A brief PDF FAQ goes further to explain that they hope to have the server software available for download on Steam ahead of the game's launch, giving all server providers (and anyone else for that matter) ample time to get their servers running for day one.
The Brink Standalone Dedicated Server includes several different game configuration files covering all of the regular game modes, including campaign, stopwatch, objective, and co--op challenges. In addition, there are a variety of server--side commands available that allow you to further customize your server, including team sizes, time limits and overtime, warm--up rules, friendly fire, voice chat, availability of Command Post buffs, rank restrictions, number of bots, and password.The document certainly says all the right things. Now let's all hope that the game turns out to be as good as it looks and that its success prompts other multiplayer developers to follow suit.
Brink is due in Australia on May 12th 2011 for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

A quick question though.. How will GSP's like you guys feel about this move? Surely people will still rent servers purely for the fact of the bandwidth needed to make it a worthwhile experience?
This can't come soon enough :)

I think it's awesome and wish everyone would do it. I think the value of having an open model far exceeds that of the closed RSP model for everyone, including people who rent servers. At the end of the day the servers that get rented are the ones that are the most popular, so the more accessible the game and the more people playing it the more likely everyone is to be better off.

The PDF was pretty basic, I hope you can turn up the team size to like 16v16.

I wasn't going to buy this game, it looked interesting though and I almost would.
However standalone dedicated servers that are planned to be released before the game so server admins can have it sorted, that s*** needs to be rewarded and I will do so by purchasing this game.
Well done Sirs.
