To set up a dedicated CS:GO server, you first need a PC that can handle being on 24/7. Download SteamCMD from the Valve website. Then, install the CS:GO dedicated server files via SteamCMD with the command 'app_update 740'. Don’t forget to configure your server settings in a server.cfg file, like map rotation and game modes. Finally, forward your ports in your router settings, usually TCP/UDP port 27015, so players can join.

Honestly? Just rent a server. The setup is time-consuming and requires constant updates. Not worth the hassle unless you really love tinkering.

For those diving into hosting their own CS:GO dedicated server, remember it's not just about setting it up. You've gotta keep it updated, secure, and monitor its performance. It's a commitment, not a one-off task. Think of it as adopting a pet, but this one shoots virtual bullets.
