The abillity to host unranked is still there, and is being continued with BF3 
(info was released somewhere last few days).

The difference here is, with EA you can at least rent ranked servers(Never 
thought I'd name that as a Pre, cause I hate EA's way of doing business and 
always praised VALVe in their continues community support). From the lines 
below I make up that there won't be any community controlled/administrated 
"ranked/official/whatever" servers.

well, its normal, they cant control plugins in dedicated servers and
fake statistics. Also, EA has a "trusted partner program" and ONLY allow
ranked servers, used to allow unranked in bf2,bf2142 but not anymore. To
become ea trusted partner is a hell and they ignore almost any request.
