Perhaps the menu music should carry over to the map loading screen? It's a small suggestion but it's an extra thing to ocupy the player while they're waiting to join the server (in addition to the 2.0 loading screens) If you really want to go the extra mile you could find somone to make a seperate map loading song.
i agree. this is a good suggestion. you know how if you run empires with "-no video" then the start video doesn't play? well i know that doesn't work but anyway would it be possible to have "-no start music", so i could make a seperate shortcut that when im listening to music i can put empires on without having the music interrupt me. i'm just getting picky now.
