Getting started
Your first hour on Left 4 Dead 2
1
Connect
Your address and port are on the server page in the panel. Paste the address into Left 4 Dead 2's multiplayer screen; if it asks for a port separately, use the one the panel lists — not one from a forum post.
2
Add your content
Supported here: Custom campaigns. Upload through the panel's file manager, or over SFTP for anything large, then restart from the console.

When it misbehaves
Open a ticket from the billing portal — it is tied to your account, so we can find your server straight away. The FAQ covers backups, ports and RAM ceilings.
Not sure about the size?
The calculator above uses the numbers we measured on our own Left 4 Dead 2 servers — 2 GB to boot, about 0.2 GB per concurrent player. If you'd rather compare every plan side by side, they're on the pricing page.
