Men of War: Red Tide Demo Released
Once billed as a standalone expansion to Men of War but described today by publisher 1C Company as a sequel, Red Tide recreates World War II's Black Sea Campaigns across more than twenty missions starring the Soviet "Black Coats."
Red Tide is currently available from a variety of digital distribution outlets, and will be included in the Men of War Gold Edition hitting North American shops December 1.

No multiplayer content what so ever in this expansion as far as I'm aware. It also wasn't developed by the original devs and instead was a cash-in on the publishers behalf, the devs barely even knew anything about it!!
Whereas Digitalmindsoft (the original developers) are working on a proper expansion :) Myself and my buddies cannot wait. Coop on MoW is one of the most enjoyable coop experiences in gaming to date, it really is that awesome.-

No, it was done by an internal 1C team. Best Way is the engine and tech team, and Digitalmindsoft is more scenario/multiplayer. The upcoming multiplayer expansion A4 or Heroes Badge/Assault Squad is the first more fully Digitalmindsoft release. They're even remodelling a ton of the units for that, although the engine tech is still handled by Best Way.

Best Way developed the equally excellent Soldiers: Heroes of WW2 and Faces of War using the same engine, to clarify - so they are capable. More impressive is how well DMS have continued their work.
Let's not discredit anyone for these games - all involved parties have had a positive influence and done good work. If you like it, go join the Digital Mindsoft community - I only arrived recently, but their support for community mods is.. impressive.
