[Feedback] Add weapon accuracy of other players in replay

General Discussion
1

As the title says, please add statistic of other players that we can see.

What I have observe such that cheaters are using ‘aimassist/softaimbot’ instead of the usually ‘100% rage hacking’ style.

Able to see others accuracy will help our peace of mind of why we are losing/winning/ we are facing a cheater.

Should be an easy upgrade to the replay as the weapon accuracy already being calculated, just that it is being shown to the respective players instead #fingercross

Thanks for time of seeing this

Unless they add something to the accuracy system that ignores shots taken away from the action, smart cheaters will just use their infinite ammo to artificially lower their accuracy and make this change meaningless. In addition, having a good game where you’re landing more shots than normal isn’t something that should risk being punished for. Shooting the tank or other big models like Bastion can inflate your accuracy since they’re easier to hit, while shooting something agile like Tracer can lower your accuracy. Finally, while rank on average correlates to accuracy, there are people who can only aim well and are buns at the rest of this complicated game. There needs to be more than just “suspicious accuracy” to nail someone for cheating.

Your point is correct. I do believe that it will still help healthy players in reviewing the games played

As for the cheaters, yes cheater are very smart. However, the more blizzard create more features for us in deciding, the more cheaters have to think /act more that may show unusual behavior.

At the moment, I’m just giving feedback on displaying more stats in replay and not to change how the accuracy being calculated

Not a good idea. This information would easily become another reason to bully players who have a day with bad aiming. Cheaters can be easily found by only watching the replay. No need for more stats. Mostly because stats really don’t matter at the end of one game.

True.
Given the large userbase isnt on cheats, the feature will get used to bully others instead of in any positive way.

Also true.

Accuracy doesn’t really reflect any of that.

Winning/Losing if you shoot tanks all game you accuracy can be redonkulous but if you focus on the pick you need to win it can bottom out because your taking hard fights

Cheating while they can just shoot nothing to lower accuracy a player can have a high accuracy so unless they are rage hacking 100% ACC it doesn’t help.

For additional context if you feel you lose a game because someone else is missing shots, that doesn’t mean you couldn’t of done more or played better so why waste your time trying to find a scapegoat and try and learn how to adapt to players that underperform.
