Frequently asked questions

What tick-rate does the server support?

CS2 uses Valve’s subtick system. Inputs are processed at their precise timing within server ticks; CS2 does not offer a freely selectable classic 128-tick mode.

Can I use Workshop maps?

Yes, you can install Workshop maps directly via the control panel and add them to the map rotation. Hundreds of custom maps for training, aim labs, KZ, and creative gamemodes are available.

Is GOTV available?

Yes, GOTV is available for spectators and demo recording. Perfect for tournaments, team scrimmages, and reviewing your own gameplay with a coach.

Can I install plugins via CounterStrikeSharp?

Yes, CounterStrikeSharp (C#) is the leading CS2 plugin framework and is fully supported. You can install admin systems, ranking systems, match management (MatchZy), custom gamemodes, and much more. Plugins are uploaded via the file manager and loaded automatically at server start.

How do I set up competitive matches on my CS2 server?

For competitive matches we recommend MatchZy — it handles warm-up, knife round, match setup, live stats, and GOTV recording automatically. Admins control the match via chat commands. CS2-SimpleAdmin is a lighter alternative for server management without full match orchestration.

How quickly is my CS2 server online after ordering?

Typical initial setup: about 7 minutes. Queues or large installations can take longer. Configure server name, password, tick-rate, and map rotation in the control panel. Plugins via CounterStrikeSharp are active immediately after installation.

Do I get my own subdomain?

Yes. Every server includes a subdomain like my-server.game-serverhosting.com, and you can change it anytime in the dashboard.

What are the free extras?

Every server can enable free add-ons such as Uptime Kuma, Sinusbot, Game Server Watcher, and more with one click in the dashboard.

How quickly is my server online?

Typical initial setup: about 7 minutes. Queues or large installations can take longer.

Is there a minimum contract term?

There is no long-term minimum. Billing is a monthly subscription and automatic renewal can be disabled. Longer terms may qualify for discounts.

Are the servers located in Germany?

You choose the location at checkout: Germany (Falkenstein and Limburg) or France (Roubaix) — all in the EU, connected to the major European exchanges. Low pings for players across Germany, Austria and Switzerland at both locations, and solid latency for the rest of Europe.

Which provider is best for my server?

The best provider is the one that shows you what you get before you pay: RAM, slots, location, price and cancellation terms. Here the price and resources are visible in the configurator before checkout, there is no minimum term and setup is automated — feel free to compare that with other offers.

Should I host the server myself or rent one?

Self-hosting costs power, time and a machine that runs around the clock; port forwarding, updates and backups are on you. A rented server is online within minutes, keeps running when your PC is off, and updates and backups are included; the network protection that applies to your server is shown in the configurator before you order. For one or two friends on a single evening self-hosting is often fine — for a persistent world, renting pays off.
