SCAR-L vs. MP7 vs. F2000

[TLancaster]

I haven't had much experience with the MP7, the SCAR-L, or the F2000 and I'd like some opinion on how the weapons handle. My friends play the game quite a bit and we're in the process of trying to set up a four person squad. We mainly play on city maps with Karkand being our favorite. So far, they've naturally chosen the following roles (with some variation depending on the situation):

1 Anti-Tank
1 Support
1 Medic

I'm still trying to decide whether or not to go with Special Forces or Engineer (or even Assault for flashbangs) and would like an opinion on how the weapons stack up against each other.

Engineer (Shotgun/MP7):
Can repair damaged vehicles and commander objects, can lay AT mines to halt an enemy tank (without having to sit around with your finger on the damn detonate button only to get gunned down by infantry)

Special Forces(SCAR-L):
Can destroy enemy vehicles and strategic objects with C4.

Assault(F2000):
Can use flashbangs and the noobtube. Wears kevlar.

So here are my questions:
1) Which kit do you think can fill out this squad best?
2) Which weapon is "better" (and in what roles/situations), the MP7 or the SCAR-L?
3) Do you like cheese?

Thanks for your help!

Re: SCAR-L vs. MP7 vs. F2000

Assault, especially with the F2000, dominates Karkand. The only class with a chance to beat SF Assault on Karkand is a MEC Medic going for revives.

If you want a three person squad, go triple Assault.

Re: SCAR-L vs. MP7 vs. F2000

If you can work well with your squad and with the flashbangs the the assault is unstoppable, however using flashbangs solo isn't easy. You generally die.

However the FN2000 is nice and accuracte, hits fairly hard, and has a noobtoob stuck on it. As loath as I am to suggest it, get the FN2000.

Of the two weapons I prefer the Engineers original 12guage pump shotgun, not the Jackhammer, nor the MP7.

The Scar L just isn't worth it IMHO. I kill people easier on single fire and full auto with the M4. The G36C has unzoomed burst fire going for it. The Scar strikes me as useless.

The F2000 is mediocre at best, but the benefit of that unlock is the flashbangs. The gun itself isn't anything special. Weaker than the AKs and G3, less accurate than the M16. I personally think the MP7 is a very worthwhile unlock, if for no other reason than it gives the engineer a long-range alternative to the pistol, and its accuracy is good and the damage isn't terrible either.

Re: SCAR-L vs. MP7 vs. F2000

Okay, so the squad would look like the following (all people having full upgrades):

1 Assault
1 Anti-Tank
1 Medic
1 Support

If we were to add one more person, which would be a better addition: Special Forces or Engineer?

Re: SCAR-L vs. MP7 vs. F2000

The f2000 is not that great. Flashbangs are the only worthwhile thing in that kit.

As much as I hate the gun I would have to say the F2000.

F2000, I don't use it much but it does a **** load of damage. Especially on wake Island, I was going for that airport flag (China main base). Got there, and killed 3 people trying to kill me easy with that thing, No GL.

It comes with flash bangs and a GL too. Its like the spec ops unlock for vanilla but has more.

Mp7 sounds awesome, its pretty good but if you run out of ammo which you do, your screwed.

Scar-L isn't bad either, like the original spec ops gun but more damage. Not bad gun.

#1. F2000
#2. Scar

Re: SCAR-L vs. MP7 vs. F2000

F2000 all the way. Since I unlocked this, its the only stuff I use!

Re: SCAR-L vs. MP7 vs. F2000

personally I have found the f2000 to not be that accurate. I have better chances of hitting something with the AK, but I might just not know how to use the scope very well. One thing i have noticed though is the GL on the F2000...it may just be me but the other ones are just easier to aim...I'm pretty good at hitting guys at range with the GL, but this one seems to fall short so I have to aim higher than I normally do

Re: SCAR-L vs. MP7 vs. F2000

the f2000 is good with gl and fb but the scarL is ....weirdly accurate and powerful...i just fired a few bursts into a firefight and got a few kills...

I remember killing a good player with Mp7 (he had f2000)

Re: SCAR-L vs. MP7 vs. F2000

Yeah as I said its sweet until you run out of the 20 you have. If you miss him, hes got you.

Re: SCAR-L vs. MP7 vs. F2000

Well here's the deal. the FN2000 is a superb rifle in my opinion. I have the impression that a lot of people think it's inaccurate due to the scope's crosshair. The center is clear, so sometimes for those long distance shots it's difficult to know where the exact center is, and when a pixel matters, you can miss. But for close in fights and medium ranges, this thing can be a potent weapon. To me, it's like the G3 with 10 more rounds, and with a grenade launcher. I dont tend to, as they put it, "noob toob" much, but a grenade is a smart choice when entering a room. Launch a grenade in, then get the full-auto capability to take out people inside the room. If you're out in the open, prone and set it to single shot, and you'll find that it's powerful enough to kill your enemies with two shots to the chest.

As for the grenade launcher's accuracy, I noticed it shoots on a flatter arc than the M203, so those used to the M203 should aim a bit lower.

SCAR-L is not one I've used more than once, but my friends love it.

MP7 to me seems just like the Bizon and MP5, with more damage. Your call though.

Oh and as for flashbangs, they're useful, but I find myself using a regular grenade more often than those.
