delta_thames Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 1.0.2.4 is two weeks out and our server host, DayZPriv has yet to push the update. They haven't provided ANY communication on when we can expect the update. The only way to get any information is to submit a support ticket and every answer is "we hope to run the update within the next few days". Is anyone else running with Priv? As a server owner, it's absolutely unacceptable that nearly 80% of the Epoch servers are running the latest update, yet we can't get any information on when we can expect it. We have already begun considering other server options, which is unfortunate because Priv's tech support has been outstanding so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neiljb Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 Dayz priv are useless, I would highly reccomend no one buys a server from them, ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetterDeadThanZed Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 They were a good server host before Epoch. I think they bit off more than they could chew with it. I switched to HFB, but due to their horrendous support times, I switched to Vilayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I switched to HFB, but due to their horrendous support times, I switched to Vilayer. How is Vilayer working out for you? We are thinking about getting one of their clan packages so we can bundle our website and TS with the server. The fact that they use the same interface as HFB scares the hell out of me since we had our server go down for nearly a week when the start/stop function on the CP broke and the support times was ridiculous. Also, what's the catch on the Vilayer clan packages? 512 voice slots + web hosting + gaming slots seems a little too good to be true for the prices they quote in the packages relative to a standalone server.

Their control panel is better than any other host I've had (I've probably tried 5 of them) and you have complete access to everything. I can connect to the database from my VPS for things like the hivetool and pricelist, which run on a VPS that I rent elsewhere. While it's true they use TCAdmin like HFB, they have more options available on it. I also don't think they are going to force a sudden database update when they make 1.0.2.5 available, like HFB did to me - forcing the 1.0.2.4 database update when I was still running 1.0.2.3. Vilayer's support response times are better than HFB, but the support manager "John Smith" is sort of a douchebag with his replies, but at least it's better than HFB. I don't have the clan package so I can't comment on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fr1nk Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 Vilayer has had its own share of problems (like any other host), but they seem ok recently. They also leave it up to server owners when they want to push an update through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xrxex Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Vert, it's like having your own dedi box without the dedi box price. I would seriously recommend them. It's 4 am here and that means it's 10 am where the guy I'm talking to is and I sent an email anyways, expecting to receive a response a few hours from now, but instead I received an email a minute later. Then I sent two more emails and both of those emails were answered within 5 minutes. You really can't get much better than that. That's top notch customer service. I'll be ordering my server from them in a weeks time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matijs Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 This is a good example of why a host for 1 particular game is not recommended, you just get all the shit. You can always get a cheap vps for 10$ if you search for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
