at max_fps 20 it is really 10 bullets/sec <a href="http://img237.imageshack.us/img237/7928/lmgrofal1.gif" target="_blank">http://img237.imageshack.us/img237/7928/lmgrofal1.gif</a>

58 fps is like being on catalyst compared to 60. just as the graph shows. where do you think he got it from? imagination? all the veterans talk about 200 being the best fps, try flying jp there, your lateral speed is like doubled.

they prove nothing but how badly valve thought out their GoldSrc engine
It does actually work. I was playing on 60fps since a few days ago and could barely kill skulks early game. (w0) I just thought I was terrible at aiming.. Then I switched to 58fps after reading some of the material on the subject and all of a sudden I was popping skulks ten times easier. I doubt my aim improved in the few days I've been using 58fps so it must account for something.

I have <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=105038&view=findpost&p=1798866" target="_blank">predictions</a> based on measurements at 200 fps, but I haven't actually measured any quantities in the range 171-199 fps or above 200 fps.
200FPS JPHMG is crazy, given that its a "lucky" intersection point of high acceleration and highest DPS for LMG or HMG. A player who can utilize this is very very deadly. It takes a very silled fade to kill the best JPHMG's. This has been common knowledge in competitive NS for almost a year and a quite a few individuals have known this long before. 400 or 500 is even better for Jetpack. Haven't tested that much though because I cannot maintain that much FPS in combat.
On an additional note, this may be fixed in a <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/forums/index.php?showtopic=109728" target="_blank">in the patch</a> that still might happen although not that likely. There's some discussion about how it works and whats wrong with it.

your internet browser abilities prove nothing either.
why not fire up ns1 and try the different framerates for yourself!

anyways, graph looks legit.

Always play in the same server.
58 fps firerate is way faster than 60 fps. I tested it.
Does this ( bug ?! ) still effect the source engine?
It's the difference between attacking every third frame and attacking every fourth.
otherwise, mad props to you for scientifically and methodically going about this stuff!
