DDOS PROTECTION

Keep your Team Fortress 2 server safe from attacks and unauthorized access. We've built enterprise-grade security into every plan so your competitive matches and community servers stay online, even when griefers or bad actors try to bring the server down mid-round.

Our infrastructure includes advanced DDoS protection on all plans, capable of absorbing high-volume attacks without affecting tickrate or in-game performance. Your team stays focused on the point, not on the connection.

FULL FILE ACCESS & PLUGIN SUPPORT

Take complete control of your Team Fortress 2 server with full SFTP access and a powerful in-browser control panel. Install SourceMod, Metamod:Source, and any classic TF2 plugin - MGEMod, TF2Jump, PASS Time, DodgeBall, Randomizer, custom class limits - add SourceTV demo recording, upload custom maps and workshop content, edit your server.cfg and mapcycle, and fine-tune every setting without restrictions.

Whether you're running competitive 6v6, MGE, Jump, Trade, Achievement, X10, or a private practice server, our 24/7 support team can help with plugin setup and performance tuning.

What is Team Fortress 2?

Team Fortress 2 is Valve's iconic team-based hero shooter - the class-based multiplayer that defined the genre. With nine distinct classes, chaotic teamfights, deep hat economies, and nearly two decades of legacy content, TF2 remains one of the most-played games on Steam and boasts a legendary community-server scene. Casual, competitive, MGE, Dodgeball, Rocket Jump, Surf, Trade, X10, achievement, and countless other modes keep the servers full every day.

Running your own Team Fortress 2 dedicated server gives you complete control over your community. Host a private 6v6 competitive server, a 24-slot standard casual match, or a full 32-slot community server stacked with SourceMod and Metamod:Source plugins. Our infrastructure is tuned for TF2 with high-clock CPUs, NVMe storage, and enterprise-grade DDoS protection so your matches stay smooth and lag-free.

What your Team Fortress 2 server needs

For Team Fortress 2 we suggest 2 GB for up to 12 players, 3 GB for up to 24 players and 4 GB for up to 32 players, the same sizes the plan picker above recommends. TF2 runs on Valve's Source dedicated server, which is modest on resources but demanding on responsiveness. Source is single-thread sensitive, so a high-clock CPU is what keeps tickrate steady, our AMD Ryzen 9 hardware is ideal. Size your player slots to the mode: 12 for 6v6, 24 for casual, or a full 32 for a busy community server. NVMe storage keeps map loads and plugin-heavy configs snappy.

SourceMod, Metamod, and custom maps

Install SourceMod and Metamod:Source, add custom maps and plugins, and configure everything through full file access. Run any game mode with the plugins your community loves.

The Wabbanode edge

Instant setup, NVMe storage, enterprise DDoS protection, and free backups come standard, with 24/7 support to keep your matches lag-free.
