Just when you think it's all doom-and-gloom for the Call of Duty franchise, for PC gamers at least, Treyarch pull through. When asked about the dedicated server topic in relation to the forthcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops, studio head Mark Lamia stated that "dedicated servers are excellent", and I'd have to agree...
"I don't see any reason not to see them unless... well, I just don't see any reason not to." Mark continued. "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."
