Trivia

EULA

Normally, when a setup is run, the user is presented with the EULA (End-User License Agreement) and has to click Yes if they agree and understand it. But this game's EULA hides strange entries:

To display your license agreement, replace the License.txt file currently located in the Language Independent\Operating System Independent folder of the Setup Files pane.

NOTE: The text in your license file should contain hard returns after lines with more than 1,024 characters."

This would imply that the user needs to burn a copy of the disc to read the EULA from within the setup program. It was likely an error in assembling the installer, with the notes meant for the staff member assigned to it.

Online servers

The game's online servers which were hosted on GameSpy were scheduled to shut down on 31 May 2014 in the wake of GameSpy's total closure.

The Steam version was updated with Steamworks multiplayer on 16 March 2015.
