I found this post on another forum about the MOH:A MP option:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The port from the console to the PC messed the MP piece up for the PC. There is no dedicated server support out of the box, so everyone is at the mercy of little Billy's PC and all the other fun stuff inherent with listen servers.

Fret not, for EA have promised us dedicated servers out of the box at launch. Excellent right? Well, no not really. It turns out they then retracted this statement but promised a patch to rectify this on day one of launch instead. Great news ... oh, but wait, that day has come and gone. Hm, well that's OK as they have a new promise, and one which they promise to keep this time, honest!

[Insert drumroll here]

The latest EA promise is a patch to rectify this and other bugs the week of Sept 17th (most are hopeful they mean 2007).

Perhaps I shouldn't sound so cynical, but fiascos like this really make me wonder who the heck is at the helm on this project over at EA. I realize the PC platform develpment typically takes a back seat to consoles when there's a multi-platform release, but c'mon."
