So as regular Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 players may know by now that a new patch was released a few days ago which changed quite a few things gameplay wise. A few guns including the FAL, MSMC and PDW were nerfed hard while others like the Type 25 and Scar-H were buffed. After playing around with the new Scar-H for a few hours I can say that it’s much better than the launch period Scar-H.
When the game came out everybody ignored the Scar-H because of it’s high recoil and slow fire rate even though the weapon was very popular in Modern Warfare 2 as well as Modern Warfare 3 (although MW3 featured the Scar-L variant). So the last two patches have definitely changed that Scar-H for good and it’s now one of the best guns in the game.
The patch released at the end of January reduced idle sway for all the Assault Rifles as well as increasing the 3 hit kill range for the gun, now only at long range would the Scar require 4 shots to kill which was standard for all Assault Rifles. Well the March patch one up’ed that and now that Scar-H is a 3 hit kill at any distance, only the SMR and FAL have more damage now but they’re primarily single shot weapons.
