[bf1942] Official WW2 mod for BFV, server files?

[Andreas Fredriksson]

Just to clear up any confusion:

The Canada office made some of the free content maps for BF1942, but all the patch code (versions 1.31-1.6) was written by my patch team in Stockholm.

Vietnam was written entirely in Canada with some last-minute crunch help from my team.

Excuse me for having to correct you here, but it's DICE Canada who is making 
the BF1942 patches, so I'd say stx has a valid argument.
I will not comment any further on the matter, as it just makes me sad which 
will make me start drinking, driving, getting busted for DUI, thrown in 
jail, losing my job and finally dieing, homeless, in the gutter.
