Hello, After reviewing your CS2 community server requirements, I understand you are looking for more than a basic setup — you need a stable, optimized public server with custom gameplay features, player progression, and long-term maintainability. I have experience with game server configuration, plugin integration, optimization, and creating scalable systems, and I’m ready to help build this environment. The main challenge will be selecting the right CS2 framework and plugins while keeping performance stable, ensuring compatibility with future updates, and creating a smooth player experience with features like XP, ranks, leaderboards, VIP systems, cosmetics, and admin tools. I would recommend using modern CS2 solutions such as CounterStrikeSharp with properly configured plugins, database integration for player statistics, and optimized server settings for handling active public gameplay. I can also provide clean documentation and an easy administration structure for future updates. A few questions: • Do you already have a preferred hosting provider or server location? • Should player data (XP, ranks, rewards) be stored in a local database or connected to a future website system? I would be glad to discuss your server vision and help build a long-term CS2 community platform. Best regards, Carlos.

CounterStrikeSharp on .NET is the right framework here, especially since Metamod:Source and SourceMod don't have full CS2 parity yet. It's the most actively maintained option and handles plugin hot-reloading well, which matters when you're tweaking things on a live 20v20. I'll set up the full dedicated server with CounterStrikeSharp, configure the core plugins (weapon skins, knife, gloves, map voting, rank/XP system, team balancer), and deliver organized configs with documentation so you can maintain it without me for day-to-day ops. One thing worth noting: the !ws and !knife commands rely on community skin plugins that Valve occasionally breaks with updates, so I'll structure the plugin load order to isolate cosmetics from core gameplay. That way a Valve update won't take your whole server down. Best regards, Shayan

You’re aiming for a public CS2 community server that supports flexible matches (20v20, 15v10, 8v6, and more) without queueing, fun, fast entry, and stable performance. I can build the full server from scratch: clean install, hardened configuration, and an optimized plugin stack for automatic map voting, player stats, XP/leveling, ranks, top-player leaderboards, optional daily rewards, VIP/admin systems, and practical anti-cheat recommendations. For gameplay-safe cosmetics, I’ll implement skin/agent/weapon and loadout commands (e.g., !ws, !knife, !gloves, !agents where supported) in a way that won’t destabilize balance. I’ll also include documentation for basic admin use and maintainable, update-tolerant configs so future CS2 updates don’t break your setup. Discord integration and a polished MOTD/menu experience can be included based on available hooks in the chosen framework.

The bid amount and timeline shown are rough placeholders. We'll firm up real numbers once we talk through what you actually need. You're building a proper CS2 community server, the kind where any number of players can drop in and play without friction. No competitive matchmaking, no strict queue, just a fun server people want to come back to. The features you listed, XP, ranks, skins, VIP, admin tools, Discord hooks, are exactly what separates a forgettable pub server from one that builds a real regular playerbase. Here's how we'd approach this: - Core server setup: Full CS2 dedicated server on Linux VPS, configured with CounterStrikeSharp and MetaMod as the plugin foundation. That's the modern stack for CS2 and the one with the most active plugin ecosystem right now. - Cosmetics and commands: CS2-WeaponPaints plugin for !ws, !knife, !gloves, and !agents, tied to a MySQL backend so player selections persist across sessions and map changes. - Progression system: XP, rank tiers, and a leaderboard using one of the active CS2-Ranks forks, plus a points/coins table if you want to add missions or daily rewards down the line. - Admin and VIP: Admin flags via CounterStrikeSharp's built-in admin module, VIP perks (reserved slots, bonus XP, chat tags) layered on top cleanly so future additions don't break anything. - Discord integration and map voting: Webhook integration for join/leave events and top player announcements, plus RockTheVote or a similar map voting plugin configured to your map pool. Everything will be documented so you or anyone on your team can manage it without coming back to us for every small change. And we're happy to stay on as long-term support while you grow it. Once we have a quick chat about your VPS specs, map pool, and which optional features you want in the first version, we'll send over a proper proposal with milestones and a firm price. Want to jump on a short call this week to walk through it? Best, 96 Studio

Hi, I can help set up and configure a complete CS2 community server with a focus on stability, player experience, and easy long-term maintenance. The goal is not just launching a server, but creating a reliable public environment where players can join anytime and enjoy progression features without affecting gameplay balance. I would handle the server setup, plugin configuration, performance optimization, permissions, and administration structure. The implementation would include features such as player statistics, XP/rank progression, leaderboards, VIP/admin systems, map voting, cosmetic integrations, and Discord connectivity where supported. For modern CS2 servers, I would evaluate solutions such as CounterStrikeSharp and compatible plugins based on your exact requirements, while keeping configurations organized so future CS2 updates are easier to manage. I would also provide documentation for basic administration and maintenance. Before setup, I would like to confirm your hosting environment and player target size: are you planning to run this on a dedicated server/VPS, and what average concurrent player count are you aiming for?

Hi, I am a software engineer with over 16 years of experience. I have extensive experience with Linux game-server deployment, performance tuning, plugin integration, databases, administration tools, and maintainable production systems. I can build your CS2 public community server from scratch around CounterStrikeSharp and MetaMod, using actively maintained plugins for map voting, statistics, XP/ranks, leaderboards, VIP/admin controls, Discord integration, and optional rewards or points. Cosmetics such as !ws, !knife, !gloves, and agents will be added where current CS2 compatibility and platform rules allow, without changing gameplay. My approach is to establish a stable optimized base first, then add and test each feature under realistic player loads. You will receive clean configuration, backups, update guidance, and concise administration documentation. I can also continue supporting updates, custom missions, website integration, or bespoke plugins as the community grows. Previous CS2 server projects cannot be shared publicly, but relevant work can be demonstrated privately. Do you already have the hosting and preferred server region, and which features are essential for the first launch? Please contact me to discuss details.

Hello, "Custom CS2 Community Server" - public server with flexible player counts I will use CounterStrikeSharp with SourceMod plugins for fast, stable setup – it lets us add XP, ranks, and Discord hooks easily.

Which anti‑cheat solution do you prefer to use? Looking forward to working with you. Artur Giżycki
