Server Locations

Real dedicated hardware in our datacenter in Hickory, North Carolina.

Where your server lives matters — even a few milliseconds of latency changes how a shot lands or how smoothly a base loads. We host on real hardware in Hickory, NC. Players closest to the eastern US get the lowest ping; the farther away you are, the more distance adds. If your community is based somewhere else, tell us — we grow toward where our players actually are.

Why Location Matters

The difference between a server that feels great and one that fights you is mostly in the network.

Low Latency

Hosting close to your players cuts round-trip time, so hit registration, base loads, and movement all feel responsive instead of laggy. Milliseconds win gunfights.

Consistent Ping

A steady connection beats a fast-but-spiky one every time. What you want is a stable route that keeps jitter down, so your ping graph stays flat instead of sawtoothing through prime time.

Real Hardware

Your server runs on real dedicated hardware, not an oversold shared box — with configs we tune per game so it behaves the way that title actually plays.

US-Based Support

Real people in the US, not a scripted queue. When something needs a hand, you talk to a team that runs game servers and knows how they break.
