We’re giving $0.35 PER SLOT that you refer to us. Thats some serious game server credit. All [...]
Referral system raised to $0.35 per slot!
HGS has long since had a referral program that many people have used… however we feel like it needs a kick in the motivation-pants. Thats why today we’re raising the referral credit for game server hosting to $0.35 per slot. That means 26 slots gets you a private 100 tick 16 man CS:S server for [...]
Aliens vs Predator 3 (AvP3) has the worst designed dedicated server ever.
HostedGameServers.com has been keeping up with the AvP3 times. We’ve been putting out game server pre-orders and updates on dedicated server files for awhile. We planed to host AvP3 and took a good number of preorders.
To make a long story short, the AvP3 dedicated server system is more than annoying like Battlefield 2 or the [...]
We’re trying to get AvP3 integrated and running!
We’ve got the east coast hardware for Aliens vs Predator 3 ready and running, but we’re having a hell of a time finding a CP that supports it. The dedicated server support is very poor and it’s definitely beta. We’ve tried www.gamecp.com to no avail and the swiftpanel system we already have just supports linux. [...]
We know!

We’re waiting on our Windows boxes to come in. We had to wait until the files were released so we knew what kind of hardware to purchase!
It all depends on the data centers putting in our boxes now. It takes anywhere from 24 to 48 hours which means we should have our servers up [...]
Atom Exploded. Boom.
Something on one of our servers caused atom’s memory go to nuts! Likely a steam bug, exploit or memory leak… atom needed a hard reboot before it would be responsive. If you had a server who already had memory assigned, you were probably playing normally… but when you would go to change maps – it [...]
Central Servers on the way!
We’ve had plenty enough customers sign up that we’ll be launching a central server operation (likely in Texas) between the 12th and the 18th of February. Until then we will be scouting to find the best connectivity, availability and location to plant down our central USA servers.
Right now, the only game server hosting available for [...]
Valve broke source again. Don’t update!! (appdatacache.cpp (311) : Assertion Failed: !”Implement me” error)
So, valve broke Counter-Strike: Source again in their last update. (Sigh!) Don’t update your server or it will stop booting. They’re working on a fix now, but it could be a day. Bad Valve, BAD!
appdatacache.cpp (311) : Assertion Failed: !”Implement me”
Here’s some news from their mailing list:
Is this failing to contact steam master or vac [...]
