Pulse (Members Only)

Sword of the New World is different from other MMORPGs in that the player can control multiple characters in a single gaming session. Up to three characters can be used in a party. Any member of the party can be selected to lead the other characters or act alone at any time throughout the game. The other two characters can be commanded to follow or attend the lead character as the party moves through a given area.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Sword of the New World is an action-packed tactical fantasy MMORPG set in a world of colonial exploration inspired by Europe’s exploration of America. Delve into a visually stunning world, join or create a clan and claim colonies, and choose a side in a political struggle. Players can even have the ability to become the representative of one of the political parties that are constantly vying for power. Sword of the New World offers exploration and discovery in a world of political conflict and danger.

GAME FEATURES:

Multi Character Control - Control up to three unique characters at once, each with their own statistics, skills, and levels
Stance Leveling System - Master your characters’ strengths through stances to unlock new skills and abilities. Increase your skill with your weapon as your stance level increases.
Prestige - Each one of your characters is devoted to the family you have created. As your characters rise in level, so too will your family level, granting additional buffs and prestige.
Massive PvP - Fight alongside your clan mates for control of the many colonies that lay unclaimed in the New World. The more colonies your clan controls, the more power you wield. Regularly held GM-run PvP events also add to the mix in fighting for honor and prizes.
Political System - Two political powers are vying for control of the New World, with player elected leaders for each side. Join the Royalists, devoted to colonizing for the old world, or the Republicans who wish to break free and create a world of their own.

Oh man. Who's the horny programmer that left the joke code in the final product?

MMOsite.com is reporting on a rather strange Sword of the New World bug: some players claim that their clothing was deleted and their avatars were naked on the night of October 20th. You would think that the inappropriate bits wouldn't be modeled on the characters, but if you view the screenshots, it seems they mostly are.

A Korean MMOG Worth Playing?

games xtreme has taken a look at the Korean MMOG Sword of the New World:

When I receive an e-mail telling me that I’ve been invited to play a port of a Korean MMORPG I get filled with a sense of dread (Codemasters I’m looking in your direction). Simply put Korean style games don’t appeal to a wide western audience. I got that familiar feeling when I received my invite to play Sword of the New World.
