BittleRyan 10 Posted January 10, 2010 I am wanting to host my own server. Which is the cheapest in the united states? Which is the best quality? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thirdup 0 Posted January 10, 2010 (edited) We leased one from Art of War for a few months. It didn't quite live up to our expectations. We changed to Defcon and have been very pleased with both the performance and customer service. We've been with them for the past six months and haven't had any reason to search further.

BittleRyan 10 Posted January 10, 2010 Yeah i was looking at defcon, it looked pretty good. but i am just seeing what everyone else thinks, why are Arma 2 servers so expensive? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mosh 0 Posted January 10, 2010 Yeah i was looking at defcon, it looked pretty good. but i am just seeing what everyone else thinks, why are Arma 2 servers so expensive? http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=92849 is a recent thread discussing a few different server companies. (in the multiplayer forum no less ;)) Out of the 3 companies I have rented from, League Servers has the cheapest price if you don't need your 'own' box (ie 20-40 slots on a shared server) and their customer service is... well, really not that bad. Their private servers suck, but have had no problems with their public servers. But I really would recommend http://www.jestservers.com/ for anything bigger than that (his prices for bigger boxes are as cheap as anyone else), and for just outstanding customer service.

janster01 1 Posted January 11, 2010 Does 64 player warfare servers work, or are they just too laggy? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gossamersolid 155 Posted January 12, 2010 Does 64 player warfare servers work, or are they just too laggy? Most I've seen work is 32 and it still gets pretty laggy at that point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tyler4171 10 Posted June 19, 2010 Does league servers support ArmA 2 or ArmA 1? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qwertz 10 Posted June 20, 2010 +1 on Jestservers. Awesome service, best performance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JinxHacker 10 Posted June 20, 2010 Personally defcon customer support was slow for me but the server is low ping and works great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rustydog 10 Posted June 20, 2010 +2 on Jestservers. Awesome service, best performance. although for maxium performance I would suggest (if you can afford it) to go with your own dedicated box . at least a quad core setup with a min of 2 gig . The side benifits of that is you can run other things Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Franklin 0 Posted June 20, 2010 Jest all the way! the guy that runs the company is awesome, very friendly and extremely fast in replying to any support questions. they even got in contact with the ace dev team in order to work on getting the six updater to auto update on their servers, if you wanted the option. when we got a second server, they even copy and pasted all our mods from the first box to the second, so we didnt have to spend hours uploading to the new one.

BittleRyan 10 Posted June 20, 2010 I would go with low ping all the way. I have been with them for 3-4 months now. The live chat feature is great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tyler4171 10 Posted June 23, 2010 has anyone heard anything about www.counter-strike.com ? They host ArmA 2 servers and was wondering if their prices tell you what you are really getting (bad Customer service, non-stable, etc) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jest 10 Posted June 25, 2010 Yeah come check me out :D If you're not happy we'll give you a refund. Maybe some chocolate if you need it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
