7:42 About the dropping part in "Gun Into The Next Round"... If you drop your gun VERY early at the start of a round, which I used to think was the very first tick of a round, you will drop your gun right behind yourself instead of throwing it in front of you like a normal person. Could that be related in some way?

[@niismo.]

Probably a ping related thing with the server not updating the way you are facing in time for the first tick. That's my guess

one time I was on the bot and accidentally dropped my gun at the very last frame of the round and it dropped into my hands the very next round on faceit, I was so surprised or the bot instantly dropped it but I'll never know

What do you mean fake reloading is a myth? It is real and it is being used in comp. Yes, the sound does cut off when you switch but it is not the entire sound that tricks with your enemies, it is the beginning that messes with them.

[@ashwinmurty1453]

The 64tick vs 128tick fall damage has to do with how computers register thingns with diff tick rates they usually register at the beginning of the tick however that in relation to ur fall is variable ofc the tick rate is so fast its impossible to time and inperxeivable to humans but thats why it varies ever so slightly

​@@vooCSGO The '4 Ways to throw nades', 'Growling in Apartments' (i would have to take a look at the map file to know for sure but I think standing there as a spectator counts as a player), for the 'Molotov Damage' you did not test it with autobunnyhopping to check if there could even be an advantage in theory, for the 'Smoke through the Ground' there are 100% recreateable lineups, '64 vs 128 tick smokes' is just plain wrong. Every moving utility-throw is affected by tickrate by nature of tickrates.. The tolerances allow the lineups you threw to still work but they are not "exactly the same". The 'Peekers Advantage' does not take interpolation into account. Disagree might've been wrong word usage, I'm currently ill, sorry about that. I guess I was a little frustrated plus missing a few technical details, sorry if I gave off a shitty impression with that.

@@vooCSGO Also, isn't it 5 ways to throw? depending on whether you let go of left or right click first

[@muffinman2621]

Fall damage difference happens for the same reason as the jumpthrow difference: air acceleration is calculated at different intervals (1/64 vs 1/128).

[@hartonosutrisno5452]

Also, 64 and 128 tick have different damage/hitbox register due faster ticks mean you will deal more damage than slower ticks. If you set at 32 ticks, you will deal even less damage from falling and setting to 256 ticks can cause lethal damage even on low jump. This kind of mechanics were applied to other games way before this game released.

[@laggybear829]

By the time your enemy makes sure the reload sound was short enough to be a fake he's too late to peek anyway, so you can catch a dude REALLY willing to push that smoke with your fake reload, since he has to react fast. Seen pros do it successfully. I'd say the thing to make it believable is not the reload itself but more the amount of bullets you spent before "reloading". If you reload after firing 3 bullets, fewer people will fall for it.

[@Aryasvitkona]

2:50 I remember at some point there was actually a difference between a T Molotov, and a CT Incendiary. I think it was an armour mattering difference, but I *think* it got patched out years ago. But it *was* true for *one* of the grenades a long time back

[@slendydie1267]

idk if its fixed but incendiary used to deal less damage if they had armor

[@sipinosapa]

Wasent patch so much as they were made so that no fire from either grenade had an advantage over the other. Essentially Molotov dealt more direct damage to your health while the Incendiary did more damage to your armor.

[@sourcelocation]

9:33 It’s the other way around, A has a higher pitch than B :)

[@mabciapayne16]

I hear the opposite o.O Plus A plays two sounds simultaneously I believe.

[@vooCSGO]

you're right. somehow i got the audio lines backwards in the timeline cuz the bombsite is labeled correctly lol

[@TheKonu]

I was just about to comment this, A site plays the C note, while B site plays the A note. Its confusing, but also very useful in maps like Nuke xD

[@JarinCOD]

That's not a myth. R sound when you press R is enough to convince an enemy to peek.

[@VADemon]

8:00 dropping gun into next round: I managed it once, but it was different: 1) played as a bot 2) press Drop on last tick 3) bot dropped the gun at spawn, when everyone respawned

[@vooCSGO]

thats actually super cool thanks for sharing!

[@antanis]

for tick rate changing fall damage i suspect it has to do with how they calculate falling speed. more samples/ calculations would slightly increase you falling speed up to a limit, and id bet that 64 and 128 are far enough below the limit that going up increases damage taken for some specific fall distances and speeds.

[@steverho3280]

Yeah that seems plausible

[@Beeblebr0x]

6:12 it's probably because the fall distance is measured by the time you travel to the ground(in ticks) and then it's rounded up to HP. As you could intuitively guess different number of ticks makes different results.

[@cpthrki5852]

It would be an extremely amateur error not to use delta time for this, plus if this were the case, the damage would be doubled.

[@Beeblebr0x]

@@cpthrki5852 No, it wouldn't have to be. Imagine 64 ticks meaning one second passed and same 128 tick one second has passed. Whereas it wouldn't be so simple 1 second = 1hp but for example 20. Then if you have more ticks you can more precisely measure the fall damage. And yes it would be dumb.

[@cpthrki5852]

@@Beeblebr0x Ah I see what you mean, it probably captures slightly more distance than 64 tick in some cases because it's more accurate. That could very well be the reason.

[@thomascrawley99]

@@cpthrki5852 Yep, it has double the data to make its calculations with, so naturally it makes sense that some would round up and some would round down, resulting in slightly different values between engines even with identical settings.

[@grqfes]

@@Beeblebr0x that makes a lot of sense

[@neekopat]

6:28 there's a youtube video by Kerluck that explains why that's the case. He explains it way better but the jist of it is that 128 tick updates twice as much as 64 tick and fall damage is determined by z-axis velocity. When falling on the sandbags in vertigo for example, the player will be much closer to the sandbag on 128 tick before they land compared to 64, and due to their velocity, they will take damage.

[@Kerluck]

I have taught you well.

[@adams3903]

so in the high ping vs low ping, what would it look like for someone who gets 5-20 ping instead of the "low" 60 tested in the video? Would holding angles be even stronger? I play on swedish server when almost everyone has ping extreamly low.

[@oleksandrmarkovichenko5774]

the peeker's advantage is always a thing in fps games. No matter how low your ping is, there is always a delay from the server side upd: so it depends on the game optimization. You almost don't feel it in cs; however, in something like eft, it's just stupidly advantage

[@Sam-es2gf]

Not if your ping is the same. However, you're not going to get punished as severely as every other non-swede doing the same thing. I love having 60-80 ms when every fucking smurfing 5 stack Markus, Lars and Nikolai has 5 ping.

[@grqfes]

man i play eu and every opponent has under 20 ping every match someone on the enemy team has 5 ping and i get 40 - 1000 because sometimes mid game my internet spikes

[@vooCSGO]

take this with a grain of salt cuz i just play the game and have seen videos on the topic, so my technical understanding won't be perfect: my understanding is that peeker's advantage isn't that much of a thing (ping wise), since while the high ping peeker may see you sooner, it also takes longer for his bullet to reach the server. what you actually have is more like unpeeker's unadvantage (angle holder disadvantage), where the peeker's advantage you see is mostly determined by how high the ping of the person holding the angle is. 5 = barely any, 200 = a ton. obviously there's the general human benefits of peeking out on someone (crosshair placement, your head could be in different angles, etc) but having high ping shouldn't generally make your peeker's advantage too much better. (though, ping definitely does play *some* factor) that being said, i couldn't find a way to test out it potentially being harder to deal with someone swinging on you with high ping, which wasn't addressed in the video about peeker's advantage i'm referencing. tldr; the lower your ping, the less of a disadvantage you have while holding angles, but you don't lose much of your advantage while peeking into people because it's the ANGLE HOLDER's ping that matters... so far as i understand.
