Thread: Pistol and Rifle accuracy Test
Why are specials even doing better accuracy? They need to balance base accuracy, and just make all the specials use that. Period.
Sometimes i think the developers overthought too many of the basic parts of the game.. then turned into complete idiots when it came time for balancing all those seperate and minute parts.

This test was horrible. If this was a medical test it would get thrown out of the medical community without a second thought.
Find a pistol with an ideal range of 15 and use it at 60 meters. Then get a DLT20a with an ideal range of 45 and use it at 0 meters. Or, get a laser rifle (ideal range 60) and use it at 0 meters and get a pistol with ideal range of 0 and use it at 60 meters. This would provide a 60 meter difference for both weapons.
Finally, DONT use specials. Thats retarded. Im pretty sure that specials provide an accuracy modifier. Therefore, it ruins the test to use them. The best way to test accuracy would be to use REGULAR shots.
Tek, I did that, you never once looked at it? I posted it here, abou 3 days before the patch went live. People asked me to do it with specials, they also asked me to do it at 20 meters. Becuase the accuracy problem isnt in the base, its in the specials. You see that test above?
Whatits showing, is the bonus they get from pistol specials makes them near 90 percent acurate at 60 meters. While no specials, if you had read my other thread, would show that they do around 50 percent. I swear sometimes I think you just post to try and make me look bad.
To be honest, no. I didnt see the other test. Ill take your word for it, however, that it was done with the proper controls and bench marks.
This test, despite being horribly incaccurate, does show one thing perfectly clear: pistol accuracy at 60m NEEDS to be nerfed.
Nuff said.
