No. I never suggested such "cultural closedness". I never said anything about the number of players, either, or a higher version number.

The problem is that in the current situation, the CF+ servers appear as higher versions of CF, which definitely is *not* the case. The user has *no* way to guess the "2.1" displayed refers to a different project.

You can keep trying dodging the issue by focusing the debate on details, but you'll not change the basical equation "Game named Crossfire2 > Game named Crossfire 1.10" in the mind of most (if not all) players, and especially the newcomers. 

Really, this is getting tiresome. What's so hard to understand in that for most, "+" carries the idea of superiority/improvement, or that "2 > 1" ?

Yes, but it currently isn't the case. I don't think waiting for new releases of the clients to solve the issue is acceptable, when you could have done it in a few minutes.

I'm sorry if I sound rude, but I have more and more the feeling that you're playing dumb with us on this on purpose. I hope the future will prove me wrong on this.
