I played the BF2 demo back before release and was turned off by several things, but the #1 issue for me was the unreasonable miss rates at point blank range. There was hypothesizing that BF2 modeled weapon accuracy as a cylinder of fire instead of the more appropriate cone of fire. Anyone know about the accuracy model or whether completely missing over and over at point blank is still the norm?

I've been in situations where i'm facing an enemy and i'm SURE that i've just unloaded nearly a whole magazine into him before he drops me with a straw and some wet tissue paper. Sometimes you just miss!

anyways - yes the physics have gotten a little better. At close range the accuracy has been improved and at long range it has also been improved.
The cone of fire has returned - although I wouldn't call the 1.0 physics a cylinder. A pkm, for example, can now hit a guy that's standing right in front of you even while you are walking, yet walking and shooting the pkm is still wildly inaccurate at long range (as you would expect.)
I think you'll be surprised.

Yeah, I agree with troybob. The support guns were the best example of unreasonably bad accuracy. You could stand 2 feet away and fire 30 rounds before you killed someone. Thankfully they have fixed that somewhat, although now that support guns may be a bit too good.

Re: Cone or Cylinder of Fire?
you wanna talk about bad close range combat? me and a friend were in an empty server tking each other. we were 3 feet away, and i shot a 6" behind him as he ran by and somehow 2 shotted him in the kneecap...and this is a very low ping/lag server.

There's no reason you should miss from that distance.
