BioShock 2 Multiplayer Loading Screen Quotes

While BioShock 2 Multiplayer matches load up, the player is treated to a number of loading screen quotes, which offer tips about the game but also some unique Rapture lore that can't be found elsewhere. They are newspaper's headlines from the Rapture Standard about the events during the Civil War all along the year 1959 to the beginning of BioShock in 1960, but also comments from Rapture's people about these events or their own misadventures. Each reached Rank unlocks one or two new quotes from rank 1 to 40.
