I'd have thought they'd be doing it by now, if it was viable.
Here's a super secret transcript smuggled by my salmon ninja spies from EA HQ from their meeting with potential advertisers, although I'm legally obliged to note that it's vaguely possible that I fabricated it in it's entirety:
EA: Hello advertisers. Give us some monies. For adverts.
Advertisering People: Erm, how many people are playing your game?
EA: Er, eleventy-thousand.
AP: Hmm, that's not very many, compared to the eleventy-million we get on "Match of the Football" or "Incineration Street"

Hmmmm, could be. It wouldn't surprise me if the new vehicle releases came with a new map. It's the first time I've seen these vehicles (the images are blocked at work), but it looks to me like they're trying make the two sides a bit less similar with the EU getting a big, heavily armed APC and the PAC getting a lighter hover APC.
