Hosting a Half-Life Deathmatch server

Half-Life is Valve's 1998 shooter, and it ships with a multiplayer deathmatch mode that still has a following. Players pick up classic weapons and fight across fast arena maps.

Servers run on Valve's Half-Life Dedicated Server (HLDS). Valve no longer actively updates HLDS, but it is light on hardware, so even small plans can host a full server.

What to compare

  • Price per slot. The game needs little power, so compare what you pay for the slots you will use.
  • Custom maps. Check you get FTP or a file manager to add community maps.
  • Admin add-ons. If you want admin plugins, confirm the host allows custom server files.
  • Location. Deathmatch is fast, so a nearby datacentre makes a real difference.
