A few questions - I am interested in buying a server

Post by kfnguy »

Heya I'm sorry if this is located anywhere else and if you don't want to give me straightforward answers if you could point me in the right direction to find these that would be awesome. I am interested in purchasing one for CS:Source.

1) Are all servers 100 tick?

2) How does the 2 day trial work? Do you get that after you pay for the server and during that time you have a chance to cancel? Or do you just sign up for a free trial?

3) Do you really recommend getting the ping accelerator option for a small server? How much does it help?


Thanks again for your answers.

Only accelerated or hyperaccerated servers can be set to a tickrate of 100. Nonaccelerated CS:S servers run at the default tickrate, 33.

The Paypal link includes the free trial and will not charge you until it ends.
3) Do you really recommend getting the ping accelerator option for a small server? How much does it help?
We recommend it for all servers. The extra ticks on the server increase its responsiveness considerably, which leads to faster and more predictable hit registration, among other things.
