Finally.

So what are good accuracy values to have for each weapon?

Accuracy is kind of a bogus stat, considering I can sit and shoot a rifle at a tank or helicopter, do no real damage, but increase my accuracy as much as I want.

I'd say K/D values with weapons is more telling of how well you handle yourself with said weapon/kit.

i have to agree with Torin.

i can remember a few times while commanding that I've seen snipers sit in the enemy's main base (that we had taken) firing round after round into their commander assets...then asking for supplies so they could get more ammo.

I'll take "That is bullshit" Alex for $2000.


Your accuracy only registers when your cursor reticule flashes.  And sniper rifles versus commander assets definitely do NOT register as hits (Tank shells however do, as well as C4, Jet bombs, and artillery).

Yes, hence it is a bogus stat. I'd say of any form of stat padding, accuracy padding would be the easiest and most inconspicuous.

What about the M95 vs. commander assets?

It doesn't register with M95 too.  M95 registers with infantry, transport (land/sea/air), attack choppers, jet fighters, and the USS Essex minigun only.

Just the other day, I saw a sniper (obviously with an M95) taking shots at a UAV trailer. And it started to smoke. I happened to be an anti-tank, so I unloaded a rocket at it and it blew up! I was amazed. He must have been shooting at it for awhile. Must have been pissed when I got the point for the taking out the asset.... haha.

Nyte, go shoot the enemy arty guns.  It'll show that you're hitting it.

I'd say K/D values with weapons is more telling of how well you handle yourself with said weapon/kit.
Even then, this stat isn't very accurate because of deaths by artillery, choppers, jets, and vehicles. If the stats broke down to show your K/D including ONLY deaths by infantry weapons then you'd have a better figure.

In a way, if that is the information you are going for. But considering that it does include deaths by artillery, choppers, jets and vehicles, it gives you a bigger picture of how you handle yourself, not just how well you kill, but also how well you survive with that weapon class. Regardless, K/D is pretty arbitrary considering there are so many ways to kill and die, but less arbitrary than accuracy.
