A-Team Firing	comment	More Dakka is claimed by many to be the most reliable way of killing something, but strangely there are a lot of shootouts on TV where the number of bullets fired seems inversely proportional to their likelihood of killing or even wounding anyone. Heroes and villains can expend enormous amounts of ammo shooting at each other, often with automatic weapons and/or at very close range, yet everybody important is protected by Plot Armor. Only a mook or a Red Shirt has anything to worry about, and sometimes even they will be defeated or driven off non-lethally. It's not that the bullets aren't potentially lethal, but everyone's accuracy is so horrible that they seem to hit everything except their foe, even in situations where they have a clear line of fire and you'd think it would be almost impossible to miss. When the fight's over, all the property and vehicles in the area will be chewed up with bullet holes, yet there will be no perforated corpses to match. This trope differs from Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy in that instead of just the bad guy's mooks being unable to hit the hero as he slaughters them with his own Improbable Aiming Skills, A-Team Firing makes everybody on both sides keep missing. Perhaps this trope is employed as an alternative to the opposite extreme of Guns Are Worthless and Annoying Arrows. A writer trying to be realistic about how dangerous both arrows and bullets are in the right hands would have to make the people firing them unable to hit the broad side of a barn in order to draw fights out for dramatic effect. In the case of the Trope Namer, however, the real reason was that The A-Team was nominally a kid's show in prime time, and killing was a network no-no; it was overlooked at the time due to the Rule of Cool, and in fact, the movie remake was heavily criticized by fans for actually showing the heroes killing people. This trope can be related to instances where the goodies deliberately miss their shots because they do not wish to kill anyone, but ironically the intentionally non-lethal use of firearms tends to require the opposite trope — Improbable Aiming Skills — for tricks like Blasting It Out of Their Hands or winging the bad guys in order to invoke Only a Flesh Wound. Most of the time, A-Team Firing is depicted as unintentional. The opposite of this trope is Improbable Aiming Skills, and the bladed weapon counterpart is Flynning, in which swords clash but nobody goes for the kill. Contrast Murphy's Bullet, because stray projectiles always hit someone important. See also Bloodless Carnage and Non-Lethal Warfare, which often motivate this trope. Compare Powerful, but Inaccurate, when the inaccuracy is canonically a property of the weapon. See also Amusingly Awful Aim. Examples

A-Team Firing / int_13f21e09	comment	Most unit firing in Company of Heroes falls under this. Especially with tanks and vehicles firing on infantry - mostly for balance reasons. Of course, the moment you enable the Direct Control feature for most vehicles by using, say a mod... and are, for example, controlling a Wirbelwind Flakpanzer (four x 20mm) or an M3 Halftrack with the Maxson Mount upgrade (4 x 12.7mm, aka .50cal) then infantry will get PULVERIZED by your attacks. The American and Wehrmacht Engineers epitomize this in the game - their chance of hitting enemies at long range is 0.1 with their submachine guns. Reasonable for long-range, right? Well, even if at kissing distance, their accuracy's best is 0.3. Moving multiplies their accuracy by 0.15. They are unable to hit anything while moving, no matter how close. Standing still only makes them lackluster. Though after spending a few munitions, they can get their hands on a Flamethrower, and they become dangerous. They don't call it Pyro Spam for nothing. Lampshaded by the Rangers upon receiving the Tommy Gun upgrade: "Spray and pray, the SMG way!" However, since accuracy is inversely proportional to distance, they give up some medium- and long-range firepower (which is what Riflemen are for) for being absolute infantry-shredding terrors at short range.

A-Team Firing / int_1a1a594f	comment	Seen in the Battlefield series due to its use of realistic firearm accuracy. Automatic fire from a shoulder-fired weapon will have little chance of hitting the target, doubly so if you are shooting on the run. Heavy support weapons have even worse accuracy when fired from a standing position and will have problems hitting a target even at point-blank range. This results in numerous instances of soldiers circling around each other at arm's length burning through their entire magazine without hitting a thing.note These are likely veterans of earlier, Quake-style FPS games that emphasized movement over cover as effective defense. Network latency may also be to blame. Shooting from a prone or crouched position increases accuracy, along with using controlled semi-automatic fire or short automatic bursts, just like in Real Life. Taken to ridiculous, possibly parodying lengths in Battlefield Heroes; unless using the scope, the Commando's sniper rifle can actually hit things behind the gun's barrel.

In Descent 1, all the enemies fire right at you, which means you can dodge their shots (which is difficult but still possible with homing missiles). In Descent 2, certain enemy robots simply spread a lot of bullets in your general direction, which means that even if you evade there's still something heading for you.

A-Team Firing / int_2af4f467	comment	This trope runs rampant in G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero. The only exception is when shooting at robots or a manned vehicle, wherein the people inside get to escape before the vehicle is destroyed... often making their escape before even coming under fire, let alone the vehicle actually taking any damage. Homestar Runner parodied G.I. Joe in a commercial for the Cheat Commandos. The Commandos and their perpetual enemies, Blue Laser, have their vehicles lined up only a few feet from each other and firing like crazy, but nothing gets hit. Parodied in an episode of Twisted Toyfare Theatre when Spider-Man says "You'd actually hit something if you aimed lower", physically pushes Duke's gun down, resulting in a dead Cobra trooper and everyone staring in shock. Also parodied in Robot Chicken Series 4 where both Duke and Cobra Commander note that their respective "Walls of Honour" don't list a single name (aside from Junkyard the dog who died after eating too much chocolate) But averted in the later Resolute mini-series which not only shows most shots by the Joes hitting their targets, but several Joes — including "kind-and-gentle" Scarlett — killing unaware soldiers in cold blood in order to infiltrate a Cobra base. Parodied in the Community episode, "G.I. Jeff", where Jeff Wingman outright kills Destro during a firefight, instead of just allowing him to perform a Villain: Exit, Stage Left as usual, and gets court-martialed for this act. Jeff tries defending himself in court by pointing out that abstaining from killing Cobra members just means the war will go on forever, lampshading Status Quo Is God, but this just ends up getting him thrown into prison. The Cobras, meanwhile, are in a state of shock since this is the first fatality they sustained in all the years of fighting the Joes. It also causes financial problems for the Cobras since their insurance rates go up and their soldiers now demand hazard pay. It is also inverted when Jeff fires his submachine gun in order to lay some harmless suppressing fire and instead kills a squad of Cobras and accidentally sets Lifeline on fire. Averted in The Venture Bros.' parody of the G.I. Joe opening sequence. Not only are OSI agents shown gunning down SPHINX goons, there's also lots of blood to go around. OSI is also depicted as extremely brutal, with a couple of Kick Them While They Are Down moments like shooting an ejected pilot, multiple agents ganging up on one downed goon and beating him with their rifle stocks, etc.

If you do have said item, at around -900% accuracy the bullets stop being ridiculously inaccurate and start being impossibly inaccurate. They'll take sharp turns in mid-air, zig-zag, land behind you... Anything you hit will be either by pure luck or sheer weight of numbers, but anything you hit will also die.

A-Team Firing / int_3717ea4a	comment	The DC Animated Universe version of Batman frequently swung down to kick automatic-weapon-toting enemies, inexplicably not being hit by the massive amounts of lead coming his way. Bullets coming his way seem to vanish into the aether milliseconds before they should rightfully swiss-cheese him. In the comics, the main reason Batman operates at night as well as the massive cape he wears are to cause this trope by having the darkness plus their fear cause the shooters be unable to effectively aim at him, the heavy body armor deals with the few shots that do get through. The Adventures of Dr. McNinja referenced this directly, with more logical results. Gotham Knight has some fun with this, where Bats tries to run straight at Deadshot while the latter is blazing away with a two-barreled automatic Arm Cannon... and connects. Cue Deadshot quipping about how this was the first time he had ever seen anyone try to dodge his bullets by running at them.

A-Team Firing / int_3bce4381	comment	Trigun. Because the main character can dodge bullets and refuses to kill or seriously injure his enemies, 99% of the bullets fired in the series accomplish nothing besides property destruction. In fact, in the teaser to the first episode, a bunch of criminals unload countless rounds of ammunition into a restaurant. When they stop, the whole building's been demolished except for Vash, the stool he's sitting on, and the little bit of counter in front of him, which are all completely unharmed. In the actual first episode, the reason that little slice of real estate is unharmed is that it was shielded by the tavern's very sturdy sign, which, when no longer propped up by the repeated impact of incoming bullets on one side, fell over. It wasn't so much that they all missed the target as that there was something bulletproof in the way.

The idea is that if either Kirk or Spock is downed while in battle, they can be supported by their partner to a safer location, and provide some covering fire in the process. Unfortunately, the actual end result is less "lucky shot by the injured victim saves selfless rescuer" drama and more "Beam Spam meets Ragdoll Physics" comedy. The bolts actually start to fire everywhere but where Kirk is aiming in that particular instance. The enemy AI's inability to aim worth a crap only lends itself further to this trope.

A-Team Firing / int_4e9f355	comment	Played straight in Crisis Core when Zack not only stands still when facing a hail of bullets but TALKS ON HIS FREAKING CELL PHONE! The incident takes place during a virtual training mission, so one wonders if whether the event was merely overconfidence on Zack's part, or whether something was wrong with the simulated opponents' targeting algorithms — obviously no aimbots here! — or whether it's an accurate reflection of the average Shinra trooper's marksmanship. The trailer for the remake of FF7 shows Cloud in a similar situation, though with real bullets this time. While he's at least making himself a moving target, it still boggles the mind as to how he managed to get through that without a single scratch. Either his Mako enhancements had something to do with it, or Shinra Infantry really are that bad of a shot.note However, the simple explanation is Rule of Cool.

A-Team Firing / int_58a0656b	comment	One of the main gameplay mechanics behind PAYDAY 2 is that weapons have stats determining how accurate they are (how close to the center of the screen the bullets land) and how stable they are (how much recoil causes them to pull upwards). Attachments can be added as well to modify their stats, but for the most part, increasing one stat means decreasing another, meaning that to make a gun stable under automatic fire, or heavily concealable for stealth, the player will almost always have to sacrifice any semblance of accuracy; failing that, focusing on high accuracy will usually impact the stability, requiring slow and careful shot placement because the weapon will pull up a noticeable amount with each bullet fired, especially in full-auto. The fire-mode-locking mods exemplify this further, with the one to lock a weapon in semi-automatic increasing accuracy while decreasing stability, and the one that locks one in full-auto doing the opposite.

Even the normally deadly-accurate tangos occasionally exhibit Stormtrooper marksmanship. The Vegas series allows you and the enemy to blind-fire weapons from behind cover, which, while it has protection advantages compared to popping out of cover to aim, is horrifically inaccurate and only really useful when enemies are close enough that they would instantly kill you if you popped out to aim - the only two reasons you really have for doing so are to either suppress enemies (best done with a light machine gun) or to try and get CQB points to unlock new weapons.

A-Team Firing / int_73b74949	comment	In Borderlands: Multiple: In the first game, Borderlands, at least two unique guns have a 0.0 accuracy rating, meaning that the process of using one involves pulling the trigger and, if used beyond point-blank range, praying fervently to your weapons deity of choice that any of your resulting shots hit a target. Both are shotguns and boss weapons besides, meaning you will definitely see them in use against you, and that being shot by them is probably not what's bound to kill you: Sledge's Shotgun Gaige's Anarchy skill from Borderlands 2. It increases your damage at the cost of your accuracy. Up to -700% accuracy without using a specific item. If you do have said item, at around -900% accuracy the bullets stop being ridiculously inaccurate and start being impossibly inaccurate. They'll take sharp turns in mid-air, zig-zag, land behind you... Anything you hit will be either by pure luck or sheer weight of numbers, but anything you hit will also die. Gaige herself comments on this. Several guns have accuracy ratings so low that firing them anywhere other than point blank with them is little more than a loud, entertaining waste of ammo. A Gunzerker who brings out dual Bandit Spiniguns will eventually start spraying large volumes of ammunition with only a relatively minor chance of actually killing anyone. And if you're playing as Gaige, here's some advice - use Jakobs Coach Guns or Vladof assault rifles. The former has massive recoil and gigantic damage, the latter has massive fire rates and therefore, not very good accuracy.

A-Team Firing / int_755b343f	comment	Halo: The Assault Rifle, particularly its original incarnation. That said, when it was re-introduced in Halo 3, it became considerably more accurate. While Halo: Reach further improved its accuracy even more, it also added the so-called "bloom" mechanic; weapons quickly become rather inaccurate if you keep spraying instead of using controlled bursts. While bloom indeed has a negative effect on spraying, the AR's massive bullet magnetism (a function of the game's aim assist that directs bullets towards the target if your aim is off) made players who preferred single-shot and burst-fire weapons loathe the AR. This short video demonstrates exactly why the AR was loathed that muchExplanationIt takes exactly 16 rounds from the assault rifle to kill an opponent. In the first attempt (full-auto fire), more than half of the 32-rounds magazine miss and the opponent survived. In the second attempt (burst-fire), a total of 22 rounds were fired and the opponent dropped dead after 20 rounds (the last two-rounds burst was fired when the opponent was already dead). This means that the AR's massive bullet magnetism turned 16 of the 20 rounds fired into hits even though the outside of the reticle barely touched the opponent. Subsequent games have managed to fine-tune the AR's accuracy while simultaneously toning down on its bullet magnetism. The Submachine Gun originated as the Assault Rifle's Halo 2 replacement and managed to be even more inaccurate, since the barrel would climb if you fired it on full-auto (even more if you were firing two of them at once, which was especially bad since it was designed to be used two at once and thus pretty terrible on its own). However, it eventually evolved into a semi-precision weapon; Halo 3: ODST's version was actually the first automatic weapon in the series to come with a scope! The Scorpion in Combat Evolved had a ridiculously large reticle, meaning that the co-axial machine gun was ludicrously inaccurate even at medium range. Depending on the game, even the main cannon had a ridiculously wide spread for what it did. Depending on the game, the Needler may have trouble hitting non-close-range targets despite its homing capabilities, due to how relatively slow its projectiles travel.

A-Team Firing / int_75c31694	comment	The A-Team made this famous, with heroes and villains both firing ridiculous amounts of bullets at the climax of almost every episode, to practically no effect. This was due to focusing on a team of heavily-armed mercenaries using realistic firearms against similarly-armed foes, but was aimed largely at a younger audience and dealing with broadcast TV standards, meaning they couldn't actually shoot people. They hit lots of glass windows, car tires, radiators, and other such things. They just never hit any people. In many cases it's intentional: the A-Team isn't shooting to kill, but to lure the enemy into a non-lethal trap, or to divert their attention. (Cracked speculated on "the hundreds of bystanders they likely gunned down with their hail of stray bullets.") At least one episode ("Say It with Bullets") saw the team set up an elaborate ruse by making their antagonist Col. Decker believe they were hiding in the guest house on an Army base; the team had rigged a stereo system to play, by remote control, a sound-effects record where one of the tracks was machine gun fire. When Decker is tipped and brings his convoy to the guest house to call the team out, Hannibal cues the stereo, making the soldiers think they are being fired upon... and they return fire, heavily damaging the house. When nobody is found inside, Decker blows his stack, realizing that tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition had been wasted as part of a game played for Hannibal's amusement. They were also pretty good at hitting those amazing exploding bushes which inevitably caused a jeep or car to flip over, without injuring the occupants. Subverted in the show itself, in that the times where characters did get shot on-screen, Face and Murdock in different episodes, though they got better, only a single bullet is fired each time. B.A. also took one in the leg once, although it happened off-screen, and it was a friendly-fire incident.

Jules interprets this unlikely scenario as divine intervention, and decides to give up the life of a gangster and walk the Earth. Divine indeed: the two bullet holes over the shoulders are just coincidental. As for one bullet hole that suggests a shoulder hit and another that suggests a punctured lung, these can't be explained by science. It doesn't help that if you look closely during earlier scenes, you can see the bullet holes are in the wall before the gunman starts shooting.

A-Team Firing / int_817b1a43	comment	Played straight in Time Crisis and Crisis Zone with the standard enemies. In Time Crisis, they're all armed with handguns (a world-threatening terrorist organization that gives almost all of its members handguns. Riiiiiiight) and will miss almost every single shot, very rarely firing one that hits the player and often landing them more than two feet away. Crisis Zone has an even worse problem in that they're armed with assault rifles, and yet fully-automatic fire at point blank range has a very low chance of hitting. Averted with some enemies using machine guns in Time Crisis, as well as the shots that will hit the player in Crisis Zone. The Time Crisis games have machine gun-wielding enemies that will miss dozens of shots, but then hit perfectly with dozens more. The same is done in Crisis Zone when the enemies finally get their act together, going from several bursts going over your head to five rounds hitting perfectly in a row. Some boss enemies will never miss their bursts, requiring you to duck until they stop aiming at you. In two-player installments, if only one player is playing, the unused player character will be shown attacking and hiding...yet every shot will miss.

A-Team Firing / int_99c003af	comment	Several episodes of The Boondocks showcased this. It should be noted that at least one Spear Carrier level character has been shot in scenes that would otherwise be pure examples of the trope. Example: Two pissed-off Black guys take semiautomatic guns, point it at each other (one is directly against the cheek, the other directly up the nose) and fire for about three seconds, completely missing. Even when they were looking away while firing in sheer terror, something should have connected, unless they jerked the guns totally out of the way. Of course, it was used to demonstrate the idiocy of pulling out a weapon over nothing, and then unfairness (or prudence?) when a pair of cops plug them despite their having made up. Example two: Ed Wuncler and Gin Rummy with semi-automatic assault rifles versus three Middle Eastern store owners with handheld automatics. None of the gunmen are hit, Huey and Riley took cover and are apparently OK, and the one policeman? He got hit, but he was OK because of his body armor. In fact, he managed to stand up and get shot again - and survived that, too. Another amusing example of this was the Gangstalicious episode, where Riley discovered his hero was not only not gangsta, but also gay. Gangstalicious' jilted ex-lover and his crew tried to execute a naked, tied-up 'Licious, only to empty their guns from six feet away and miss. The Latino banger in the group lamented, "Man... we suck." In the same episode, Gangstalicious and his rival E-Dirt get into an argument in a club. They pull out their guns and... each of them proceeds to accidentally shoot himself.

Everyone else is brought in unharmed.

Conversely, certain Elite Mooks will instantly spike the danger meter, especially on Hard difficulty. The player's weapons shoot like a blind man in a hurricane at full-auto and when moving, even with auto-targeting, so it's best to use semi-auto or bursts.

A-Team Firing / int_bcb32dc6	comment	In the second, third, and fourth editions of Shadowrun (as well as the first edition if optional rules from a later expansion were used), the more bullets you fired, the less likely you were to hit with any of them. This was because the number of bullets fired was added to the target number for the attack, and only one roll was made to see if that attack as a whole hit. Thus, firing a single round might have a target number of 4, while firing a ten-round burst would increase that target number to 14, and if you didn't beat that 14, all your ten rounds would miss. The reason for firing more than one round was that the damage caused would increase per round, so if you did hit with a ten-round burst you pretty much guaranteed instant death with most weapons. Fourth Edition also had the potential to avert it, since there were a large number of recoil-reducing weapon mods that could be added to a gun, in addition for rules to reduce recoil based on the shooter's strength. This meant that a particularly strong troll could potentially fire a heavy machine gun at full auto with the accuracy of a sniper rifle.

Ironically (and/or realistically), Orks subvert the trope by compensating for their terrible marksmanship with use of heavy weapons or a large amount of firepower (or preferably large amounts of heavy weapons, if they have the resources for it). While machine guns or things that go boom can compensate for a glaringly bad marksman much of the time, a humble bow or carbine is a much more formidable weapon when wielded by every member of an infantry horde who can focus firepower.

You can kick out an absurd amount of ammo, and watch as maybe a tenth of them hit a target.

In "The Caves of Androzani", the Doctor runs through a long mudfield with little cover except for a few hills, while about a gazillion rounds are fired at him by the pursuing gang of mercenaries, and still manages to escape relatively unscathed- so long as you ignore the terminal case of spectrox toxaemia.. There was also a lampshaded defiance of this trope in the more recent episode, "A Town Called Mercy", in which the Doctor questions the skill of a gunslinger who only hit the target's hat, only to be informed that it was deliberate. Later there was a justified example, in which said gunslinger somehow managed to shoot much faster than usual, blowing up the town's clock, several windows, a street lamp, and much more besides, without even coming close to the Doctor he was on his knees and flailing his weaponized arm in all directions due to the Doctor overloading him though, so YMMV on whether or not it actually counts as this trope.

A-Team Firing / int_c4a1d59e	comment	In general, the Call of Duty-inspired trend of forcing the player to aim with ironsights for any semblance of accuracy leads to the effect that not aiming while firing somehow makes bullets veer off at sharp angles away from where the gun is actually aiming. Sniper rifles have generally been like this for even longer, mostly as a balancing measure because of their extreme power and long-range accuracy, which in some extreme cases can have bullets exiting the barrel at close to ninety-degree angles. Call of Duty's success also ensures that all dumb-fire rocket-propelled grenades in games released since are incapable of hitting their target unless the shooter is close enough to kill himself with the explosion, simply because dumb-fire rocket-propelled grenades in Call of Duty were similarly inaccurate. This is discussed by Sergeant Foley during the tutorial for Modern Warfare 2, where he admonishes the Afghan militia for just randomly firing from the hip and never hitting anything.

This is accurate for the time period depicted; it was very difficult to hit one ship from another with any sort of unguided weapon when both ships were moving, maneuvering, pitching, and rolling on the open sea, a problem that wasn't solved until the invention of guided munitions in the 1940s and '50s.

A-Team Firing / int_dbd793bc	comment	In d20 Modern, automatic weapons get the shaft. Two feats are required in order to properly use an automatic weapon, one for proficiency with guns, the other to not suffer a penalty when firing full-auto. And even if you have those feats, you target a 10-by-10 area with an AC of 10, to make the opponents have to make a DC 15 reflex save (fixed, with no way to modify) to take no damage; you use 10-rounds to attempt to hit at most 4 halfling-sized enemies with 1 bullet each. A third feat is required for you to be able to burst-fire, which is actually not useless. Without that third feat, you can target a single target with auto-fire, but it is a senseless waste of ammo because only 1 round (of the 10 fired) can hit. Some guns even have a 3-round burst mode, but if you don't "know" how to burst-fire, then tough luck, you can't use that mode (you can, but much like auto-fire against a single opponent, it's a waste of ammo). To summarize: Without building your character to fully use automatic weapons, you will quickly get to the point where you can't do anything but spray-and-pray with automatic fire.

A-Team Firing / int_ea3902af	comment	Full Spectrum Warrior uses the suppressive fire tactical variation, given its roots as a military simulation. The game often required you to order your soldiers (individually, or as an entire four-man squad) to lay down suppressive fire on any enemies in a given direction in order to advance; any enemies in that direction will be forced to remain behind cover and will not return fire while being suppressed. While suppressive fire might, on rare occasions, score a hit on an enemy, this was typically so your other soldiers could safely advance, flank, and shoot the enemy with a more precise volley without being shot at themselves. This was counter-balanced by the fact that suppressive fire burned your ammo quickly, and you could only resupply at specific points on the map. In contrast, you can also order your soldiers (again, individuals or entire squads) to engage in much more accurate point fire, which would typically kill any enemy that isn't behind cover.

A-Team Firing / int_f1414a2b	comment	Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines: "Bullets fired: 999. Human casualties: 0." Echoing a scene in Terminator 2: Judgment Day, where John orders the Terminator to not kill anyone. Which leads to a scene where the Terminator fights off a small army of police with a Minigun, firing thousands of rounds and killing no one. The Terminator could have easily killed quite a few people, but he deliberately aimed to miss.

When Hank Marlow and Gunpei Ikari parachute onto Skull Island after their planes are shot down, Marlow unloads all the bullets in his gun at Gunpei (at a distance), and every single bullet misses its human target. Gunpei in turn fires his gun's only bullet at Hank while chasing him, but misses.

A-Team Firing / int_f8df4747	comment	The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye: Swerve is a comically bad shot. He's only scored three direct hits in the entire run of the comic. Two were accidental headshots on the ship's psychologist and himself (both of them got better). He manages to miss the broad side of one of the largest Transformers shown thus far at point-blank range. He blames his lack of accuracy on the fact that he's quite small for a Transformer and most guns are made for someone larger. His accuracy does improve a bit after Brainstorm builds a gun specially crafted for him. On the Decepticon side of things, there's Misfire, who can basically be summed up as "Like Swerve, but worse in every way." He's killed more Decepticons by accident than he has Autobots on purpose. Apparently when he's called upon to actually try to use a gun properly, he's very, very bad at it.

A-Team Firing / int_fb9c177d	comment	For all that they're programmed and trained war robots who've been through millennia of combat, the Transformers seem to have an awfully hard time hitting anything; particularly the Decepticons, especially considering that not only are they the military bots and should have the better hardware and accuracy but also that their leader (Megatron) transformed into a gun himself. Granted, they're a bit better than the cast of G.I. Joe in that they can actually aim at all, but still. Check out this fan video to see a glorious Lampshade Hanging on the use of the trope in Transformers. It uses nearly every single clip of Shockwave firing his laser at the Autobots. In the latter half of the G1 two-parter "Dinobot Island", the Decepticons not only succeed in hitting the Autobots but essentially pin them all to the ground with a sustained round of gunfire. Apparently they just had their guns set to "tickle fight"... at least, until the movie. During the aforementioned movie, the Decepticons succeed in overrunning an Autobot ship filled with cast members from the previous series and are able to land dead-shot bulls-eyes on their opponents in what seems like mere seconds. Given that there are 20 years between the previous season of the cartoon and the movie, this would logically seem to suggest that after millions of years of war on their home planet... it took landing on a foreign planet to learn how to aim. This has been somewhat improved upon in recent years over the varying versions of the franchise, often through using robot parts. Transformers: Energon, though, had copious amounts of laser-dakka getting sprayed all over the place to no effect. Subverted in Beast Wars: Rhinox was so obviously aiming high that even the other Maximals (who are at best very very guilty of this) could spot he was aiming high, whereupon the delicate application of dakka caused a significant chunk of cliff dropped on the Predacons' heads.

Averted with the other games. Conversely, Nazis wielding MP 40's have improbable accuracy even when blind-firing, while you're reduced to spray & pray or using it at close range.
