The Agency HQ (http://theagency.massivehq.com) has posted part 2 of their interview with Hal Milton, lead designer of The Agency.
[00G] Since Operatives level, what is incentive to collect more than your roster can hold? What is the incentive to swap a long time operative out for a new one?
[HM] ...We will even have a limited number that are duds. Players will be able to tell based upon their code name. So if you get an op named Butterfingers who is a stealth operative, he is probably not actually a guy that you will want to keep until the end. However, he is somebody that you may want to keep around for a bit, in case you get an assignment that you want to burn an operative on.
