Jim_Minhoca 1 Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 What we need to do to have some brazilians servers? Link to post Share on other sites
ElementUser 480 Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 (edited) The first thing to do is to find a reputable BR server host in a data center (it can't be some servers in some guy's basement, because HoN's server executables will be put on that server). The second thing to do is research the appropriate specs for the server and find a suitable one. Xeon E-2136 should be the standard, as HoN runs well on these servers on OVH servers: https://www.ovhcloud.com/en-ca/bare-metal/advance/adv-2/ The third requirement is to find a reasonable cost, because donations will be covering that amount. The final requirement is a reliable monthly income through donations to cover that cost. I've tried this before & had little luck, as the servers were too expensive for the performance they provided. Best of luck if you & others wish to attempt this endeavour. We can talk once we have these details sorted out. It's not a donation goal yet because the first 3 requirements must be met before we can consider putting up a donation goal. Edited October 10, 2020 by ElementUser Link to post Share on other sites
ScrubFactory 4 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 What would be a reasonable cost for something like this considering the BR playerbase size. Link to post Share on other sites

Well, I mean even if it costs 1000 USD a month, so long as the donor sources are reliable & can supply it, that's fine. Reasonably speaking, around 300-400 USD is what I would consider on the high-end of "reasonable", since it's only 1 BR server (assuming it has at least 6 cores/12 threads). To give some perspective, our OVH servers cost only about 120-150 USD per month to upkeep, and they are amazing. Edited October 12, 2020 by ElementUser Link to post Share on other sites

nereco 4 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 too bad you had no luck finding a good and cheap server. I know nothing about this stuff, i wish i knew. Strange you could not find any because 1 dollar = 5 BRL, it should be cheaper to have servers here, our economy is screwed. I wish I could play Hon again Tried dota 2 but don't feel as good as Hon I guess its gonna be in my memories forever ;/ 1 Link to post Share on other sites

ElementUser 480 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 I mean, that's why I requested for said information - because ovh doesn't have SA servers. So find another provider that meets these requirements. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

ZER0C00L22 8 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 (edited) Also, i let you here one of the best webs to search for hosting: https://hostadvice.com/hosting-services/dedicated-server/ This have a lot of filters and you can see customers reviews. PD: On each hosting you can see the countries where they have servers. Edited November 7, 2020 by ZER0C00L22 Link to post Share on other sites
ElementUser 480 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 (edited) Xeon E3-1240 won't cut it, we tried those before when the AU community paid for those on OVH and it lagged often. The problem with the first server host is that it doesn't specify the exact CPU specs/model. If you're able to find this information more in-depth, we can consider it. As it stands now, the community does have to do all the work for us to consider this option, as it is not something we have time for. Thank you very much for your cooperation & efforts!

As EU said - once you got a decent server provider he accepts, he can create a donation goal for it. There's no use in a petition without money. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
