How to pause a match in CS2
Type mp_pause_match in the server console and the match pauses at the next freeze time. mp_unpause_match resumes it.
mp_pause_match
Pauses the match at the start of the next freeze time.
mp_pause_match Examples
mp_pause_match Pause at the next freeze time.
What it does
The current round plays out, then the game freezes during the next freeze time until someone runs mp_unpause_match. This is the admin pause used in scrims and leagues for technical problems. Players stay frozen but can still chat.
The game's own description: Pause the match in the next freeze time
Good to know
- It does not pause mid-round. The round in progress finishes first.
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.
