I was on the beta for BF1942 for abour 3 or 4 months. I've had enough Wake Island to last me a lifetime and then some. I'd rather see a Desert Combat map ported over; say, Battle of 73 Eastings or whatever that map was that was the small village by the lake (US on the far side of the lake, Iraqis in control of the village).
