Waitaminute... you mean to tell me that Road to Rome is a professionaly-developed game and Desert Combat isn't??!!! GADZOOKS!!
I'm very well aware of that fact, and I even pointed it out. But it does not matter if it's a professionally developed game or not. If it's released by the same company as an official expansion then that's what it is. Anyone who thinks that Desert Combat is not Battlefield needs to get their head examined (like you, ABF). It is most certainly not the same deal as Wolfenstein and Quake 3. The only thing those games share is the Quake 3 engine, and nothing else. If you can't tell the difference between an expansion and a completely different game that uses the same engine then you've got a serious problem there.
