NodeCraft
Rock solid systems that function correctly. Professional and knowledgeable support staff. Real-Time 2-way chat with support as opposed to the "file a ticket and wait forever model of other hosts." During multiple communications with their support staff using the chat tool the experience was positive.
$20/mo for enough space and RAM to be practical. The great news is that they use Linux to host their Unturned servers, which is most efficient and has superior memory management. Their $10 plan chokes your Unturned server at 100% of the 2GB RAM used and not enough disk space for a moderately modded server so you will need the $20 plan to have a well behaved game server.
In conclusion the drawback with NodeCraft is they are stingy with RAM and SSD space. They recently doubled the allocated RAM which puts it at half what they should be offering. Hey fellas, RAM is cheap these days! Share a little. I would recommend NodeCraft if they would offer more RAM and disk space with the virtual game servers. The disk space they offer is too restrictive and would limit the mods.
Pine Hosting
All of the pricing is in British Pounds (GBP), and with the way Biden is tanking the US economy I don't the conversion from US Dollar to British Pound will be economical very long. I've seen Pine criticized on Reddit also. This is a small company with limited staff so you can't expect the instant support of the larger hosting providers. Small niche hosts like Pine will have to make up for this in other ways such as focusing on optimization for the specific game Unturned as opposed to being a general many-game host.
Lyhme Hosting
NOT RECOMMENDED. TERRIBLE! THE ABSOLUTE WORST! Read our Lyhme Hosting review titled "Lyhme Hosting: Fragile People Running a Fragile Service"
Worst experience. Fragile people running a fragile system. Customer front-end is a broken install of TCAdmin. System runs on an old version of Microsoft Windows Server. Of the number of game hosting providers that I have tested and interacted with, there were no others that seemed as completely incompetent and so eager to perceive insult in the most benevolent criticism anywhere or even close. These people are over sensitive pansies to an insane proportion.
ServerBlend
Maybe $12.10 /mo with a 7 day satisfaction refund policy. Looks attractive. https://discord.gg/GT5cNQ9rMG https://my.serverblend.com/cart.php?a=confproduct&i=0

GTX Gaming
Like Pine hosting GTX Gaming is based in Great Brittan. Unlike Pine you can select US Dollars as the currency for pricing data as opposed to GBP. GTX Gaming has a significant community of gamers.
PingPerfect
NOT RECOMMENDED.
Sometimes the ping is good, sometimes it lags so bad you can't even play. Company promises a trial period then refuses to refund your money. The biggest problem we experienced with this hosting provider was trying to get our refund during the trial period. Although their web site offers a limited duration trial, they refuse to refund your money when you end the trial. It required a fraud report to the credit card company to finally get our money back.
On initial connection to your Unturend server hosted by Ping Perfect you will immediately notice a far from perfect ping. How's the irony in that. However, each time the ping settles down after about five minutes and becomes acceptable. So, if your users do not get frustrated and disconnect before then, they might be fine with the ping. Under sever load with 12 or more players connected the system becomes less table.
Poor user interface for configuring your sever, delayed ping stability, and a lack of confidence in the ethical conduct of the company are reasons I would avoid Ping Perfect. They are not worth the hassle even if they are low cost.
SurvivalServers
$36/mo
LogicServers
$10 - $20/mo
Gameserverkings
They charge extra for a dedicated IP address. Pricey for what they offer.
GameServers
gameservers.com cost $1 per player slot, so 12 players $12/mo
HostHavoc
72 hr test period. supports every mod on the Steam workshop. Lots of RAM 6GB! https://hosthavoc.com/
This company offers many slots and a lot of RAM for the price.

IcedHost
Icedhost uses Pterodactyl for their user frontend. cost $9.49 - $16.99
