The two network quality measurements in the telemetry HUD measure the [i]tick miss rate[/i]. This number is how often the server or client is ready for the next tick, but the data needed to process the tick does not arrive on time.

The server sends messages containing game state updates ("[i]snapshots[/i]") at a regular interval, once per tick (Counter-Strike 2 uses 64 ticks per second). The downstream tick miss rate measures how often the client reaches the point in time where they need the next snapshot but it has not arrived.
The server sends messages containing game state updates ("[i]snapshots[/i]") at a regular interval, once per tick (Counter-Strike 2 uses 64 ticks per second. Deadlock uses 60 ticks per second). The downstream tick miss rate measures how often the client reaches the point in time where they need the next snapshot but it has not arrived.

Likewise, the client sends a message once every 1/64th of a second containing a [i]user command[/i] to the server, and the upstream tick miss rate is the percentage of ticks that occur on the server where the next user command has not arrived from the client.

Remember, the tick miss rate only counts network problems that cause a tick to be missed. [b]It's not just a measure of packet loss.[/b] If the number is 0%, it doesn't mean network conditions are perfect.
