Defiance's Third DLC: The 7th Legion

[crasher]

This may be pretty cool depending on how they do it.

and mmmmmmmm bacon ��

1.) Not even a little.

2.) yes, of course.

calling out "Hover-bikes" as new vehicle

why not? You have ZERO details yet, so how so you know they aren't going to provide a decent chunk of storyline and even mix this in with von Bach coming back somehow. That would be cool imo!

At least the first DLC lore was making sense, everything else was badly done, but the lore was interesting (albeit very short). And it was fresh. A lot more than samurai at least.

I would like to see a DLC that gets more involved with the Thorn Liro. They look interesting.

Trion, what are your plans for all the bug repairs and connection issues from the first 2 DLC's?
Waiting for all DLC's to be released for a compiled list first?

Seriously you need to fix all the broken stuff before you go adding more broken stuff....
Not saying DLC 3 will be broken, but your track record sucks.

Now this is the dictionary definition of the phrase: "putting it mildly".

1.) Somebody pulled this storyline and combination of memes out of their butt, and they were probably sleep deprived or suffering from egg-nog overdose at the time.
2.) Canadian Bushido coincidentally lead by a guy who just happens to have a Japanese name but may/may-not actually be Japanese with/without Japanese military background in the absence of an actual 'Japan', since the fall of nations....
3.) Following a very intricate 'Bushido Code' which is a life-long philosophy very intricate in detail known to few in the general population....
4.) Which has been marginalized by society in general....
5.) Yet they found enough Bushido Masters to train a seriously non-select group of people who couldn't possibly automatically be Bushido-material from random crowds of vagrants and hangers-on in settlements on their way across Canada, while presumably losing few enough 'trained Bushido adherents' through combat on the journey while training new random followers while on that march to swell their ranks...
6.) In that same discipline that takes devout adherents a lifetime to master....
7.) And exhumed/followed by a completely different culture in a totally different culture...
8.) But something as simple as a Christmas wreath/Menorah/etc over a midwinter solstice time frame is too complicated to even hint at because what? It was too complicated? The tradition followed by Euro-centric civilization since just after the European based neanderthals started winter solstice/yule celebration was lost in 100 years, but we still drive cars and wear pants?

"Originally Posted by Defiance Blog When the world fell apart, one group kept their courage. Guided by the teachings of the Code of Bushido, the soldiers of the 7th Legion marched across Canada gathering survivors as they went. From one outpost to another they marched until finally they found a city which did not fall: Manhattan. There, they made their stand against the darkness, and Commander Yoshida Hiro called an end to their long journey. Now they have come to Paradise. What dread news could this herald?"

9.) If their journey ended on the East Coast in Manhattan, what are they doing in San Francisco?
9.a) Paradise was just a random destination? Because nobody from E-Rep/Manhattan has shown the slightest interest in looking for V.B. in all this time.
10.) How did they manage to settle business in Manhattan so quickly and hustle out to Paradise so quickly if they were in pursuit of Von Bach or his goals?
11.) If the E-Rep is already here, why are the Bushido Canadians here, too?
12.) If they're here in opposition to Von Bach's goals, how were they so comfortable in Manhattan with the E-REP there for the time they were there settled in (Commander Yoshida Hiro called an end to their long journey.)
13.) If they were a force to be reconned with in Manhattan, Then surely they were a part of E-REP or an opponent to E-Rep, and either of those two negates them from suddenly being a surprise discovery at this point to us as E-Rep affiliated Arkhunters.

And TRION still hasn't explained the Volge (as discussed by my friends at KTAM), or fixed the bugs in the log-in or staying on-line for our PS3/XboX brothers and sisters so they can play the game they paid good money in good faith for?

Should I go on, or would somebody like to pick up the thread for me?

Nobody has yet put a post together quite so... well worded as to why 7th Legion will suck balls.

But then again, Trion likes putting out stuff that makes no sense.

Kudos to you.

Stop exposing all of these plot holes, crasher! The story lines are still being written ..

But seriously - all the points and holes you bring up are totally valid and demand an answer. What IS going on with the Volge? Are we still fighting them? Were we EVER fighting them aside from specific instances and a short story line? Are they going away? Are they going on vacation? Are the Volge going to fight with the Canadian Samurais? I'm so confused.

[Bonehead]

The plot is at least as well reasoned as the grenade changes.

QFT. Screenshotted, it might be an alternate signature for me.
