buy is a non-cheat command for players to purchase weapons and equipment with their funds while they are allowed to buy, i.e. if the mp_buytime hasn't expired yet and if they are inside a func_buyzone.
Note:The command buy also exists in 
, 
and 
but simply opens the buy menu. For that purpose, and have the command buymenu instead.
Confirm: Does actually have a buymenu that will pop up, or is the command vestigial there?Syntax
buy <item alias>
If the command is invoked with invalid or no arguments, it prints a list of valid arguments.
There is the alternative syntax buy <?> <int>.
Todo: What is the first parameter for? Appears to work with any first non-empty parameter.
 Example:"buy awp" tries to buy an AWP. |
Example:"buy awp" or "buy 1 18" tries to buy an AWP.Note:Everything has a string alias except for the Riot Shield. Use "buy 1 25" to buy it via command. Deprecated:Can't buy heavyarmor anymore, independent of mp_weapons_allow_heavyassaultsuit,even though heavyarmor is still listed when invoking buy with invalid or no arguments.  Tip:To prevent weapons from being purchased, see mp_buy_allow_guns, mp_items_prohibited etc. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
