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

[brammes]

I gave you 2 names of the top producers in the bf
series ... how hard can it be to find their email
addresses?

anyways, I thought about it a bit more and I think
it's a waste of time to even ask them to consider.
You don't have any valuable marketing arguments ...
don't forget they sold about 4 milion copies of the
bf42 game ... nothing can beat that, no argument that
I can think of, to make another patch, especially with
BF2 in the pipeline, they will never delay that game
for the 'old' one ... .
