Accuracy?

[Argoms]

(Search for "accuracy" doesn't seem to give me anything useful)

Does the accuracy stat on weapons actually have any effect? Every weapon seems to be perfectly precise.

I wouldn't say perfectly precise, just don't have any recoil and the bullets spread.

IMO accuracy means a lot more for weapons that have recoil, erratic automatic firing, or spread.  The Boar is anything but precise and the Gorgon loses a huge chunk of its accuracy the second you hold down the trigger.

 Every weapon seems to be perfectly precise.

You've tried every weapon? Some of them are as far from perfectly precise as is imaginable.

[Argoms]

Well not every weapon, that was kinda overstating it. But lato, lex, bratons, burston, latron seem to always hit exactly where I'm aiming (whether or not the recoil has moved where I'm aiming away from my target is a different story). Obviously shotguns aren't going to be precise, but still- nobody seems to have answered my question.

 

What does the accuracy stat change? Does it actually do anything?

 

EDIT: Okay, bolto isn't consistent. Question still stands for the whole accuracy thing though.

Akbolto can be a tad inaccurate. man-sized targets aren't usually a problem, but hitting a security from across a room is frustrating.

Yeah, I've noticed that. Still- what does the accuracy stat on weapons actually measure? Things like ammunition capacity and damage are obvious, but accuracy- not so much.
