It is what it is.

My real gamertag is Boomerf16.

I know the new silenced SMG has a certain level of zoom but it seemed, from watching the campaign videos, that its accuracy improved when you zoomed in. Maybe I'm just crazy but I wanted to know if anyone else noticed this and has any thoughts.

I'll have to watch again

Yeah, in one of the weekly updates a while back it was stated that the SMG got an accuracy improvement for this game, since you can't dual wield them.

I meant to ask if the gun's accuracy improves after you zoom in.

But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.

Yea, i'm gonna go through some videos again.

Yep. Love Reach.

I don't know if it actually improves. It looks like it though.

It seems only natural for it to look like it improves. The reticle reduces in size if i'm not mistaken, so technically that should increase it's accuracy judging from the shapes and sizes of other weapon reticles, the smaller= the more accurate.

Just a theory :3

I understand that the reticle gets smaller but what doesn't make sense is how that would increase accuracy. Idk, maybe Bungie has an explanation.

A simple explanation is that you simply get a closer look at what you're shooting at. But hey! That's my guess haha.
