Congrats on this beta release, would setup a server with this :>
Edit: Also I'm wondering if they are Rush mode compatible?
Edit 2: Thanks for the answer below, and I just figured out I've asked a stupid question since I've set up a server before ._.

Well done!

not use same game on EA servers

If you not changed old maps and other files, why you did not allow to use the same game on EA servers?

I installed mod on EA server and launched it with included punkbuster and join it - nothing happens. But I did not join other EA servers with vanilla maps.
