• VPS hosting for GMod
    3 replies, posted
I wanna host a GMod server for DarkRP 64 slots, I wanna run it myself but I want to know whats good for running a 64 slot DarkRP server. I would say a 2 core 2 gig VPS would do but I'm not sure.
2 core 2 gig for 64 players sounds waaay not enough to me. More like 8 cores and 8gigs for smooth experience. Maybe 4 and 4, but not 2 and 2.

But money is starting to run low and I don't think I can pay for an 8 core 8 gig for a starting server.

Yes, less lags, but also less server precision. 2 and 2 won't make for 64 players. How do you even expect to get 64 players as a starting server? go for 24 or 32 for now, upgrade if necessary. For 64 players, you'll need at least 4 and 4, at low tick rate. Also, why do you try to start a server with low budget? Hosting a server in most cases is unprofitable. Besides hardly anyone is going to play vanilla DarkRP, so you gotta invest into addons or coders for your server.
