HOW TO EXTEND ROUND TIME IN CS2?

To extend the round time in Counter-Strike 2 (CS2), players can utilize console commands to customize their gameplay experience. This guide will walk you through the steps to increase round duration effectively, enhancing your practice sessions or casual matches.

 

Understanding Round Time in CS2

 

In CS2, the default round time is set to 2 minutes. This is the time allocated for the Terrorist team to plant the bomb or for the Counter-Terrorist team to eliminate them. Once the bomb is planted, a 40-second countdown begins, which can effectively extend the total round time beyond two minutes. However, for training or casual play, you might want to extend this time significantly.

 

How to Enable the Developer Console

 

Before you can modify the round time, ensure that the developer console is enabled:

  1. Open CS2 and go to Settings.
  2. Navigate to the Game tab.
  3. Set Enable Developer Console to Yes.

You can open the console during gameplay by pressing the ~ (tilde) key.

 

Commands to Extend Round Time

 

Once the console is open, you can use the following commands to extend the round time:

  1. Enable Cheats: This step is necessary to allow custom commands.
     
    sv_cheats 1 

  2. Set Round Time: Use the command below to set the round time to your desired length (up to a maximum of 60 minutes).
     
    mp_roundtime [desired time in minutes] 
    For example, to set the round time to 30 minutes, you would type:
     
    mp_roundtime 30 

  3. Other Useful Commands:
    • To set the defuse round time:
       
      mp_roundtime_defuse 60

    • To set the hostage rescue round time:

    • To extend the buy time:
       
      mp_buytime 60000

  4. Restart the Game: After entering the commands, restart the game for the changes to take effect:

Benefits of Extended Round Time

 

Extending the round time can be particularly beneficial for:

  • Practicing Strategies: More time allows players to practice specific strategies or utility throws without the pressure of a ticking clock.
  • Casual Gameplay: Longer rounds can create a more relaxed environment, ideal for friendly matches or team-building exercises.
  • Training: Coaches can use extended round times to teach new players about map control and strategy without interruptions.
