The
vast majority of computer games include a multiplayer option, indeed
some are expressly designed for internet multiplayer gaming. Such
is the popularity of this aspect of gaming that not including this
option will doom a game to failure. Online gaming is a must for
the true hard-core gamer with hundreds of gamers joining the ranks
every day, all over the world. Online gaming has given rise to another
phenomenon, the gaming community. Thousands of gamers use the internet
to discuss gaming issues and arrange games.
The tendency is for gamers to then form a clan. A clan is a group of like minded individuals
who wish to work as a team to further their gaming skills. Usually
they will have some kind of organisation with a leader, training
and recruiting officer. Their online presence is signaled by their
website, forum or IRC channel. The team spirit that clan life generates
is a driving force behind many on-line leagues, ladders, and other
tournaments as the competitive team spirit in every one of us rises
to the fore. However it is then that most clans hit a major stumbling
block in their development. The lack of their very own clan server.
Since most servers are public, a clan cannot expect to occupy a
server by themselves with their preferred settings. This would be
the ideal setting in which to run a practice or training session
in privacy from other rival clans or indeed to challenge another
clan to a match. At times clans have to beg to borrow some other
clan's private server. Others try to book one but find that there
is none available at the date and time of their choice.
GameServers.net has the solution for all these problems. We offer you a fast and
stable clan server (or servers if you want more than one!) where
your clan can control their own game or server settings. Your clan
can then train or play a match whenever they want. You don't have
to try and book busy servers or beg other clans to borrow theirs.
GameServers.net supplies and supports your gaming needs, we pay
for all the bandwidth, hardware and maintenance costs. You simply
rent a server for a set amount per month and leave the rest to us!
You concentrate on having fun and we'll do the hard work in the
background.
Because GameServers.net is constantly buying or building new servers, many of our machines will be the fastest machines available for game servers.
Such is the case with the new Dual Xeon 3.4GHz machines and Opteron 800 series. These machines sport the Intel Hyperthreading technology, which is specifically designed to make use idle
time in the CPU more efficiently.
We place our machines in premium racks and cabinets with direct connections to the internet backbone. These facilities have advanced cooling systems, sophisticated backup power
and 24 hour security. We are confident that you and your company/clan/group will quickly realize the high value/cost ratio we provide with our service (aka, more bang for the buck).
Our peering is superb, and you should find you get excellent pings to our servers from just about any ISP in the Netherlands. Our international peering is also excellent, so your gaming friends from abroad can also join you on the servers at a good latency. GameServers.net has successfully become one of Europe's foremost gaming providers.
