Dedicated Servers

[VincentsAnimations]

What exactly does a dedicated server mean? I’ve gotten a little bit of information from other people but I decided to just ask you guys (or girls). I’ve heard of headless commands and I’ve wondered the purpose of having a headless host. Does it just reduce the likelyhood of having the server crash? I don’t know, I don’t host servers professionally like most of you guys. So let me know.

I don’t host servers either. A dedicated server is one made for other players to play on and is usually open for multiple hours (or even days). Headless means that the game produces no graphical output, reducing the CPU and/or GPU load.

A dedicated server is basically a computer that’s all yours, running just for your needs—no noisy neighbors hogging resources like on shared servers. Headless commands? That’s just fancy talk for running a server without a monitor, saving resources and keeping things smooth. As for crashes, it’s more about having the power and control to keep things stable. If you ever want to dive into dedicated server hosting, HostNoc’s got your back with top-notch options.
