Counter-Strike Console Commands There are a number of console commands in Counter-Strike that can be very handy. Note that these are not cheats, and nothing listed here will give you an advantage of any kind over other players. These commands are usually used to tweak your display settings and what you can see on the screen. To use the console commands, just bring down the console by hitting the "~" key (the tilde) and type the command, followed by hitting enter.
