When you need more than a managed game-server slot, multiple servers, custom mods, voice/comms apps, mission-gen tooling, your own scripts, that's the Dedicated tier.
/servers/other, bare-metal or Windows VM hosts.
When to pick this
You want to run more than one game server side-by-side
You run companion tooling (LotATC, Tacview server, SRS, FunkMan, custom Lua)
You need RDP / shell access for ad-hoc admin work
You’re running a campaign with persistent state across multiple maps
What you get
AMD EPYC compute, NVMe storage, 10 Gbps uplink
Either a Windows VM or a dedicated bare-metal box, your call
Full RDP / SSH access, your own admin credentials
Same Fox3 support team for help when you want it
What you give up
On a dedicated host you manage the game install - DCS/IL-2 updates, mods, missions, configs. Auto-update doesn’t apply unless you wire it up yourself. The trade-off is full control.
Hybrid setups
A common pattern: managed Fox3 game servers for the public-facing flight nights, plus a dedicated host for tooling (LotATC, Tacview server, mission generator). Ask us during onboarding, we can sketch the right split for your group.
