Tips that keep players happy

  • Latency first. Choose the location by the ping your players see, not by price.
  • Give the world enough RAM but not all of it. Leave memory for the operating system.
  • Back up the world on a schedule. See how to back up a VPS.
  • Keep it updated and run the server as its own user, not as root.
  • Know the DDoS layers. Network protection is included. Game protocols can still need rate limits on the server.

Read the full Minecraft server guide. Check the game publisher’s server terms for the game you run.

FAQ

Game server questions

01How much RAM does a Minecraft server need?

A small vanilla server runs on 2 to 4 GB. Modpacks and many players need 6 to 8 GB or more. Start with the 4 GB size at $8.50 a month and move up if needed.

02Can I host more than Minecraft?

Yes. Any game server that runs on Linux works, such as Valheim, Terraria, Rust or Counter-Strike. Check its memory and port requirements first.

03Does the VPS include DDoS protection?

Yes. Every plan includes L3/L4 DDoS protection, which helps against floods aimed at your IP.

04Which location is best for a game server?

The one closest to most of your players, since ping decides the feel of the game. Test one month in two countries and compare.

05How much does a game server cost?

From $8.50 a month for 2 vCPU and 4 GB, or $13 a month for 4 vCPU and 8 GB in Romania. A 12-month term takes 50% off.
