I don't think there's many in here that actually can influence Dice's + EA's choice on the matter as this is a community driven help forum.

I discovered a server which not only runs under linux but the admin was playing under linux, when asked how he did this he didn't respond but apparently its possible, I wished it was, I would not run windows at all then, for now I dual boot windows 10/Ubuntu
