Counter Strike – How Many Seconds Until Bomb Detonates in Counter Strike?

counter-strike

In Counter-Strike, is there any count (in seconds/minutes) until the bomb explode when it's first set-up? And can the timing be modified?

Best Answer

In most iterations of Counter-Strike by default it is set to 45 seconds. In most competitive and league matches, this value is changed to 35 seconds. Note: that since the Winter update 2015, the bomb timer has been modified to 40 seconds for both Competitive and most league matches.

This can be changed in the console by the server admin with the command:

mp_c4time "[time in seconds]"

in CS:Source and CS:GO the command is:

mp_c4timer "[time in seconds]"

Make sure to wrap time in quotes.
