I’m curious what people are paying for their private servers. As well as who they are being hosted threw. Because unless you have your own box I can probably beat it.
I think most people rent off G-portal. Someone will correct me if I am wrong but that’s what I have found.
I’m using g-portal, seemed like the easiest solution.
I paid $16 for a 20 slot server, then another $8 for server upgrades. Which also increased the server to 40 slot, and other stuff.
I’ve been charging a flat $1 per slot. No extra charges for maintenance or updates or any of the other shenanigans that other hosts do. If you want Vanilla I can have auto updates. If you want modded then that sadly is manual.
Funcom updates tend to break the game but I never heard of files themselves breaking. I the the update button and then then game works. Been hosting servers for years and never heard this.
