of land and thought he would just invade everywhere at once and split his defenses too far apart from supply lines and reinforcements. Almost instantly got his top fighters Guan Yu and Zhang Fei killed the second he took the helm and tried to call the shots over his strategists.

Literally got someone hailed as the God of War killed due to how bad he was at actually being in charge. Benevolently spiked his fucking baby on his head once just to prove a point and tell a fighter he was more valuable than his own blood but only AFTER that soldier had already fought his way through an army and back out to rescue him thus insulting his efforts IMO. This baby Liu Shan was mentally retarded after this and was who his kingdom was left to. Fuck Liu Bei and his 'benevolence'. Cao Cao was a master strategist himself.

When he took over an area he'd party with the locals forever and spend wealth to enrich their lives, and the way he fought was surgical and strict and exacted enough control over a land struggling for order that it brought stability and peace. He instilled loyalty, a security anywhere he had conquered by showing the people he could make life better for them. He would fight, win, improve lives and leave them better with his own army there to help them rebuild.

He conquered as a recruitment drive and it was fucking good. Wei was the best kingdom, Shu was a dumbass with a high charisma stat who spent a helluva lot of time running and publicising himself to become popular, and Wu would not stop fucking in fighting amongst family over whose military dick was the biggest to go out and do anything for anyone. Wu literally was the strongest and best at fighting and should have won had they gotten their house in order long enough to make a go at it. They were by far the most fortified geographically, military, politically, and supply wise but they were just too busy squabbling over who was the best and who deserved all of it. They picked their own kingdom apart instead of growing it. Wei was the ONLY kingdom that went out and tried to make a difference and put shit in order.

It took the strategic brilliance of Cao Cao's top strategist Sima Yi and his family to win after Cao Cao died and his family started getting pretty shit similar to Wu. When Sima Yi and his folks was forced to become Jin after multiple jealous regime changes after Cao Cao's death tried to eliminate him and his family it was still pretty much the best of the best of Wei at the helm of Jin. I still consider Jin the truest Wei elite though and they deserved that win just like they did when they made up Wei in the beginnings.

They just culled egos and politcal head men in their revolt and takeover and once they had their house in order they quickly swept Shu and showed up in force to completely surround the insanely fortified geographical kingdom of Wu and end the war. In other words, they saw an end game that was needed and put their foot down on all the bullshit and were the only ones smart enough to do so in a manner that would hold the kingdom together instead of divide it apart over ego and political power squabbling for position. Fuck Liu Bei. All he was in actuality was a talentless hack surrounding himself with publicity and the backing and superior talents of other military individuals. He stole, conned, and sweet talked for everything he had and was no good for anyone. Wei knew what was needed and the ones within Wei who understood it the most and were closest to Cao Cao became Jin and salvaged that dream once Wei tried to descend upon itself out of greed once Cao Cao was gone. Best kingdom was whoever had Sima Yi in charge at the time.

They were the only ones who got it. One of the things I liked about the first was that they retained the kingdom story mode they had in the likes of DW4, but often with somewhat atypical leads and kingdom structure compared to what we were used to. I thought it was extremely boring to make Sima Zhao one of the leads in WO3, since he was already pretty much the lead in DW7's Jin kingdom (who, spoilers, win in the end, making him kind of the hero of the whole story. Ditto for DW8). And Ma Chao is super one-dimensional.

Dunno much about wheel kid, but he didn't really interest me either. Merging the rest of the characters into a unified faction makes sense from the way the story is structured (as one long string of events rather than several different factions in the same span of time), but, like you said, doesn't have that special dynamic.

After having replayed WO3U again earlier this year, it's really obvious that the starter characters are all to give attention to newer additions to both series. Sima Zhao and Hanbei are rather obvious, while Ma Chaos is more because of newer additions in vanilla DW7 and XL (Ma Dai, Pang De, Wang Yi) Sima Zhao was definitely a bland pick for Jin but it makes sense, and other newer characters that weren't there from the very beginning still got plenty of focus in 3's early story (notably Jia Xu) I am curious as to how they'll do the story for WO4. They'll obviously give some focus on newer additions (one of the screenshots already has Yue Jin and Naomasa in one shot) but I wonder if we'll get the same single faction approach again. I can respect making a guest character series, but Warriors All Stars wasn't their best work. I wont call it bad though. It had a pretty lackluster mechanic in the 5 person formations and cheerleader stuff. Neither really resonated or felt like it was too exciting (though the formations held potential to go further).

I think level structuring may have hurt All Stars. The way you can progress the story from anyone's perspective you wanted to start as made it a pretty non linear design and caused it as a whole to feel more flat with less properly built moments to it since any battle could potentially have been entered into from a different point in story depending on who you chose to start with. Warriors All Stars has potential but it needs some mechanical improvements and a more traditional story mode approach. Honestly the main story almost felt like the sort of organizational process as a 'nintendo musou adventure mode or history mode' gone awry. I think the series could turn around pretty hard. It wont stop me from missing Nemea and DOA stuff in Orochi 4 though, but I will give credit where its due. It has potential.

Honestly so does DW9 but as was the case with 6 and 7 its obviously the prototype for a much more ambitious sequel someday. Its a foundation to build upon.
