NOLF2 Add-on & MP Plans

There's an article on future plans for No One Lives Forever on GameSpy with word on plans at Monolith for future releases of both a tool package and an expansion pack for No One Lives Forever 2, their spy shooter sequel. There are scant details on the add-on, except that it's expected before the end of this year, and that it will put players in the role of one of the bad guys, rather than as Cate Archer. What they have to say about plans for a free multiplayer patch is more concrete, including word it is expected within the next couple of weeks. Here's the deal:
The “first big release” (as Monolith put it) is a huge NOLF2 multiplayer patch which will be released within a week or two, adding deathmatch, team deathmatch, and a new gameplay mode called Doomsday. The patch should contain over 10 maps, many based on NOLF2 single-player levels (including Siberia, Japan, and Khios), but including large pieces of original architecture as well.

Creston: "Sorry, didn't mean to change the thread topic, but it does seem these days that either games are dumbed down to appeal to the masses (Helllllooooo Freelancer!), or are made more complex in an attempt to become deeper, but are totally fucked up in the process (and welcome to you, SimCity 4!)."

Two things: 1. Poor interface (a good one takes a lot of the aggravation out of it) and, one of the great problems of real life management technique, 2. micromanagement. Unfortunately, the desire to do the latter is built into a sim game... and probably has as much to do with the players who enjoy those games as it does with the developers.
