In any game other than L4D2, I choose my shots carefully. I still tend to favour weapons with full-automatic capability, but I'd pick them for their large magazine size, relatively high accuracy, and decent damage-per-bullet. I do what you're supposed to do with an automatic weapon: Fire in short bursts. If you spray and pray, you're doing something wrong.
THe mian multiplayer game I play is Counter Strike and accuracy is vital to succes in that game.
In single player I tend to do the same as it its just so much more satisfying. Headshotting a splicer with the pistol in bioshock is so rewarding, seeing them sway for a second before finally going down was my favourite part of the combat.

Although I most commonly use assault rifles and SMGs I do prefer to be accurate. In CoD4 I love the G36C just for it's accuracy.
Accuracy is everything for me. If I don't hit, I shoot more. If I shoot more, I run out of ammo quicker. If I run out of ammo, I may not be able to take out the next guy who comes up.
This for me. However, practical reasons aren't the only reason why I care about accuracy. I just like clean, quick, accurate kills (it's why I play the Sniper in TF2 so much). Quickly switch between targets, popping each with a short burst. Makes me feel professional, badass.Hail Fire 998 said:
Do I care about my accuracy? Yes. Am I accurate? Hell no.
I'm very inaccurate as a rule in FPSs, but even I can still make it through MW2 on Hard difficulty by sheer persistence (and thanks to checkpoint overkill).

Depends on the prevalence of ammo.
If you're not accurate in, say, Oni, don't bother using anything but the Screaming Cannon and SMG.

Congratulations
. I can't believe no-one got it sooner though. For those of you who don't know, Connery plays Allan Quatermain and in the film he teaches West's character Tom Sawyer to shoot properly. No trigger happy Yanks shooting everything in sight, if you want to actually be a good marksman then you need to aim...
depends on the game, for halo I like to get up close and batter people. I did an awesome move the other day when I launched my buggy off a hill, jumped off in midair, sprayed a fuckload of battle rifle ammo at my friend then landed right next to him and then twatted him in the face for the kill.
It depends really, if the game is good and the AI is a worthy fighter or if in multiplayer and your opponent is a strategist then accuracy isn't needed, just spray all over the shop and run away!.Spirultima said:
