AK47 vs M16 vs SCAR

[Vietmeme War Veteran]

Besdies rates of fire and magazine sizes which one is the best out of the 3 in you guys opinions. I usually go M16 and occasionally pick up the AK. Dont really use the SCAR much

AK always for me if its avalible.

One thing the SCAR has going for it is stamina. 3 burst+high mag count means less reloads and overall less ammo usage. Whenever i have an m16 i seem to rip through ammo lol

AK sweeps every rifle with laser sight, it has identical recoil during standing and crouching.

Another pros:

- Good accuracy while crouching (Non-laser),

- Can stun Witch,

- Slow firerate (Can be held for a longer time without replenishing ammo),

- And of course high damage

My second choice is M16.

AK47 is far superior than the M16 and SCAR in the right hands.

The AK47 is a nice weapon, low accuracy but if you can control the recoil, it's a beast and until recently was my most used weapon but it's taken a back seat to the MSR.

I played Counter-Strike for one and half decade and this game isn't CS lol. You dont need to super control the AK's recoil at all and it'll still hit single Jockey/Smoker and Horde at 100++m away 80% of the time with fully automatic shot on Highest Difficulty .. even every weapon accuracy feels so identical in L4D, except when you run and gun. Beginners that previously ever played any modern FPS for at least 50hours would easily use L4D's AK.

I like to say the recoil on this game does not escalate like cs:go, it goes until certain point, its very predictable, easy to control..
Thats why i think ak is best.

AK47 is a tank killer so i always pick it over the other rifles.

damage > accuracy, all day any day

On realism, i'd say m16 for headshot, but for other difficulties ak is the best, though i think m16 has some pierce which helps a lot in corridor horde attacks.

Ak is the best because you don't run out of ammo easily, its very efficient tank killing gun, it takes out commons with ease. M16 isn't much better while mobile for killing anything.

Scar isn't quite on par with those two guns. Its definitely worse gun. Slow reload is the biggest reason imo. Scar is kinda mix of AR and sniper, but doesn't do either job as well as AR or sniper. If scar had scope, i would say its good, or fastest reload, but as it is, its worst AR.

Now, its still fun to mix them up and use whatever you feel like, unless you play versus. Hell, i purposely use smg or mac if i found good mod i like, or even use tier 1 shotguns for fun, though if things start going bad i use better guns.

ak47 with laser

Ak47 when tank. M16 good middle ground, scarl when lots of big open areas

This is proves my point. Because scar has no scope (which i really think it should have), its not better than AK or m16. If you're in open areas, why not simply take sniper? One hit kill for commons, great piercing and ability to use scope to kill anything far away.

Hell, even ak and m16 are just as good in open area, just crouch and you can shoot just as far as with scar. Both of those guns are also better in close range, and snipers as well.

Scar is not properly balance, it needs a scope or similar fine aiming as sg552, or as good piercing as snipers. As it is, its like tier 1.5 gun.

Scar has long loading time and higher accuracy than m16 so I kinda see it as an assault rifle / sniper rifle hybrid or middle ground thingy. I rarely use ak47 because its so inaccurate so its only for closer range most of the time.

[Breastie]

I grab whatever gun comes across next unless there is grenade launcher, I will find it. I prefer m16 and scar the most. Most usually saves the team from situations where everyone is all around the place. Then I like to use auto shotties for panic situations, and my favorite secondary is either magnum or machete.

[Breastie]

Ie. You may see the pump shotgun as my favorite tier 1 weapon, but really that is one of my least liked weapons. I like shotguns over the smg's but I would go for the chrome shotgun, despite I don't think they have any functional differences, but director usually offers the pump shotgun instead.

AK-47 inaccurate? What? Sure, if you're trying to hit a zig-zagging Jockey at 600m away & firing full-auto.

it is in comparison. but its more than accurate enough, and thats all you need eh

the best assult rifle in my opinion is the laser sighted scilenced uzi.

thanks too its high fire rate it can make better damage per second then everything exept the ak47 and the shotguns.

i rate it better then the ak47 because its got a shorter reload time so you dont waste as much time reloading when your teammates need to be rescued

also if you use it well enough the server admins might think "wow, theres no way i can get wrecked by such a tiny gun", assume your cheating and ban you.

its a huge compliment,

I think the accuracy for AK47 in this game is great.

It's very different compared to say.. CS:GO...
