Low Latency (No Lag) Servers with DDoS Protection

Steve freezing due to lag, while surrounded by dangerous mobs.

We're gamers too, and we know that nothing is more frustrating than lag and crashes.

Unlike other The Forest server hosting providers, we make sure not to overburden our servers— this means we average only 12 customers per device. This allows your instance to access more CPU cores, disk IOs, and RAM. More power per user means you will have protection against the common headaches of lag and crashes.

  • 3.8+ GHz Processor (CPU)

    Our servers majoritively use an Intel® Xeon® E-2174G or equivalent.

  • 64GB ECC RAM

    Error correcting and highly clocked, this RAM is deployed for high speed performance and stability.

  • Enterprise Grade Solid State Drives (SSD)

    We use Enterprise SSDs to power all customer game servers.

  • Enterprise Grade Hard Disk

    We host our game servers on the SSD, but backups, the OS, and other files not required by your game server are run on standard disks.

  • DDoS Protection and High Performance Network

    DDoS attacks are a constant threat to game servers. Our network is built for network attack reliance.

  • Linux OS

    We've built our entire infrastructure on top of a Linux ecosystem to focus on performance, security, and stability.

Customer Reviews:

Still on the fence? Here's some nice stuff people have said about us.

"Great Minecraft hosting service. Far better than the hosting service I previously used for my server. Overall it's very clean looking, well designed, and has great features."
"The user interface on the website is extremely easy to use while still being complex enough to get creative. Almost every question I've had was already answered in the Knowledge Base. The one time I have had an issue requiring staff assistance they were very helpful and some the issue in a short amount of time."
"I have used Nodecraft on and off for some time. Support 10 out of 10To get in touch for help or even a update to a question, is less then a minute with the chat service.Last problem was a hardware problem and it was resolved under 6 hours. I can not ask better then that!!!!! Keep in mind that was on weekend hours not during normal hours."
"Their control panel for Minecraft, "NodePanel", is the best designed interface that I've seen for working on your Minecraft mod-pack."
