Left 4 Dead 2 server hosting

Because a lobby is temporary and a server is not. The session survives people leaving, the campaign rotation and difficulty are set once instead of argued over, and your group connects to the same address every time. For Versus and Survival, where a consistent group and consistent rules are the whole point, it is the difference between a scene and an evening.

Yes, and this is the part most hosting pages get wrong. Custom campaigns in Left 4 Dead 2 are client and server content: the server runs the map, but every player also needs that campaign installed locally from the Workshop, and the server's consistency check will refuse anyone who does not have it. There is no fast-download route for VPK content the way there is in some other Source games. The server's job is to be the single source of truth for which campaigns your group runs, not to deliver them.

Not meaningfully, and be wary of any host that says otherwise. Left 4 Dead 2 is hard-coded to thirty tick. The community tools that raise it, such as Tickrate Enabler and L4DToolz, work by patching the running process in memory, which is a different thing from a setting you flip in a config file. What you can change from the panel is difficulty, campaign rotation, the director's behaviour and the whole SourceMod config.

Not out of the box. Standard Left 4 Dead 2 is built around four survivors, and eight in Versus. Going beyond that needs SourceMod plugins such as the various coop player count extensions, which work but change the balance considerably. We will support SourceMod so it is your call.

Source dedicated servers are genuinely light on resources, which makes this one of the cheapest ways to give a group a permanent home. Pricing will be published when orders open, but do not expect it to be the expensive item in your hosting.

We are templating it now, with SourceMod support, config editing and RCON console access. Watch this page for the order button.
