Rust server hosting

Rust server hosting,
your map, your wipes.

Most of your players in India, Malaysia or Indonesia? A Singapore VPS gives them a much lower ping.

Built for Rust

Set up the way
your community plays.

Every server comes with a full game panel, so you can change files, settings and mods yourself.

Plugins your way

Install Oxide (uMod) or Carbon, then add plugins like kits, teleports and clans through the file manager or SFTP.

Room for big maps

Map size and the number of buildings drive memory use. Bigger maps and long wipes need more RAM, so the plans go up to 32 GB.

Your wipe schedule

Facepunch forces a map wipe with the monthly update on the first Thursday of each month. Between those, wipe as often as your community likes.

DDoS protection, built in

Every game server includes DDoS protection, always on and at no extra cost.

How it works

From order to online.

  1. Choose a game and plan

    Pick the game, its server software where there is a choice, and the size that fits your player count.

  2. Pay

    Sign in with Discord or email, check the total and pay. Nothing is set up before payment.

  3. Play

    Your server appears in the dashboard with its join address and game panel, ready to configure.

Players in Asia?

Our one-click game servers run in Dallas and Amsterdam. For players in India, Malaysia or Indonesia, a Singapore VPS gives a much lower ping. You install the game server yourself, with full root access.

Questions

Before you order.

How many players can a Rust server hold?+

It depends on map size and plugins. As a guide, Advanced suits about 25 players on a small map, Premium about 100 and Titan about 200.

Can I use Oxide or Carbon plugins?+

Yes. Install Oxide (uMod) or Carbon, then upload plugins to its plugins folder through the file manager or SFTP.

Can I use a custom map?+

Yes. Set your own world size and seed, or load a custom map from a URL, in the game panel's startup settings.

When does a Rust server wipe?+

Facepunch forces a wipe with the monthly update on the first Thursday of each month. You can wipe more often yourself by removing the map and save files.

Are game servers protected from DDoS attacks?+

Yes. Every game server includes DDoS protection, always on and at no extra cost.

How do I manage the server after it is live?+

Open it from the Nodewave dashboard. The game panel has the live console, files, SFTP access and startup settings.
