This is probably my favorite Assault Rifle. I don't know. They're a lot of beast guns in this game. I don't even have a favorite since all guns behave differently.
In MW2, weapons tend to bear big similarities to other weapons, so much that a few differences are relied upon to completely differentiate the weaponry . The SCAR-H is pretty comparable to the TAR-21 and AK-47. Both of those Assault Rifles fire faster than the SCAR-H, have more ammo and reload quicker, but are much less accurate than the SCAR-H, and may not fare as well with the Red Dot Sight attachment, since the TAR-21 has a custom Red Dot Sight that the user may not like, and the AK-47 gets additional idle sway when using a Red Dot Sight. I compared the TAR-21 and the AK-47 to the SCAR-H since all three assault rifles are fully automatic and do the exact same damage over the same range.
@@weakestlink20 Yeah, this is why I like the Tar. I play a little more aggressively, and it is arguably the best primary weapon for close-medium range fights.
miss the old days back with mw2 ! i still think it was the best call of duty ever made an that is why i dont play call of duty anymore... rip call of duty
+AJ Alexander excitingly mw2 and WaW are on the backwards compability list for Xbox one so there's a huge chance for them to be playable on the Xbox one
But, the hackers will still be there. Their accounts will have hacks, and it will never change. They just need to remaster it, 1080p HD, no hacks, no mods, more maps, etc. I have it on ps3, there are modders, but all they do is change the color of the names (mw2). On Xbox, hackers and modders galore. I had it in early 2013, none at all. Replayed it 3 months later, nukes every game via noclip and god mode. KNIFE NUKES! like bruh..
This is my favorite assault rifle in the game, and I've noticed it's pretty popular among people who want to take the standard assault rifle approach, moving throughout the map, taking out targets as they're encountered. Give it ext mag, pair it with a usp 45 w/ ext mag, scavenger, stopping power, steady aim, frag, stun, martyrdom, and you're looking at the perfect assault class :] The underbarrel shotgun is a nice attachment, but not enough damage to 1 shot kill unless you're playing hardcore.
Hearing someone know the difference between an assault rifle and a battle rifle made me extremely happy. Thank you for shaming everyone who can't be bothered to learn that distinction.
@TheJeRoMeWWE A UMP-45 would be a much more sensible choice for close range engagements. If you want to hamper yourself with a sniper rifle and call it 'quick-scoping', that's fine by me. Do it for clips, do it for a challenge, but if you're doing it in an attempt to win the game you qualify as an idiot in my book :)
They're a bit on the thicc side, though. Must be heavy to wield IRL, especially knowing it uses 20-30 rounds of 7.62 NATO, which are pretty big bullets.
@XResidentXEvilX5X Damage loss as a result of the shorter effective range may make middle-ranged targets behind walls more difficult to kill. But penetration ability remains the same otherwise.
I still play MW2 and am still trying to get all titles and emblems legit. Have mastered all primary weapons, got 1000 kills with about half of primary weapons, and 500 kills with every weapon other than AT4-HS and Javelin. Such a good game!
mw2 was a nice game, but the community was so rude and underage (people were mostly 12-18 years, in a game for 18+) that after 200+ hours I just stopped playing, since I wasn´t having fun anymore. The annoying constant underage swearing and the crazy amount of hackers (nuke at the beginning of the round was getting common lateron) was unbearable for me switched to mount and blade:warband and it felt like a blessing, since it was the exact counterpart :D
@@wingsofdivorce7606 console has way more hackers than pc. Ascend to the master race, you won't miss a thing. To be honest my Xbox is now just a Halo machine.
This is the best gun in MW2 IMO. The only drawback is the smaller clip size than the ACR. However, it has higher firepower and great iron sights so if you're decent you will rape everyone. If 2 players who are equal in every way go head to head, one with a SCAR and an ACR, the SCAR player will win almost every time. SCAR silenced, scavenger, stopping power, ninja, akimbo G18s is the most rapey loadout I ever played. I almost always went at least 3:1.
One reason why is that it's real life counterpart fires the full sized 7.62x51mm NATO. Thus, the round is bigger, so you can't fit 30 rounds into a normal Stanag magazine. The SCAR-L fires 5.56x45mm NATO, so you can fit 30 rounds in the magazine.
A 20-Round is a standard for the Scar-H, that's what its package comes with, extended would be, 30, 40, and 50(50 Being a drum, In real life not this game)
@LifEMembers Plus it was the Scar H CARBINE, which means it's modified for close quarters. From wikipedia: A carbine is a longarm similar to but shorter than a rifle or musket. Many carbines are shortened versions of full rifles firing the same ammunition at a lower velocity due to a shorter barrel length. The smaller size and lighter weight of carbines makes them easier to handle in close-quarter combat situations such as urban or jungle warfare, or when deploying from military vehicles
A flaw i've worked out with this gun is that with the 20 round magazine it also has the longest reload of any assault rifle in the game and apart from some LMGs and shotguns not many guns in the entire game have a longer reload than the SCAR-H and I also find that slight of hand barley effects the reload time.
I have all the attachments for the SCAR-H, and I would say the best attachment would either be FMJ or the Red Dot Sight. Extended Mags is all right, but FMJ and RDS are more useful. FMJ works extremely well with the SCAR because of the high damage, so it doesn't take too many bullets to kill someone behind cover. The RDS is probably the best attachment because it helps the SCAR-H out were at acquiring targets at longer ranges, where the SCAR-H wins. I see the SCAR as a high damage ACR.
oh and a heavy barrel doesnt make the gun shoot slower. but it speeds up the travel thus making the trajectory more straight, but the bullet travel faster doesnt necessarily make its more powerful, but it will give it better penetration
@MegaGamerRO Sniper- Barrett Assault long range: M16 Assault mid range: ACR Assault close range: Scar H SMG: UMP 45 Shotgun: SPAS 12 Pistol: M93 Raffica its hard to say exatcly but i would have to say M16 and FAMAS theyre both very powerful and accurate...
I hope when a good cod comes out, I really hope that ahoy will make another one of these weapon guides I'm so excited. And damn what a good combo would that be.
The first multiplayer game play that ever came out for mw2 multiplayer trailer was the scar 💕 remember watching that video over and over drooling. Next day putting down $10 at GameStop to preorder.
@TheTeaBiskit Stopping Power gives a 40 percent damage boost to your weapon. In details, this means if your weapons damage is 40-30 (like the SCAR-H) with Stopping Power, it will become 56-42, So at close-to mid range, it will kill in just two shots. But, it is good to know, Stopping Power has no effects on explosive weapons, and the Juggernaut perk in CoD4, entirely cancells its effect. I think this perk is less usefull at high powerred weapons, but it suits you very well at low damage ones.
@lolfish646 That's because the MW2 version is the SCAR-Heavy, the bigger of the two. the BFBC version is the SCAR-Light, which isn't necessarily an SMG, but a light assault rifle.
the good thing with silencer however, is the fact that you can use the perk bling which you can then use the red dot sight with the silencer which makes a powerful weapon.
@xXMrGamePlayerXx the SCAR-H is issued with 20 round standard magazines due to the weight and size of the larger .308 cartidges, though 30 round magazines for it are still available from after-manufacturers.
Of all of the Call of Duty games, this gun has my favorite iron sights. They're just so awesome. It's almost a crime to use the RDS or ACOG on this.
I would always run silencer on mine, who needs red dot anyway?
@@muffin7483 i use holographic sight.
Like there is no attachements that garantee you an edge so
FMJ gives a more tangible benefit than the holo. Extended mags is also nice since it starts with a smaller mag, pretty much its only weakness.
@@brainwasher9876 i dont find myself fighting against people who use cover so i pass on fmj

It still has negatives and positives in Black Ops 2. High recoil, for one, and a poor fire rate among fully automatic weaponry.

This is by far my favorite gun in mw2
These guides are just too good, I'm subbed :D
The SCAR-H is in the Engineer class because it is the Close Quarters Combat (CQC) varient of the rifle, with a shorter barrel and a tactical railing.
High damage,low recoil,works perfectly with ACOG and well with thermal.
this gun made this game for me. Such a good gun, this is why I rate mw2 higher than black ops 1, I have not tried all guns on black ops 2 yet.
The iron sights on the SCAR are perfection, but the red dot sight is very helpful.
I noticed you've replaced the thumbnails of the MW2 weapon guides. I have to say, the new thumbnails look very professional.
A flaw i've worked out with this gun is that with the 20 round magazine it also has the longest reload of any assault rifle in the game and apart from some LMGs and shotguns not many guns in the entire game have a longer reload than the SCAR-H and I also find that slight of hand barley effects the reload time.

FMJ + Extended Mags = Killer Setup.
@TheTeaBiskit Stopping Power gives a 40 percent damage boost to your weapon. In details, this means if your weapons damage is 40-30 (like the SCAR-H) with Stopping Power, it will become 56-42, So at close-to mid range, it will kill in just two shots. But, it is good to know, Stopping Power has no effects on explosive weapons, and the Juggernaut perk in CoD4, entirely cancells its effect. I think this perk is less usefull at high powerred weapons, but it suits you very well at low damage ones.
I love the way he says Scavenger PROo at 4:54

the good thing with silencer however, is the fact that you can use the perk bling which you can then use the red dot sight with the silencer which makes a powerful weapon.
Yeah but with bling you can't have scavenger

the SCAR-H is issued with 20 round standard magazines due to the weight and size of the larger .308 cartidges, though 30 round magazines for it are still available from after-manufacturers.
driftors vid explains it rarely hits its "long range." in fact, it has the same effective ranges as the LSAT or HAMR.
