If the target dies in the end, I am happy. That being said, I have to be accurate if I'm facing multiple opponents in a FPS.
Poll: Accuracy...Do you care?

I prefer accurate weapons, but not sniper rifles - too slow for my taste.
However, using, say, a Steyr Aug in a game with short bursts can be very accurate as well.

Also, excellent crossbowmen or archers were also considered sharpshooters, so it goes back even further than that.Spirultima said:

Acuracy only matters to me with a sniper but all my weps I go for rate of fire. So Sean Cnnerys advice goes out the window. I generally turn an assault rifle into a sniper because I'd have a higher rate of fire meaning if I miss well I got another shot miliseconds after.

I like semi-accurate weapons.
I like a bit of spray to hit all over their body and ab it extra, but some get ridiculously inaccurate so they are more likely to hit the environment than the person if aimed at the person (Although, IRL, if you aim a sniper rifle at someone and shoot, they get hit, while on games such as MW2, well, only call of duty, it can someone bend and go 3 metres sideways, this annoys me because i'm one of the not-many who can shoot as accurately without a crosshair).

Wow. Sorry man, but you really need to get over yourself.Spirultima said:
Anyway, I use a fully-automatic weapon and still go for accuracy. Believe it or not, just because it's fully automatic doesn't mean you need to hold down the trigger. Firing in bursts is what most people learn to do with them, and it works. It depends on the game, but assault rifles are great for taking people down far away as well as up close.
As long as the dude dies, I don't really give a damn what percentage of my bullets hit him. I mean yeah, it's BETTER if I hit him, but I don' think conserving ammo is a bigger priority than shooting at your enemy is.

Depends on how many enemies there are and how close to each other they are. If they are separated, then I prefer accuracy. If they are next to each other, I shoot like crazy so I can get them all at once.
its quite funny how spazzing out in front of an opponent can un nerve them, like physically spazzing out.Spirultima said:

Accuracy is good, because it means you consume less ammo. However, if I know I have far more ammo than I require, then I will indulge in spraying more lead than I usually do. No point leaving ammo to waste, right?
I play Bad Company, so I don't know how much different it is, but I do use fully auto weapons most of the time, although you still need some degree of accuracy, especially with problems like recoil on the LMG's.
I always pick the gun that fires the most bullets the quickest, and just spray in the general area. This habit comes from back when I use to play on a crappy high ping modem connection with half a second latency and actual aiming was impossible.
