How am I supposed to know if they don't even make an Announcement?

What is a 60 tick exactly, a delayed response?
Ive noticed that I need to see into the future in order to hit anybody now myself.

It's basically the refresh rate of the server. Everyone complained about how the game servers only refreshed at 20 times a second (20 tick rate)

Tickrate is the number of times the server updates per second.

30 tick updates 30 times per second
60 tick updates 60 times per second.

This means that in one second, a players position will be calculated 60 times, which provides a much smoother and more reliable experience.

and counterstrike players have been complaining that csgos tickrate is only 64 instead of 124. really makes you think

60tick is perfectly fine IMHO

The difference between 30 and 60 is huge.

The difference between 60 and 120 is marginal, even though it's a larger increase.

Most people wouldn't benefit from a tickrate higher than 60 tick since their display has to refresh at least with the same rate.

It's still a huge fucking difference.

Consoles too?

thats because cs players are the whiniest bunch of faggots
if it was 124 they would be bitching its not 240

Get the fuck out/

Since when?

>Autismo thinks that a game is dead based the amount of threads on Sup Forums

Source has a shit ton of interp and other networking issues, but Counterstrike has a gameplay issue first that really causes problems.

Thanks for the info, OP

Looks like it's literally today, they're just now starting to add it to all the regions. Caveat is that the game will gauge your internet connection and automatically scale up or down update rate, and you can self-limit your bandwidth consumption. Have fun playing with 20 tick Roadhogs who refuse to change.

No update required?

because it didnt actually matter. they just wanted something to complain about, since it wasnt as high as other games they complained even though it didnt really affect that much

this is a shitty looking example, but I think it conveys the gist of what tickrate is.

Finally. Maybe now people won't get pulled through 700 fucking walls by a roadhouse as often now.

>Double the rate
>Not double the Xs
Should have just copy pasted the top line and added Xs in between each one.

I think the best example is
20 tick = getting killed behind walls a lot
60 tick = getting killed behind walls a lot less

> playing tracer will be fun now.

WOOOW

I wasnt trying to make it perfect, just conveying the basic idea

I used 10 spaces for 30 tick and 5 for 60 tick and it looked good enough.

it kept me skirmishing for 13 minutes today before finding a quick play game and this was during EU afternoon.

yes, the game is dead.

IT ISNT FAIR
YOU SAID OVERWATCH WOULD DIE
YOU SAID THE 20 TICK RATE WOULD MAKE IT DIE
DELETE THIS

No, that'll happen anyway and does so in any shooter with server side hitreg.

Player movement, or playing zarya for a game is the best example for why 20 tick is fucking horrendous.

Because counter strike players aren't massive casuals like overplebs?

>implying people care and understand tickrate
most people dont

>CSGO players
>Not massive casuals

Please, the only reason people play CS is because they're too scared to move on from a game they've invested 10 years of their life into.

It's too much effort for the average CS player to do anything but aim at chokepoints

isn't 128 tick the standard?

60 (64?) tick is the bar minimum a modern fps should have

This. Literally no announcement.

Blizzard didn't say shit and even overpwn, the defacto fansite for the game hasn't mentioned it either.

I thought people were just trolling at first until I saw proof.

30 tick is the standard

Overwatch was 20 tick untill recently.

60 tick SHOULD be the standard

Anything above that is gravy.

I've read some theories, but the most sensical one is that they're shamed.

Announcing that they implemented 60 tick would be like admitting that it should have been there from start

>I've read some theories, but the most sensical one is that they're shamed.

More like they're toggling it secretly, waiting for no one to notice it so they can say "See, 20 tick didn't matter".

>Ive noticed that I need to see into the future in order to hit anybody now myself.
>he can't predict enemy movements
>laughing paul atreides.png

>isn't 128 tick the standard?

Not, not even close. Only a handful of online games with any appreciable population use that.

I think the most likely is that they're simply implementing it for testing to see how it plays out without officially announcing it, since that introduces bias. They also don't have it on all regions yet, so they don't wanna get people hyped.

>They also don't have it on all regions yet

Does North America continue to be master race while yuropeons are 20 tick slave race?

Fuck off retard
>DON'T TALK ABOUT GAMES HERE ON OTHER PLATFORMS BECAUSE I DON'T LIKE IT

You're the reason Sup Forums is shit and 99% platform wars

Yeah that's what I assume is going on, they wanted to stealth impliment it and then a week later say "HAHA SEE?? These people still complained about tick rate when it's been 60 all week! XDDD"

Blizzard are stupid as fuck.

Except they put it as an option in the custom match mode since the beta, they have not put it into the main modes because they really want to level the game for third worlders and normal people alike because of their obsession with the e-sport meme.
The fact this makes the game an unplayable mess for everyone is just a side effect to them.

I'll only respect this game when it gets a server browser and people are given mod tools, IE never.

>most sensical one is that they're shamed.
Or they're testing it on a larger scale. Or they were going to announce it before fags started testing it.

Literally not everything is based on pride, I know this is a tough thing to understand when on Sup Forums 99.9% of arguments are based solely around pride, but there are other sensible reasons for their non-announcement.

>The fact this makes the game an unplayable mess

Nice meme

>server browser
ew even valve admits that was a mistake
>mod tools
>wahh if I cant make all of my characters look like inflated anime girls i wont play it
good riddance, you won't be missed!

I said 'yet', but they started it last night, so they may have already rolled it out to every region by now.

no one is discussing the tick rate because after playing the game everyone realize that there is far more wrong with overwatch than just the tick rate

>evil corp must be doing evil shit because I just think they're evil
*yawns*

This is tickrate btw

I still costs money even though there are micro-transactions
And I don't wanna support bs like cropping the FOV for 21:9 users as well as Blizzard's terrible balancing

2/10 not even mad

Wouldn't that just make the faggots complaining stupid as fuck?

>can't choose the server closest to my position so I can at least get a regular >50 ping experience when I want
>can't play with the same people I like unless they accept my obnoxious friend request
>unplayable precision characters 50% of the time

Not him but it's not perfect either, Overwatch feels like an unfinished game right now.

Do you mean more ticks helps or hurts her?

RIP ROADHOG

So you're shy? Why wouldn't you have to friend someone to stack with them?

We had a thread about it yesterday.
