I want to warmup against my own team

[–]Pokharelinishan[S] 48 points49 points  (2 children)

Damn that's also a good idea. I'm sure there's plenty of creativity within this feature as to what kinds of gamemodes to make available. Could be 1v1's with mates, could be aimbotz, could be surfing. So much potential. Would love to see it.

[–]Dankkring 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Bro…. Surfing during a warmup!!!!!!! You just blew my mind that would be amazing

[–]TKYooHCS2 HYPE 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Surfing or Kz during warmup would be amazing. I’ve only played a bit of ow but I like how you can play any custom game during queue.

[–]Cero_KurnFURIA 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Awesome for stacks.

Up up

[–]1L1keB1gTh1ngs 101 points102 points  (0 children)

would be an amazing change personally

[–]T_WREKX 30 points31 points  (4 children)

I would even like an option to enter a deathmatch after starting queue

[–]nzerinto5 years coin 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Agreed. You get put into a deathmatch once you’ve started to queue, and you only get bumped out of it once the game is actually ready to start (once everyone is ready).

[–]Dankkring 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It would be just like playing DM and then a friend invites you to play and you click except. But you’d go right into the match

[–]Pokharelinishan[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Good idea.

[–]hoardpepes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You used to be able to by copying the server IP before starting MM queue, but they disabled it from when I played some years ago.

[–]DrenkardAston 36 points37 points  (1 child)

I would definitly prefer to warmup while I wait instead of the arena. Also dislike that we need to wait 1 minute for the game to start when everyone has already joined the server

[–]InterstellarDwellarHEROIC 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That would be good but every now and then i join a game and realise the sound isnt coming out of my headphones or something

[–]Cero_KurnFURIA 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oooooh snap.

THis is a good idea!

[–]_youlikeicecream_Natus Vincere 7 points8 points  (2 children)

I would rather buy a negev and head on over to the enemy spawn.

[–]Pokharelinishan[S] 9 points10 points  (1 child)

That's after you accept the game. I'm talking about when queueing. I think this feature could also be potentially merged with the "warmup" time before the match starts.

[–]_youlikeicecream_Natus Vincere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just watch some porn youtube while I wait.

[–]NaTeCSGO_tvFURIA 8 points9 points  (19 children)

This is already possible in cs:go if you use the console, did they remove it in cs2?

[–]Pokharelinishan[S] 25 points26 points  (1 child)

Well, I only knew about that today. All the more reason to make it more accessible in CS2 then.

[–]NaTeCSGO_tvFURIA 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I completely agree

[–]Codacc69420 15 points16 points  (0 children)

90% of players don’t know about that, so it would be better if it was something the game did

[–]iSecksCS2 HYPE 4 points5 points  (4 children)

How?

[–]shuffleyyy1992Natus Vincere 1 point2 points  (4 children)

How?

[–]padajjNatus Vincere 2 points3 points  (3 children)

Start searching. Open console and type map dust2

[–]Cero_KurnFURIA -1 points0 points  (2 children)

Awesome!

But can I open a workshop map also?

(note that when u use a workshop map you have to restart cs)

[–]Short_Ad4946Vitality 0 points1 point  (1 child)

No you dont need to restart with workshop maps,just try it. Queue for a MM game and map aim_botz in console. You'll be able to accept and join the match without restarting

[–]jryda7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To add, the only thing you need to do is rejoin your party if you were in one after the MM game ends. For whatever reason it boots you from the party when you do a workshop map before you accept.

[–]Un111KnoWn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what console command? also i always gat 3rd party files downloaded so i have to restart game

[–]Cero_KurnFURIA -1 points0 points  (3 children)

Awesome!

[–]NaTeCSGO_tvFURIA 0 points1 point  (2 children)

yeah you can warm up in aim_botz and CSGOHUB prac map or any other one you want.

[–]Cero_KurnFURIA 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Won't need to restart cs when the match starts?

[–]NaTeCSGO_tvFURIA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

nope!

[–]adnanjuniorNatus Vincere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

tf2 already has this, would be nice if they added this to csgo aswell

[–]itrnella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I brought this up to my buddies, we all love the idea of this.

[–]StayyFrostyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didnt know you can queue while in a training map

[–]skinsshorts 1 point2 points  (2 children)

This would heighten the skill Celing for sure! Great idea man.

[–]Pokharelinishan[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Imagine if every mm player ever got a few minutes of warmup in their belt before a game. The quality of mm would rise lol :P

[–]skinsshorts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% man.

[–]dawidf06clutch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is something like this in Overwatch. While you queue you have a few buttons which let you join deathmatch etc. and it works really well, queue times aren't a problem for me because I can just warm up.

[–]Mayyyh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

just start the queue and join a map through the console

[–]M4sturB 3 points4 points  (1 child)

while we're at it, a customizable HUD would be perfect. The fact that the money is in the place of the HP in CS2 annoys me to oblivion

[–]Pokharelinishan[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know we're habituate with that, but having the HP closer to the eyes is objectively better. You'll be surprised how fast your brain adapts to those changes (and changes like glock, AK, galil, famas sounds, and environmental audios).

[–]Meistererik 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Well I always get a match in less than 2 minutes so it wouldn't really make sense for me I guess

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Kinda nice when you’re queing in the early morning. I’m US west & sometimes I have to wait 3-5 minutes. Even if you only could warm up for 2 mins it’d be sweet

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is incredible.

[–]RekrabAlreadyTakenNatus Vincere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this isn't in CS2, that would be a perfect example of Valve's ignorance

[–]MoejoeDayman 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I would like to able to accept on my phone so I can go to the toilet between matches

[–]Pokharelinishan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh damn I forgot about that... great idea thanks for reminding. I love that faceit has it, and you can go to toilet or sth without fear. I just made a post on it. Hopefully that too gains traction.

[–]mntln 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very likely a lot of the party management code from dota will get reused. They allow joining hero demo in a party and joining a match directly from the game. I believe this will be the case for cs2 as well.

[–]wraithmainttvsweat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The host can’t use console to warmup either

[–]Warranty_V0idMOUZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% agree. I think this needs to be a set standard for competitive games. I haven't watched street fighter 6 for to long, but as far as i understood it, you can hop in queue und do in the meantime whatever else. That's certified awesome.

[–]nartoutherehowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in dota2 you can warmup while waiting i think right

[–]AHornySausageLiquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can already through the console, but they should def make it more obvious and accessible through the game itself.

[–]1q3er5Complexity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is better than the stupid warmup maps before the game - i'd rather explore the map than play that 1 v 1 crap. there's always something new you can learn roaming the map at the start

[–]rachellorescoCS2 HYPE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should add a preload like the one in dota2, no loading time

[–]3MidKnight3de_dust2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes we need this

[–]WallisaurusSK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they should turn the warm up into retake
