Absurd Minds

Since this is generally a contentious topic, I thought I'd just provide an easy resource for the rates I use in CS:GO. Feel free to disagree or mock them, I just know there is interest in the topic.

cl_interp_ratio 1
cl_interp 0.001
cl_cmdrate 128
cl_updaterate 128
rate 250000

My rates:
cl_interp_ratio 1
cl_interp 0.001
cl_cmdrate 102.4
cl_updaterate 102.4
rate 30000

Our server rates are much higher. If you can handle it, put update rate and cmdrate to 128. I haven't confined this but my understanding is that you can put rate much higher too, like 80000, but I put mine at zero because that ensures the best for the server . I put my interp on zero because interp is a complex play between many client rates and server rates.

Would the difference be noticeable between .001 and 0 for interp? This isn't a criticism, I'm generally curious and don't understand how it works.

Thanks!

I'm not sure... I have read things about it, and many people suggest 0 just because of the extreme variability in all the different things that make good interp, but I honestly never really understood the arguments either way. I think it more has to do with if you're on a server that isn't even good enough for good interp, there's no reason to not take advantage of the randy reg by raising it.

But yeah, I don't understand how it works either lol
