Is the G36E really overpowered?

ok, me and a friend tested this out to see the overpowered-ness of the G36E. i was wearing full gass mask, IBH, and heavy vest and the AK-47 took 3 hits in the chest to kill me, the G36E took 4 hits, the M4A1 took 5. i dont see the G36E as overpowered or the Ak-47 as overpowered. i see the ak-47 as being misrepresented though.

The ak-47 leaves really bad bruises on the people who shoot it because the recoil is is so heavy. it fires a 7.62x39mm large bore bullet. compared to the standard 5.56x45mm NATO round that is used by i think every other AR in the game.

overall the g36 is a really great rifle(along with every other gun that heckler & kock have made) and its recoil tech is in its on kind, the barrel and firing mechanism are not attached to the stock, or trigger. when fired most of the recoil is distributed throughout the front half of the gun, which is much easy to handle.

The ak is no where near as accurate IRL as it is in game. in game you can out snipe a sniper with the AK47. no way.

well tired of typing so ima get in game now.

I agree with the whole idea of the AK-47's accuracy. It's terrible -.- I shoot them in real life, and they truly are a real "Spray-n'-pray" kind of gun.

The Russians probably have an AK-47 philosphy for firing it, that goes like this: "Fire in the general direction of the enemy. You'll hit something sooner or later."

The G36e is good too. The G36e, AK-47, M4A1, SCAR, and L96A1 are my favorite weapons in-game, as most of the Combat Arms fanbase can agree =P.

AK-74 beaches. if my windows movie maker would work i'd show you guys how i pwn face.

I absolutely loathe the sound of the AK-74u, it is quite possibly the most annoying sound I have ever heard, with the exception of Crank That of course.

So random! But so funny!

...Indeed. NOW GET BACK ON TOPIC!

I noticed something that might make the G36E qualify as not over-powered:
On most of the guns, when not using a scope, the first 3-4 shots are fairly accurate, and group like you would think they should. On the G36E, only the first 1-2 are accurate. I'm sure everyone else that has ever used the gun has noticed, but I decided to put in words.
