It´s very true that many do not see the difference from different ticrates. Mainly because thare are no big difference (Especialy from 66 to 100). Now several of you will protest. But the most important is the following
1. The fps must in must be stable. 2. The box must have an stabile networking to avoid changes in packages sent and recived. This part i have noticed on my own when playing online. Playing on a server for 5-10 min... hitting nothing. Take an look at the in and out on the netgraph and voila. They drop from 60 to 40, up to 50 and so on. Swithces to an more stable server and suddenly i hit everything, almost. But the funny part imo is that is it unstable for everyone or youst me because of my isp peering to that server isp or is it the same for everyone on that server. If it is the latest part. Why does some hit on those servers at all. //Daniel Ulrich Block skrev: > Same here.
