What is the point of accuracy nerf?
Playing after this "change" makes me question Dice's ability to make decisions. Current changes make totally opposite of what they were meant to do - Noobs who can't hit their shots now can't hit t...

I agree, feels like this change came out of left field to me, I can't really recall a huge clamor asking for a change like this.
And now they're talking about targeting LMGs next, yikes!
- @Ironhead841 Exactly. And don't you worry, it gets worse. They've said LMGs and SMGs will be receiving even bigger accuracy nerf to force LMG players into pipod camping, and turning SMGs into trash tier weapons that can be removed from the game altogether.
This is just another thing to make it easier for new players. Since the spread is random, it is not like a better player will be more accurate at long range anymore. So it really evens the playing field. It is now to pray and spray, which new players are good at.
This is another change that no one asked for. The Devs are not BF Veterans, always remember that.
My theory is that making gun-play more skill-based with higher recoil are not possible to implement on controllers and will end up making crossplay a mess for Dice (with endless discussions about aim-assist etc etc), this is just me guessing though.
But if they increase spread, they need to make tap-fire work and that should be possible for all platforms. BF4 has some weird feeling gunplay, but it is probably the best balanced, we have had yet.
Getting rid of the 'just point and click-shooting' (with automatics at medium-range) would benefit the game.
