I think you will need 3 TB bandwith,i can never be sure because the number of players on the server will not be always 250 .

Depends. Check the different hosts. You can get pretty good discounts with most hosting companies.

at an avg it should cost you 15$-20$
i suggest use gameservers
cuz if VPN gets DDoSed the Companies dont provide you with a back , uare all on your own
but if a Gameserver gets DDoSed the company provides u wid a backup
correct me if i m wrong

It depends on how man players the server has at one time. Since it probably won't have 250 players all the time, the estimate of 3TB would probably be more than enough.

A $25 VPS will be more than enough. (If you're actually filling 250 slots, not just running it)
I'd say 2-4GB's ram, 2+GHz CPU and unlimited - 1TB of bandwidth /month
That is, of course, the best bang for your buck to have little to no lag.
I had a testserver filled with over 200 NPC's and I bought the $5 plan from BurstNET which had a visible amount of lag, but still playable.
So, anywhere from 20+ from a cheap site will be good.
Don't buy a $5 vps for $20... Don't get ripped off..
