Survival & crafting

Wipe day should not be the day it falls over.

Rust punishes weak single-thread performance and thin memory more than almost anything else we host. These run on fast AMD EPYC and Ryzen/Xeon cores with room for a full plugin stack.

Deploy a Rust server All games

from $11.99/mo · no setup fee · cancel any time

On every plan

The same platform, whichever game you run.

Full Pterodactyl panel

Console, file manager, SFTP, scheduled tasks, sub-users and database access. Not a cut-down skin over it.

Backups on a schedule

Set the cadence you want and restore to a point in time from the panel, without opening a ticket.

DDoS protection included

Every node sits behind DDoS protection from our network providers, on every plan — not an upsell on the checkout page.

Switch version or build anytime

Change the server build, game version or startup flags from the panel and restart. No reinstall, no ticket.

Move region once per cycle

If your players move, the server can follow. We handle the world and config transfer.

No player-slot billing

You pay for memory. Slots are a config value you set, not a line item we charge for.

Server location

Instant setup where we have capacity · otherwise usually ready within 2 hours

Need more than 32 GB, or a whole box to yourself? Look at dedicated servers.

Server builds

Run the build your players expect.

Switch between these from the panel and restart. Changing build is not a reinstall and never needs a ticket.

  • Vanilla
  • Oxide / uMod
  • Carbon

Running Rust

What actually matters for this one.

Oxide and Carbon preinstalled on request

Tell us which framework you want on the egg and it is there on first boot, updated with the game.

Wipe schedules you control

Map and blueprint wipes run from the panel scheduler. Seed and size changes are a config edit, not a support request.

Forced updates handled

Rust breaks plugins on the first Thursday. The server pulls the new build on restart so you are not chasing it manually.

Sizing

How much memory you actually need.

Guidance, not a hard limit. To move to a bigger plan, contact us on Discord or by email.

Up to 50 players 8 GB
Vanilla or a light plugin set
50 – 150 players 16 GB

Rust questions

Before you order.

Something else on your mind? Ask on Discord and a person who runs the nodes will answer.

Ask on Discord

Do you support custom maps?

Yes — upload a .map file over SFTP or point the server at a map URL in the startup flags.

Can I run Rust:Staging or a beta branch?

Yes, the branch is a startup variable you can change from the panel.

Every Rust server runs on the same Pterodactyl install at panel.gghost.cloud. Run several games on one account and manage them from one place, on one invoice.

Spin up a Rust server tonight.

No setup fee and no contract. Deploy it, and if it is not what you wanted, cancel from app.gghost.cloud before the next cycle.
