CS Office Callouts

The Office map in CS2 is a beloved hostage rescue map, known for its tight corridors and fast-paced gameplay. Originally introduced in 2000 with Counter-Strike BETA 7.0, it is set in a snowy office complex, where the story revolves around the Counter-Terrorists (CTs) attempting to rescue hostages from the Terrorists. This map is perfect for players who enjoy close-quarters combat, with its many corners, rooms, and hallways that make every round intense and unpredictable.

The map also features some fun Easter eggs, like a developer’s credit hidden behind a wall in Counter-Strike 1.6, and a whiteboard with a playful message about the map creator. In Global Offensive, a projector at the Terrorist spawn zone displayed a satirical slideshow on the 2008 financial crisis, poking fun at mortgage-backed securities. There are also "motivational posters" with dark humor, such as "HEADSHOT: Those who can, do. Those who can't, complain." These elements add extra flavor to the map's atmosphere.

In addition to its unique gameplay, the map boasts a wide variety of possible Office callouts, making it crucial to understand key locations if you want to excel in this map. Let’s dive into the essential callouts for Office in CS2!

Our list of CS2 Office callouts starts with a small nook near the Terrorist spawn where players hide to catch advancing Counter-Terrorists off-guard. This spot is an ideal location for an early ambush or to hold back for a tactical advantage.

Couch

Couch

Located just a few steps from T-Spawn, this cozy couch offers a convenient cover. It’s also a very sneaky vantage point to surprise enemies pushing from the Mid area. It's a classic defensive position, especially if the CTs rush in early, making it one of the most common CS Office callouts.

Fish Bowl

This spot offers a clear view of the surroundings but leaves you exposed if not played carefully, making it a high-risk, high-reward position for players who react quickly.

Side Hall

Side Hall

Close Right Side

Close Right Side

A blind spot immediately to the right of the Side Hall entrance. Ideal for ambushing or defending against CTs pushing through, making it one of the most important CS:GO Office callouts.

First Chair

First Chair

The first chair you encounter in the hallway is often used as a common hiding spot, where lurking players wait to catch opponents off-guard as they turn the corner.

Chair

Chair

Interestingly, both chairs in this hallway are Office callouts in CS2! Players often take cover behind one of the chairs in the middle of the corridor, making it a common tactic to catch opponents off guard.

Side Plant

Side Plant

A small plant near the end of the hall that serves as a subtle point of reference is a key spot where players might camp or hold angles. It’s especially effective from long-range engagements, as it becomes increasingly difficult to spot a player sitting there.

Paper

Paper

Close Right Paper

Close Right Paper

The right side of the Paper Room entrance is a common spot where enemies often wait behind the paper stacks, ready to catch CTs entering from the Mid or Side Hall with a clear shot. This sneaky position makes it a high-risk area for Counter-Terrorists to push through.

Stack

A series of metal shelves that run along the walls of the Paper Room offer good cover. Players might take cover behind these to peek towards the CT-Spawn or Mid.

Kitchen

Kitchen

Greed

Greed

The corner just outside the Kitchen, where gamers often camp in hopes of getting a quick frag. It’s also an excellent position, especially for players to catch enemies rotating through the Main Hall. Its name is derived from the playful poster on the wall, suitable for an office.

Cooler

Cooler

Why are the Greed and the Cooler the most important callouts of Kitchen? Because they’re the prime hiding spots for Terrorists, waiting to ambush unsuspecting CTs who come to rescue the hostages. CTs rushing in without checking these corners often end up caught off guard. Don’t be that CT.

Projector

Light and Dark

Light and Dark

"Light" and "Dark" refer to two large areas of the space commonly known as the Projector, or Conference Room, named based on their illumination. The projector itself is located on the right, near the hostage. That’s also where the clicking sounds come from.

Back Wall

The "back wall" of the Projector Room isn’t actually a wall—it's two large windows with blinds. These windows offer a clear view but also leave you exposed, making positioning here risky yet strategic for spotting enemies or holding angles.
