First matter to consider is expectation for the server, e.g. how many players we foresee to gain.
- Up to 500 players a VPS (Virtual Private Server) is recommended. For any higher count of active player a Dedicated Server will be a better choice.
Does the server suppose to be global or more like local/regional?
- This is very important aspect while selecting our hosting. If we plan to dedicate the server for player of specified county(s) best option is to find hosting vendor within same country or any to which latency (connection - delay - time) is low.
