Laggy Stuttery Teleporting Zombies

I've dealt with this problem for a long time but I'm curious, is it possible to have low lerp settings and not get Zombies that seem to teleport around on Valve servers

When I play on high tickrate servers this isn't an issue but those are hard to find :/

Keep in mind this is not an FPS issue. I usually have decent ping (50-60)

I can post my exact lerp settings in about half an hour if that would help.

Edit: thanks for the answers guys. got different settings and they don't teleport now. higher lerp though :'/

no. its best to use the best lerp setting that is smooth on valve servers and leave it at that as thats about the point of diminishing returns.

The reason it doesn't occur on high tickrate servers is not because they're high tickrate, but because the server is hosted by someone that knows the cvar to make the common not laggy for those on low lerp.

The cvar is: nb_update_frequency, and for it to have smooth common for 0 lerp players it'd have to be at 0~0.024 (the default value is 0.1).. So yeah, you'd need a server where the admin has lowered the value.
