    To tell if a game should have lore or not, look at what genre it is:



    Answer: no, ya dummy.

    Look around the maps. There is a lot of mystery surrounding some parts of them.

    There is no lore, its a sandbox game. Maybe when the campaign gets released there might be "lore", but until then there is no lore only easter eggs.

    Ok, it maybe be a physics simulation game but it couldn't hurt to write some dumb little lore on it. :rolleyes:

    Well I don't know if it's really lore but beamng has the vehicle brands and cars that are different from real life versions. And here real life MOMO is called nomi and so on...
    Beamng replicates vehicles from the same time period but they have different names and are modeled differently.

    But what maps have lore related things in them?
    EDIT: I guess the creepy cabin in ECA but is there anything else than that?

    Well I'd say small island USA and JRI may need a bit of explaining as to why there are even proper paved roads on them...

    In 1985, the Ror government declared war on Small Island, back then a bustling town with smooth roads, and it had much more landmass.
    After a few months of fighting, Ror decided to nuke them. The fallout from the bomb destroyed the buildings, and damaged the roads. It made Small Island uninhabitable for the next 1,000,000 years. Over the years, the water has submerged most of the island, leaving only the top of a mountain.

    JRI: In 1933, the BeamNG government took over the Hwaina Islands. Among them was the big, Jungle Rock Island. However, the island was evacuated and forgotten following RoR's bombing of Gem Harbor in 1941.
    In 1995, people came back, and now we are currently rebuilding the island.

    Hmm. Maybe not, but there's plenty of things that have no clear explanation...

    You can't say what other people care about. You can never know. For example, I care about this.

    And most of us don't. Put this in the roleplay group where it belongs.

    We should probably stop this thread before it turns into a flame war.
