Set up by us
Sized from published requirements rather than our own benchmark, so we build it by hand and check it before handing it over.
Order it like any other server. One of us sets it up, checks it, and hands over the same console, files and backups every server gets.

The solid bar is the smallest plan that runs Nuclear Option. Faded bars run it with room to spare. Greyed plans sit outside its range. Player counts are what the plan carries, not a benchmark of this game.
How busy it is
Nuclear Option against the other shooter games.
Peak concurrent players on Steam, measured rather than estimated. Bars are to scale against each other, so a game almost nobody plays looks like one.

What players say
Nuclear Option, in the words of people who play it.
Three reviews from Steam, picked by how many other players found them helpful. About the game, not about us, unedited, and linked so you can check.
War thunder top tier was too expensive and life draining, DCS and IL-2 are expensive and full sims that are tough to learn and get into, and Ace Combat is too easy (I also hate time limits in missions). Then there is Nuclear Option, the goldilocks zone of flight sims, combining some of what makes each of those games great into one.
