Zipper: Dedicated Servers are beneficial, helps resolve peer-to-peer issues

While Infinity Ward is abandoning dedicated servers, the guys and gals over at Zipper who are developing the biggest war game to ever grace any gaming console, decided that there are too many benefits to not use them.

Because of Infinity Ward's decision, PC gamers have launched a petition that over 100,000 people have signed. And although the studio gave a response, it seems there's no turn of heart from Robert and the gang. Should they change their minds and stick with the servers? Certainly you can't just give millions of PC owners your back.

Zipper interactive sees it differently, and speaking to DigitalFoundry, Zipper said it does a whole lot more good than bad to use dedicated servers.
