Neutral summary and data basis

game-serverhosting reports its entry price, usual automatic provisioning time, currently 41 active games in the configurator, and the product features listed in the table. This overview describes the company's own service; it is not a provider ranking and makes no claims about competitors.

Methodology
The entry price and game count are read from active pricing and product data when the page is rendered. The remaining statements come from currently implemented plan, panel and provisioning features and were editorially checked against those technical sources.
Limitations
The final price depends on the game, RAM or slot tier, and term. Provisioning time is a usual range, not a guarantee; large installations, load and queues can change it. The table does not measure real-world game performance, support quality or availability at every location.
Entry price From 2.69 EUR per month, depending on game and RAM or slot tier
Pricing model RAM-based; slot-based for some shooters — the configurator shows the price before purchase
Billing Monthly subscription with no long-term minimum; automatic renewal is enabled by default and can be disabled
Provisioning time Automatic setup after payment, usually 1–3 minutes; larger Steam installations can take longer
Supported games 41 games in the configurator, continuously expanded
Location High-performance hosting infrastructure in German data centres
DDoS protection Network protection depends on the assigned hosting infrastructure
Storage NVMe SSD on every server
Backups Manual backups and configurable backup schedules in the panel
Own subdomain Included, e.g. my-server.game-serverhosting.com
GSLT / Steam token Automatically included for Counter-Strike 2 and Team Fortress 2, no own Steam account required

Controlled Minecraft fork baseline

These first-party operating measurements compare Leaf, Paper and Leaves under one identical synthetic workload. They document this test series and do not claim that one project is generally better or faster.

Median milliseconds per tick by project
Leaf 1.4 ms 1.4 ms
Paper 1.5 ms 1.5 ms
Leaves 1.5 ms 1.5 ms
Project Usable runs Median TPS Median MSPT Median process CPU Measured
Leaf 3/3 20 1.4 ms 3.975%
Paper 3/3 20 1.5 ms 3.928%
Leaves 5/5 20 1.5 ms 4.054%

Methodology

3 usable runs per project with the same seed, 100 pre-generated chunks, 200 cows and 5 plugins. Each 4 GB / 200% CPU server received 120 seconds of warm-up, followed by 300 seconds of measurement sampled every 15 seconds.

Limitations

This is a controlled synthetic baseline, not customer or live-player performance. Every project reached Minecraft's normal 20 TPS ceiling; three usable runs per project and the measured workload do not establish a general performance ranking or predict other configurations.

Leaves reached the usable baseline despite an approximately 78% pre-generation stall rate in attempted runs. The cause remains unresolved; Leaf and Paper were not affected in this test series.

Is there a long-term contract?

There is no long-term minimum. Billing is a monthly subscription; automatic renewal is enabled by default and can be disabled.
