Starting your own private CS:GO server is a great way to play with friends! First, you'll need to download and install SteamCMD, Valve's command-line version of Steam. Then, use it to log in to your Steam account. After that, you'll need to install the CS:GO dedicated server files via SteamCMD. Create a batch file to launch your server with desired settings like map and max players (don't forget to set a password for privacy!). Finally, give your friends your server's IP address so they can join. Detailed guides are all over the net, so a quick search will help you through specific steps!

Pro tip: use your private server to practice nades with friends. It's the perfect setup to refine those smokes and flashes without the pressure of a public match.

Honestly, just rent a server from a hosting service. Way easier than setting it up yourself and prices are pretty reasonable. Plus, you can avoid the headaches of maintaining the server or dealing with unexpected crashes. Just search for CS:GO server hosting, and you'll find plenty of options.
