While there are many options, most prefer to use a non-distracting crosshair style that lets them snap heads easily. Despite some drawbacks, a dot reticle fits the description perfectly. If you\u2019re looking to switch to the dot crosshair in CS2, this guide will help you find the best kind. The in-game settings in CS2 allow players to tailor a crosshair according to their preference. While the dynamic style exists, players are most likely to prefer static crosshairs, making tracing targets easier.\u00a0 Club a static layout with a dot, and you\u2019ll have a head-clicking crosshair, perfect for those who prefer one-tapping their opponents with an AK-47. Here\u2019s how you can get one for yourself.\u00a0 How to get a dot crosshair in CS2 To get the dot crosshair in CS2, you need to find the Crosshair options on the Settings page. There, you can either customize it yourself or paste a popular code. To customize your crosshair, you should: Go to the Settings page Navigate to Game, then Crosshair Use the available settings to customize the crosshair\u2019s length, thickness, outline, and other characteristics, and weave the perfect one for you Choose the Classic Static layout and enable Center Dot to get the dot crosshair. Then, depending on the size you want, minimize the\u00a0Length\u00a0and\u00a0Gap\u00a0attributes and maximize\u00a0Thickness.\u00a0 If you want to enter a code, follow these steps: Click Share or Import on the crossover preview bar Paste the code into the pop-up window and click Import Basic dot crosshair in CS2 I suggest starting out with these values and tweaking them depending on your preference: This will give you a green dot crosshair with visible outlines, which is great for CS2\u2019s background. Here\u2019s the import code for the same: CSGO-JaaMN-QODox-vueWF-sdtLn-PU9vO.\u00a0 Dot crosshair without outlines You can use a dot crosshair without the outlines. It might be less distracting, but it's difficult to track.\u00a0 Here\u2019s the import code for the above style: CSGO-rpnKr-SAeJq-EDzHA-e9Ocf-tUfOQ. Box dot crosshair This is a decent choice, too, giving players a little more flexibility than a circular crosshair.\u00a0 Here\u2019s the import code for the square-dot crosshair: CSGO-bGEA7-wox5Y-BEFec-HEyF7-V3OtQ. BlameF\u2019s dot-like crosshair Alternatively, if you aren\u2019t really ready to move on from the iconic plus crosshair just yet, you can try Benjamin \u201cblameF\u201d Bremer\u2019s style. It\u2019s a quaint, dot-like crosshair that isn\u2019t too distracting or difficult to track. Here\u2019s the crosshair code for his style: CSGO-LdXHk-hatWX-JjEa8-tuLDN-5tbJD. You can create more variations for the dot crosshair in CS2 with colors and sizes. While copying crosshairs may seem the easiest way, I recommend starting with a layout and weaving your own. That way, you can aim better and don\u2019t need to spend more time mastering another.\u00a0 What are the benefits and issues of a dot crosshair in CS2? The benefits and issues of a dot crosshair in CS2 are most often listed as: Benefits Improved focus and accuracy Issues Difficulty switching to other enemies and spraying with weapons The dot crosshair is generally used by players who don\u2019t want any kind of distraction affecting their visibility on screen. It also makes aiming at the enemy's head a bit easier, so it can be the perfect solution for those who want to deal a series of headshots to the other team. That said, those who are used to being dependent on their crosshairs for aim placement may find it difficult to keep track of a dot crosshair, especially those without outlines. For them, simple static plus crosshair makes the best choice.\u00a0 What color should you choose for a dot crosshair in CS2?\u00a0 Green is the most preferred color because it fits perfectly in\u00a0CS2\u2019s\u00a0environment. It's commonly used by popular CS2 players like\u00a0ZywOo, YEKINDAR, and mONESY. But it might not be suitable on certain maps. You can choose yellow or white, but ultimately, it boils down to personal preference. Some players also like the white with black outlines combination.\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/How-to-get-the-dot-crosshair-in-CS2.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/978183"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2196"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=978183"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/978183\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1294385,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/978183\/revisions\/1294385"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1294383"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=978183"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=978183"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=978183"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=978183"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=978183"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=978183"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=978183"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
