If you want to alter the speed of Counter-Strike, you need to use the speed commands. This is why we have created this guide, so we can teach you all about the speed commands, allowing you to start using them without problems in this game.

We will go over what speed commands are, how they work, how to input them via console and also check real examples on how they are implemented in the game.

What Are Speed Commands?

Keep in mind that the “-speed” command will only be effective if you’ve previously entered “+speed” because its sole function is to revert your character’s speed to normal. Therefore, it’s not intended to increase your character’s speed in any way.

They are used as cvar client commands because they don’t need or accept arguments in order to execute in the game. By simply inputting them directly via console, they will take effect immediately, altering the normal speed of your character.

Hence, commands like “+speed 1,” “+speed 0,” or “-speed 1” won’t yield any results. Just input them directly into the console, and they’ll take effect instantly. You can’t customize your character’s speed by adjusting these commands since “+speed” is predefined and cannot be modified.

They are also known as the CSGO speed codes, because they only work in this version. They are also an easy way to start experimenting with the speed settings of the game, especially if you’re new to the world of CS:GO commands.

You can execute this command without enabling sv_cheats beforehand, so you can input it directly via console right off the bat.

Now that you have been given a proper introduction to the Speed commands in CS:GO, below you will find a tutorial on how to use them.

How to Use Speed Commands via Console

Here is how you can use the speed commands or CSGO speed codes via console easily, in just 5 steps:

 

  • Press the “~” key to launch the console
  • Decide what speed command you will use
  • Input +speed or -speed via console
  • Press Enter
  • The speed of your character will change accordingly 

 

This is all you need to do to execute the speed commands. For example, if you want to decrease the speed of your character, simply launch the console and input +speed, and your character will become much slower instantly.

If you’d like to check more examples on how this command is used, below you will find the information you need.
