Server hosting for 10 or fewer people?

[The_Lion_Turtle]

Anyone know of any server hosting places that offer 10 or fewer slots? I've checked like 6 or 7 websites that offer Ark servers and they all offer only 30+ sometimes 50+ as their lowest and it costs a lot more than I'm willing to pay.

I just want to play with a few friends but my PC cannot run a server and play the game at the same time otherwise I'd do that. Anyone know of a server hosting site that offers 10 or fewer slots for a server?

I picked up a 10 slot server through survival servers. they have had some hiccups getting things going but it sems to be relatively ironed out at this point.

The server idles at like 4.7 gigs of ram. Thats with no one on it, doesnt seem to increase much with lots of people though.

survivalservers.com right? The lowest they're offering now is 30 players.

I only have 8 total, 2 of which is taken for my OS. So basically 6. Wouldn't running a server require 4 for the server and 4 for the game?

I got one through https://wombatservers.com/. $10 for 10 slots.

I have a private community server currently up. We can probably take you guys in if you would like a non-pvp environment. Pvp is enabled so you may still tourcher eachother. :)

I checked them out but I can only find 30 as the lowest but $12 isn't bad for that either.

This one so far is the best as it goes down as low as 4 players.

5gigs of ram even with 0 players. To breakeven they need to have high minimum slots

Okay man. Just doesn't make any sense when someone with a dedicated box is offering.

I can always just set you up with some space on my box and you can pay me monthly. lol

You just drag the slider to custom and then click Customise, you can choose 10 slots on the page that follows. https://wombatservers.com/ark.php

Ah I'm dumb. Although judging by the sites name and the options I see, there is only hosting for Australia and New Zealand. I'm in the US :/

Anyone have any expereince with these guys? They have servers close to me in California (West Coast US), but I'm unsure of their options when it comes to customizing. They have a slider for memory that oly mentions Minecraft and Farming Simulator (lol) but it says all other games shouldn't need that slider.

I've been looking at the Nitrado service...there's only one thread (in English) regarding ARK...and it's not a good thread.
The price is right, though. Does anyone else have any experience with Nitrado?
