Story
"2006: The U.S. installs a temporary military base on East Timor to train the developing defense force of the "world's youngest democracy." Resistance to the U.S. military presence in Southeast Asia is widespread and passionate, but the threat Indonesian militias pose to Timorese democracy is deemed sufficient justification. Anti-U.S. resentment comes to a head under the leadership of guerrilla militia leader Suhadi Sadono, acting with the unofficial support of major corrupt factions of the Indonesian government. Suhadi's men attack and occupy the U.S. Embassy in Dili, East Timor, taking dozens of civilian and military personnel hostage.
Sam Fisher must defend and assist the U.S. military, both locally and from remote locations, until Suhadi's terror-driven policies can be subverted and the guerrilla faction eradicated.
Multiplayer
Pandora Tomorrow adds a multiplayer component to the series in an attempt to take advantage of the features and popularity of Xbox Live. Both the PlayStation 2 and PC versions of the game also come with multiplayer, however, the GameCube version does not since commercially the system is unable of going online. The game pits the heavily armed mercenaries (first-person view) against the stealthy spies (third-person view). The total number of players in each multiplayer game is limited to 4.
Pandora Tomorrow features 3 multiplayer gametypes:
- Neutralization — In Neutralization spies attempt to deactivate the virus devices, or ND133's. The mercenaries attempt to protect the devices.
- Extraction — The extraction gametypes goal is to locate the ND133K, remove the tubes, then bring it to the extraction point.
- Sabotage — In sabotage, the goal is to place a modem on a wall near an ND133K. When the timer on the modem stops the ND133K will be neutralized.
