Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CSGO) matches are played in rounds with a default time limit of 1 minute and 55 seconds per round. However, when practicing nades, spray control, or map strategies in offline practice modes, having limited round time can be inconvenient. Fortunately, CSGO allows players to modify the round time limit via console commands.

Enabling the Developer Console
Before you can use console commands, you need to enable the developer console:
- Open the Settings menu and go to Game Settings
- Set “Enable Developer Console” to “Yes”
- In Keyboard/Mouse settings, bind a key to “Toggle Console”
Increasing Round Time Limit
To increase the round time limit, use the mp_roundtime command followed by the desired time in minutes:
mp_roundtime 60
This will set the round time limit to 60 minutes, which is the maximum allowed.
You can also set individual round time limits for different game modes:
- Defuse maps:
mp_roundtime_defuse 60 - Hostage maps:
mp_roundtime_hostage 60
Restarting the Game
After changing the round time limit, you need to restart the game for settings to take effect:
mp_restartgame 1
This restarts the match so you can enjoy extended rounds.
Other Useful Commands
Here are some other commands to make practice sessions more convenient:
mp_buytime 60000– Set buy time to 60,000 secondsmp_buy_anywhere 1– Allow buying weapons anywheremp_warmuptime 60– Set warmup time to 60 minutessv_infinite_ammo 1– Infinite ammo
Buy Scripts
Instead of buying weapons manually every round, you can create buy scripts to purchase your desired loadout automatically.
Add the following to your autoexec.cfg file:
bind "kp_ins" "buy ak47; buy m4a1; buy awp"
This will buy an AK-47, M4A1, and AWP when you press the Insert key on your numpad. Customize the weapons to your preference.
Infinite Grenades
To never run out of grenades, enable infinite ammo (sv_infinite_ammo 1) and add these binds:
bind "f1" "give weapon_flashbang"
bind "f2" "give weapon_smokegrenade"
bind "f3" "give weapon_hegrenade"
bind "f4" "give weapon_incgrenade; give weapon_molotov"
Press F1-F4 anytime during a round to receive that grenade.
Conclusion
Adjusting round time limit settings via console commands gives you unlimited time to practice and experiment in CSGO. Combine it with buy scripts, infinite ammo and grenades to maximize your training efficiency. Master CSGO weapons, grenades and spray control without worrying about the clock!
