Multiple swords

[Kadaj]

When i first saw that screen with all the swords it reminded me of Auron's Masamune for some reason. xD I think cos the middle one looks a little like it. I hope they dont all lock into one like AC. I wouldnt like them reusing such an original idea. :/

[Desi]

Some don't even look like swords. I think maybe one or two were spears but I have bad eyes. The swords do differ a lot though especially the ones with the long handles

[Hextan]

No I don't think that they will combine but maybe you can switch from one to another in battle. Maybe the farther you get in the game the more you get to use and with each one you gain a bunch of new abilities.

[unknown+_+]

MAN toughs swords r cool
& yes some of them r spears [i'm looking at pic]
It would be cool if u did get new abilities, & gain power.

[Meia]

I read in a magazine that you would be able to switch weapons right in the middle of the battle:S but I am not sure of how they are planning in doing it. I think the swords are really cool around him.

[Kadaj]

Yeah, I thought that. There might be a quick weapon change system like switching guns or sword on DMC3.

[Kitmitsu]

Maybe the weapon change system will be whats happening in the screenshot? I think it would be pretty cool if weapons materialized around him, would be pretty original and the PS3 can easily handle it ^_^ It would probably be kinda slow though so they could counter it by making it go all slow motion when you change weapons.

[Kadaj]

That would be soooo annoying every time you wanted to change weapon. :/

[Kitmitsu]

Well if it was quicker it wouldnt be soo bad :P Hmmm this game is gonna be really DMC like isnt it :P

[Yin&Yang]

:blink: You're judging the entire game after looking only one screen shot.

[Megalixir]

Its called GILGAMESH people.

[Desi]

Its called GILGAMESH people.
oh no you didn't!! Just from the screens we got to see though, he reminds me of Joachim from Castlevania: Lament of Innocence but with black hair and not a vampire(even though both eyes are red).

[Hextan]

Its called GILGAMESH people.

What's called GILGAMESH?

[Desi]

What's called GILGAMESH?
character first shown in FF5 that held multiple weapons. Shown in FF8, FF9, FF11(only similair in name), and FF12 as well.

He is comparing the use of multiple weapons at once to Gilgamesh from FFV. saying that the boy is like gilgamesh in a way.

Posted by Eirie from the Gametrailers boards aka Hell #2.

The one labeled "Quiver" reminds me more of a jousting pike with the protective handle shield thingy instead of a arrow holder. the "Gun" is insteresting though.

[Enedok]

Nice. 11 items. But I must disagree on the arrow. Looks more like a mace or a staff to me.

An how the heck is that supposed to be a bow?

Looks like 4 of the weapons have engines on them.

[Kitmitsu]

Wow thats some real quality MS Paint work there :P

I don't really agree with alot of the less obvious weapons there. First the Two Daggers there definatly arent daggers. If you look at the trailer they both rotate together and are connected in the middle. It either looks like another double handed kind of sword or maybe a bow I suppose but its still very unclear. The 3 weapons on the right I think are like GHenrik said a mace, another form of sword and it does look alot like a jousting pike like Desi said which seems like a rather weird choice of weapon.

I checked and I can't really see the gun being anything else. It looks sort of like a gun but we can't be sure. Lets hope we get a nice HD trailer soon :D

[[teehee]

Ive looked at it myself and done one of them myself too. :p I made the font a little clearer too <3

[Tifa]

I read that he has them on him at all times, but he doesn't only wield SWORDS, he also has lances, spears and other things, so I assume they meant even more things than we see in the trailer, so who knows what else he has. He can also probably fuse them together to create something insanely powerful. He's so hot, too. -sighs-

Much better labels. I was feeling the same way with the axe, second gun thingy, short sword, duel swords being totally different(look at the right ones handle), and that strange double-edged sword.

[Enedok]

Ten times better image! The small gun got to be a shotgun.

I still think the small item is a mace, but the other weapon with a engine looks like some real fun with hack and slash :w00t:

[Anima]

I just wanna know how an engin is going to help his sword... O.o but I do know one of his weapons is an axe

http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f309/fallenchaos/vlcsnap-45446.png

sorry if its to small >.<

[XwingsofaresX]

i dont think so because the character using swords, right? so he cant really use guns...

i dont think so. he looks like he'd prefer swords. maybe its traditional for the story...^_^

EDIT: Merged double post - Kitmitsu

[Kitmitsu]

Yeah the axe is one of the more obvious ones deflecting bullets. I have no idea how an engine on a sword is going to work. No doubt they'll make it work perfectly though :P

[XwingsofaresX]

i love the idea that he has a sword with an engine...:) ...hmm...maybe it can be used for something else besides battles...give me an idea, people^_^

[Zeta_Stryker]

Well if it was quicker it wouldnt be soo bad :P Hmmm this game is gonna be really DMC like isnt it :P

That post in itself is just laughable. Considering that you haven't seen the game for more screen shots or trailers.

Though, perhaps that will be his base weapon. Or maybe final weapon

[Anima]

I still say his sword changes turns into a chainsaw. XD Silent Hill anyone? :3 hehehe but yes square will probally have some genius idea behinde it -_-

[Desi]

I doubt it would reuse the vibration of Gunblades from FFVIII fame. The motor could activate the crystal in the sword to "change elments" or something no where near as important.

[Ookami-Herutsu]

its just really a cool looking sword, i think the whole engine thingy is just for its uniqueness XP, its a neat idea for a weapon design. in the trailer i love how it reves FROOOMM~~ lolz

-Ookami Herutsu

[Lady-15]

it would be cool to start with one sword
and the more you train him the more swords you get ^_^

[Enedok]

But what can a engine do inside a sword. Its a bit dull if its only to pump crystal around it...

Ten times cooler if you can hold the mainframe while the sword spins around at 200RPM, thats hack and slash O.o

[Kitmitsu]

I wonder how many miles it can do to the gallon : o

[Desi]

it would be cool to start with one sword
and the more you train him the more swords you get ^_^
No it wouldn't.

[Sephirothjr]

is this guy like a one man army because i saw the trailer and picture and saw many different weapons but when i came to this forum and saw a new scan i saw he had a gun aswell

[Firewolf]

nomura did state they'll be other characters with there own uniqe weapons and abilities

[UltimaMasamune]

Its called GILGAMESH people.


imagine how badass a fight between him and the main character will be

and his weapons look cool, a bit too many swords though

[Misschoco]

thats why their concealed ^_^

i wana see these swords in action :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

They'll be using this in the FF7 sequel. Which is obviously going to be made.

[Misschoco]

whats that????

[UltimaMasamune]

whats that????

Crisis Core for PSP I think, but it's a prequel though

[Misschoco]

Crisis Core for PSP I think, but it's a prequel though

i see but thats not necessarily the sequel

[Desi]

Don't listen to Ozonez. Says strange things then never explains them. ex. korean AC music video thread.

[Rev-SQ]

You know, his swords remind me of a video I saw on Youtube.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUsVi9hM2ss

You know, the part with the red swords?

And it'd be awesome if he had dozens of guns flying around him. Then he'd litterally blow people away. *drool* I have a non-sexual fetish for guns. Not violent though. Just cuz they look cool in anime and videogames.

[Misschoco]

sacks killing each other with swords^-i'v never seen that before.....interesting




i'd prefer if versus guy in his set of guns has 2 large gunblades and one other double whammy shotgun-whatever its called

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

haha nice video :lol:

[Terros]

How many swords does he have exactly....say, isn't that sword with the engine powered by "crystal fuel"? I don't know for sure, that's what I read in one of the pictures that was labled.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Who--? Wha--? Where did you get all these info from?! :blink:

[Terros]

Some one posted up a few pictures with the various swords labeled. There was a close up of *Storm(??) reaching for that sword with the engine and the label pointed to a blueish thing on the engine and said "Crystal Fuel" or something like that.

heres one of the pics :rolleyes:

http://finalfantasyversusxiii.net/screenshots/ffversusxiiiweapons.jpg

[Terros]

It was a different one, it speciffically showed him reaching for the engine sword.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

*Is amazed by the picture that MissChoco had posted*
:ohmy:

[Terros]

There should be another one that shows what I'm talking about.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Then you should post it, Terros :nod:

[Interficio Nocte]

I hope they let Storm Dual-Wield in the very begining of the game. He would be the fist main who could from the very beggining I think. But he does not look like the kinda guy who would dual-wield two ninja swords or katanas.......

Or in FFXIV they need to make the Main a Ninja.:D

Maybe the Engine sword is like a Viro blade from KOTOR. It vibrates slightly to make a very good, clean, swift cut, Like a Katana.

[Desi]

That is what a gunblade(in SE terms) does. You pull the trigger on impact to vibrate the blade.

Well, my idea was shot down.:( *thinks of a new one*

[Terros]

Then you should post it, Terros :nod: Ok, goes on picture hunt.

[Misschoco]

Ok, goes on picture hunt.

here i'v found it for you :P

Hey I wanted to put it up! T_T

:blink: You were writing with the mouse, weren't you? :P

[Terros]

Definately mouse writing, but anywho, yep that's the picture. Here we can see a crystal or atleast a fragment of the crystal.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Oh wait, is that the gunblade thing that he has in his hand at the end of the trailer? Ohhhhhhh.... *finally realizes what's in the picture*

[Allen Walker]

Uhhh....no...?

[Terros]

Oh wait, is that the gunblade thing that he has in his hand at the end of the trailer? Ohhhhhhh.... *finally realizes what's in the picture* No it's an engine sword, not a gunblade.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

No it's an engine sword, not a gunblade.

Same difference :P
*dumbest Asian in the whole history of dumb Asians*

[Lucrecia]

I never really noticed that crystal powered thing on the sword.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Neither have I till now ^_^
It looks really cool, I wonder how the artist get so much ideas for the games

[Desi]

It looks really cool, I wonder how the artist get so much ideas for the games
books and pop culture. Just fuse ideas together that sound very different.

[Terros]

Neither have I till now ^_^
It looks really cool, I wonder how the artist get so much ideas for the games

That's because it goes by so fast in the trailer.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

I use the pause and rewind tactic :lol:
GO FAST-NESS!
...Or maybe, they could make it slow to mimic Matrix lol

[Terros]

That would be unoriginal.....

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

It would? Not really, it adds and emphasizes movement :rolleyes:

[Misschoco]

It would? Not really, it adds and emphasizes movement :rolleyes:

but the action wouldnt be fast pace :rolleyes:

[Desi]

Wait is this conversation about weapon selection or revving up the sword? Because weapon selection can be easily added like it was in the trailer. The weapons spinning around can work like the weapon wheel in Drakengard just without freezing the gameplay allowing you to select while under attack or use it as a blocking mechanism. Yes, I have said this before. Just didn't know if you all were bringing it back up.

So fast is better? <_<

[Terros]

Yes, I think so, plus it would stun you how many games out there are COPYING the matrix style thing. And that isn't Square's style at all, they love being original as much as possible. So I don't think they will use that method.

[Misschoco]

what terros said^

instead of creating a cool matrix effect in ffvxiii(if square were to do that) it would just create a comic effect.with people going 'wtf??'

[Lucrecia]

Sqaure has barely done that type of technique with the Matrix style. A little in Advent Children and Kingdom Hearts and that's bascally it. But if they did that in Versus I would have no idea what to think. It would probably ruin the fights and just wouldn't suite the character much. Fast pace is better even if it makes you dizzy.

[Terros]

I don't get dizzy, I love fast pace action.

Hmm, fast movement also saves time by not having to draw too much detail as the slow-motion ^_^
...Ah, the producers are geniuses

[Terros]

Didn't think of that aspect.

well said

the matrix effect would just give an adverse reaction to what square tried to achieve

i'd just laugh :lol:

[Lucrecia]

i'd just laugh :lol:

I probably would too because it would just look funny. The way this game looks, fast pace looks like it would suite it better. Matrix style would look funny.

[Terros]

I agree.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Well, it kinda had a matrix effect towards the end at the close-up and his eyes get all shiny and red and cool :P

*drools*

[Terros]

Yeah, but that wasn't in game play.

[Misschoco]

Well, it kinda had a matrix effect towards the end at the close-up and his eyes get all shiny and red and cool :P

*drools*

it wasn't actually the matrix effect-it was still too fast paced towards the end to be 'the matrix effect'

[Desi]

Well, it kinda had a matrix effect towards the end at the close-up and his eyes get all shiny and red and cool :P

*drools*

That was called Slow motion not Bullet time.

[Terros]

Slow motion is good, if not used in in-game play. And if not used too much.

[Alphonse]

Dont know anything about his weapons but his weapons are awesome!

[Misschoco]

Dont know anything about his weapons but his weapons are awesome!
well he has 'bout 11 of them and we dont know much about it either :rolleyes:
Slow motion is good, if not used in in-game play. And if not used too much.
so true....game play would seem sluggish if slow mo was incorporated into actual game play

[Lifrasthir]

Has Square announced what pace Versus XIII is going to be?

[Interficio Nocte]

I think that they said it would be fast...And slow motion would be cool if they did it like they did it in the movie 300..

[Lifrasthir]

Slow motion would be good, only to a certain degree. Don't over kill on the slow mo.

[Lucrecia]

If it's fast with little slow motion then that's fine. Otherwise like TF said it would over kill the slow motion.

[Lifrasthir]

Oh I really hope they don't kill Versus XIII with slow motion gaming..

[Lucrecia]

Oh I really hope they don't kill Versus XIII with slow motion gaming..

Well if they say it's going to be fast pace. then most likely there's going to be a lot of face pace action. so I don't think we'll have to worry about them over killing the game with slow motion.

[Lifrasthir]

It should be Allegretta. Which is a, wrongly spelled, musical term for slightly slower than fast.

[Interficio Nocte]

Wow, somebody must play the Piano.....

[Lifrasthir]

Piano, clarinet, guitar, and hopefully the saxaphone. :D

[Interficio Nocte]

Wow, I play the Piano, Drums, used to play the Trumpet.

[Lifrasthir]

Why'd you quit Trumpet?

[Interficio Nocte]

Liked Piano better, and I am better at playing the piano....

[Misschoco]

I think that they said it would be fast...And slow motion would be cool if they did it like they did it in the movie 300..
hehe 300 was frigin cool and one of the best films ever..........but sometimes slow-mo can kill a game i.e ffvxiii..........it just wouldnt go

[Interficio Nocte]

300 was awesome...:w00t:..Anyway, I guess it might but if they did it right it would make the game even better..

[Misschoco]

300 was awesome...:w00t:..Anyway, I guess it might but if they did it right it would make the game even better..
300=:w00t:

if the timing of the slow mo was right then maybe just maybe it would be alright in the game

[Lifrasthir]

I had a friend say 300 was :w00t: as well. Not sure I'll go see it though...And yeah Miss Choco, if the slow mo. was timed just right then it'd be okay...but that would be pretty hard to do...but Square could pull it through. :nod:

[Terros]

Shouldn't we be talking about his swords?

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Hmmm... yeah we should...
What else there to say about his swords though? They're cool-looking and that's basically it :blink:

...Oh oh! And they fly! :lol:

[Terros]

And the teleport Storm from one area to another. Do you think he gets his power from the crystal? And if so how is he getting it. Then if so, that would mean that one of the powers the crystal gives is teleknesis....

[Interficio Nocte]

Wait, so you are saying that the swords are the things teleporting him?:blink:

[Desi]

Wait, so you are saying that the swords are the things teleporting him?:blink:

He throws a weapon(in the trailer it was one of his swords) and he warps over to it. It only happens when he throws a weapon though, that is why it relates to the weapons.

[Interficio Nocte]

Oh.................>_<

[Terros]

Yes, so do you think the power his weapons have come from him or do they have powers on there own. Like if some random guy stole one could he use the powers of that weapon? Or is it exclusive only to Storm. Here's a theory, what if the weapons are made from parts of the crystal?

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

That's a good theory, but should the crystals be used to make weapons? It's the only handful of crystals left in the world! That makes it priceless

[Desi]

I don't believe the weapons are made out of crystal. Probably something like mythril since they still resemble metal. It also would make sense based on how expensive Mythril is.

[Terros]

True true, the may have a piece of the crystal imbedded in them as well.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Maybe, then that most likely means those weapons are used only by him or higher generals

[Terros]

Perhaps...

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Because if the weapons are made with something so precious, then if they give one to everyone, even the lowest rank, people can make off with it or something :blink:

[Desi]

Because if the weapons are made with something so precious, then if they give one to everyone, even the lowest rank, people can make off with it or something :blink:
Um that is very silly. I can see the point of selling it on the blackmarket but you can't really just join the army, get gear, and desert while expecting to live for the next 48 hours.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

But the world is huge and the army must be great as well, how can they keep track of every unit and their movements?

[Desi]

The US army does....

I am positive they could as well. If they were mercs I can see them doing that but not normal troops. Too much at stake for a spiffy blade.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Maybe they input clips in their body to track them... just a thought :P

[Terros]

Or satallite.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Sounds too modern but then again, there's cars :blink:

[Terros]

It takes place in our time, not before. Plus Storm's city is up-to-date with ours.

[Lifrasthir]

If we're talking about tracking then most likely they'll use satellite.

[Terros]

Exactly, this doesn't take place in the past, they most likely have satillite.

[Interficio Nocte]

Use nanomachines like in MGS4....

[Terros]

That might not be just yet, but with the crystal I'm sure it would be possible.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Wow so basically EVERYTHING revolves around the crystals :blink:

[Terros]

Yes, Nomura made this clear from earlier interviews. That's what all the FFXIII's revolve around.

[Lifrasthir]

Would the Crystal have its own tracking mechanism?

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Probably, I'm guessing since the Crystal seem to be the center of everything but why would it have it, I'm not so sure. :blink:

[Terros]

Would the Crystal have its own tracking mechanism?

I would think so, for that what if they manage to get it away from Storm.

[Lifrasthir]

But then that it would be V that has the tracker.

[Terros]

Yes, cause he'd most likely be the one who goes to retrieve it.

[Alphonse]

I think every sword has a different abiliety.

[Ultima Star]

...another thing to talk about^_^
Well what about if each sword has different powers like let's say...one has the power of water then the other the power of fire and so on^^

[Alphonse]

Yeah! Each sword has a type of element and different kind of power!

[Ultima Star]

It'd be way too cool, but perhaps if they join together into one BIG sowrd then perhaps it'd be a whole lot more powerful^_^

[Alphonse]

Yeah! That would be cool but fans will say "Hey! WTF??!?!! They riped off Cloud!" so I dont really think that will happen.

[Ultima Star]

Well..for me it's a pretty good idea.^_^

[Alphonse]

Yeah! Dont get me wrong! I think its an awesome idea but their is more fans out ther.

[Ultima Star]

i know I'm the only fan, that's for sure:nod:
But i mean what is so wrong in putting all the swords together:blink:

[Alphonse]

Nothing at all. Forget about it. I think it would be badass!

[Ultima Star]

Cos now we would be the ones that do it :dance:

[Alphonse]

Yeah! That would ba an awesome move to do in the game!

[Ultima Star]

COMBOS!! YAAY combos:dance:

[Alphonse]

Yeah! Go Combos! lol

[Ultima Star]

YES Combos combos O.o I'm dizzy now

[Interficio Nocte]

i know I'm the only fan, that's for sure:nod:
But i mean what is so wrong in putting all the swords together:blink:

Nothing! That would be awesome!:dance:

[Ultima Star]

OH! thanks L-A...you agree with me :dance:

[Interficio Nocte]

Your welcome. *bows to the phantom*

[Ultima Star]

phantom? what phantom? :blink:

[Interficio Nocte]

You are the phantom....

[Ultima Star]

Why am I the phantom?:blink:

[Alphonse]

Because he siad you are.lol Well wouldent it be cool if you............. im out of ideas for the moment.

[Terros]

I sense this topic taking a turn towards life support.

[Alphonse]

LOL How is that Terros?

[Terros]

Aren't we suppose to be talking about the swords? There's not really much to say, other than there's a lot of them, they're all different. We don't really know much about his weapons...

[Alphonse]

True. Were are just saying anything that popes in our heads.

[Ultima Star]

Ok Terros this is what happened I said "Hey how about if he joins all his sowrds into a BIG one"..and then Cloud said that it'd be cool but perhaps some fans are not gonna like it cos it'd be a copy of cloud...then L-A say that'd be cool :dance: then he said *bows to the phantom* and I just asked why am I the phantom...:blink:

[Alphonse]

Okay. Good summary.XD Well come on!

[Ultima Star]

Yeah, a good resume indeed XD

Well..I still think that it'd be cool that all of them join together into one big sword:dance:

[Interficio Nocte]

Who gives a shit if it copies Clouds swords, it is awesome. :dance:

BTW Ultima: You are a phantom because you are not here at my computer and I had to bow to SOMETHING.....;)

[Ultima Star]

Well yeah who cares if it's like what Cloud does...Man if that happens it's gonna be awesome:dance:

PS:..you had to bow to something?:huh:

[Alphonse]

Offcourse it would! I wonder how it would look like if it happened?

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

*too lazy to quote* I think the idea is cool...the copying Cloud thingy :P

[lathandien]

When i first saw that screen with all the swords it reminded me of Auron's Masamune for some reason. xD I think cos the middle one looks a little like it. I hope they dont all lock into one like AC. I wouldnt like them reusing such an original idea. :/

lol.. it sorta looked like the masamune. i agree, i dont like the idea of combining them, but they dont look like they even COULD combine into one.

Some don't even look like swords. I think maybe one or two were spears but I have bad eyes. The swords do differ a lot though especially the ones with the long handles

they were lances (i doint know if theres an actual difference) spears, and swords. mostly swords.

No I don't think that they will combine but maybe you can switch from one to another in battle. Maybe the farther you get in the game the more you get to use and with each one you gain a bunch of new abilities.

ya maybe they will. that would be cool.


I think that if you have a different combination of weapons, like in your hand then the effect will be different. like if you have this sword and that sword you can do so and so, if you only use one at a time you lose this and gain that. THAT would be awsome.

You done it now. Tried to correct me when I already corrected myself. We know about the diverse weapon armada and not all of them are swords "mostly" like you said are but there just so happen to be a handful of other weapons in that group. Shit he probably gets more than what was shown in the first place. And no the ones with the long handle were swords if not awkwardly made spears (which i doubt) than lances. Only two actual pike and jousting lance made weapons can be seen.

[lathandien]

They'll be using this in the FF7 sequel. Which is obviously going to be made.
dont you mean remake...

sorry desi... my mistake

[Ultima Star]

I put the video in slow motion!:dance:
I analized it several times and I count all of the weapons.
There are 11 weapons, 5 by the left, 5 by the right and one in front of him.
There are spears, swords, I managed to see the engine sword, a small sword but it kinda looks like a gun, like four or three sabers, and some other kinds of swords

[Desi]

Or you could have looked at the pictures on page 2?

[Ultima Star]

Well..I wanted to do that and I didn't know there were pictures on page 2 I wasn't here when that happened XD

[Interficio Nocte]

I like the twin daggers....and I doubt he will use a bow.

[Alphonse]

I like the ............... its hard.

[Desi]

Well..I wanted to do that and I didn't know there were pictures on page 2 I wasn't here when that happened XDBut the point of posting in a thread is to read the whole thread. 1) You can find the answer to a question. 2) You won't repeat the something that has already been said.

[Alphonse]

This thread is runing out of ideas.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Yup, I think we should stop posting (if no more new ideas is thought of) before any new info is released so we can keep this thread open ^_^

[Alphonse]

Okay.. People stop spamming around. Dont get banned. Well wouldent it be awesome if he could switch swords with the push of a botten in battle?

[Ultima Star]

I think that now it's not likely that he will join all of his words together:(

[Alphonse]

It could be possible! If this game is going to have kinda the same battle system of KH2 thats cool but it will need "upgrades" and other additions!

[Ultima Star]

Oh yeah you're right (Cloud is right :ohmy:)
But I really liked that idea^_^

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Yeah! If he put all his swords together... imagine how heavy it would be ;)

[Alphonse]

Oh yeah you're right (Cloud is right :ohmy:)
But I really liked that idea^_^


I know! It kinda surprises me too!XD Yeah! Nice idea hu!?

[Desi]

I know! It kinda surprises me too!XD Yeah! Nice idea hu!?
Your idea is nothing new. There has already been talk of upgrading the weapons.

[Alphonse]

I whas talking about the the gameplay man!

[Desi]

Let me repeat myself. Your idea is nothing new there has already been people comparing the system to Kingdom Hearts.

[Alphonse]

Damn! Sorry about that then!

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

It's okay, Cloud :) Always good to repeat good ideas sometimes :D

[Alphonse]

Well thank you! Really! I didnt know.

[XxFeaRLeSsxX]

Well thank you! Really! I didnt know.

To tell you the truth.... neither did I :ohmy:

... Thanks for telling me :D

[Yurian]

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, or whether it was so obvious that nobody bothered to, but I just noticed: the weapons are made of crystal.

Going off the many times Versus Guy summons the weapons in the CLOUD DVD trailer, it seems as though everytime the they're summoned or hit by bullets a flurry of crystal 'powder' is whisked through the air. Indeed, when they're materialized they're transparent.

Forgive my terrible wording; I'm still kinda sleepy.

Yea.
Heres a prime example, when he pulls he sword from the building this gush of crystal dust just comes from it.

I think he will keep the same weapons the whole game and just upgrade his abilities.

And he must be able to form the crystal around the air or something because I think that when he makes the barriers that is his weapons also, just in some other form.

That would be great!

[Whiplash]

The more I see of this game the more the gameplay reminds me of DMC (or Rygar!), the barrier will be an R1/L1 block :cunning:

[Firewolf]

so does he get to have all those weapons in the begining of the game

[Dark Remnant]

I doubt that very much.

You'll either start with one and build your arsenal up or you'll start with them all for one level and then something bad happens that will cause you to lose them all and then you'll have to rebuild your arsenal.

It's a typical situation.

[Terros]

At this point we don't know what he'll start with, because we don't know at what point in the games time line this battle takes place, if it's even happening at all --> as stated in other threads he may be dreaming this battle.

[Dark Remnant]

Of all the footage we've seen, I doubt much of it will be in the final product - if any at all. If any of it does I should think it would probably be cut up into small segments and added into the opening sequence or something.

He could start with all or most of them but the moves he can do with them are limited. Probably not but it's a possibility.

Um..I doubt this will be the opening sequence like I said..we need an introduction to the world and not to a fight straight we need to know how this crystal thing is and al that stuff...now that brings another question if this not t he opening sequence then maybe the one with t he charaters is? and yeah all of this being a dream and then the male character waking him up or something of that sort....

He could start with all or most of them but the moves he can do with them are limited. Probably not but it's a possibility.

It's totally logical...gaining abilities..that's what we do in FF lol

[Whiplash]

And of course he'd get strength and defence power-ups throughout the game.

[Ultima Star]

And then the usual..finding a super powerful weapon throughtout the game :cunning:
OR...join all the swords together like Cloud did..:shifty:

[Dark Vincent]

It could be something like FFV for all we know, back there each Crystal shard represented a Job Class. For this one, each shard could represent a weapon 8D

[Ultima Star]

Back there's only one Crystal..or..;;>_> I forgot it's been a while I havent posted here agh.

[Terros]

There is only one crystal and we don't know what form it's in, Nomura said it wouldn't be what we conventionally think of as a crystal, so it may not even be able to be shattered. It could be like the Jumi from Legend of mana, they were people with large a jewel on their chests. The jewel functioned as their "heart".

[Harbinger]

Hi. I'm new here. By the way, Nomura said that the crystal is in a chamber behind Mr. Badass's throne.
oh, what weapon are you all most interestedin using (there's a whol load, from the engine sword, to the double sword, a halberd, great sword and even a gun)?

[Terros]

I want to use that engine sword.

[Firewolf]

i wonder what kinda attacks u can use with the engine

[SinGabrynth]

I saw 4 swords(with engines), 1 lance, 2 gun-blades, a twin-sided sword sort of shaped like a boomerang, an axe, an axe-like spear, and two machine guns.

[SinGabrynth]

I made that sword in CGI as soon as I saw it. I was drooling. But I hope that this game won't be one of those games where the characters are more badass in the cutscenes than in the actual gameplay.

[SinGabrynth]

That double-bladed one hand sword on the top left also seems like a gun to me.

[[teehee]

Ugh use the edit button instead of triple posting. :/

[Whiplash]

This is a topic about multiple swords not multiple posts.


...I'm sorry but I couldn't resist.

[ukillwegrill]

Ugh use the edit button instead of triple posting. :/
Quite fickel eh does it really matter if he posted consecutive posts as long as their all relevent to the discussion:|

[[teehee]

It's irritating and it's against the rules. :cookie: Hardly much to ask either.

[XwingsofaresX]

looking at the new scans, i looked at 2nd to last scan with the prince and white robed guy fighting. by the looks of it, he probably would be able to "clone" his weapons. what do you guys think?

[OmiVersusXIV]

[steeld]

[Naunen]

----Yeah. Halberds too it appears. :ohmy:

[Rev-SQ]

Only brutes use axes and only grunts use spears. The REAL men use swords. And a submachine gun here and there.:aldo:

[OmiVersusXIV]

has he used any of the other weapons in the Jump festa or TGS trailers

[steeld]

ya in slow motion you can see him throw an axe :O

[OmiVersusXIV]
