Why Host Game Servers on OMC Cloud

Gamers demand instant response times and zero lag. A 50ms difference in latency can mean the difference between winning and losing. Hosting your game server on the right infrastructure is not optional — it is the foundation of player experience.

OMC Cloud delivers dedicated VPS with NVMe storage (fastest possible map loads), network-level DDoS protection (game servers are #1 DDoS targets), and 24 data centers worldwide — so your players connect to the nearest location for the lowest possible ping. Full root access means any game, any mod, any configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions

What games can I host on OMC Cloud?+

Any game server that runs on Linux or Windows: Minecraft (Java & Bedrock), CS2, Rust, ARK: Survival Evolved, Valheim, Terraria, Palworld, 7 Days to Die, and hundreds more. Full root access means full control over what you install.

Do I get DDoS protection?+

Yes. Network-level DDoS protection is included on every server at no additional cost. This is critical for game servers, which are among the most frequently targeted services on the internet.

How fast are the servers?+

All servers use NVMe SSD storage for the fastest possible I/O — no IOPS limits. With 24 global data centers, you can deploy in the region closest to your players for sub-20ms latency.

Can I install mods and plugins?+

Yes. Full root access means you can install any mod, plugin, or custom configuration. Forge, Fabric, Paper, Spigot, Oxide — whatever your game needs.

How many players can I support?+

Depends on the game and mods. A basic Minecraft server handles 20 players on 4 GB RAM. CS2 handles 32 players on 4 vCPU / 8 GB. For 50+ players or heavily modded servers, use 8+ vCPU and 32+ GB RAM.

Can I run multiple game servers on one VPS?+

Yes. With larger configurations (8+ vCPU, 32+ GB RAM), you can run multiple game server instances simultaneously — for example, a Minecraft server and a Valheim server on the same machine.

Is there a free trial?+

Yes. 30-day free trial with no credit card required. Deploy a game server, test performance with your players, and only pay if you are satisfied.

How do I connect my domain to the server?+

Point an A record from your domain (e.g., play.yourgame.com) to your server IP address. OMC Cloud provides a dedicated public IP with every VPS.

What if my server gets attacked?+

Network-level DDoS mitigation activates automatically. Volumetric, protocol, and application-layer attacks are absorbed before they reach your server. No action required on your part.

Can I switch data center regions later?+

You can deploy a new server in a different region and migrate your game data. Our support team can assist with the migration process at no extra charge.
