Synergy Server Hosting, Explained
New to Synergy?
What is Synergy?
Synergy is a free Half-Life 2 mod on Steam that turns singleplayer Source campaigns into co-op. Your group fights Combine soldiers, headcrabs and zombies, drives vehicles and solves physics puzzles together, in larger groups than the original game was built for. On your server, Synergy's own co-op maps and Steam Workshop maps work from the first start. The Half-Life 2 campaign needs your own copy of the Half-Life 2 files, uploaded to the server.
Co-op, Together.
Firefights, vehicles and physics puzzles, played as a group.
Co-op Maps.
Synergy's own co-op maps and Workshop maps from the first start.
Why rent a server?
What is Synergy Server Hosting?
A game hosted from a player's PC ends when they log off. A dedicated server stays online, so your group can come back to it whenever they meet. With Physgun it installs in minutes, with the server name, start map, passwords, player limit, Workshop add-ons and game branch in the startup settings, difficulty, friendly fire, respawns and anti-rush in the config editor, and backups, schedules, subusers and full file access over SFTP.
Always Online.
Your server stays up when you log off, so your group can join any time.
Your Rules.
Set difficulty, friendly fire, respawns and level changes for your group.

Yes. The server can update Synergy every time it starts, so a restart is all it takes to get a game update.
Yes, to any Gamebox game your box can run. A switch reinstalls the server, so the panel offers to take a backup first, and if the new game needs more CPU, memory or storage, upgrade your box before you switch. A switch that moves your server to another machine changes its IP address.
Yes. You can set up a backup schedule in the panel, and secure backup storage is included in every Physgun server!
Yes. Every Physgun server is protected from DDoS attacks.
