I doubt anything comes of it, but here’s hoping.

    it’s unrealistic to assume it would exist forever.

    Older multiplayer games would let you self-host the server, long before the current trend.

    Ubisoft doesn’t have to continue to host servers. They just have to release the server code. Zero cost to them.

      I would imagine it would reveal how sh*tty the ubisoft code bases are and has a reputation cost XD. But if it’s that big of a risk then they should keep the servers running indefinitely.

        I mean, they don’t have to release the source code. A compiled version would be fine.
