The higher the tick rate, the faster the updates and thus the more precise play for those in-game. How often this is done, is called the tick rate.Ī server with a 64 tick rate, like CS:GO's, recalculates everything 64 times per second. Said game state needs to be updated regularly. In multiplayer games, it's this server's job to keep track of where everything in the current session is. Rather, they refer to the refresh rate of a game’s server. That's what the ban system is for, after all. When people talk about 'tick rate', they are not discussing the parasite-to-server ratio. Now what do small, blood-sucking arachnids have to do with Counter-Strike and why do they still cost so much, I hear you ask. I’ve heard at one point it’d cost them ~2m, which relatively speaking, seems like not that much- Jordan Gilbert December 30, 2019
