    The only problem I foresee is if your ping times are too high which could cause matchmaking issues, other than that you should be fine.

    As for when the servers could be shut down I recommend you monitor http://www.ea.com/1/service-updates as any upcoming shutdowns will be notified to players there.

The PS3 servers for this game are still active and players are on there currently.

@EA_Barry So I can buy it and play normally? I'm happy with the answer hahahah.
Maybe there is some "lock region", or the brazilian players don't usually play this game, and that's why the server was empty. I'm brazilian and I played the trial version on my brazilian psn. Thankfully, I have another psn account from other country (european one).
Do you have any prevision when the servers will be shut down?

    Hello! A LOT of people play this game, actually. There are very active facebook forums with over 500 members. I personally know of 4 brazilians who play this game, I suspect there are many more but those are the ones I've met/interacted with. Make sure you're using the full version, not just the trial/demo. Once you pay the $10 you can join the multiplayer by clicking on "quick match".  Hope you keep at it, enjoy!

      I bought the game a few months ago and I met some brazilians too hahaha.

      When I downloaded the trial version, the maps were always empty, but now that I bought it I can play normally with full servers, and I'm rly enjoying it. Anyway, tnks for advise
