Server Hosting Companies?

[Stalker]

My server is near the bottom at the list and I don't blame my clan members when the say
Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaag!
and then disconnecting.
I am willing to pay a dedicated server company, if there are any, to host my server. I have already seen many around for Minecraft, but I can't find any for AoS. If anyone has a link to one, that would be great!
Thanks

Jestservers hosts private, custom servers. Google Jestservers. Also, you can try using a cloud hosting option (VPS) for more custom options.

Thanks NestoFlo and PXYC :)
Which location are you and your clan members mostly located near?
I can do a ping test to their IPs if you'd like from each server to find the optimal location for your group.

$320 per year for a 32 players server?

A little expensive don't you think?

Based on the resources used for AoS, it is a competitive price.
You'll notice JestServers will always ping lower in each location due to our performance bandwidth mix and hardware.

Also it would be $288 yearly, not $320. How was that total found if I may ask?

[Gorman]

Ehhe, sadly it was the result of sleep deprivation and poor rounding ;)

From what I have heard this is still quite expensive. Enari's costs $12/mo/server, which is literally half the cost, right?

The only high resource using part of AoS that I know of is the bandwitdh. If you found a host that had lower specs but 1TB bandwidth you could easily get a cheaper price.

I think Sham uses Linode, and that seems to work well. IIRC, Linode is one of the better VPS providers around, so you might want to look into them. Setting everything up with Linux/UNIX/etc. and pyspades might take a little effort if you're new, but it's definitely doable.

Goon Haven's servers are provided by Thalagyrt / betaforce. Occasionally you can find him on #AoS, but you can find him 24/7 in our IRC channel irc.tribalwar.com / #GH-AOS.
