AW: [bf1942] Where can i DL

[Chicken]

A petition is not going to hurt anyone or anything. If anything signing it
just shows that you have an interest and you never know, it might light a
fire under someone's ass. However if you want to stand behind your soccer
mom, ribbons for everyone, we don't want anyone's feelings to be hurt
position then that is your right, but you have to be living in a world of
ignorant bliss to not see why several people are quite pissed off.

I personally am paying for a dedicated server, 200 bucks a month, pretty
much all money and effort spent pissing in the wind.

EA has my $$ I paid for the game, they are making money, the lnxded server
is not a charitable effort, but it sure seems like it.

Okay, I'm confused. There isn't a "RTR Server" for Windows. RTR is 
essentially just a mod that EA released. You can currently use it under 
Linux the same way you can use Desert Combat or any other mod.

I personally am hoping we get a 1.31 server real soon. I've got a 64 
person LAN party in less than 2 weeks that depends on it.

It seems the only problem we have here is that EA suprised Ryan with a 
point release but I am sure he is off working on it. I will not go sign 
some petition just because somebody says to. Especially with 
misinformation like the comment about RTR. I think Ryan and EA are doing 
a great job. It sure would be nice to have a little more communication 
from Ryan but as a coder I can accept that communication probably isn't 
very high on his TODO list.

So, I would just like to say this, before we all run off and sign a 
petition to EA that could cause more problems than it is worth. Please 
remember that Ryan already tasked with doing what you are asking EA to 
do. They could just decide that he isn't doing a good enough job or that 
it just isn't worth the effort and pull the plug on the whole thing. So 
why don't we just give it some more time and actually see what the guy 
doing the work has to say about the whole thing.
