How to join your first match in CSO2
Open the game from the launcher, choose a server and channel, then join a waiting room and ready up.
Choose a server and channel
Open the game after signing in to the launcher. Check the latency in the server and channel list. Select a channel to see its rooms.
Join a waiting room
Check the mode, map and player count in the room list. For your first match, choose a room with a free slot where play has yet to start. Pick a side if the room allows it, then select Ready.
Know the Classic objective
On a bomb map, the Terrorists try to plant the bomb. The Counter-Terrorists try to stop the plant or defuse it. If the map stalls while loading, check the connection guide for the symptoms before joining the same room again.
