TPG CSGO Cloud Server needs play testing

**Kanati** · 09-30-13, 05:14 PM

oh I'm in no way dismissing it. I just have no way to know what "massive tickrate drop" equates to game lag, rubber banding, etc. And CS players have a history of being... uncompromising... So I'm not sure what is a game breaker and what is a mild annoyance. So, just trying to figure out what's acceptable and what's not.

I think we can all agree that the old server is unacceptable and we'll probably retire it... like... any moment now.

When the server tick drops, shots don't register, nades hang in mid air and then appear several yards forward, movement is the same. Its most obvious when you are a T rushing a site and all the above stuff happens at once.

Quite a few players commented on the lag last time this was happening. I'd be fine with dropping the tickrate to 102.4 (which was the beta standard) as long as the server holds its tick rate. Consistency is needed. Just don't run the server below that, because then the game becomes less responsive.

Well give the 102.4 a go before I mess with the kernel

Servers now at 102.4 tick. Decreased the max rate as well to match

Priming. Lets see how it runs.

Still lagging. Vafa can verify.

Although the server held its tickrate much better, there was periodic freezing.

Yup, played for about 20 minutes yesterday and had to get off because of very sluggish gameplay

Huh, do what? How have we gone from "tick drops during rushes" to sluggish lag? Getting conflicting reports here... Unless it was the network changes I made last week.
