Zarqwa Hydroelectric Strategies

Avoid Passing Through the Middle Wooden Path

Modern Warfare 2 - Zarqwa Hydroeletric Wooden

Running through the wooden path in the middle of the map will leave you vulnerable to enemy fire from different angles. As an alternative, you can pass through either the destroyed building or the tower to avoid being exposed to a lot of enemies.

Use the Waterways to Sneak Around

Modern Warfare 2 - Zarqwa Hydroelectric Waterways

The waterways found at the edges of the map are swimmable and can be used to sneak behind enemies to launch a surprise attack!

Take note that this will leave you exposed and vulnerable to gunshots. In addition, swimming will affect your aim and recoil so it might be best to stay undetected by staying underwater until you reach the surface.

Linger Around the Second Floor of the Control Point Building

The Control Point area is a two story building that houses the B Site area in Search and Destroy located across the information booth. The second floor is a good defensive position as you have vision over the first floor of the building.

You can stay at the stairwell to fight any enemies attacking the site and then reposition to the outside balcony where you can drop down to the first floor of the building to launch a surprise attack on unsuspecting opponents.

Setup a Defensive Perimeter at the Generator Building

Modern Warfare 2 - Zarqwa Hydroelectric Generator Building

There is a second floor balcony at the Generator Building with a clear line of sight of Target A while playing the Search and Destroy game mode. You can setup claymores by the door and the barrels nearby to prevent anyone from entering.

This building is flexible to use across all game modes as this is an excellent position to camp as you will only need to worry about two key entry points which are easy to defend.

Recommended Gun Loadouts

Primary Secondary
Kastov 762 X13 Auto
Analysis
Kastov 762 is recommended as this map is best played aggressively as you'll be passing by numerous areas that are lacking cover. Having the X13 Auto as a backup weapon is a good alternative as the automated pistol provides opportunites for aggressive plays as well.
