Frequentlyasked questions So, thereare a lot of questions going around the Community I'm going to list a fewanswers to your questions here. The top 3 asked questions of this week are: How comeSPECACT hasn't been made available for PC? SPECACT was causing issues with the last update so we made the decisionto roll back the SPECACT changes so we could release important crash fixes andother features. SPECACT is still planned for release on PC. Are new maps coming for BFBC2 in the future? Vietnam will bring more maps to BC2. Map Pack 6 is due for release nextweek. There will be more information on the maps coming for Vietnam the closerwe get to a release date. What is the status of BF 1943? It was released on consoles, but is itcoming to PC? We have no new information at this point. When we do, we will be happyto share it with the Community.
