| Griffin said: How much more does it cost to run the dedicated servers then the P2P system they have now. What large player base shooter games even have dedicated servers? Blops each day has over 1million online at a time with 360+ps3. Add in Cod4, W@W and MW2 and the numbers must be massive. |
It will cost more but I think some of the proceeds from XBL goes towards maintaining the P2P infrastructure of COD, etc. So I'd imagine MS would pay for some of those dedicated servers for XBL. For PS3, Acti would have to pay for the whole thing.
But thats besides the point, I'm sure Acti has enough money in their vaults to run dedicated servers to run for a million players on average daily. Thats the only thing this game needs atm, everything else it looking awesome.
