The Dual Rocket-Propelled Grenade Launchers, also known as the Dual RPG and the Twin RPG,[1] is a purchasable weapon for the Soldier in the Battle Mode of Half-Life 2: Survivor, available for 150,000 SG. It was added to the game in the 2.05 update,[2] which was released on December 17, 2008.[3]

Overview[edit]

Consisting of two Rocket-Propelled Grenade Launchers held in each hand, the Dual RPGs provide the possibility to launch up to two rockets in quick succession before reloading. The primary attack fires a single rocket, whereas the secondary attack launches both rocket launchers. The secondary attack will still work if one of the rocket launchers is empty, but it will only launch a rocket from the one that is loaded. The Dual RPGs also have a higher ammo carry capacity, allowing a player to have up to 16 rockets, while the regular RPG in Survivor only allows for 7.

On the downside, the Dual RPGs lack the laser guide and deal only 65 points of damage per rocket, which is 10 points less than the regular RPG in Survivor.

Trivia[edit]

  • The Dual RPGs do not use the same rockets as the regular RPG: they are painted in different color (blue instead of orange) and produce darker smoke trails.
  • As with all other explosives, the Dual RPGs deal damage to both enemies and teammates.
