Thanks, let's see if it has enough bandwidth for a highlight.
No scoped and retextured PKM? me dissapointed. I gather the current model is still vanilla. Otherwise very cool stuff for the Russians.

I don't think scopes are issued to Russian troops. The zoom is just on the current one for balance purposes (would be a tad unfair if the US got the scoped SAW but the Russians had to stick with irons)

A non scoped PKM with a zoom is just stupid. If you're going to have a zoom, better have a scope to explain it. I think it's still the most glaring deficiency in the Russian forces faction, more so than the vanilla SVD.

The current Russian PKM is actually a placeholder for a Pecheneg. With a scope.

Yeah,PKM with zoom is stupid =)
Actually,we no have PKM+Scope in army,but have some PKP,they can be have optics!
In real life soldiers ho have optics on AKs and have old PKMs!Mostly optical sights how in VDV,but it's not so many that in PR!
Just Russian army have tactics of heavy fire,where all soldiers just shoot at nme side.
But this tactics not work in PR(For example 1 fireteam in RA is 10 infantrymans),thats why optics allowed for every man!
Anyway - Mashinegunners have PKM or PKP(They can be have scope),Automatic riflemans have RPK,RPK74,RPK74M(M version only can be have scope like on AK)

I think it would be nice if the Russian faction could have a scoped RPK74M. It would be a very nice weapon.

Hey, chill out, we have what we have. As already said, the PKM with zoom is a balance placeholder for the Pecheneg with scope that is coming, but didn't get ready in time. You should measure your words in a better way in the future before calling stuff stupid. Don't you think we know it's not realistic?
Even after all these contributions and development, showing all the amazing work done for the next release, some people just focus on the negative stuff or stuff that is missing. So annoying...

Speaking of which, why isn't the RPK-74M in game yet? Or for that matter, will we ever see it for the Russians?

Question about the RPG bi-pod
Do you still need to wait the usual 5-15 seconds before firing?

I personally hope not. One of the reasons the Pecheneg was developed was to supplement or completely replace the RPK-74's poor firepower. They haven't made drums for them, and the 45-round magazine doesn't do it justice. It could be a good rifle though, like how I use the RPK as Insurgents. I can't wait for that Pecheneg though. And about the Automatic Rifleman and Machinegunner samogon was talking about, are you guys (the DEVs) discussing making Automatic Rifleman and Machinegunner different kits?

Lets say there is a chance for it to happen "Problem" here is how to fit it into game, with current kit loadouts etc. So wait and see what future brings
