Large-scale events

Planning something huge?

From a few hundred players to 2,000-player fights on 4 cores. We rehearse it with bots first, and an engineer stays with you on the day.

Lap by lap

How an event works.

Seven steps from your first message to the final report. You are never guessing what happens next.

  1. 1

    Tell us the plan

    Use the quote form. We reply within 24 hours.

  2. 2

    Quick call 15 min

    We cover the expected crowd, game mode, plugins and date.

  3. 3

    Quote and date hold

    You get a fixed quote. A 50% deposit holds your date and books the hardware.

  4. 4

    Prep from 5 days out

    We build or import your world, pre-generate the play area, set up and check your plugins, sort the whitelist or join mode, and give you a join address on vlap.host.

  5. 5
    The rehearsal

    Bot rehearsal

    A full-scale rehearsal with bots at 1.2× your expected peak. You get the report and can watch it live. If the server holds a crowd bigger than yours, you walk into the day knowing it.

  6. 6

    Event day

    A named engineer is on voice with your team and watches the live dashboard. Large events get a hot spare machine ready to take over.

  7. 7

    Afterwards

    We keep your world for 7 days for download and send a report: peak players, game speed over time, and the biggest fight. Overtime is billed after.

Questions

Good to know.

How are events priced?

What happens in the bot rehearsal?
We run scripted players on your server at 1.2× your expected peak, with your world and plugins, so any problem shows up days before the event instead of during it. You get a report and can watch it live.
Will my plugins work?
Most Paper plugins work on Hustle. We set up and check yours during prep. See what we have tested.
What do I get afterwards?
We keep your world for 7 days so you can download it, and we send a report with peak players, game speed over time and the biggest fight.

Bring the whole army.
