Dedicated servers FAQ

Why should I purchase a dedicated server when I can play my game on someone else’s?

Having your own dedicated server will give you your own platform with less lag and much more control. You’ll also get full control of the configuration and total control over who gets to play on the server. Consider it your first step towards world domination.

Why should I buy a dedicated server instead of a gaming server?

A gaming server will only let you play the game that’s loaded onto the server. However, Webfusion’s dedicated servers give you full control – so you can can be playing Half-Life one week and Counter-Strike the next. It’s all about the flexibility!
