They have. Dedicated machmaking by Valve to everyone, public servers by
anyone for PC. Competitive matches can be held on the public server
software on PC and special match mode can be turned on for matches, that
ignores the default public settings where there is no enoconomy etc.
Matchmaking is Valve servers only so that no one can screw the system by
running a server of their own.

Valid point. Would prefer crossplay+official servers than no crossplay and
unofficial. I'm sure they'll find a compromise that works for everyone.

I was actually wondering if Valve would do this due to the cross platform
play. Console players aren't used to the paradigm of dedicated servers run
by the community. So it might reflect badly on Valve and the game if a
player joined a server and had to deal with some form of admin abuse, or
server mods through plugins.

That's ridiculous. Maybe registered servers have superseded this idea?

Hey,
so please let us stay on target: dedicated servers for cs:go - yes or
no?
I spoke to Chet Faliszek at Eurogamer about this. There will not be
dedicated servers that the public can run in the beta. As some of you
may
know Valve are intending to introduce some sort of match making system
- I
was told this will run on their own servers and these will be the only
servers available for the beta. I asked how it would be possible to have
competitive matches in the beta if you don't own the server and hence
can't
set the password - I didn't get a very clear response but I got the
impression it would not be possible.
Fortunately there *will *be dedicated servers for the full launch,
however
these will not be able to take part in the match making system; that
will
continue to run on Valve's servers only.
Bear in mind that this was already over a month ago I was told this,
things
change, my memory may have failed, I may have misheard etc. But I
thought
I
should share.
