Pick a game, pick a location, and get a server that's ready to play with a full control panel behind it. No manual installs, no surprises.
NextHost vs. international hosting providers
Most of the big game hosts are good at what they do - they just weren't built for players.
Compared against international hosting providers as a category, not against any named provider. The response times in the locations section are measured from your own browser.
