Rent a Rust Server

Use the integrated uMod catalog to research admin, economy, and gameplay plugins. Automated installation is not currently enabled; verify compatibility and set up Oxide/uMod and plugins manually.

Yes, you can set up scheduled wipes. Many servers wipe weekly or monthly. You configure the wipe schedule in the control panel — map wipe and blueprint wipe can be controlled independently.

For 50 players we recommend a map size of 3,000–3,500. Larger maps (4,000+) require more RAM and CPU resources. The procedural seed is freely configurable to get the map topology you want.

The player limit is configurable. Actual resource demand depends on concurrent players, map size, plugins, and load; choose RAM and slots for your scenario in the configurator and monitor usage after launch.

Yes, RUST+ (the official companion app) works on dedicated servers. Players can receive push notifications, view the team map, and use server chat directly in the app. Pairing happens automatically via the in-game pair code.

After provisioning, configure the server name, map size, seed, and maximum players in the control panel. Larger Steam installations can take longer. Research uMod plugins in the catalog; automated installation is not currently enabled.

Yes. Every server includes a subdomain like my-server.ezplayhost.com, and you can change it anytime in the dashboard.

For every server you enable Uptime Kuma (server monitoring) and Game Server Watcher (server status in Discord/Telegram) with one click in the dashboard at no extra cost, plus one bot such as Sinusbot (music bot for Discord/TeamSpeak). Every additional bot costs extra.

Typical initial setup: about 8 minutes. Queues or large installations can take longer. Setup creates the subdomain and DNS records automatically, and for Minecraft also accepts the EULA and installs Geyser.

There is no long-term minimum. Billing is a monthly subscription and automatic renewal can be disabled. Longer terms may qualify for discounts.

You choose the location at checkout: Germany (Falkenstein and Limburg) or France (Roubaix) — all in the EU, connected to the major European exchanges. Low pings for players across Germany, Austria and Switzerland at both locations, and solid latency for the rest of Europe.

The best provider is the one that shows you what you get before you pay: RAM, slots, location, price and cancellation terms. Here the price and resources are visible in the configurator before checkout, there is no minimum term and setup is automated — feel free to compare that with other offers. Rust starts here at 22.05 EUR per month, and setup typically takes about 8 minutes.

Self-hosting costs power, time and a machine that runs around the clock; port forwarding, updates and backups are on you. A rented server is online within minutes, keeps running when your PC is off, and updates and backups are included; data-center DDoS protection is included at every location. For one or two friends on a single evening self-hosting is often fine — for a persistent world, renting pays off.

Yes, you can do it yourself in the customer area using a slider. An upgrade takes effect immediately: you only pay the prorated difference for the remaining term, and the new price applies from the next renewal. A downgrade takes effect on the next renewal date. Your world, settings and subdomain are kept, and depending on the game, a restart is required afterwards. With monthly payment and a minimum term, the change is only possible once that term has ended, and for games with a slot-based plan it is not available.
