Tips

  • To turn off the frame rate, type "cl_showfps 0" (again, don't type the quotation marks!)
  • If you are consistently having under 50 FPS, consider upgrading your graphics card.

Warnings

  • Remember to watch your enemy more than the frame rate or your team will get annoyed by your performance and you may be kicked.
