Okay so if I got this right the host is in a student dorm?
Is there any possibility to upgrade the bandwidth to the host, or is it maxed out?
Also, have you been looking at remote hosting (i.e letting someone lend you their computer / and or connection with a remote control access) possibilities? I could offer myself for the latter part soon but I also believe it's a matter of trust of course.
I'm not asking you to do this for free obviously. I'd be willing to donate a part of the required amount for a bandwidth upgrade per month and I'm sure other people are willing to do so as well.
I've also been advertising Haven & Hearth on different forums, but most fall off due to either
1) low population
2) lag coming when server holds 350+ players, bottlenecking the population capabilities.
If we could get a thorough explanation on possible bandwidth or server upgrades I'd really appreciate it.
I'm also not against a subscription fee and I don't believe it's a bad idea for the game. Keeping it low could still attract a large amount of players, with maybe the first month free for new players to try out the depth of the game.

Re: Bandwidth upgrade
There were several offerings concerning this in Server crashes, lags, bugs issues thread, and some other threads as well. I think L&J guys should think it over again. Me and my other friend, we are willing to pay each 100€ in first run if they post in the chosen hosting, its prize and they promise they will go through all that pain to migrate the server there, once we collect enough money for at least two years of running. Cmon guys, it wont be more than 3k€ and we have 300+ players here. Smack the shit out of us just to get enough money for the H´nH nirvana

Re: Bandwidth upgrade
Honestly i wouldn't mind at all if this game had a (small) monthly fee.
Personally i'd pay about as much as ai used to for WoW, just for less lag, but i don't want to scare off all those people who are cheap fucks either.

Shame on you for expressing your distaste for lag and your willingness to donate your money for the better of the game.

There just have been dozens of these threads and I feel no need to discuss the same shit in each and everyone of them. The devs will come up with a solution, until then donate whatever you can.
