This mainly involves putting together a new version of the game that uses Peer to Peer servers for co-op play. The gameplay and flow of your experience will remain virtually identical, but will not need the use of dedicated servers in the cloud. This will allow you to continue playing with your friends when you desire and importantly, solo play will be completely unaffected.

Ah, that's kind of sad - but I guess given the reviews, not surprising. Glad they're at least making it so the game can continue to function (unlike other games..).

That alone might make me pick it up just to support that kind of business practice

It's such a recent release I think the publisher is hedging Steam permitting mass refunds if servers go offline so soon.
