How to Vote in CSGO – Tips and Tricks for Every Player!

As a competitive first-person shooter, Counter Strike: Global Offensive (CSGO) has a voting system in place to ensure that the game is fair and balanced. Players can vote to change the map, kick players, or start a match early. In this blog post, we will go over how to vote in CSGO, when you can vote, and some tips and tricks.

The Different Ways You Can Vote in CSGO.

The Three Different types of Votes.

There are three different types of votes that you can cast in CSGO: map votes, match votes, and server votes.

Map votes are used to choose the next map that will be played. The vote is initiated by the server console, and all players will be notified of the vote via a message in the chat window. All players can then vote for the map they would like to play next using the “vote” command. The map with the most votes will be chosen as the next map.

Match votes are used to end the current match early. The vote is initiated by one player calling a vote via the “callvote” command. This will bring up a menu where the player can choose which type of match vote they would like to call. All players will be notified of the vote via a message in the chat window, and they can then cast their vote using the “vote” command. If more than half of the players voted yes, then the match will end early.

Server votes are used to change various settings on the server, such as changing the game mode or voting to kick a player from the server. The vote is initiated by one player calling a vote via the “callvote” command. This will bring up a menu where the player can choose which type of server vote they would like to call. All players will be notified of the vote via a message in their chat window, and they can then cast their vote using

the “vote” command. If more than half of the players voted yes, then the server will change to the new setting or kick the player from the server.

When Can You Vote?

During the Game.

In Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, there are three different types of votes that can be called: map vote, kick vote, and surrender vote. Map votes can only be called by the team’s captain, kick votes can be called by any player on the team, and surrender votes can only be called when the game is in overtime.

Map votes are used to change the map that is being played. To call a map vote, the captain types “callvote map_name” into the console. The other players on the team will then see a message asking them to vote for the new map. If a majority of the team votes for the new map, then the game will be changed to that map. If not, then the game will continue on the current map.

Kick votes are used to remove a player from the game. To call a kick vote, any player on the team types “callvote kick playername” into the console. The other players on the team will then see a message asking them to vote for whether or not to kick that player. If a majority of the team votes to kick that player, then they will be removed from the game and spectate until it ends. If not, then nothing happens and that player remains in the game.

Surrender votes can only be called when a match is in overtime. To call a surrender vote, any player on the team types “callvote surrender” into console. The other players on the team will then see a message asking them to vote for whether or not to surrender. If a majority of the team votes to surrender, then the match will end and each team will receive half of the total number of rounds they would have won if the match had continued until one team reached 16 rounds. If not, then nothing happens and the match continues.

Post-Game.

After a game has ended, players have the option to vote for the next map that will be played. To do this, they type “callvote map_name” into the console. The map voting screen will then come up and all players can vote for which map they want to play next. The map with the most votes will be loaded and the game will start on that map.

How to Cast Your Vote.

In-Game.

There are two ways to vote during the game: through the game menu or through the console.

To vote through the game menu, open the menu and go to the “Vote” tab. From there, you can select what type of vote you want to cast, as well as who or what you’re voting for. For example, if you want to call a timeout, you would select the “Call a Timeout” option and then select your team from the list.

To vote through the console, open the console and type “vote_menu” (without quotes). This will open up the vote menu where you can select what type of vote you want to cast. For example, if you want to call a timeout, you would type “call_timeout” (without quotes) and then select your team from the list.

Post-Game.

After the game ends, there is a voting screen that appears where players can vote for the next map. The maps are voted on in a best-of-three format, meaning that whichever map gets voted for twice will be played next. To vote for a map, simply click on it. You can also type “vote_map [map name]” (without quotes) in the console to vote for a specific map.

Tips and Tricks.

Pay Attention to the Map.

When you’re in a game, it’s important to pay attention to the map so you know when and where votes are happening. You can usually tell when a vote is about to happen because the map will display an icon next to the name of the player who called for the vote.

Use Your Voice Chat.

Voice chat is a great way to communicate with your teammates and let them know what you’re thinking. If you’re not sure whether or not to vote for something, ask your teammates what they think. Chances are, they’ll have some helpful input that can sway your decision.

Be Respectful.

Voting is a privilege, not a right, so be respectful when casting your vote. If you’re constantly voting against your teammates or calling for votes that aren’t warranted, people will start to get annoyed with you. Remember, it’s important to use your vote wisely so that everyone can enjoy playing the game.

In conclusion, it is important to know how to vote in CSGO both during and after the game. There are three different types of votes that can be cast, and each has its own time limit. Pay attention to the map and use your voice chat to communicate with your teammates when casting your vote. Be respectful of other players’ opinions and try to come to a consensus.
