Problems with rubber-banding and freezing in CS:GO

counter-strike-global-offensive

I have started playing CS:GO, but I'm experiencing problems with rubber-banding and players and grenades suddenly freezing. This makes the game unplayable and I really need it fixed. I have played many multiplayer games and never experienced this before, it is exclusive to CS:GO. I have recorded a video of what is going on if it helps.

Does anyone know why this is happening, and how I can fix it?

The two most likely possibilities are playing with a high ping, or on a low-tick server. If you are on a valve server (64 tick) then you will probably be experiencing ping problems - in which case all I can suggest is you ensure nothing is nibbling on your bandwidth.

as someone who was born into laggy connections I can safely say any background downloads going on around the house can have a VERY severe impact to your connection
