For TF2, we are standardizing on what we think provides the best experience because the server market has gotten flooded with bad information and incorrect messaging to end users. We are also improving server quality on our side because it is partially the neglect of the server which led to the confusion and bad messaging.
The latest version of the server has very different "feel" characteristics than pre-update at 66.6 tickrate. We will continue to evaluate ways to make the game consistently feel better for everyone rather than provide mixed performance experiences based on server settings and mods that some admins may not even know about. If that means moving some mods to 100 instead of 66 and optimizing bandwidth usage in a future update, that is still an option.

Why are you wasting efforts on trying to mess up the 100 tick mod? Those who run it obviously want it and your trying to sabotage that. Why you all chose to lock everything down to on the worst side of the spectrum i dont know. Locking it to 100 tick and 500FPS would have been much better.

FPS has always been a useless number that does not affect server bandwidth or update rate unless you also run a binary mod that changes the tickrate of the game. (Some server hosts appear to be doing this now that FPS is locked. We will be disabling that type of mod soon, FYI.) In short, don't worry about it and don't change anything unless you really feel the need to tinker.

The fps is based on the rates which we set on the server. Can someone tell me what max fps getting along with rates they have set on the server.
