Not going to happen sorry
IMPORTANT: You must have a BF2 dedicated server running on the IP/port in your application. If no server is detected, the application cannot be processed and will be deleted.
Which means you will not be given the files until your server is running vBF2 accessible to the internet.
Some other things to consider:
2 GB of ram would be the minimum for a single game server server.
100 Mb/s connection with a TB or two of bandwidth per month should be more than plenty for a constantly packed 100 player server.
CPU usage however is the main thing. As you well know, BF2 only runs on a single core. So you want as much CPU power as possible, it's all about the Ghz. My server is running Windows Server 2012 and using a AMD Phenom II X6 1045T (2.7 Ghz), and it could handle 100 players just fine, in addition to PR Murmur running on a separate core, plus a whole bunch of other scripts and services running for PR Development tasks. But those running at lower clock speeds like 2.0, 2.2 Ghz etc, you might be running it a bit close. Can't hurt to try though .
Those hosting the game server in a virtual machine, you are going to have issues. One of our servers in the Open BETA was running the same CPU specs as me, but running on an Ubuntu Server VM with a Windows 2008 R2 host, using HyperV as the hypervisor. It had massive issues once it started to hit around 75-80 people, with the Virtual CPU maxing at 100%. So the morale of this story is, if you're running a virtual server, don't expect to be able to host a 100 player server, you're going to have to drop it down to 64 players as a max. Of course though, this might be due to HyperV, a poor CPU, or any other number of issues, so sure, give it a try and let us know how you fair, but just keep it in mind that you might not be able to host a 100p server.

tl;dr - running a server isn't cheap. Consider the next time you want to have a ***** on an internet forum, and put your hand in your pocket for a fiver instead
... I searched a lot in google and not got a conclusive answer ... what hardware and amount of internet (mbps) necessary to run a server 100slots? it is possible to host the server on a VPS (with 10 cores of 2.0GHz for example)? I say this because in my country, a dedicated server with 20mbps DUAL CORE costs about $500.00 dollars ... and a vps with the same 20mbps is ridiculously cheap ... then I would know a hardware necessary to make a calculation if it is possible to stay in a quality VPS ... keep in friends! Thank you all!
