How to change the bomb timer in CS2

Type mp_c4timer 30 in the server console so the bomb explodes 30 seconds after it is planted. The default is 40.

mp_c4timer

Sets how many seconds the bomb takes to explode after it is planted.

mp_c4timer <seconds>

Examples

mp_c4timer 40

The standard 40 second bomb.

mp_c4timer 30

A shorter fuse for faster retakes.

Arguments

secondsRequired
Fuse length of the planted bomb.

What it does

Counts from the moment the C4 is armed. A shorter timer favors the attacking side, a longer one gives CTs more time to retake. The round time stops mattering once the bomb is down.

Run it on your server

On a SLASHPLAY server, type it in the Console tab of the server page; the reply shows right under it. A value set there lasts until the server restarts. To keep it, add the line to game/csgo/cfg/server.cfg. New to this? Start a CS2 server first.
