Even worse than the communication issue is the fact that there's no place to put game state. Putting it in the datastore is too slow & expensive and putting it in a backend isn't reliable enough. Gameservers need to have uptime of months at least; even with checkpointing to the datastore, users are going to get really pissed if their last 5 minutes of hacking and slashing dragons suddenly disappeared.
