Sure, check out http://bia.esgnserver.de/?page=article_ ... =6&site=27
they asked the GBX CEO 10 questions about BIA

here's the reply about the servers.

Planet-Bia.de:
How we can play online. Is it possible to take dedicated Servers or will Gearbox take Servers like Novalogic for Joint Operation ?

Randy Pitchfort

On-line games allow you to lead a squad of AI soldiers - just like single player, except that the enemy is commanded by human squad leaders. The games are like missions and are launched from a lobby. Dedicated servers aren't relevant to this kind of game design - just create a game or join one that someone else has created whenever you want to play. There are some built in match-making features that should make it all easy for you. The game design is very different - you have never played a competitive squad leader game like this before.
Because it is different, we know some people will have a hard time comparing it to past experiences prior to trying it themselves. To best imagine it, just forget your past experiences in on-line games, and instead think about the promise of commanding a squad of AI soldiers against other players who also have AI soldiers. You will use fire and
move tactics with your squad to out-flank and outwit your opponents.
