ping is bout 10 points higher than the old setup, i get 23-26 vs 9-16

registry seems good, but that could be a placeebo

Thats weird that you guys have higher pings. When we did the test everyone's ping seemed to be the same or better. Mine is the same and sometimes better. And the reg is better, like auron said, u aim at the head, its a go.

a tracert latency might be different from in-game latency. I am pretty sure tracerts just send small packets of data to test the speed of your connections from home all the way to the server and back. In-game there is more data transfer, your comp has to register it, server comp has to process it, and it is sent back again. So altho there may have been no real diff in the tracerts, the in-game latency may be affects +/- any number. Altho, currently, I notice no real detriment in my latency now ;]

I changed my rates and stuff too 20000/66/66 and don't notice much change either ;b

I had to crank my down.. my rates are 25000/50/50 just to manage the large amount of choke.

 

[iSeize]

someone playing today was lagging everytime he spawned for about 20 seconds and also managed to get stuck at random times. thats all i know, but maybe someone can diagnose it.

 

[Low Budget]

No choke for me.

 

[auron]

Anyone who's getting choke probably still has their rates up at 100/100. You gotta bring those puppies down or you're going to continue to get choke. 50/50 is about the sweet spot for zero choke.

+1 registry, even though I still suck.

-1 spinny isn't banned

Have to check out my latency, probably the same though.

The registry improvement comes from not running a 100 tick with 32 players.

 

[Hinouchi]

server running at 60 tick now?

 

[Propaganda]

66 gungame is 100

Found a great link on tick rates + setting yours

http://www.counter-strike.com/tickrate.php

Prop posted a link to this sorta thing before too i think..maybe u can add it to the stickied one

 

[Low Budget]

I posted that exact same link in the comment on the news announcement. But so people understand, EXPERTS have concluded that any server over 20 player should be set to 66 tic for optimum performance. And Any server under 20 players should be set at 100 tic.

What Should I Set My Server's Tickrate At?
Servers with player slots over 20 may not run smoothly with the tickrate setting of 100, especially if they are pingboosted (See Section on "What is Pingboosting?" below) also. You'll need to set your tickrate to 66 in order to get smooth game play.

Servers < 20 Slots:

-tickrate 100
(The below values need to be set correctly in your server.cfg file)
sv_maxrate 30000
sv_maxupdaterate 100
fps_max 600


Servers > 20 Slots:

-tickrate 66
(The below values need to be set correctly in your server.cfg file)
sv_maxrate 20000
sv_maxupdaterate 66
fps_max 600

My ping went from 5-10 to 20-25 ... me sad ...

 

[St Lodus]

i'm failing hard with the new server just haven't gotten used to it yet. i guess it handles differently.

I cannot get/stay connected to the CSS server. Posted a thread about it in General Forum.
