Tyler Salwierz 16 Posted August 1, 2012 I can say, I'm more than happy with Elpis as a server host. Great service and awesome communication.US 1468 DallasThank you for the kind words!Current ETA if server ordered today for setup?I just ran out of InstanceID's for budget and there is one remaining for premium. I have a couple dozen pending ID's right now waiting for approval from DayZ so there will likely be a 24-72 hour provisioning time.By unmanaged service do you mean we have 100% control? Complete access to the config files and everything?No, the server.cfg is still restricted - you're limited to changing the options from the "configuration editor" which lets you change the timezone, motd, third person and other common settings. The budget line will allow you to have a fully working DayZ server with a dedicated CPU core but we will not troubleshoot issues for you on the budget line unless it's related to a patch/update not working correctly. Both managed and budget have full FTP access other then the configuration file and read only access on the critical folders (dayz/hive/mpmissions). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyler Salwierz 16 Posted August 1, 2012 I've updated the order page to reflect the DayZ rules everyone is required to follow as some people didn't know about them and it caused much confusion. This should clarify matters for everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lentWolf 24 Posted August 1, 2012 Mmm, glad to see some competition for server hosting. My clan is looking into hosting a server here in the next couple weeks, we'll keep an eye on your service - we had great experiences with your hosting in the past, so you're top on the list for us to go to :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tyler already got me set up with my server. And if I didn't have to be at work in 7 hours with no sleep I'd be on enjoying it already.I really like the control panel layout.

shane@teknacity.net 31 Posted August 2, 2012 I purchased a 40 player premium server through Elpis Host, and I am very pleased so far. My server has peaked at full for the week that it has been live. I haven't had any issues with lag, or crashes. I only had an issue initially with getting the server to run on 1.7.2.4, which Tyler fixed within an hour of me creating the ticket. He also helped me when the server wasn't displaying the correct in-game time for the timezone I selected. Again, he had it fixed within an hour of creating the ticket.This was definitely a great choice to place my home server. I definitely recommend Elpis Host. I also recommend getting the premium service for the few dollars more it costs. It is definitely worth it when you need the help, and need it fast.DenalbUS 1563 Dallas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tyler Salwierz 16 Posted August 2, 2012 Quick update guys, all of the pending ID's just got approved so I will be setting up the servers within the hour. If you purchase now, your server will be setup within two hours at the most. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mindless (DayZ) 2 Posted August 4, 2012 Wait how did I get my server for $30 a month? Am I special? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyler Salwierz 16 Posted August 4, 2012 Wait how did I get my server for $30 a month? Am I special?Yes! :)I actually had to raise the prices by $5 on new budget servers since I ended up being able to fit less then I hoped per node - it's still quite cheap though :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
