125th

You just answered your own question.

333

Good times.

Wish i could help more than the trolls. But alas no inernet to test it out. Other than mobile.

200

Hahaha this feels like effing Tek-9 all over the place when all these console gamers (or not) started COD promod. The daily thread. "250 fps or not" xD.

Also I don't understand how can people who use computers all day, and even play video games, don't understand that the higher the framerate the better it is.

Seriously, higher = better.

In the case of Quake Live, there isn't a big advantage, you won't become Cypher, and everyone can play good on both, this is like the mices thread "WMO?".

Also like H1ghlander said 333 is best if you want big advantage.

I like this reply

333 doesn't give higher/longer jumps in QL like in vanilla quake3.
250fps
- disadvantages: less footsteps sounds, some ppl have sensitivity or acceleration issues.
- advantages: more displayed frames on 144Hz LCDs and some CRTs, less tearing and stuttering, a little lower input lag.

I was joking about 333 fps :D, obviously we can't set 333 fps.
For the engine bugs, like footsteps, these are things that should be fixed, for the sensitivity and acceleration issues as well. But I remember I read a post from SyncError, the said normally there will be no bad impact using 250 fps, well it's not that bad, it's not like people who have these issues can't use their previous settings right? They'll just have to wait if they don't mind (not like they have any choice but to wait anyway).

yeah all people don't know how to use it. ofcourse you have to set cg_placebo to com_maxfps / -6.22669351733.

so in case if 250 maxfps, cg_placebo has to be: -40.1497197998

this will also remove stuttering and higher sens issues on most systems.

Why? What does placebo do?

I can't tell, just try it though.

There is no sensitivity/accel issue, but different mouse feel that "tricks" the players into thinking there is something wrong.

144 fps the best cuz of 144 hz screen

you won't get 144 fps in ql :)

most likely 160 fps will work with that

im using 125 because im not really sure about the relation between maxpackets and maxfps but the higher the fps my ping varies
at 125 fps i get 38 at 144 fps i get 42 at 250 i get 44-48

The mouse feel change for sure with maxfps 250 on samsung 2233rz. Feels slower for me. O.o

250 is better in every way except for footsteps bug :(

Please elaborate that for me. What bug?

footsteps are not completely fps independent. I believe you hear half the footsteps when over 200 fps.
