    Joe Kucan mentioned a bit about RA2 in his ama (C&P)
    I have a real fondness in my heart for RA2 - it was a fun set and a hectic time. We had a greenscreen, a 2 backlots and a full stage set that we rotated to serve as the oval office, the Russian premier's HQ and the war-room. It was a dynamic, fun-filled time! And I was much thinner then, so that was nice too.

    Such an awesome game that I still play today (2024). Buy sadly the pushed hard making everything 3D that wasn't appealing at least to me... I think that was EA Games after they bough Westwood if I'm not mistaken.

    Those 3 men, were master minds, but E...A.... just has to stick its dirty fingers in everything, WE NEED THEM BACK, everything after this was shit, Generals was fun, but It wasn't CQC, I want Aftermath back, I want what was so special in 1999
