LMGs accuracy bug?

[NyteMyre]

I noticed this a few times while using the Automatic Rifleman kit.

I go prone and get into deployed mode. I zoom in and scan the horizon. I do not move with the WASD keys, only with the mouse. After a while I spot some enemy, and I want to shoot at them. But the gun still has the accuracy of an Irish drunkard.

After shooting a few rounds, the gun is accurate enough to shoot where I aim the crosshairs. Even though I am prone, did not move from my location and did not make any rapid movements with the mouse. You have to shoot first before the deviation gets to a minimum.

You said you wait "a while" after WASD movement. Is that less than 8 seconds? If so, that is the problem.

A while means more then 30 seconds....

I remember being on defense on one spot for 5 or more minutes without shooting (no movement, little to no mouse movement). And when I finally spotted an enemy group, the gun was still inaccurate.

what range were you firing at?

But the gun still has the accuracy of an Irish drunkard.

here is the cause

I zoom in and scan the horizon

you can easily check it, wait 8 seconds without mouse movement and fire- pin point accuracy
scan left and right- increase in deviation with lessening cone of fire after 1 second

Take 3 Bursts after waiting ~3 seconds, First will be Innaccurate, Second getting closer to the middle, and the 3rd will have a wonderful, accurate cluster.
