RPD is a controllable 7.62 light machine gun. The RPD fires 7.62 yet holds surprisingly steady: the vertical is strong but predictable, without sharp jumps.
Recoil character
The RPD fires 7.62 yet holds surprisingly steady: the vertical is strong but predictable, without sharp jumps. Vertical recoil is what you compensate; horizontal spread, timing and the decision to fire stay with you.
Setting it up in PUBG URC
Compensation is high but even — the RPD responds well to a carefully tuned value. Compensation is calculated from your sensitivity, accounts for stance (standing, crouching, prone) and is set separately for each scope — it is not a fixed macro.
Scopes
The RPD takes the red dot, 2x, 3x, 4x and 6x. The higher the magnification, the more visible the climb — the 6x value is larger than the red dot. Keep the values consistent so switching scopes doesn't throw off your hand.
Tip
A good LMG from regular loot when an M249 or MG3 hasn't turned up.
