What are you struggling with? you need to be more specific. Im terms of hosting a server (so your friends can join), the best & cheapest way is to portforward and host off of your personal router, I wouldn't recommend this if you had plans to advertise and host for other people (I hosted this way in 2008, pre VPS era and I used to get DDoS'ed all the time), the other option is hosting it by 'lan' meaning that it would only be accessible if they were connected to your internet (at your house basically) on '127.0.0.1' and the last option is a hosted/dedicated virtual private server 'VPS' which is what I use, but this option costs money.
Hope this helped, it might be a bit rough cause I typed this on my iPhone haha.

Exactly this, if you need any help bro just add me on skype 'DefinateX'.
People still use Hamachi? haha.

Hamachi is a joke, just Google your router model and how to port forward it there's tons of tutorials. The hardest part is getting your password unless its nothing or pass, password, or admin for your router.
