BFBC uses dedicated servers even on console. di sila parihas sa IW. instead of moving forward with the technology, ifinity ward decided to go backward just so they can make more money. right now, mas respectable jud ang DICE with their move.

@ongkal ... I live in the US ... but have you played on a service similar to the one proposed? It is BETTER for the majority of users ... even outside the US. Even if it wasn't better, I don't live in the Philippines ... nor is the Philippines even exist as a blip on the gaming radar. These are companies and they are here to make money ... the US is where the money is at.
With that said ... you are premature to call this move out as a "bad" thing. You have yet to play it ... yet to see the performance. If you want to take a stand ... then do so. The minuscule number of sales that come from the Philippines is irrelevant to publisher.

I reckon they should have just included both options. So when you go on the Multiplayer menu for the PC version, you can either play on IWNet (with Region Filters, and Rank Progression tracking), or join a dedicated server (with a server browser list) for people who want to play the game their way. Wouldn't that be a win win situation?
I know probably too late to implement that now with the game coming out next month. But they can always patch it.

This is a classic case of gamers all in a huff before they even know what they are dealing with. From what I am reading ... they only deal with "standard" dedicated servers. What that means, people are yet to find out. People compare this move to something others have done but which isn't really fair to compare a game with the popularity of Modern Warfare and a developer with the caliber of Inifinity Ward. People whined about Starcraft 2 ... no LAN play. People whined about Left 4 Dead 2 early release date. Now people whine about this. In the end, all the whiners will be buying the game. This is NOT an excuse to pirate a game. Stop justifying your e-rage.
