I bet useing that much compute power for servers makes the upkeep of this game alot more expensive than most game servers. Its probably one of those games you wont be able to play multiplayer in 10years down the road.

Plenty of games from last gen that went offline and aren't even a full decade old.

Whatever happened to MAG?, Sony owned and exclusive: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAG_%28video_game%29

Shutdown 4 years later....

This happened a lot with most online games from last gen and even the gen before, unless you have a private server (which consoles don't own or have) then you're SoL and it's a more common thing to see. Even if in the off chance you were to come back to me with some old games that are somehow still up on a console from say last gen, they still aren't as popular as what's going on with current gen systems at the end of the day.

My point was this is going to become the "norm" if server costs go up alot.

You ll see alot of games have servers that go offline, pretty early, in the future if everyone is offloading stuff to the cloud servers to do it for them.
