To me the simple solution would be to add crosshair deviation based on weapon recoil, movement, and terrain. Such a system was present in Mechwarrior 3 and it worked flawlessly.

I've also heard the TCL idea before, but to add that mechanic seems far more complex then my idea above.

...then again I've also heard the response that PGI simply CAN'T do that with the CryEngine, but I view that as more of an excuse rather then an explanation. The CryEngine is one of the most flexible engines out there. Hell, I've even played with it myself many times. I see no reason why my proposed mechanic or the TCL mechanic cannot be implemented.

I still really like Homeless Bill's original solution posted here. I'm totally linking to this from another similar discussion.

Bumping because it's still the best and most thought out solution to a long standing problem. The "inaccuracy" code already exist in the jumpjet code

This Idea needs to be revisited given what's on the PTS.
