How many slots could you pack on a Minecraft server at $ 20,000 a month?
Infinite? XD
No.
Sew xD
Own server, or rented?
With DDoS protection? With developers? Including bandwidth, electricity costs and maintenance costs?
And what should it offer?
I do not know. Does2b2t have its own server? And btw joa I think everything is included. The server costs 2500 US dollars for 250 slots so I think own servers
It all depends on what software the server uses and what it is used for. Do worlds have to be generated? Are mods used?
In addition, there's also whether you speak of a single server (they reach your limits, simply because of the programming with a few hundred players), or of a server network, such as Hypixel, Mineplex, Hive, Gomme, etc.
With 20,000 euro a beautiful network can be put together with tens of thousands of slots. It all depends on what the proxy / sub-server concept looks like.
Well, 2B2T doesn't really fit the question. Because 2B2T is in a single world. And a single world runs on a single thread. As a result, there are hardware limits. I would say a few thousand players. You can't get more than that. Even if you have a million budget.
Do you know 2b2t?
Yes, as far as I know this is a Craftbukkit server, on which you can play survival as normal. When everyone is building and exploring (with hacks à la FastPlace and Speed, mind you) the server will be pushed to its limits very quickly. I think there will be a reason why the server only has 80 slots. He can't cope with more players, no matter how expensive.
He has 250
Now and then it even has more than 15tps.
Only he could probably have more because the admin always got it there.
A lot of people get upset because sometimes you have to wait up to 15 hours to get to the server
I never existed infinitely, that's just a selling point…
Where did you get this information from? My research revealed that the actual server has 80-100 slots. Could it be that the rest of the people you mean are responsible for the queue?
No yesterday there were 150 people on the server. I was on the main server. 150 people played, the server is designed for 150 people, but it usually only had 9 TPS
But he still has 2 QServers once for "Premium" with mostly 200 people in the queue and normal players with mostly 400-900 players in the queue. That takes up to 15 hours.
So he has 150 slots. It may well be that he can still handle it, but as you can see, he doesn't often have the desired 20 tps. You can still spend so much on the server. At some point it will reach its programming limits.
Okay thanks
