Oasis gameplay view of a blue building, an open doorway and a red B arrow pointing left across a stone-paved street.
Official game reference · checked September 28, 2026.

Recognize the pictured Oasis approach

Oasis is selectable in the v0.21 Early Access menu, and the game's v0.2 news lists it as a new map. Our captured CT-side Bomb Defuse view shows a stone-paved outdoor area, a blue building face, several recessed doorways and a red B arrow painted on a pale wall. The arrow points left in this view. Those are visual landmarks you can look for, not official competitive callout names.

The arrow indicates B in this pictured location. Check the B label and your position on the in-game minimap if you use it to orient yourself during play. This single view does not show the turns between the arrow and the bombsite, or establish a safe or short route.

Use the pictured landmarks as checkpoints

Choose Bomb Defuse on Oasis and look for the area in the screenshot. When you find it, identify the red B arrow, the blue frontage and the open doorway. Turn away, move a short distance, then turn back and find the same landmarks without relying on the screenshot. This tests whether you recognize the place from more than one direction.

For a separate navigation exercise, choose a site on the live minimap and walk toward it. Record the turns and markers you actually pass. If your path crosses the pictured area, use its landmarks as one checkpoint. The path you discover is your own observation in the current game, not a route verified by this page.

  • Locate the pictured red B arrow, blue wall and open doorway in the live game.
  • Look away and return to see whether you can recognize the same place from a different angle.
  • Check the live minimap before treating the arrow as part of your path to a site.
  • Write down only the turns you walked yourself; reverse them as a separate practice run.

Clear the visible edges one at a time

The captured approach has a door opening near the blue facade, a broad paved space and a sloped path to the left. One glance down the open middle does not reveal what is beyond the side opening or the left turn. As a practice method, stop before each exposed edge, aim at the nearer side, move enough to reveal the next slice, and then check farther along the path. Keep track of which opening you have actually inspected rather than sweeping across the whole scene at once.

Repeat the edge-by-edge check when you pass through this area in either direction. The screenshot supports the existence of these visible edges; it does not show where enemies will stand, which surface stops bullets or a validated grenade lineup.

Keep objective practice separate from the screenshot

The B arrow is a direction cue, not the plant boundary. If you carry the bomb, first confirm a valid site in the live game, then stand still and hold E for the 3.2-second plant described in the official help. The planted bomb has a 40-second timer. A defender must reach it and hold E for 10 seconds, or 5 with a kit.

For a short drill, find the pictured landmarks and practice clearing their visible edges. Then reach a site using only the game display and record the path you took. This separates what the saved image proves from what you learn through your own play.

Frequently asked questions

Does the red B arrow mark the exact plant area?

No. It is a direction cue in the captured Oasis view. Confirm the valid site in the live game before trying to plant.

Does the B arrow show a complete route to the site?

No. The screenshot shows the arrow and nearby landmarks from one viewpoint. Use the live game to verify where the path goes and how long it takes.
