BeamMP hosting — BeamNG.drive multiplayer for a friends squad (2026)
This page is for a BeamMP dedicated server — the multiplayer mod for BeamNG.drive — so a Discord squad can race, cruise, tow, or wreck on the same map without relying on someone’s home PC. It is not the same job as Night 55 Stormworks (Build and Rescue vehicles), Night 73 Farming Simulator, Night 71 FiveM, or Night 34 Space Engineers. Empyrion already shipped as Night 39; Citadel / Icarus / Grounded / Abiotic Factor / Once Human slugs were taken — BeamMP is the next unused widely-hosted alternate (checked 24 Oct 2026, NZDT). Among our six hosts: Shockbyte, BisectHosting, and GameTeam sell BeamMP (product URLs returned 200 on full GET — curl HEAD 403 is not absence). Apex Hosting, Nodecraft, and PebbleHost BeamMP / BeamNG paths we tried returned 404 / no SKU — not invented TBD pricing. Mod / map claims below come only from each host’s own BeamMP product copy or FAQ.
RAM / slots / session honesty
- Shockbyte printed tiers: Stock 8 players / 1 GB, Tune 16 players / 2 GB, Redline 32 players / 3 GB. Small Discord nights often fit Stock/Tune; bigger public lobbies lean Redline — still confirm with your mod/map load.
- GameTeam FAQ: 4–8 GB RAM (BeamMP synchronises full soft-body vehicle state; memory rises with each connected car). Practical players 8–16 for stable sessions — “Unlimited Player Slots” marketing is a ceiling, not a promise that 50 cars will stay smooth.
- BisectHosting: BisectOne ~/GB ladder — exact BeamMP GB floor TBD at checkout; dial RAM for your car/mod count rather than copying Minecraft tables.
- Client + server + mods: every client needs BeamMP + matching vehicle/map mods. Upload mods into the host’s documented path (GameTeam: server Resources folder pushes to joiners; Shockbyte: Full File Access + Mod Support badge; Bisect: Modding Support). Backup before wipe night / game updates — BeamMP can break for a few days after BeamNG patches.
Mods / maps — host claims only
- Shockbyte: Landing lists Mod Support and Full File Access, plus Global Locations, Automatic Backups, Self-Serve Guides, Easy Configuration, 72hr Self-Serve Refund, DDoS, 99.9% Uptime. Meta: “full mod support.” A one-click BeamMP mod marketplace is not named beyond Mod Support + Full File Access.
- BisectHosting: Page lists Modding Support; reviews mention easy mod downloads in the panel. Hero: BeamMP server hosting from 21 global locations. Exact $/GB plan total rendered as “… / GB” on the page we read (TBD at checkout); BisectOne llms.txt cites ~$2.99/GB network-wide. Location selector has shown out of stock / waitlist.
- GameTeam: Title/FAQ: BeamNG.drive with BeamMP. FAQ: “Can I install mods…? Yes. BeamMP loads vehicle and map mods from the server Resources folder and pushes them to joining players automatically.” Marketing UI shows Mods & Plugins. Clearest named BeamMP mod-push claim among our six. Settings live in ServerConfig.toml per FAQ.
- Apex / Nodecraft / PebbleHost: No sellable BeamMP / BeamNG product page to quote mods or price — marked 404 / no SKU.
BeamMP mods are vehicles and maps, not Minecraft one-click modpacks. Prefer hosts that document file access or a Resources-folder push. Match client BeamMP versions, and expect post-patch downtime. See Night 6 mods & plugins.

Oceania / AU–NZ–SG latency wedge
- Shockbyte: Melbourne-based brand + BeamMP product with Global Locations — still pick the node on order and ping-test with cars loaded (soft-body sync hates long routes).
- BisectHosting: 21 locations marketed; stock/waitlist risk is real on the page we read.
- GameTeam: Oceania for BeamMP not evidenced as AU/SG-first on the page we read — TBD; ping-test.
- Apex / Nodecraft / PebbleHost: no BeamMP SKU — not Oceania options for this game (Nodecraft’s Sydney/Melbourne/Auckland on other titles do not transfer).
Buy monthly through the first week with your mod/map list loaded, measure everyone’s ping (especially crashes / towing / convoy), then commit. See the Oceania ping guide.
Practical shortlist (not rankings)
- Clearest printed tiers under ~$10: Shockbyte Stock / Tune / Redline — confirm AU node + Full File Access upload path at checkout.
- Named Modding Support + dial-GB: BisectHosting BisectOne — price TBD at checkout; watch Australia stock/waitlist.
- Clearest BeamMP Resources / mod-push FAQ + budget $/GB: GameTeam at 4–8 GB+ — ping-test if Oceania matters.
- Apex / Nodecraft / PebbleHost: BeamMP no SKU — do not invent a plan.
- Want boats/planes/logic instead of BeamNG soft-body: see Night 55 Stormworks — different product.
