Summarize your bug This bug started around 2 months and a few days after the game was released when DICE announced that they would fix the minigun's convergence for the nightbird, making the bullets go where you aim. Unfortunately, the jet's 30mm cannons (mainly) were terribly affected accidently when DICE tried to fix miniguns convergence. The jet's 30mm cannons were never mentioned in any of the BF2042 updates to be nerfed in terms of accuracy. Even the 25mm cannons were bugged after that update. Probably only jet players noticed this bug and the significant inaccuracy that changed accidentally.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play with 30mm cannon on jet,shoot at a place and look at how much spread it has,with 90% of your bullets missing the target.
What happens when the bug occurs? the jet 30mm cannon bullets deviates and spread more than a shotgun
What should be happening instead? It should be accurate as it was in the first 2 months of the game
The video proving how precise and accurate the cannon was before the update #3 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkSBSsO-Er8&feature=youtu.be&ab_channel=Elvy
I was told by EA employee on live chat support to come here and post this as it may help this bug to be fixed sooner.
The update that caused the bug to jet cannons accuracy : https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/battlefield-2042-update-notes-3?isLocalized=true
If you go to the update #3 there is not a single mention about jets 25mm or 30mm cannon change,which makes me believe the changes to the nightbird minigun that made DICE accidently ruin the cannon accuracy..
