We are working on improving the queue as of this week an update has gone out to keep the queue numbers low

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Great for the most part

The servers work well with heavily modded modpacks for the most part. The 3gb of RAM (memory?) is the largest problem I run into. Some downtime with the ques are also a bit annoying but managable. setting up the server initially is a bit confusing. I wish there was a 'profile' type thing were we can have more then one modpack for the server and toggle what ones active or not, because if you want to swap mods you potentially lose your server world if you dont back it up / change it to single player by copying the world file over to your instance.

I love this suggestion but sadly it comes down to cost as we are free we can't afford to store any more user data than we already do.

its so ass, wastes your limited life time.

its so ass.

The queue is so long. The loading time is so long, like searching files, deleting, etc, causing the "Your server has been inactive for a while" which had the AUDACITIY TO PUT ME BACK THE THE QUEUE, which was 280 for the record. 0/10, wastes your time

Best free minecraft hosting

The best free minecraft hosting I came across. They offer fast servers, great but sometimes buggy panel and without any ads. For free stuff it does not get better.

The best hosting ever

The best hosting ever.
Free 19132 port if you are joining from bedrock and 3+2gb ram and their vps is amazing I'm probably buying one later if my Minecraft server gets popular and obviously somethings could improve like more tps and better chunk loading but they keep improving the servers and listening to the community.

Definitely recommend

One of if not the the best free server host out there that I could find. It has all the resources you need for a standard server, with tons of storage and ram. One downside though is that it currently only has one region.

The gift that keeps on giving

Honestly, the service keeps getting better since I started using it. I'm impressed, I came from aternos because I had no freedom to edit mods and config files in modpacks but this has so much more than I could ever ask for. It's actually getting so good that it's worrying: how long can this last without crashing and burning?
