What is an XORG?MMORPGFPS? FPSMMORPG? Screw it, those are too hard to pronounce! It's a new game concept, so it deserves a new acronym! "XORG" stands for Extreme Online Roleplaying Game, a hybrid between MMORPGs and FPSs. An XORG has depth, persistence, expansiveness, adrenaline pumping action, graphics detail, and realism all at the same time :)

How many people can play Twilight War at once?Twilight War worlds can each sustain thousands. Each world is an instance of the game, and each of these instanced worlds is independent. You choose which world cluster to play in. Back to top
How many characters can I have at one time?Each player account can maintain multiple characters, though only one character can be played at a time. Characters “live” on a specific world cluster selected during the login process. Once a character is created, it can only be moved to another world cluster by requesting the change from the developer via online account management. These requests will be filled depending on the current server populations, as we do not want any one server to be overloaded. Back to top

How much influence and power will player clans have? What things can they do/own?Player clans will have all the organizational advantages that any organized group will have, assisting in-game by a clan-only chat channel. Clans can form alliances with other player clans and clans can conduct wars between themselves that will override other faction concerns.
Clans will be able to take out bounties on outlaws that attack their clan members, and they will eventually be able to own clan fortresses (though this may not make release, it will be added in an update). Fortresses are essentially small towns, with lodgings for clan members and some shops and repair facilities which can be added, along with NPC guards. Back to top
Community being critical, what key goals do you have in this area for both in-game and out of game support? Yes, community is very important. We will have customer support in-game in the form of GMs, and out of game in some fashion that is to be determined. We will also be linking some of the in-game data to our game website, and may even allow other sites to link to the data directly. This will allow players to obtain data on their characters outside the game, to communicate to other players that are online but not in-game, and allow player clans to collect and display membership data direct from the game database.

What will be punishments for Terms of Service (TOS) Violations?There will be strict punishments for TOS violations, such as forced character imprisonment, account suspension, and account termination, depending on the severity and number of violations. There can be little leeway to TOS violations, since we don't have the manpower to belabor each case. However, the TOS can't dictate how people act in the game, as that would not be practically enforceable. The TOS will enforce punishments for cheats, naming conventions, fraud (real, not in-game), in-game property rights (i.e. selling stuff on ebay), and the like. Back to top
