I played it in the "open beta" two years ago. Sad that it's come to this, the game had a lot going for it but.. having all characters locked on start then weirdly shutting the game down for an extended time then coming back with everything somehow worse... everyone saw this coming.

At least it will stil be playable.

You can do both dedicated servers and official matchmaking servers. It's what counter strike does as an example.

That way if the official servers go offline, you only lose the matchmaking, but the game isn't totally dead.

Yeah, that's what I was trying to say there at the bottom. I think that's a better fit if you assign it by mode, especially in fighting games, where the ranked/unranked/lobby difference is well established, but at least it should be in the back pocket for a F2P fighting game to avoid this scenario.
