I see you've discovered the time-honored sport of Reinhardt Tossing.
I've had some really stupid shit happen to me in this game but this is, by far, the most egregious.

Wait, is this game really just 20 tick?

Wow, how boring.
The pulse bomb came out within a few frames of you dying so that has nothing to do with the 20Hz update rate.
[QUOTE=PotatoArmada;50524038]Wait, is this game really just 20 tick?[/QUOTE]
No, it's 20Hz server to client update rate. The game is 60 tick. Please, please don't say 20 tick.

You do realise then, that technically it IS 20Hz and can cause issues when the return rate of data from the server is more than halved of the upload rate? You can't cram 60hz in 20hz returns.

All you need to do is try High Bandwidth post patch with a few friends and you'll see the difference easily between what's on public servers compared to that mode.

20Hz update rate is just as bad for getting shot around corners, but that's not the point. It's not the same thing as tickrate and every time you say 20 tick you make everyone collectively dumber by spreading misinformation.

Which is why I didn't.
Where's the bad reading rating when you need it.

[quote]Client Update Rate
The rate at which the client is willing to receive updates from the server. For example, if the client update rate is 20, and the server tick rate is 64, the client might as well be playing on a 20 tick server. This is often configured locally, but in some games cannot be changed.[/quote]
Basically, call it whatever you want to call it, Client Update Rate, Tick rate, Parasite Rate... They both affect one another and a low client rate ends up being the same as a low server tick rate.

You didn't, but you were responding to my reply to someone who did.
It's not true that you might as well be playing on a 20 tick server, the granularity with which you can move, aim, and fire is still 60Hz.
EDIT: I'm not defending the update rate either, I'm saying you shouldn't use the wrong terms.
I only said tickrate because that's what I saw in the video title, but sorry anyway.
[QUOTE=Altimor;50523855]
i broke it
EDIT: in-game it just went back to the highlight intro screen when the round ended but sadly i didn't record it then[/QUOTE]
i've mentioned it before, but once during the beta i got a PotG where it was just me as Roadhog slowly killing a Mei. She froze me twice and i eventually killed her, but it was pretty lame. Especially because if i remember right, a McCree killed at least 3 people with a High Noon later on in that game.

I'm just saying in general, not at you specifically.

This doesn't mean a damn if to the server I never ended up shooting anyway. Or that when I shot that person he wasn't in the place he was supposed to be according to my screen.
Or that I wasn't shot in my screen but was actually shot according to the server.
Throw at it all the jargon you want but the fact is a 20Hz client rate is detrimental to the game experience even with a 60hz server rate. (Otherwise blizzard wouldn't have bothered to include a high bandwidth mode, don't you think?)

Yes, but when you do fire successfully, 60 tick is vastly preferable to 20 even if the update rate is only 20. If you were only able to aim and fire at 20Hz, hitreg would be nearly nonfunctional and the game would be unplayable. The distinction is very important.
Played against a team that rocked double Mercy.
So much cancer.
You'd kill one then the other would res, kill the other and the other would res, and because their team was rocking tanks they got their reses so damn fast.
Somehow still won by locking them off the point but god damn it was annoying.

what

Wasn't cropping on purpose really, just a quick Puush screencap. At first I wasn't even gonna include healing, but 65 players knock back :v:
Man I really with there was a match log. I just had a 3 round match on Nepal where I had 51 eliminations and 39 objective kills but I forgot to take a screenshot of the after action report.
Damn, now that I've learned how to do the Genji Slingshot consistently, I can't stop using it.

Wait what is this? Is this something you can do anywhere or only in that specific spot?
I'm guessing he's "climbing" the ledge after getting momentum from swift strike, and it carries on until the "ledge vault", making his momentum absurd. :v:
