I had high hopes for the RPK as it's the LMG variant of one of XDefiant's strongest assault rifles, the AK-47, but just how good is it? / itemp2 / itempp
what i’d recommend is start with BASE SENSITIVITY in the range. when you find a spot where you can place the dot on your screen on targets and track while moving and also high enough to turn and react. from there change your ads sense and don’t forget your dead zone can make the exact same sensitivity feel more or less responsive if you want to keep a speed but compensate for human error(over or under compensation via sticks or mouse)
LOL I am 51 and find the game fun and not too tough. Usually top 3-4 in the lobby but sometimes less. Hang in there, know it is not COD and change up the style a little.
Watching your gameplay just reinforces the fact that I need to boot camp my recoil control and walk/sprint control. Annoying because I had these skills 20 years ago and lost them somewhere along the way
Very nice gameplay! That 5 second respawn countdown on escort is driving me nuts every time. But it's great to see that I'm not the only one spamming square button knowing it doesn't change anything 😂
I've had really great success with this gun even against smgs. I didn't pay it much attention at first but it's been my go to these last couple of days.
Not only Xdefiant feels like the old days, but now I watch gameplays of it like the old days and try to learn from it like the old days. I'm loving the feeling. Only sad part is I can't play the game like the old cods, because the game is blocked here in Iran and the ping goes through the roof with a VPN. So my learnings cannot really be put to the test since everybody teleports all over the place.
I look forward to your xdefiant videos everyday aorry rich i love you but i stopped watching apex a long time ago but when i do its always your videos but please keep these coming on this channel your so entertaining.. much love
You can mod is fully for sprint to shoot and speed and its still a laser they will probably change it but you can do it with most guns right now i have a couple where the accuracy says its all the way down but they are still lasers in game
I love hoe when I play everyone is faster than lightning but when I watch videos people are always completely unaware and moving in slow motion. Guess playing with 70 ping and 65 FPS isn't that great after all 👀
I just played 4 matches in a row with everyone bunny hopping, skill spamming, and absolutely melting everyone. The exact sweaty crap I don't want. I feel ya.
@@sh4dowz247I am starting to the think the whole „no SBMM“ thing was a lie lmfao. I was dominating every lobby for the first 25 lvls, straight 3.5 KD - now all of a sudden everyone is bunny hopping & strafing with 107% accuracy and I’m struggling to break a 2 KDR. What is happening lmao
The difficulty with escort or zone control is, it is a crap shoot on what type of teammates you get or who you play against. If your teammates suck, good luck getting the first zone or to the first zone against a decent team.
No, I bet I went to the RBK right away as soon as I locked it cause I like LFG so maybe I hadn’t got the feel for this game but as soon as I started trying to unlock mine, which is what I’m doing now just burning through guns, unlocking all the mods and I’m on the MX and since I switch to that MX if you look at your profile, you can see your performance for the last 10 games you’re your skill assessment. Mine went up nearly 20% since I switched and started exclusively using down 60 damn 60 is the beast or just figured out the style which is to keep my distance and try to take all my fights at range if somebody gets close switch to 93 hour Spam bullets unless they catch me off guard but generally, I’m trying to stay at range. I’m free firing around corners in 88 and crossing the corner free firing and I get so many multi kills now. I have a good match. It’s mostly multi kill and I treasure when I go around the corner, I’m shooting at somebody I keep shooting even once they die and then their buddy runs right in the line of fire and dies and and so on and so bored, LG are underrated in this game. I think mostly because it’s you know those young high hand eye coordination, good eyesight good reaction team guy they want building for speed and SMG or assault rifle and pretty popping around the maps. Well you know they try hard and be honest they’re still always going to come out on top, but those can turn out mediocre player up a notch now if I could just get my KD above one
I love the content, but man, watching your videos also makes me mad cause I'm so terrible at video games now, lol. I used to be pretty damn good in the Halo Reach days, but I moved to the boonies in Louisiana and had no internet for 3 years. Now, after moving and having internet for a decade again, I still haven't recovered.
Gun do really impact your movement speed when you’re sharing an LG any OMG you’re just that much slower than you would be with it’s all rifle. Do you have to modify your style?
@TheRazoric the rpd is basically a belt fed 47 that fires the 7.62 round so lmg's exist in both calibers. But yeah, high speed small caliber bullets are devastating on soft targets. Speed kills.
Webinar type so I guess MG and combination with assault rifles like AK-47 and LG like our PK 74 they have a different purpose and they do each have different capabilities in the game. All of them are effective. They gave him going to be able to clean the SMG clock at range and it’s going to have better range and I believe they are big gay is five shot kill at any range versus the AK-47 being last I mean you got a quarters ling I’ll be range weapon and a range weapon. You can’t compare and you have different uses my style sometimes I’m old and slow as fuck and I can’t see for shit is to stay far away as possible fuck it up close and personal with other players. I’m almost always trying to lose that guy gunfight that that dual whatever that exchange so I need to stay away and I’ve been using 60 lately and range I can stay at range. I can get like 234 in fact I cleared all the one guy on a team the other day. Call it been a few seconds I mean literally 5 x 5 five and then nine from one to the next. I also cleared off the 10 headshot challenge with that game recoil recoil right but in order and demonstrate recall, you got a shirt 20 to 30 bullets so that you can see a good good tanner, the time to kill the web is like one of the sniper right your dog sniper to put on the automatic weapon. It’s like from three bullets up to about five or six bullets. Max recall doesn’t matter if you had the first couple shots I was gonna have you start in the body the recalls going to the left or the right depending on the gun, but it’s not going to deviate. Call and the first five or six bullets to have any of that down the gunfight. The only thing you’re going to get out of it is if you start in the body, you’re going to walk the gun up to the head and bam and her dad I mean, that’s my experience with the long range specially because obviously geometry, you know… The little bit of recoil that you’re seeing is way more significant than that range so You just a game don’t worry about what you’re shooting with the LG and the gun walk right up to headshot and they’re dead before the recall gets so vicious that it matters what you try to play you’re gonna lose out because no matter what you put on the gun, you cannot get the ADS speed you cannot get the 880 walking speed. I mean, you can put the mods on but no matter how your mom are gonna walkstray as fast as an assault rifle or SMG just like a rival straight as fast as an SMG straight as fast as either of them so you can’t try to beat in that arena
Bro, I think this gun is absolutely broken I unlocked it a few days ago and it is absolutely nuts.. I literally have a video scheduled tommorow about the same gun 💀
Gosh Rich you make the game so easy. I'm 43 now and just feel like I suck now after being pretty good at COD back in the day.
I'm 26 myself but my old man said the same thing lol
I'm 59 and I feel the same way...I started military FPS games back in COD 2 and I've definitely lost my step
Well people back in the day used to be worse and people where not as competitive now everyone want to be a streamer or is trying to keep up with them

Yup totally agree. I feel the same. Haven't really played cod since ww2 and I really feel like I suck now. Rich makes it look so easy.
I had to pretty much start over too I took like a 5 year break from arcade shooters after I quit cod first week was rough but now I’m right back
Feeling this hard man. Lol I work hard just to stay an average skill gamer it feels like.
Heard that. I used to slay on the OG modern warfare and now I might as well cut my thumbs off.
Same. My instinct is still there. It just feels sluggish. Gotta do some drills or something till it feels normal again.
Loving the XDefiant videos Rich, keep them coming :) Also would love to see what settings you play like sens and controller settings
Loving the Xdefiant content ! Keep it up. Haven’t missed a video so far
Very nice gameplay! That 5 second respawn countdown on escort is driving me nuts every time. But it's great to see that I'm not the only one spamming square button knowing it doesn't change anything 😂

Loving your videos, do a ACR video too whenever possible.
Can you do a settings video please?
I’m not going to lie but the saw is one of the best lmg in the game
I’ve just been using the lmgs since launch lol, i got the m60 and the saw gold, the saw is really good
You can mod is fully for sprint to shoot and speed and its still a laser they will probably change it but you can do it with most guns right now i have a couple where the accuracy says its all the way down but they are still lasers in game
Is there a gun this man can’t use. I had the best game of my life last night and that was still only 36 and 20. Loving the content my man
I love hoe when I play everyone is faster than lightning but when I watch videos people are always completely unaware and moving in slow motion.

@@sh4dowz247crazy how you have to buy a 200 dollar controller just to compete against bunny hoppers. Cannot wait till they nerf It to the ground

@@rekaarnes no sbmm doesnt mean you always get into games with noobs you know this right?
@@TheUcHiHaMaD yeah, no shit? Like I said, I kept a 3.5 KDR for 25 levels straight, now >>every
Hit box on the fire guy is busted - 100% agree. Especially when sniping I’ll land shots on everyone else but fire guy doesn’t even reg half the time
The difficulty with escort or zone control is, it is a crap shoot on what type of teammates you get or who you play against. If your teammates suck, good luck getting the first zone or to the first zone against a decent team.
I always go for the objective but I get teammates who avoid the capture zone like it's the plague

You can make 99% of weapon loadouts work if you focus on aim and strafing.
Games like that last game is why I don’t play shooters on my own and haven’t since Black Ops 3.
All smgs are superior in this game. Rpk supposed to hit hard but the fire rate slow so smgs can get there 6 out before rpk can get it's 4 out
if u can group and then go to the package it becomes eazy goingg one by one is pretty hard
Hey Rich, I heard some people really enjoy turning on Aim Acceleration
This is the most fun gun if you can build it well
Would you try classes? I have a class I would like you to try
I love the content, but man, watching your videos also makes me mad cause I'm so terrible at video games now, lol. I used to be pretty damn good in the Halo Reach days, but I moved to the boonies in Louisiana and had no internet for 3 years.

Build?
What’s your sensitivity?
saying "thank god they're sniping" is so disrespectful lol
I fly home today and first thing I gonna do is download this game lmao
If it wasn't for fire bullet kills my .7 K/D would only be a .5
🔥🔥🔥
Gun do really impact your movement speed when you’re sharing an LG any OMG you’re just that much slower than you would be with it’s all rifle. Do you have to modify your style?
RPK is best for occupy and escort imo.
Wait until you discover the M60, it kills faster than most assault rifles with short medium range four shot… 😅
RPK is a variant of the AK-74, not 47. They fire two different calibers
It is so funny how the LMG has the smaller caliber xD
@TheRazoric the rpd is basically a belt fed 47 that fires the 7.62 round so lmg's exist in both calibers. But yeah, high speed small caliber bullets are devastating on soft targets. Speed kills.
@@etizzle915 Tarkov made me learn all of this shit xD
@TheRazoric the autism that game requires is off the charts lol
@etizzle915 I do not suffer, I just have it xD
Guy's I turn 30. Do I count as old Gamer as well?
Bruh you make me want to use every gun lol. Ill never get to max on anything haha
Crushing loss, ouch
