NS2: Combat Server Hosting, Explained
New to NS2: Combat?
What is NS2: Combat?
NS2: Combat is a team shooter where space marines fight aliens, mixing FPS action with MOBA-style progression. Rounds last about 15 minutes. You earn experience as you fight and spend it on weapons, ability upgrades and new lifeforms, from a marine's jetpack and Exo Suit to the alien that can Devour its enemies. It grew out of the Natural Selection 2 modding community into a standalone game, and it does not need Natural Selection 2 to play.
Two Sides.
Marines bring guns, armor and sentry guns. Aliens bring stealth, speed and strength.
Upgrade Every Round.
Spend your experience on weapons, abilities and lifeforms as the round goes on.
Why rent a server?
What is NS2: Combat Server Hosting?
Players can join and leave a round at any time, so a server that stays up is the easiest way to keep your group playing. A dedicated server runs without anyone hosting from their PC. With us, it installs itself the moment you order. You name it, set a password and a player limit, pick the map it starts on and the Workshop mods it loads, and choose the CPU, memory and storage it gets.
Always Up.
Your server keeps running when you log off, ready for the next round.
Your Map Cycle.
Pick the start map, the map order and how long each map runs.
