Just thinking a lot about the monumental task they have ahead of them to get this running smoothly on 4 different platforms and was considering how Microsoft is providing dedicated to servers to any XBox One developer.

It doesn't make sense that they'd develop a model that uses dedicated servers on one platform and not the other. So is the fact that this is spread between 4 different platforms forcing it to P2P or is Bungie stepping up on the other platforms, providing dedicated servers?

I haven't seen any articles about networking. The most recent Breaking In article is the only one I can even think of that talks about networking, but that doesn't even cover it just talks about it very peripherally.

My guess is the latter. Between Activision's deep pockets and Bungie's (from the sound of it, growing) datacenter, I'm going to say somebody is/was willing to foot the bill to build that out.

Yeah I hope that's part of the value of the partnership.
