Why Choose Ray Hosting for your Natural Selection 2 Server?
AMD Ryzen 9 hardware, worldwide low-latency network, and robust DDoS protection – we handle the backend, you focus on gameplay.
You can configure your NS2 server using the WebAdmin interface or by editing ServerConfig.json via our unrestricted SFTP access. Our intuitive platform makes it easy to manage admins, map cycles, and server rules.
Yes, our Natural Selection 2 servers feature 1-click deployments via APIs for Steam Workshop. You can instantly install custom maps, UI overhauls, and gameplay mods directly from our control panel.
Natural Selection 2 heavily relies on single-core CPU performance. Our platform utilizes AMD Ryzen™ 9 7900 processors pushing 5.4GHz+ and ECC DDR5 memory, guaranteeing smooth gameplay even during the most intense 24-player late-game battles.
To become an admin, add your Steam ID to the admin list using our advanced web file explorer. You can also utilize our Granular Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to securely manage sub-users and teammates directly from the panel.
While you can install it using SteamCMD yourself, Ray Hosting's instant provisioning deploys your NS2 server on bare-metal nodes within 10-30 seconds, saving you time and technical headaches.
Admins are configured by editing the `ServerAdmin.json` file. With Ray Hosting's full file access and zero-latency live console, you can quickly add admins and monitor live server telemetry.
NS2 servers on shared VPS environments often suffer from 'noisy neighbors.' Ray Hosting uses pure raw metal nodes with no shared CPU threads, ensuring zero tick-skipping during catastrophic in-game loads.
Mods are managed via Steam Workshop. Ray Hosting simplifies this with our modding ecosystem interface, instantly downloading and applying mods without the need for manual configuration.
