Source review — 10 November 2026: This is an original-game loadout from the dated guide below. Accessible source pages confirm the listed weapon attachment names. Perks and equipment retain their original dated attribution; the source review does not imply hands-on testing or a fresh balance-patch analysis.
The RPK is a dependable all-round LMG, rated B-tier in gamer.org's July 2026 list. It holds 40 rounds, but its long reload is the thing most worth fixing. Dual Mag does that, and on hXc Hector's list the RPK is the only LMG that can take it. This covers the original 2010 game as hXc documents it.
Best RPK loadout
No major guide publishes a build for this gun, so this is our suggested setup from its available attachments. Per-gun attachments come from hXc Hector alone (page timestamp 14 July 2022). Video Games Blogger's 18 November 2010 LMG list does not show Dual Mag, so this pick rests on hXc.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Attachment | Dual Mag | Halves every other reload and adds one extra magazine to your starting ammo |
| Tier 2 perk | Sleight of Hand | Reloads in half the time; Pro adds faster aiming down sights |
Why this build works
hXc gives the RPK a 3.5-5.3 second reload, a long wait in a fight. Stacking Dual Mag with Sleight of Hand attacks that from two sides. He also lists an estimated 40 damage per bullet at 750 RPM, with no range figure. Its other magazine option, the Drum Mag, doubles capacity to 80 rounds if you would rather reload less often than reload faster.
How to play it
Use it at medium to long range, as hXc advises for LMGs, and remember that the class moves at 87.5% speed, so getting to your position early matters. LMGs have high penetration in his guide, which makes the Hardened perk a real option when you expect enemies behind cover.
Unlock notes
Unlocks at level 6 for C2000, plus C1000 for Dual Mag. Sleight of Hand costs C2000, and Pro C3000 after three challenges, per hXc Hector.
