Low Latency (No Lag) Servers with DDoS Protection

CS:S 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 Counter-Strike Source 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 the common headaches of lag and crashes.

  • 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.

Game BIO:
Counter-Strike: Source

Counter-Strike Source is a team-based, objective-oriented first-person-shooter. It's a remake of the original Counter-Strike using the Source game engine.

The game has a few modes with different objectives such as diffusing the bomb, rescuing hostages, or killing everyone on the opposing team. Games are played by the round and when you die in a round, you're dead. You don't respawn until the next round starts. Your goal is to win more rounds than the other guys in order to win your match.

    Securing Payments

    Nodecraft protects your payment information by using a PCI certified payment gateway. In doing so Nodecraft never has direct access to any of your sensitive payment details. All communication between customers, Nodecraft, and the payment gateway are secured using TLS (SSL) encryption and modern tokenization.

  • 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

    • A grace period of 3 days, after which unpaid subscriptions are automatically terminated.

    Read more about when you will be billed in our knowledgebase.

  • What is your refund policy?

  • Do my servers run 24/7?

    Your server with Nodecraft is available to be online 24/7. Server owners and admins can start and stop the server at their discretion, but as long as it is set to online, it is running.

  • Do servers include DDoS Protection?

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

  • Do you provide dedicated IPs?

    Yes, all of our servers are issued a dedicated IP address that will only be used by one customer at a time. We also provide a DNS Hostname for each server which can be used interchangeably.

  • 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.

    Learn more about Instances and how to use them.

  • How many player slots does my server have?

    Nodecraft does not limit player slots on your server, so you can have as many player slots as the game allows!

    1. Login to your Nodecraft account and visit the Billing Overview.

    2. Click on the game server subscription you'd like to cancel.

    3. Find the cancellation page from the tabbed navigation.

    4. Complete the cancellation form.

  • How are subscription recommendations determined?

    We know that choosing the right plan can be daunting. To make the process easier for people who might need more help, we have expanded our recommendation engine to a three-tier system. Select select a game or two to get started.
