    Fun fact: Resources were done by putting an invisible tank on an invisible repair pad. When you tried to do something with resources, it dealt damage to the tank. If the tank exploded, you didn't have enough resources.

    You know, it's somehow pretty awesome that the game survived so long, and looks so good, too. I think that's just a testament to it being a great game, and a great vision.

    Interestingly, those loading screens have flavour text instead of tips. I wonder if any of that lore survived?

    ? Are those snippets taken from megel's story? Is that what you're saying?

    Or are you saying lore in general exists? Because I know that :p

    Ah seen, fair enough. I never did get all the way through Megel's spiel. Almost, though! :p

    I can't find any download link for free BF1942, all the links are dead and the page for it just says the game is discontinued.
    EA changed their minds maybe?
