Doubt all you want, makes me no difference. Answer me this though, just exactly where did I say anything about it being exactly like how the game depicts it? I didn't. I was speaking to the claim of the accuracy. If you knew what the hell you were talking about, then you would have seen that the methods of firing dealt with issues of recoil anyway. Hence "Burst" being the most accurate. Why? Lots of reasons that anyone with practical experince would know, but since you seem to be lacking in that department, I'll eloborate.=RvE=FuSiOn wrote:major if you have opperated the SAW, which i highly doubt but then humour me... You are saying its exaclty as it is in the game? no Recoil huh? and no muzzle flashes?
Makes u wonder...
Im thinking of changing my name to Colonel Klink so that i can make a claim of firing an Rpk-74 Lmg.
Funny thing is the Military personel in my squad seem to think otherwise about the support class from PR.
Peace
Burst fire is more accurate because the recoil from 3-5 rounds is far less than a string of 20 - 30 or simply depressing the trigger until you hear "click". A busrt WILL string rounds, but not as bad as prolonged fire. Burst also cuts down on barrel heat build up, thus reducing barrel droop, which will completely ruin accuracy at any medium to long range shots. Prolonged barrel heat can ruin a barrel, rendering it "shot out".
I also talked about search and traverse. There was no mention of accuracy or recoil there as I stated this method was used to flush out bad guys from heavy cover, meaning you know what AREA they are in but you can't see them. You are trying to either score a lucky shot or force the bad guys to flee from the fire zone.
I also mention supressive fire. No accuracy needed, this is used to keep the bad guy's head down while your team advances along vectors. Once the team has gone beyond the support gunner's effective "cover fire" cone of lead, the team then provides supressive fire to allow the support gunner to advance up to another covered and concealed position. Rinse and Repeat.
If you want to be smarmy, go post on planetbattlefield. If you don't want to read my posts before making comments on them, then try not to step on your johnson when doing so.
) You don't go through ammo as fast in the worst of situations with the slower gas setting rifle. on auto a squeeze of the trigger gave you 2 rounds with live ammo and 3 rounds with blanks (the 3 round burst of the M16 ingame drives me mad! in combat i'd hate to have to use a rifle that gives 3 round bursts)
Read my next post as I haven't figured out how to do two qotes in the same post. 
ops:
Well said. That's the reason for my main post in "all about snipers." I completly agree with you. I am growing more and more frustrated with the accuracy of the sniper rifles. A few times last night I was less than 100 meters from a target. The enemy had no idea wher I was, I was prone, he was standing perfectly still. I fired one shot at his head. Miss! 
Second shot (he didn't hear the report from the suppressed rifle). Miss! 
Now he moved to a different position. Shot 3. Miss!!!!!! AARGH!!! 
Now he had the idea someone was sniping when he only had his head poking out from cover, and still heard bullets flying by his head. How can 3 shots miss with a sniper rifle at 100 meters?!?!?!????? That is totally unrealistic. These rifles should be accurate to over 1000 YARDS as in real life.
