BC2:Vietnam and BF1943?

[K0NFUSION]

Will you guys be offering servers for these two upcoming games? Most likely Vietnam, but not sure about 1943.

PS.
Server's still running great! (PrecisionClan) It was cool to read that you guys originated in Seattle. Most of our clan is in that area. Guess I picked a good server location too

Thanks.

Yes, we should be able to offer servers for both these games .

I love it here in Seattle. Although it'd be nice if it was a bit less rainy.

For those of us who already have BC2 servers, Vietnam would simply be more (newer) maps added to our existing server correct ?

Any word on this yet ?

I'm sorry, I must have missed this before!

I'll ask DICE.

DICE isn't able to provide details on the Vietnam expansion yet.

Personally I would expect it would be new servers as it is more than new maps, it is new player and vehicle models, new weapons, new sprites, sounds, new accomplishments probably, etc. If they add to the existing program it would be a huge set of files and would have to be done through a game mode somehow? Seems to me it would be too big that way. Guess we'll see when they get closer to releasing though.

The Vietnam is just an expansion, ie a mod, of the current game. So yes you could in theory run the same box with it modified IF Dice codes it that way.

Otherwise it would be horrible to have people rent a new server for just a few maps, and reskinned players/ models.
