Me and couple of my friends want to host a realm of Mu online or Diablo II. And are wonder if we should host it locally on our pcs, or hire a hosting service. I mean we can spend like 30 € a month, cause we are like 30 people or so. And I think hosting to one person's pc will cost more electricity and bandwidth.
The thing is we wanted a Bulgarian hosting service, hosted in Bulgaria of course, cause our local connection is 20Mbit/s, so we found a hosting service that's cheap and I believe reliable. There are two choices I believe we should choose from.
The first is a web hosting.
- 100 gb's of hdd space.
- Unlimited traffic.
- This sounds so great, cause it's like 10 € a month.
- But it is a web server, and I'm not sure if the server machine could handle a game server.
The other option is VPS hosting.
- 512mb ram.
- 1tb of monthly traffic.
- Quad-core processor.
- And full control over the machine, whatever that means.
- It costs like 18 € per month.
So I'm not sure if we should host it locally, or rent a hosting service. Maybe I should talk to a friend of mine, who understands this better, he has experience with it. bb ;0
