66 tick > 100 tick

[StarsMine]

So should we now tell everyone to set their rates to 67?

the server will only allow 66, so it won't matter if our rates are still set for 100. server will only allow 66. it will auto adjust their rates.

Have been wondering when the server's would be changed over.

The server will not auto adjust your rate. Does Valve still default configs to 33 tick?
As far as rate's go...read up on them and the netcode to configure your own personal rates as everyone's will differ. All this means is the server sends/recieves 66 tick updates per second.

Setting your rate's too high/low will cause you choke, "lag", and other "weirdness". IE: missfireing sound, a slow response in shoot to land and more omfg hax box wall deaths. Lol.

There is much more that effects gameplay than just the tickrate.

I love 100 tic myself, I can tell a real difference when playing. I guess just getting used to it for so long is part of it. It makes guns shoot a lil faster, seems to increase accuracy, and makes bunny hopping easier for non scripters.

Actually that is impossible b/c the fire speeds since that update make it so the weapons behave the same regardless of tick. They are not programed the way there were before where they did fire differently under 100 tick. Valve made it so they always fire the same and made it so that the default settings of fire are those of 100 tick pre OB. As a result the only real reason to run 100 tick was under the idea that it provided better hit registration however the game engine is now hard coded to 66 tick and this combined with the changes in net code cause the game to lag and for you to have poor registration on anything other than 66 tick.

The only thing I can say that I have not been able to disprove is that 100tick is better for bunny hopping. If we ran or in the future run a bunny hop server it would be 100tick for this reason as the b hop would be more important than smooth game play or hit registration.

[VFV]

so when is this change going to happen boss?

[ZERO]

All servers are now 66 tick and force a rate to 66-67 for cmd and update rate.

Well I'd say your prob right because other then ibis I don't really play any other server competitively. I do play minigames on SG servers and I know for a fact 66 tic makes it real difficult to bunny hop what so ever. The only people that can do anything with it are using scripts. B hopping isn't a requirement to be good or anything, I just thought it added another dimension to the game play.

First off, damn your avatar.
Secondly yes it does add a bit to the game play, but it also alienates those who cant, like me D:
