Rent a Left 4 Dead 2 Server

Yes, SourceMod is fully supported. You can install custom mutations, admin tools, and gameplay changes for a fully customised L4D2 experience.

Yes, all official campaigns and custom maps are supported. Upload your own campaigns and maps as `.vpk` files to the addons folder via the file manager; the server does not pull in Workshop collections automatically.

Yes, with the MultiSlots SourceMod plugin you can raise the player count beyond 4 for co-op — 8 or more is common. Perfect for larger groups wanting to tackle campaigns or Versus together. We recommend a little extra RAM for 8+ players to keep performance stable.

Set the game mode via the server config (`mp_gamemode`): `coop`, `versus`, `survival`, or `scavenge`. The change applies on the next map change or server restart. With an RTV (Rock The Vote) plugin, players can even vote for the next mode or campaign themselves.

Two ways: enter a Workshop collection ID in the server config for automatic download, or upload `.vpk` files directly to the `addons` folder via the file manager. After a restart the maps appear in your campaign rotation.

Typical initial setup: about 6 minutes. Queues or large installations can take longer. Install SourceMod, set your Workshop collection ID, and configure your campaign rotation in the control panel. Players connect via the in-game server browser using your subdomain.

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

For every server you enable Uptime Kuma (server monitoring) and Game Server Watcher (server status in Discord/Telegram) with one click in the dashboard at no extra cost, plus one bot such as Sinusbot (music bot for Discord/TeamSpeak). Every additional bot costs extra.

Typical initial setup: about 6 minutes. Queues or large installations can take longer. Setup creates the subdomain and DNS records automatically, and for Minecraft also accepts the EULA and installs Geyser.

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

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.

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. Left 4 Dead 2 starts here at 3.17 EUR per month, and setup typically takes about 6 minutes.

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; data-center DDoS protection is included at every location. For one or two friends on a single evening self-hosting is often fine — for a persistent world, renting pays off.

Yes, you can do it yourself in the customer area using a slider. An upgrade takes effect immediately: you only pay the prorated difference for the remaining term, and the new price applies from the next renewal. A downgrade takes effect on the next renewal date. Your world, settings and subdomain are kept, and depending on the game, a restart is required afterwards. With monthly payment and a minimum term, the change is only possible once that term has ended, and for games with a slot-based plan it is not available.
