HI guys,Don't know if this is in the right thread. I spoke to one of a developer and indicated that in order to get my game to multiplayer I need to look into finding a good server. Any suggestion on a company to research? I'm looking for a server that can host potentially 4 - 6 players in a lobby without major lag. If I can't fill the lobby up I would auto-fill the lobby with bots. |

There are so many good, big and small hosting companies. Just google it and you'll find millions of results. |

Thanks Phoenix. My developer must be playing me or very worried that he can't get what I need done. He was mentioning about lag, Ping, 3g, regionalisation etc.. Sorry Phoenix - I think I missed a key part of my question, would the host companies (small) are able to host hundreds of lobbies globally with 4 - 6 players in them? Or would you suggest large companies? |

Hundreds of lobbies on one server or on hundreds of servers? I don't know if some companies would give you that many servers, but then you need really big ones that can give you a bunch of them. |

I'd prefer hundreds of lobbies on one server as long as it can handle the data but hundreds of servers would work. |

What game & what do you mean by "finding a good server." Do you mean server HARDWARE or game sever SOFTWARE? The guy who runs Tastyspleen.net rents computers and runs his site + ftp + user accounts + servers from those machines. -- Go play some Quake 2: q2server.fuzzylogicinc.com |

It really depends on what server hardware you pay for. A really good server can maybe hold 400-600 players without lags but then you may get a big ping. Just watch what you're paying for and invest a little bit - nobody wants to play on a server with 500 ms ping |

Trying to find quality servers and all I can see is Minecraft servers, counter strike, COD servers etc. Can anyone please recommend a link where I can find server/s for mobile gaming? |
