Low Latency (No Lag) Servers with DDoS Protection

L4D player freezing due to lag, while surrounded by dangerous enemies.

We're gamers too, and we know that nothing is more frustrating than laggy, crashing servers. Unlike other Left 4 Dead dedicated 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 primarily 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 resilience.

  • Linux OS

    We've built our entire infrastructure on top of a Linux ecosystem to focus on performance, security, and stability.

Customer Reviews:

Still on the fence? Here's some nice stuff people have said about us.

"I've been with many different hosting providers, but NodeCraft has really impressed me. The panel is superb and the server performance is quite impressive.I'd definitely recommend NodeCraft to anyone who wants to have a reliable and fast server."
"The user interface on the website is extremely easy to use while still being complex enough to get creative. Almost every question I've had was already answered in the Knowledge Base. The one time I have had an issue requiring staff assistance they were very helpful and some the issue in a short amount of time. I would highly recommend anybody who is looking for hosting to use NodeCraft."
"I have been a Nodecraft member for more than two years, and I have never encountered any problems. I run a modded server with 200+ mods on the blackhole service, and the service is smooth with negligible latency. The staff is very friendly and extremely helpful. James Ross, the operations manager, is extraordinary and a true asset to Nodecraft Hosting L.L.C. For the friendly staff alone it is worth the money, and they have services starting at $10 a month. I can not recommend them enough!"
"I love the simplicity of the service and the ability to support my favorite creators with their promo codes for the first month. I'm also in love with the mobile app and Overwolf integrations!"

Game BIO:
Left 4 Dead

Left 4 Dead is a cooperative action-horror FPS game where you and up to three other teammates explore a post-apocalypic city as you rush to make your escape. You will experience both the rush of fighting off huge zombie hordes and the anxiety of exploring pitch-black, zombie-infested environments with only a flashlight to see the threats.

The game takes place in the aftermath of a zombie outbreak. You and your squad are the heroes, aptly refered to as the "Survivors." There are four game modes for you to play: the single-player campaign mode, the co-op campaign mode, an online eight-player versus mode, and the four-player survival mode.

All game modes feature an AI (referred to as the "Director") that controls the pace of the level, the item placements, and dynamic events to create a fun, unique, and replayable gaming experience.

  • Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan?

    You can automatically upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time via the billing dashboard, which you will have access to as soon as you log in. You can learn more about the process in our upgrading/downgrade guide.

  • When will I be billed?

    Understanding the billing for your game server subscription is important to every server owner. Nodecraft offers a transparent and simple subscription service that ensures you always know when payments are coming and offers full control so there are no surprises.

    Every game server subscription is billed with:

    • Full subscription management, cancel anytime

    • Payment Reminder 7 days before autopay

    Our data centers have both external and internal packet scrubbing to protect against large-scale attacks against each server.

  • What is an instance?

    Nodecraft allows users to save and swap between games and modpacks by utilizing the server instances available to each plan. These instances can be thought of like save slots that are able to hold a game server's files in a saved state for you to pop back into your server to play later.
