Dedicated servers ever happening?
Comments

Maybe, maybe not (emphasis on maybe not)
Servers dont cost fortune anymore with nowadays technology, you can even rent them and its really cheap.
The problem is the netcode, the way DBD is coded it doesnt work with dedicated servers and they would have to redo all their spaghetti code, tahts why its most likely never gonna happen0 -
You can't just simply "give" dedicated servers...

No, they are more or less broke because of the Deathgarden mess, wasted resources

dedicated servers will NEVER happen...the game isnt designed around it and they have said a lot of times NO

not to mention servers are extremely expensive and if the game were to die within a short time of buying them it would of just been wasting money plus P2P can take a game far past its life span as you dont need connected servers to play.

I mean, I disagree. Dedicated servers are a better investment for a game. Look at For Honor, it was P2P and had the exact same issues with bad connectivity. Refusal to go dedicated servers is a bad idea. We won't get them anytime soon but we should get them eventually. Even if it takes a year or two. But to completely avoid it, it's just bad design.0

I'm saying that as an example it helped the game which was dying.
If I recall didnt the F13 devs just recently roll out dedicated servers? Amidst financial issues and essentially unable to do anything monetarily with the game in the future. Is that a more palpable comparison for you?2 -
Though i'd love it, it'd require a good amount of people and time.
And there's always something fucky about this game, so no can do.0 -

F13, a game that has a low playerbase and cannot have any new content added to it, just released dedicated servers. If F13 and Gun can support them, then DbD and BHVR can too.0

This game would take a huge amount of recoding for P2P to be removed. I am not saying I have many issues with dedicated servers being brought in, but I have a huge issue with them gutting the code which will probably break quite a bit more in this game than intended.

Eh, I wouldn't hold my breath on dedicated servers.
