How to Optimize My CS2 Server for Smooth 128-Tick Classic FPS Experience?

Post by jhonnmick »

Hey everyone,

I’ve been setting up a Counter-Strike 2 server and I’m aiming to recreate that smooth, classic FPS feel with a stable 128-tick rate and low-latency gameplay. Performance is solid overall, but I’m still noticing some inconsistent hit registration and occasional rubberbanding during peak traffic.

Has anyone here fine-tuned their server configs or network setup to get that old-school, no-nonsense CS feel? I’d appreciate any advice on server rates, tick settings, or even hardware/network recommendations. Also curious if anyone's tested mods or custom configs that improve the classic experience.

Thanks in advance — would love to hear from the veterans here! 🙌
