Here at Nodecraft, we're gamers too, and we know that nothing is more frustrating than lag and crashes.
Unlike other Left 4 Dead 2 server hosting providers, we make sure not to overburden our servers-- that means we maintain an average of only 12 customers per device. This allows your server to access more CPU cores, disk IOs, and RAM. More power per user means your server will have protection against lag.
- 3.8+ GHz Processor (CPU)
Our servers majoritively use an Intel® Xeon® E-2174G or equivalent.
- 64GB ECC RAM
Error correcting and highly clocked, this RAM is deployed for high speed performance and stability.
- Enterprise Grade Solid State Drives (SSD)
We use Enterprise SSDs to power all customer game servers.
- Enterprise Grade Hard Disk
We host our game servers on the SSD, but backups, the OS, and other files not required by your game server are run on standard disks.
- DDoS Protection and High Performance Network
DDoS attacks are a constant threat to game servers. Our network is built for network attack reliance.
- Linux OS
We've built our entire infrastructure on top of a Linux ecosystem to focus on performance, security, and stability.

Left 4 Dead 2
Left 4 Dead 2 is co-op action-horror FPS game. It's a sequel to the original L4D, and has four new survivors to play as they make their escape. The original weapons make a return in this sequel, but they've added exciting new weapons like chainsaws, grenade launchers, and even a frying pan. The addition of melee weapons, 10 to be exact, was a major feature of this game.
Other new additions to L4D2 include five new campaigns for the co-op, versus, and survival game modes. There are also dangerous new types of special zombies like the Mudmen. The artificial intelligence (AI) of the game, known as the "Director," has been upgraded to the Director 2.0. This AI drives your gameplay experience by customizing enemy zombie population, effects, and even music based on your performance. The Director 2.0 is also able to customize level layout, world objects, weather, and lighting to make the game fun to replay.
