STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT THE NEW ACCURACY!

[TheOperator]

This is ridiculous, people have been complaining about the Rifle's accuracy (nerf, buff or otherwise) since the 0.54's. ;/

There has only been one time since .21 (when I started playing) where the accuracy has been changed as drastically as it has in this update (it was an even worse change in the past, at least ben didn't completely screw things up as poorly as he did in the past)

EVERYBODY had a big fit and he IMMEDIATELY changed it back the next update
We can only hope he listens to the community again and changes things back...again.

Sadly there has been a large influx in young and POOR players who cant notice the difference on account they miss shots all the time and chalk it up to their own inadequacies, when us vets notice the difference is related to a change in the rifle.
So there aren't as many people complaining this time around...

(I came here during the 0.50's, so I wouldn't know about 0.21.) I dunno about you, I might not be able to score headshots nearly every single time but my marksmanship isn't hampered all that much with the Rifle's cone at the moment. You can't please everyone, sadly.

When you get as good as some of the people who have been playing as long as me (and there are people better then me even still) a corner of somebodies head at fog distance is not a difficult target (when stationary) But since the update it would be impossible to make a shot like that with one bullet (unless you are lucky)

And yes, I have tested it many times on my non pyspades server on STATIONARY targets, so lag CANNOT be blamed.
Some people wanna say it shouldn't be fair for people to pick you off with just the tiniest bit of your head showing, but I say to them just get better and you can do the same!

When you had to get fog-distance headshots with the original ironsights (sights you could barely see out of) it trained you to pick up the tiniest amount of movement and be PRECISE when firing, now you all have these dots and open-ended sights which might help you acquire targets faster, but hampers your marksman abilities for fine detail.

Way to make everyone happy:
Standing still or crouching = 100 % accurate
Moving = Cone of fire

ey?

Ahhh, I remember now. Yeah, I admit that I can't nail shots like that anymore but hey, it's a small price to pay for others who don't want to get sniped the moment they stick even a little bit of their head out. (In my opinion anyways.)

Its inaccurate while standing/crouching perfectly still.

[rensdragonlord]

Yeah,The Rifle's accuracy needs to be fix(I'd prefer the old Rifle back).It's really getting annoying and frustrating when you perfectly aim to the enemies head and just missed because of it.Ben,Please just PLEASE bring the old Rifle back! I beg of you.

[KomradeKorakoff]

Okay, so. Read it, but doesn't change my view.

Still hate it. Why?

1. Stand still
2. Shoot someone 10 blocks away
3. Miss

-My scope/target.png is precise
-Both standing still in a controlled experiment

This just happens too often in firefights, and in the end, someone gets mowed by an SMGer a whole coordinate away

[MrHaaaaaaxFF]

ok just get it theres a way to fix rifle's accuracy:
Make your aiming dot thingy exactly at 399,300. Toally helps.

For all of those realism freaks, you need to understand that this is a VIDEO GAME.

SCREW REAL LIFE

We want a pinpoint accurate rifle (cause that's what made the game fun).

If you want realism go play America's Army.

So you're using real life logic on the rifle, but game logic on the shotgun? damn..
Would be so much better if we just got bullet drop :p

bullet drop and zoom (not mentioned in your post im well aware) dont really work in this game given how close the fog/render distance is. I mean, unless you want to make a laughably short arc, in which case make the gunshootwavs a fart noise to add to the cartoonyness of the game.

I would be fine with this.
Smg and shotgun need to be .70 versions though.

[rensdragonlord]

So,Yeah,Almost 65%(?) of this community agreed that Ben needs to put the old Rifle back. 'nuff said.

Yey.

Really, this is what I wanted in the first place. Semi should be a gun about accurate shooting, not running n' gunning.
