What are "Dedicated Servers" in Call of Duty?

I see everywhere people saying that they want dedicated servers in MW3. However I am clueless as to what that is.

Dedicated servers = Servers hosted by players and followers of the game. You scroll through the menu, find a game, and if it isn’t full, you join. If you like the server, save it to your favourites, and play again. I’m guessing you’ve never played an FPS on the PC. If you haven’t then it’s pretty self-explanatory since consoles use the P2P method, or the method where you are automatically placed with random people.

Dedicated servers = proper way to play (IMO).

  1. Servers bought and paid for by the Call of Duty franchize with the sole purpose of controlling call of duty traffic and hosting games. They decrease lag and get rid of the advantage of being the host player.

  4. Play gears of war 2 and that’s what u get if u don’t have a dedicated server. Dedicated servers eliminate host so noone has an advantage.

  5. Servers dedicated to hosting games between players, that are owned by the company that made the game. The company rents them out, and when they are being rented, the renters can use them to host games and they show up in that list in Black Ops when you are searching for a game.
