WHY SLASHPLAY
CS2
01

Live in under 30 seconds

Pick a size, click deploy, and your dedicated Counter-Strike 2 server is up on the Source 2 engine — no SSH, no server.cfg wrangling, no setup.

02

Built for competitive play

A full dedicated CS2 server — run 5v5 comp, retakes, surf, bhop or custom maps. Starts on de_dust2 and you change maps from the console.

03

From $0.03 per hour

Billed by the hour, only while the server is running. No subscription and no monthly fee — stop it and you pay just a few cents a month to keep your configs saved.

04

Password & RCON built in

Servers are password-protected out of the box. You get a separate join password to share with friends, kept distinct from the RCON admin password so inviting players never hands over control.

05

One-click connect

Copy the full `connect <ip>; password <pw>` command straight into the console, or hit Launch in Steam and it joins automatically — password and all.

06

EU low latency

Hosted in Germany on fast hardware for smooth, low-ping competitive play across Europe.

WHAT YOU GET
EVERY SERVER

A full dedicated CS2 server, ready to play

HOW IT WORKS
3 STEPS

From sign-in to in-game in under a minute

1

Sign in with Discord

Takes seconds — sign in and you're ready to deploy. You only pay for the hours your server runs.

Pick CS2 and a size, then hit deploy. Your server is live in seconds.

3

Connect & play

Copy the connect command into the console or click Launch in Steam, and share it with your friends.

SCHEDULING
ON AUTOPILOT

Schedule your CS2 servers to run automatically

Set start and stop windows and your servers spin up and shut down on their own — ideal for recurring scrims and match nights. You only pay for the hours they run, so there's no cost sitting between sessions.

TEAM SCRIMS

4 servers, 2 hours a week

Need four CS2 servers running two hours each for weekly practice? Schedule each to start at scrim time and stop after — no manual spin-up, and no idle cost between sessions.

MATCH NIGHTS

Auto-start every Tue & Thu

Bring the comp server online every Tuesday and Thursday from 8–11pm for league nights, then have it shut down automatically.

NO IDLE COST

Pay only for play windows

Between sessions the server is off and billing stops — you're never paying for an empty server sitting idle.

TEAM & ACCESS
INVITE YOUR SQUAD

Invite your team — you control what they can do

Add teammates and pick their access. Some just see the live connect address and join; others get start, stop, and full management. RCON, settings, and billing stay locked to whoever you choose — together with the scheduler, it's a strong setup for any team or community.

TEAMMATES CAN JOIN

Squad joins, no admin access

Invite your team so they can see the live connect address and hop in — without access to RCON, settings, or billing.

SHARE ADMIN

Hand a co-captain control

Give a co-captain start/stop and full management rights to run scrims and matches when you're not around.

COMMUNITY ROLES

Helpers launch, not bill

Add helpers who can spin up match servers but can't touch billing or delete saved configs.

FAQ
CS2 HOSTING

CS2 server hosting questions

How much does a CS2 server cost?

Counter-Strike 2 servers start at $0.03 per hour for a small instance, billed by the hour only while the server is running. There's no subscription or monthly fee — when you stop the server you pay just a few cents a month to keep your configs saved.

Do I need a subscription?

No — it's pay-as-you-go. You buy tokens and spend them by the hour, so you only pay for the time your CS2 server actually runs. No subscription and no monthly fee.

How do I connect to my CS2 server?

Copy the full `connect <ip>; password <password>` command from the dashboard and paste it into the in-game console, or click Launch in Steam and it opens the game and joins automatically — password included.

Is the server password protected?

Yes — every CS2 server is password-protected out of the box. You get a join password to share with players, kept separate from the RCON admin password so inviting friends never gives them server control.

Can I run RCON and admin commands?

Yes. Run commands live from the dashboard console, or connect with the RCON password from your own client to change the map, mode, or settings.

How many players can it handle?

A small server (2 GB RAM) comfortably runs a 5v5 match with spectators. Scale up to larger sizes for bigger servers or community play — resize any time.

Can I schedule my CS2 servers to run automatically?

Yes. Set start/stop windows — for example a 2-hour scrim block each week, or league nights every Tuesday and Thursday — and each server spins up and shuts down on its own. You only pay for the hours it runs.

Can I invite my team to manage the server?

Yes. Add people to your team and choose what each can do — some just see the live connect address and join, while others get start/stop and full management. RCON, settings, and billing stay locked to whoever you choose.

Where are the servers hosted?

In the EU (Germany), for low-latency competitive play across Europe.
