HomeLan Fed has posted an interview with Randy Pitchford from over at Gearbox talking about Counter-Strike: Condition Zero. Condition Zero will offer single player content as well as multiplayer enhancements. JCal asks about the existance of a storyline in CZ, the new missions we can expect, AI, additional weapons, new characters, gameplay enhancements, Gooseman's involvement and more. Here's a bit on what we can expect on the multiplayer side of things

HomeLAN - Will there be any enhancements in Condition's Zero's multiplayer online mode and will those enhancements make their way to the mod version of CS?
Randy Pitchford - The new characters have about a 75% increase in polygonal detail and those will be available for multiplayer as a High Definition Pack for Counter-Strike. There are also some technology improvements like alpha blending with models, level of detail for performance and a new materials based feedback system that will be added to the game as well. Additionally, all of the new weapons and game play features will be available to Counter-Strike should server operators wish to take advantage of them. ...
