In my opinion they should also be giving refunds to everyone who bought the game and now can't play it.

If you can't keep an online service running, then you shouldn't be selling games with an online service. If the community can take it over, that's awesome. But they might not and customers shouldn't have to rely on that.

Online features, like the Brotherhood multiplayer, or those annoying older ads to use the mobile app while playing. The game itself can still be played.
