I googled this first before I posted so I wouldn't flood the forums but I couldn't find a article so I am asking how can you improve railgun accuracy. My accuracy for rail currently is around 20 percent.

Only click when the enemy is behind your crosshair.
Have a nice FALL!

There's aren't many 'get good quick' tips for this game. Just practice.

2 simple tricks that anyone can use and that probably can be found on google:
- Don't flick shot. Just put the crosshair on a place the enemy will go to then shoot when he is at it.
- Use zoom (it's on the menus and in google. Don't have to create a new thread for everything). Personally I use the space bar (jump with mouse2), with that command that disables the animation (google), 45 zoomfov, hold it when I want to rail (it is not always 45 fov with railgun but just when I want to).
Those 2 tips should increase your rail acc. by 10%.

Not that I can give many tips as I am stuck at 20% with you.
People also say that cg_railstyle 2 (the Quake 2 style spiral) gives a more accurate rail beam location that cg_railstyle 1.
Play vs the hardest difficulty bots. I normally get around 40% on CA with them, but i normally flee when i'm getting ambushed and shoot from a distance. Find a good crosshair that works for you, perhaps? I flick. My overall says 29% rail gun, but i think it's more like 20-22, as i normally get that ingame.
Does railing bots actually increase your accuracy in online when you play?
No. offline does not count toward your stats.
I don't agree with the above...tips. a good flick rail is an acquired art form and can be deadly. And zoom can get you killed if used a lot. It has it's time though.

Online is a better place, but it's to help train your RG. Cat has a youtube video of RG training i think? You wont be come a 40-50% RG playing bots, though. Try out Instagib servers if they become avail aswell.
