How our protection works

Left 4 Dead 2 hosting questions, answered

Why use a dedicated L4D2 server?

So your campaigns run with low, stable ping and no host migration — and you can install SourceMod to lift the 4-player co-op cap.

How do I get more than 4 players?

Vanilla co-op caps at 4 survivors. Install SourceMod plus a plugin (or a mutation) and raise sv_maxplayers to run 5–8+ player campaigns — the standard community setup.

What port does it use?

UDP 27015 by default, within the Source 27015–27050 range — and on our managed hosting it's opened for you.

Can I run add-on campaigns?

Yes — install Workshop add-on maps and SourceMod plugins from the panel, with FastDL for quick client downloads.

Is it DDoS protected?

Always — every server is filtered through our multi-Tbps Frankfurt network.

How fast is setup?

Automatic — your server is ready within minutes of checkout.

How much does Left 4 Dead 2 server hosting cost?

Left 4 Dead 2 server plans start from €9.00 per month, with Anti-DDoS protection included. The final price depends on the slots and resources you choose at checkout, and you can upgrade at any time.
