NOLF2 Add-on & MP Plans
[Mar 08, 2003, 2:33 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments

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.

I know what you're saying (regarding the micromanagement in Sim games), however, this was never necessary in ANY of the previous three SimCities. Therefore, to have SimCity 4 all of a sudden change from a City Builder into a City SIMULATOR came, I'm sure, as a very big surprise to a lot of people.

Had Maxis had the common decency to warn people about this beforehand, it would have saved them a lot of angry gamers on their forum.

As for playing a Harm operative doing really wacky stuff, it sounds fun, but how long is that angle going to hold? It's going to be funny the first time through, for a few levels or so, and then it will get really old really fast (imho)...
