I recently started playing a little pub server but the usual fps i get ranges from 20-30 which sucks on surf i get 80-100fps a lot smoother why is there such a big difference pub maps are supposed to be optimized i think help me
Maps such as de_dust2 are better made than surf_japan, they have more details, they have HDR, they are made by Valve...!
In pub, depending on maps. there can be a lot of things happening in one place. example 3-4 players running togather, shooting, grenades, which drops the fps. Surf maps are wide, a lot of things might be happening in the server but as long as they arent happening on ur screen your fps wont drop that much. but im sure if there are a few of u in teh jail, you will experience a bit of fps lag..
