No. If mwo produce not enough for server upkeep they will just pull the plug. Game over.
And you think that somehow that isn't the overall strategy? PGI has made conscious decisions over the last couple of years that they KNEW were going to drive away not just players, but the ones that were dropping enough disposable cash on them to keep the lights on. In fact, if you look back at the history of MW:O, you'll see that bad decisions tend to be the only constant since inception.
If they shut it all down, it'll effect MW5 sales...which have plateaued at or around sea level. That's the only reason the servers are still active. It's a source of revenue.
