Tbh, even if they do, it's going to be like Black Ops dedi servers, which imo weren't what i'd call dedi servers. ONE game service provider, 16 player cap, no mods (that I saw), no ability to actually change anything in the game (that I saw) etc etc. It was just matchmaking with a decent ping.
Edit. Reading the article again, do you really think this will happen? They'll say pre-launch "Ok, dedi servers and mod support it is", then bail on that idea after the launch.
