Age of Wushu Gets a Facelift With Tempest of Strife Expansion

By Michael Dunaway, News Editor Posted: April 23, 2014

"Age of Wushu 2.0" is how Game Director Hao Han describes the game's upcoming free expansion, Tempest of Strife. With new features like weather and dynamic events and school betrayals, and six new classes, including the "sinister evil" Rootless Clan, there should be plenty to keep fans of the martial-arts sandbox MMO happy.

Tempest of Strife also revamps the game's graphics and mechanics and lets players change their appearance via facelift surgery -- perfect for creating a new identity after committing your latest dastardly crime.

The expansion comes to Age of Wushu on May 7.

Yes, the publisher is not excellent but Snail USA is no worse than Nexon, Gpotato or PWI and the game is no worse than other free MMO from Korea/China. What it does is something very different than the traditional MMO.

People always say the game is below average but they forget to mention it has some very interesting points like the ability to learn other school(class, if you wish) skills, the break form the holy trinity of healer,dps,control or the open world PVP. The ability to teleport to every part of the game world from the start without fear of being slaughtered by mobs, Large (300+) PVP battles on week-ends, tournaments every weekdays, player driven economy, etc.

If your sick of the traditional reskinned "Pick From 6 classes and 5 races to adventure in a world with cliche fantasy lore" MMO then i suggest you give this a try. The new expansion will change the power distribution of the high level players, forcing them to level sideway (roughly same power but more options) or even down to access new content, making it a perfect time for new player to start.

Played this game, but yea im never going back. i had like 400liang at one point(if i remember right) apparently at the time that was a lot to me. I logged back in & i had no money left.

The hackers or bots just get away & they have bad customer service.

It is not the publisher, or updates, the game is crap from the start. Always has been always will be. Jet Li is a douche for promoting this piece of garbage excuse for any type of game.
