Where to rent a dedicated Nexuiz server

Postby AdamFs » Sun Mar 07, 2010 5:13 pm

I was looking to rent a Nexuiz server as I can't host it behind my firewall, and didn't want to add to the list a half decent server anyway.
I'll be running the latest versions.
I googled: nexuiz dedicated server rent and about all I found http://main.jestservers.com/ under Serious Sam HD for some reason lol.
Anyone have a server with them or know about them? I was trying to get something cheaper too, how much resource do Nexuiz server use?
Thanks all!

If you know how to administrate servers via ssh, you can always go the VPS route. You can probably find one with ~384-512mb of RAM and a decent processor for ~$10-15 USD a month and that should be enough to run a 4v4-8v8 server pretty well.

There are a few things that you should note:

- Maps are loaded into RAM, so the more maps you have loaded, the bigger the memory footprint.
- The more players, the more CPU is used.
- You should use a different server for hosting maps

Do you have any VPS you would recommend?
I don't know how to use SSH though lol, I can learn.
