Sorry guys if it has already been discussed. But does anyone have an idea how much bandwidth AA and Spearhead uses per hour.

Our clan would like to set up a server but would like to know how much bandwidth the server would need for :-

1. Bandwidth needed for AA server
2. Bandwidth needed for Spearhead Server
3. Bandwidth needed for a Combined AA/ spearhead server

Hope that makes some sort of sense c

heers.

A general rule is if you are going to host more than 6 players it better be a dedicated T1 server. SH is a hog on processor power. I suggest you email various server companies and get some feedback. here are some links to server companies. Email their tesh support of browse their FAQS for info on the types of server components they use as well as backbones they use in major NOC facilities.

[quote:f7379]I run a fairly popular clan server (Holyland). We run a 24 player game with
the maxrate set at 9000. 6 of the slots are private, but the server averages
20 players. It tends to start off the day with around 6-10 players in the
morning and grows to 18 in the early afternoon, and is full from 4pm to 3am
nearly every day. Last month the server used a total of 124.45 gigs out and
51.61 gigs in for a total bandwidth of 176.06 for the month of
December........that's a little less than 6 gigs of data transferred per day
for that one game server.

Now, not all game servers will us that much, and some may use more, but I
would estimate that a 20 player public server would average between 80-200
gigs per month, depending on how popular your server is and what you maxrate
is set at, etc.
