What are YOU doing this Friday?

Less than 24 hours after its release, the new game mode in CS:GO, Danger Zone, is now on FACEIT!

We’ll kick it off with a Solo queue with up to 16 players and a global launch Ladder to compete in and prove who’s the best survivor!

We want to offer a unique experience to play Danger Zone in a more competitive environment and allow you to progress through the ranks by showcasing skill and survival.

What you can expect in Danger Zone FACEIT:

Servers with 128 tick-rate and our Anti-Cheat client

You will earn ELO that counts towards your Danger Zone skill level which will lead to more balanced and challenging matches

Different starting settings compared to the in-game client; we will be experimenting with these based on your feedback in order to make the game more competitive and fun

Ladders and prizes

Solo queue… for now

Current setting changes for Danger Zone on FACEIT:

Added the p250 pistol as the default starting weapon

Increased starting ammo from weapons

Increased some item spawn chances

Starting and max health doubled to 240 HP

Medi-Shot heals for 100 HP

Running speed increased while under the effect of Medi-Shot to allow for quick escapes

Faster landing velocity out of the helicopter

Reduced fall damage

To ensure we don’t disrupt your CS:GO experience on FACEIT too much, we’ve introduced Danger Zone as a new game on the platform. Your profile stats and progression will be completely separate from your CS:GO stats and you will be able to build a completely new profile with Danger Zone.

Head over to the Game Settings page and add the game:

Stay tuned for updates and tweaks as we figure out the game mode and its game play.

In the spirit of Kenny Loggins… RIDE IN TO THE DANGER ZONE!
