Funny how all of you have different understanding of the same things. It's written in black and white, as mentionned by someone earlier :
Increasing the tickrate does improve the precision of hit detection, but also requires more CPU, memory, and bandwidth capacity for server and clients. Why debating this point ? Other than that, locking tickrate values would be silly, imho. Once again someone said it before me, playing with the tickrate can be useful, depending on what you're trying to achieve. And heck, let people do whatever they want with their servers. Still, I'd really like Valve/HPE to make a clear statement as to what tickrate would be ideal to use for different kind of servers, without messing up with the game physics and all (or at least, as little as possible). That would at least shut down this stupid debate where everyone is trying to explain how it works when you have no idea, really.
