Server ideas/Questions about servers
By: The Entire US Army Date: September 5, 2012, 3:56 pm

Can we submit some server ideas?
Being a TF2 player, mine would be VSH and deathrun servers, and
maybe do some standard servers instead of special servers, such
as payload/ctf/koth/attack-defense servers with map cycles.
Also, since I don't know much about servers, could one of you
admins please provide me with some information, such as how much
a server costs to run.

Chur bro
Theres a few ways you can go bout getting a server. There's the
host it your self, good if your on a fibre optic network. There
are sites like gameservers.com hypernia.com and a few others,
these sites charge $1.20 pre slot so depending on what your
after is how much you would have to pay and there are also
contracts involved 12moths
any thing else?

1. How much is it costing you to run all of your servers as of
the moment?
2. Are you making any money from this and in what way?
3. What limits you from hosting more servers? Is it only the
cost or are there other obstacles?

Yeah, I'm also curious about the costs of running these servers.
My first thought was perhaps you've got some ISP hook up to
handle bandwidth. But thinking some more, it would probably be
dirt cheap to run them in "the cloud" with AWS or Azure.

1.at this current time, all the servers are run by Stan* on a
server PC. so the only cost is internet useage, but we will soon
be hosting a server for TF2 trade so it will run faster.
2.We get a little bit of money each time someone joins an
empty-clip server because we are paid every time someone see's
the add(even if they skip it)
3.the only thing that is stopping us from hosting more servers
other than cost is internet speed and ram. it takes alot to run
servers across TF2/CSS/DOD:S etc. also at this current time we
have alot of servers, but in time we may get more.
