I think they're adding a new side, the AlienCows, to fend off....their pastures...?
Anyways rumour has it its something to do with Marine V Marine /Alien V Alien, but no one really knows.... <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

The next big thing for NS is 'Natural Mating Selection'
Bassically, you put down your guns and instead display mating rituals for the opposite species.
The Aliens will have a multitute of upgrades; pheromones, unique noises and colouful flashing mating displays.
The Marines will have to woo the Aliens with a number of different ways;
Wrestling other marines to prove their strength, drinking contests and who can sing the best on karaoke.
Once a parter has been found the mating will commence and new alien/hybrid species will be formed. The aim of the game is to see who can create the greatest variety of offspring in a given time.

The Mapping forum has some MvM maps. Go there to check them out.
If I remember correctly, there were two settings for Hambone Mode. One would cause players to lose all upgrades upon death (but not experience points, so they could re-upgrade). The other was also referred to as Ironman Mode, and would cause players to lose all experience and upgrades upon death.

Ironman was in before Hambone mode was.

You actually got the name for IronMan mode right.
But it's exactly like CS, once you are dead, you stay dead.
