Choke?
What is choke and is there a way to lower it? I'm too poor to get another computer right now
Choke happens when your client can't keep up with all the data the server is sending it, or vice versa. Sometimes it's a problem with your connection, but often it can be fixed by tweaking client variables. Specifically, rate, cl_updaterate, and cl_cmdrate are three variables you'll want to tweak. I use:
rate 10000
cl_updaterate 40
cl_cmdrate 40
You can try different values for them until your choke is reduced. There are also corresponding variables on the server, sv_maxrate, sv_maxupdaterate, and sv_maxcmdrate, that control the maximum values a client can choose (it won't send more than what you specify for that). You can also set minimums.
rate 10000
cl_updaterate 40
cl_cmdrate 40
