Now... many people will say that the FAL is definitely not better than the other guns, but I will disagree. With the extended mags attachment, I have been able to kill 3 people before they can even get a shot on me. The sights are just beautiful on this gun, and paired with practically no recoil, you get a very powerful and fun gun to use. The damage is extremely high, so you only need 3 shots at most for targets that are very far away. Up close, you only need 2 shots. I went 20-2 on Crisis (Ground War) with the FAL, where I usually go negative with a gun like the Famas or AK74u. I only had 1 kill with a killstreak, so I think the FAL is QUITE a strong choice, don't you guys think?

I went 30-3 with the FAL (when I first unlocked it), but I don't think it's OP'ed... I think.

Yeah I have over 500 kills with the FAL and a 3+ kdr on it. In my opinion it's definitely one of the best guns if not THE best, I have yet to try extended mags though

The FAL does have more recoil though for long distance. Also its semi-automatic so its harder to keep on your target while shooting, most don't like this and prefer fully autos. This makes it balanced in my opinion.

Not overpowered especially since I doubt just anyone can pick it up and beast with it. Give yourself credit. Sadly no matterhow deadly it is I rarely if ever see it used

Pretty much sums up my thoughts. The FAL is not in any way overpowered, IMHO.

Once again, the FAL makes one of my worst games into a very good one! On WMD Ground War, I usually stick with the L96, but I wasn't getting any kills, so I switched to the Famas and got a few kills. But then I literally died 6 times in a row. I switched to the FAL, and I got a Napalm Strike within a minute. Other assault rifles just cannot compete with the high damage that the FAL has, along with the low recoil. You guys should really try it out!


TIP: Don't shoot too fast. Go for accuracy rather than speed! Winky Winky
