Orion and I talked about this at some length a couple months back. And he came to conclusion that the two of us weren't "Polling" the server at the proper rate. He made a change in his config file that seemed to help, and passed that file on to me. It did seem to cut down on the WTH? PWN??! situations we were running into where our bullet's weren't registering. Unfortunatly, every update seems to reset that setting. I'll see if I can find the old file I used, reinstall it, and see if it fixes the issues I've been having lately. If so, I'll share it.

of course you can, it's small narrow halls!

 

try doing that in the ct spawn in cbble, you won't hit them

It happens way to often on cobble; same with aztec. Just last night I managed to pick 2 people off at b bombspot on cobble from the door way above the ramp, with a deagle, strafing. It doesn't matter if it's a small hallway for a large room, it happens way to often to be natural.

your supposed to, that is assumed with the deagle

Not when you're firing blindly. You're either extremely lucky (and since I can seem to do it with some regularity I'll assume it isn't luck) or it's coded.

I just planted a knife in somebody's gut at point blank THREE TIMES today and none of the hits registered. This brought my blood to boiling point, caused me to cuss, then throw my headphones against the wall.

 

I'm done frustrating myself with this game. They can't make hits register, this game ain't worth playing. Find a different player to abuse, I'm done until they fix it.

 

None of this crap happened till the last update.

 

This is not a case of bad aim, I was at point blank.

 

This was not a case of improper use of a weapon, it was a bloody knife which has no bullet spread.

 

There is something wrong, end of story.

SEND ANGRY LETTERS!

 

 

If you're throwing your headphones over a lack of knife kills, maybe you should put the game up anyway before you hurt yourself.

until they fix it?????? my dear sir, that IS counterstrike. a game with 25% registery. thats why

 

FA > CS

 

now DR is at a point alot of us are/were/always have been.

I agree DR. The last update is just suxors to the max.

I have a problem with the new patch too. I was shooting a guy on office tonight with a shotgun. I hit him 3 time in the back and head area. Saw all three round hit and pellet holes. He turned and I broke out the deagle and killed him with one shot to the head. I was starting to get worried. I have seen this on all the servers after the update. Not to mention the name bug and some of the other problems. I hope they fix it ASAP.

if shots don't register, why am I getting kills?There is the odd time where my things don't register, but I don't go on a murderous rampage. It's a game, it has it's flaws, but they aren't flaws that restrict me from doing what I'm suppose to do in the game (ie kill/recuse/defuse/plant)

I swear to god, I think you'r just arguing Caste to be a Jerk. I'm not saying NONE of the hits are registering. I'm not saying I'm not getting kills. There's times were I myself go on these crazy rampages. But the sheer randomness of where shots get dropped into nonthingness is getting so downright regular it's not worth playing anymore.

 

If just two of the knife hits registered, I would of chalked it up to lag. Heck, even just one knife swipes.... but THREE KNIFE HITS AT POINT BLANK NOT REGISTERING MEAN THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG! There is no way in hell when I'm pinging below 90 that 3 knife shots to the gut shouldn't be registering.

i would change your rates around and expariment with cl_interpolate 0

yeah, plz explain to me how a DE does only 8 dmg with a HS. How do I know it was a HS? Simple, the head was the ONLY part of the body exposed and the blocking material could not be shot through. Again, its only after this latest update that I have noticed such a random distribution of whether or not shots hit or miss, AND how much damage they do. I cannot stress the asininity of some of the situations I have encountered. Its to the point where I cant use the DE (my ABSOLUTE favorite weapon) any more because less than half the shots in the mag will register at any given time. Heck, entire mags dont register at times.

I don't have any trouble nailing people with it.

Yesterday I walked up to an enemy who was standing still and shot him 3 times at point blank range in the head with the desert eagle. None of the shots registered. Next round I did the exact same thing and got headshots on 3 different people. :-/

no, I'm not arguing to be a jerk, I'm merely trying to saw that you people are blowing this way out of proportion. This kind of stuff doesn't happen every single time, they're occasional mishaps. And considering I was just playing, and killed someone with 2 knife swips to the stomache with 90 ping, it's something wrong with your rates

raise server ticrate pls!!!

raise server ticrate pls!!!

qfe... I think

We just raised the ticrate on our private server to 100 and it is a shot registering BEAST now. Everything hits, and counts.. as it should! Just add "-ticrate 100" hell even just "-ticrate 66" (default is 33) to the command line for the server to register better, then reboot the server. That's all it takes since you own your own box! Give it a try and see! Ticrate just determines how much CPU usage there is, and most high end Source server companies are offering it now. Hope it helps!

but again, will we have to change our rates?

well, i think everyone should use cl_cmdrate 101, cl_updaterate 101, cl_rate 20000 and rate 25000 - those seem to be what work best for most people. i didn't change my rates from that, and everything works fine for me.

As far as I can tell, you won't have to change your rates if the ticrate is changed. It just means that you can set your rates higher and have it affect anything. cmdrate and updaterate apparently have no real affect if they're set higher than the server's ticrate. I've been looking stuff up for ticrates for the last hour or so and apparently the only downside to a higher ticrate is a higher server load. Noone's said anything about having to change rates or anything else. Also having a higher ticrate makes a very very very very very large improvement. I'll post some ip's for some 100 ticrate servers in a few minutes if anyone wants to test them out.

 

Apparently guns shoot faster and you move faster in addition to having better hit registry.

If anyone would like to test out our server which is set to ticrate 100 - pm me for ip and password

Yeah, I most definitely very highly suggest we raise our tickrate. It's quite noticeably a great improvement. The ROF on some guns is definitely higher. Most noticeably on the AK and the MP5, especially on the MP5. It's insane at 100 tickrate . I also think you move faster and jump farther. It's all just as great as people say it is. And thank you for letting me test out your server, Scratchy. It was a very educational experience .

Poof

 

It is set at 100 right now...

 

We will keep a close eye on things. If ANYONE see any additional choke or loss please let us know so we can lower it back to 66 and try that.

 

I spoke with Gator and we just raised the tic rate.
