Great link. Beyond my level of concern or expertise, but still interesting.

Oh well, just pointing out the default rate = 10000?, cl_cmdrate is 30 and cl_updaterate is 20 (if it's still correct these days). Some servers use rate enforcement (they automatically put it 20k 66 66 or 25k/30k 100 100), but others just kick you the moment you join, so it's good to set them beforehand, otherwise ppl will start accusing you (and rightly so) of 'ratehacking'. It's nothing like having an aimbot but still, it messes mostly with the reg for other ppl (I experience it's a lot harder to hit these low-rate guys + they get these random, insane headshots while running/without aiming)

There is a debate though if rates are an issue or more a non-issue ;) But as most servers have rate enforcement lately, low rates prolly have a negative effect on gameplay.
 
Sorry, but can't say that I do. Maybe after my time? Put it to you this way, I was sitting on a 9600 baud satphone modem when Dynamic Weapon Pricing came out for CSS and I only got to read about it because the time I made it back to a gameworthy connection, everyone had turned it off.

Yes I remember that, and that whole era was before that update. They were probably the best players in the world at the time, being in cal invite in the first few seasons of the league. Good times.

Do you know your steam id by any chance? How many digits are you?

My memory's probably just bad. I remember watching SK and 3D skill vids.

135XXX. So yeah, 1st day live. :)
 
CS:S was fun. Too bad the player count in CS 1.6 is not that high anymore. CS:S just doesn't feel good unless it's CS. Those good old days, watching Team Sportscast Network covering live CPL matches and CAL-i matches. Teams such as 3D, Mousesports, SK, Evil Geniuses, Fnatic, Made in Brazil, mTw, zEx, TEC, 4Kings, etc.

Dreamed going to a CPL event but never had the chance to.
