Good news, everyone! Treyarch themselves have stated their undying love for dedicated servers and see absolutely no reason to ever change how multiplayer gaming has been done for years now. The head of Treyarch, Mark Lamia, confirms (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=246438) what has been rumored for some weeks now.
"I think dedicated servers are excellent. I don't see any reason not to see them unless... well, I just don't see any reason not to.
"It seems people like them and we're excited about what we're doing right now.
"We do work very hard to reconcile the desire to manipulate and modify those dedicated servers with offering them the persistent experience and benefits that the console system provides.
"We're working very hard to marry those two things, so people can run dedicated servers and also participate in the communal experience the console players get to have, given they're all on first-party servers."
The full Q&A with Lamia can be found in the 221st issue of PC Zone.
