VGSources / Best Barotrauma Server Hosts / TickServ Barotrauma Server Hosting
What it is
TickServ hosts dedicated Barotrauma servers billed by the hours they run. The Eco 4 GB plan is listed at €0.02, paid once, billed per started hour, with 2 vCPU, shared CPU, and 4 GB RAM. A free hour is available on each account without a bank card, on the recommended Eco configuration; there is no mandatory subscription. When nobody is connected, the server shuts down automatically, and a stopped server costs €0. Barotrauma servers take 8 players by default and support up to 16. They are not publicly listed in the game's browser and use a password shared with players. Campaign progress is saved when the server shuts down and restored on its next start. Mods use Steam Workshop, and each player must install exactly the same mod list. The game and query ports are already configured, so customers do not need to open ports. TickServ does not provide an account console for Barotrauma kick and ban commands because the game's console interface is incompatible with its controls. Server locations include Germany, France, the United Kingdom, and Quebec, with location selected at creation.
