Run your own dedicated Wargame:RD server!

Dedicated servers are good and all, but i'm curious as to why this is required for a game to have more then 8 players. As in only dedicated servers can have more then 4v4

as i understand it, game computations happen directly on the dedicated server, fixing lots of lag issues. in normal P2P games, if even 1 person has a slow computer or network connection, the game will slow down for everyone else in order to compensate. running 10vs10 as P2P would be impossible if 1 person out of 20 could destroy game quality

Does it really need to be a static IPV4 IP or will a dynamic IPV4 with static DNS also work ?

Yes the game computations happen directly on the dedicated server.
