RPK-74M needs tweaking
Overall RPK-74M is a great looking weapon and i am really glad it's in BF2042. After using it for some time, it would seems that this weapon needs a bit more tweaking. My rough estimate of reload s...

@EA_Leeuwhey, one more thing to add. It's a minor nitpick for animation department, the 60 rounds magazine is very bulky, alone it barely fits in person's hand. With mag retention animations, no way you can hold two of them at the same time and perform a reload. It would make more sense it animation would be like take out magazine, move it out of camera view and then just put it back in.
Here is an example of real life, it's very bulky:

The feedback has been passed on, @Foxfort. Unfortunately, that's all that we can do via the forums.
Well now. Today's update was underwhelming for RPK-74M.
Laser sight is still not aligned.
Champion muzzle break uses wrong model, maybe even same values ?
Reload retention / tactical animation is still way waster than emergency / empty mag reload.
Either bullets are too weak or it has too strong bloom, RPK really feels weak. More like a weapon for diehard fans than competitive LMG.

- @Foxfort Honestly pre 5.2, the RPK absolutely wrecked ppl and here's why: low recoil, good working bipod, suppressor that worked, and decent optics. I feel like overall it's just worse now. They took away the suppressor all together while the AK24 and aks 74u still gets on. They're all AK platform and probably same caliber round
