How to Adjust Field of View in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

  • The actual in-game FOV is locked at 90 degrees and cannot be changed. This is the standard FOV for most first-person shooter games.
  • You can adjust the viewmodel FOV using the viewmodel_fov console command:
viewmodel_fov [number between 54-68]
  • The default is 60. Higher values move the weapon models further away. Many pros use values around 68.
  • This mainly changes how much of your weapon model is shown on screen. It does not actually change the in-game FOV.

In Private Matches

  • Enable cheats by typing sv_cheats 1 in the console.
  • Change FOV with the fov_cs_debug command:
fov_cs_debug [number]
  • You can use any number, but above 150 tends to break the game.

So in summary, adjust viewmodel FOV with viewmodel_fov in competitive matches for better visibility. Use fov_cs_debug in private matches to experiment with higher FOV values. The actual in-game FOV cannot be changed from the default 90 degrees.
