BEEJ24 10 Posted May 19, 2009 (edited) spellcast, i will e-mail some of my past server rental peeps, forgot to add that in the pm i sent you, some i have had BF2 servers hosted with had been awesome, so will get in touch when if i get a response from any UPDATE: RACKAGE = We will have to see what resourses this requires. ArmA was a high cpu usage game to host. INX-GAMING = Hi Martin This really depends on the dedicated server support for the game. We should if the server files are ok, be able to provide this on our normal pricing of £0.49 per slot basic, £0.99 normal. If you'd like to contact us on release date, we'll definitely have a look at this for you.

I would like to request Gameservers.com to please consider hosting ARMA2 please feel free if you have 5 mins to serach in google or yahoo and see that pickings are slim if at all at present of this post, ive come straight from /forums.bistudio.com (main forums) where i may add its buzzing very well ARMA2 is out in England on the 26th june i believe. quite allot of people on the forums keep asking whos hosting servers and we all seem to be somewhat going in circles now you provide webspace and teamspeak or ventrillo which is exellent. I feel if your company was to possibley host a few to start with i would be extremley greatfull and im sure i speak for our community when i say this. The game i believe is going to popular and you would genuinley make allot of custom from this game and traffic im just please asking would you consider hosting this new title so we have something we can start pieceing together on the forums @ /forums.bistudio.com. for me myself i will be hosting permitted everythings reasonable for quite a while and look to start a clan with this title so i sincerley hope you can mail me or pm me some info to when it arises as to the status of my application to gameservers.com Thank you,Ryan CorningGameServers.com for mailing me look foward to hearing from you guys soon . kind regards spellcast @ bistudio.com (forums) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BEEJ24 10 Posted May 19, 2009 the only i can see for hosts spellcast is that even ARMA is a high end cpu usage game, and ARMA2 will be as well, and server hosts, would possibly have to use 0.5 of a server just to host an ARMA2 server, which is where they would start to lose money as they could host far more counter-strike source or day of defeat servers... which is a bugger...

BEEJ24 10 Posted May 19, 2009 http://www.gtxgaming.co.uk/ - they have left 4 dead servers which have loads of AI zombies so they might be worth a shot, the only other hosts i could find are ones in the US so pings might be an issue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Landstalker 10 Posted May 20, 2009 **below is a message from Rackage.com Sales Team** as regards to my application for them to host ARMA2 servers here's what they wrote. yes depending on how well they cater for a dedicated server, until i get my hands on a copy and intergrate it with our control panel the yes is "pending release, testing, and load testing then pricing" we hosted the original and i will be looking at Arma2 GoNz0.
