NITRADO Server slot and price change?

[Nooblets]

The other day i looked at the Nitrado website and im sure it said.
20 slot servers for 90 days, £40+ something.
But now it looks like they have raised the minimal server slot to 26 and the price to £59.28
Is this True and can you send me screen shots!

Yep, the Price has changed, and there is even an explanation on the website why they did it.

ARK: Survival Ascended pushes the limits of hardware with overhauled Unreal Engine 5 graphics, dynamic water and interactive foliage! As a result, running ARK: Survival Ascended game servers requires a lot of memory (14-16 GB), and especially compared to ARK: Survival Evolved game servers (5-6 GB), it is around 3x higher. The high server hardware requirements lead to higher pricing on our end and is reflected in the required 26 minimum slots. Unfortunately, there is nothing Nitrado can do about the high RAM consumption and the corresponding minimum slots, but we will constantly evaluate the required minimum slots based on the RAM consumption.

Wow, so we can't host our own internally yet the server pricing has shot up like hell? Nice move all around guys. I love ARK but not the new server limitations and pricing modeling around it...
