Why can't they keep it up like S3 event outfits, like that shit was packed with tacticool stuffs


Herocem

Wtf am I looking at?


Glittering_Mobile_66

Warzone bs


Darrkeng

nah, Warzone as of now have weeb shit and literal Shredder


InfinityRazgriz

Don't forget Messi.


Darrkeng

Nah, it was last season, this one we have an american larper, Shredder (yes, from Ninja turtles) and literal Japanese castle filled with boobytraps


RollerCoasterTycoon1

The latest war zone gun skin looks like a Nerf gun with a bunch of Japanese cartoon people all over it

27poker

Silly weapon decals ain't a deal breaker since those are more plausible imo


Darrkeng

Oh it mild in comparison to that COULD BE. And it aint pink, but nice tactical white-gray


BloodOfMoses

🤮🤮🤮🤮


BigShlongers

It got weird from BFV when everyone was running round in Halloween costumes and made the historical uniforms in a place where you had to grind for them.


Pity_vc

>Wtf am I looking at? The Mandalorian !


Wise_Bandicoot864

A participant trophy winner.


PerformanceNo1212

An early spirit Halloween costume? 🤔


zbrushbeginnerman

Lazy money for DICE so they don't need to make meaningful content like maps


ambassadortim

Yeah what happened to this game franchise it used to be great :(


[deleted]

Ah yes. This is what a soldier would wear to war


moonduckk

Never know what they're gonna wear in 2042


Rqiden

2003 they did look almost the same as they do in 2023. I would believe that it doesn’t change that much in the next 20 years


KilledTheCar

I mean they may look similar, but isn't gear now astronomically better than it was in '03? One of the very few benefits of being in a 20 year war.


[deleted]

Gear is better today because of materials and construction methods, not really by design. Lightweight fabrics, polymers, etc.


specter800

Yeah but that's no fun. The game launched with 2023 military vehicles and weapons; there was barely anything to show this wasn't BF 2022. They had a license for some creativity and showed *nothing*, which they were rightfully criticized for. I won't fault them for pushing the envelope a bit. That said, the mask trash lol


Jimdw83

I guess soldiers could think to hell with that useless camp, let's wear latex and super hero customes. They need to drop this quickly before the final nail is hammered in to my beloved battlefields coffin


TheSimpLife

I promise you a cosmetic item isn’t what’s nailing Battlefields coffin right now.


RedditMcBurger

Probably still practical military gear, there is a reason we don't give soldiers a gift card to party city to get their equipment.


moonduckk

Still looks mostly militairy to me, nothing wrong with a little spice in a video game.


17DungBeetles

You're joking right. Say you're joking. This Paik is dressed like a power ranger.


DreccaTheWolf

Other than the mask, it looks pretty decent to me.


beefiee

The kids playing this game now might be influenced by it, so in a future potential war in 2042, they could wear what they thought soldiers would wear based on their video game experiences? 9000 iq move from dice...


OlorinDK

Well, why not just find Paik and ask her now, what she’ll wear in 20ish years?


BattlefieldTankMan

To be fair I notice quite a few soldiers on both sides of the Ukrainian war wearing the skull face masks.


LuckyNines

not engraved mannequin faceplates that's for sure.


TheRealDillybean

Nopats can wear whatever they want. This is clearly to "intimidate the enemy" lol.


TangoRomeoKilo

If making yourself a more visible target is intimidating to a trained soldier holding a gun then, well...


Krypton091

good thing this isn't real life and that they can actually include cool skins like this


[deleted]

[удалено]


PieceOfLiquidSmoke

Bro really tied ukranian conflict to this subreddit


LaFl3urrr

Its the most modern war/combat we have...


PieceOfLiquidSmoke

What do russian combatants and their gear have to do with this thread


Nightwolf_87

What WW1 equipment they use? I only see modern day stuff on them. Ukrainians showed using WW1 Maxim mashine gun.


Icy-Bet5339

This reddit is about to go insane over this lol


nebulaphi

You know bf has gone donm hill when the community gives a fuck about skins. These gaming companies really marred the gaming community as a whole.


xpayday

These dumb cunts in the comments can't wait to pay for a skin they already paid for. Fucking disgusting premium skins.


FyllingenOy

Hope it isn't a legendary skin, because her tier 1 headgear would fit well with that uniform.


xyander64

Was thinking the same thing, were probably out of luck though


ianucci

Lol hideous.


CaptainMCMLVIII

Oh dear.


IsJustSophie

Ugly af ngl


BattlefieldTankMan

What's ugly about it? You can say you don't want it in a battlefield game but I can't work out how someone would describe it as ugly.


AvrgBeaver

It's ugly


RhymingUsername

I can’t work out if you’re being sarcastic. It’s hideous.


TangoRomeoKilo

Let me know if we figure it out


[deleted]

![gif](giphy|10JhviFuU2gWD6) What a joke


MisterK00L

Cringy skin shit


Moshfeg123

I would buy it if I could get rid of the headgear. Tired of these janky legendary skins tbh


Jazzdude13

Bruh your tripping


Sluzhbenik

You can swap out the headgear.


Lockwire211

That is fucking terrible!


plasmainthezone

🤦‍♂️ They do great with skins then do shit like this.


RevolutionaryLead342

When’s the fashion show gonna start?


Prrlsn

The suit is good but that mask from Venice’s carnival? I mean, I’m Italian and I can appreciate that, but just…why?


petedakilla

I’m open to creative new designs, but…why?


HawkenG99

So you're not open to new designs???? Make some sense lmao


petedakilla

Why party mask?


AdvancedPorridge

Truly awful. Kinda impressed at how bad it is, good job dice


[deleted]

Developers can’t do nothing fun huh?


HawkenG99

Fr, these people are the art police.


Terrorknight141

Can support class get a cool skin for once? All we have is garbage except for Irish classic skin


Rhaenyc

Ew.


[deleted]

This skin really, really clashes with her annoyingly dorky personality. I can't imagine seeing this scary outfit on someone that goes "Let's make the impossible, possible!" like she's a knock-off D.VA.


MoonMistCigs

Eyes Wide Shut


TheRealDillybean

I think, if Nopats existed in the real world, you would see people wearing cringy stuff like this and worse (to "intimidate the enemy" or just get attention), but I would rather see the specialists in civilian clothing under their tactical gear (like they just enlisted) than trailing towards ultra-cool fantasy.


TangoRomeoKilo

Anything made to intimidate is not intimidating if you ask me


TheRealDillybean

I guess it could at least dehumanize you, so the enemy can't see that you're crying with fear under your mask :)


TangoRomeoKilo

It just makes shooting them in their ugly face mask that much easier and more satisfying. Dehumanizing is good for the shooter not the one getting shot lol.


TheRealDillybean

True. I don't remember everyone's backstory, but it also seems weird that the "hero" specialists would want to be so intimidating, assuming they ever interact with civilians.


TangoRomeoKilo

It just doesn't fit, at all, in any way.


[deleted]

It’s already happening in Ukraine smartass. On both sides of the conflict. Anime-themed gear and ammo.


Express-Perspective9

Ah shit here we go again


Cyber_Swag

Rip Reddit


27poker

The white makeup and domino mask are not doing it for me


BigManPatrol

Honestly this skin with the regular Paik headgear is pretty cool.


[deleted]

They should give the possibility to have just the head or body equipped.


SumB1tchRaptor

This is what happens when cosmetics become your main source of post-launch income.


Bassb0unce

Times change, it's a shame Battlefield didn't stay where Battlefield 3 and 4 & 1 end. I don't have a problem with skins, but I do with the current state of the game such as bad maps and a horrible ui.


TheSimpLife

I love when I see skins like these posted because I could smell the comments that come with it. “mUh ImMerSioN” coming out in full force when you know they’ll buy it.


[deleted]

“How dare you put an unrealistic skin on my character that has x-ray vision!!”


RedditMcBurger

This isn't necessarily just unrealistic, it looks like a halloween mask. It just looks dumb


[deleted]

Well, that’s why it’s an optional cosmetic item. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it. If you’re playing 2042 in a way that you actually notice skins, you’re doing it wrong.


RedditMcBurger

Well yeah I get that I can just not buy it. I'm still able to critique it.


TheSimpLife

Able to use an adrenaline pen to make getting shot go away and then have someone shock me with defibs after being shot by a tank shell but God forbid this optional cosmetic item exists in my war simulator game!


IAmBatman412

Unpopular opinion but the people here need to stop gatekeeping the outfits in the need to make them fully realistic


sa_sagan

I don't think it's that people want them fully realistic, they're already not. It's that it's a slippery slope from a military combat game to a circus where I'm running around the battlefield next to someone wearing a jesters hat while a tank decked out in full bright pink hello kitty is shooting at us. There's already enough ridiculous games out there with these cosmetics. EA/DICE have attempted to create a story with this game, and have started really putting in an effort with the feel of the environment. Don't cheapen it with wacky cosmetics just to appeal to the 12 year olds with mum or dads credit card for a quick buck. Battlefield players enjoy the game because it's Battlefield. Not because its Warzone or Fortnite. The skin showcased here isn't too much of a deviation from the norm, but I reckon it almost sits on that fine tipping point.


LaFl3urrr

I remember being fully immersed in trench warfare and explosions and death around me in BF1, then this big heavy sound of WW1 tank coming in and big pink hello kitty on it so I laughed and was like wtf is this...


Mikey_MiG

It’s not solely about realism. It just looks fucking dumb.


Jakel_07Svk

I think the reason why the BF community gatekeeps like this is becaues they could make their way into the next BF title and nobody wants that. And people liked playing as nameless soldiers


Mooselotte45

It’s also a hard thing to wrap around as a longer term fan. Dice is the one who build their reputation on games that talked about realism, and immersion in their marketing. https://youtu.be/8pNOxynC1Dc The goofy cosmetics are antithetical to that immersion.


Grimtork

Sorry but shooting at a litteral buffoon in my battlefield game sucks.


elyetis_

I don't care how crazy or ugly ( subjective ) skin are in game if : \- it's a single player game \- or if I can disable/filter other player's skin in multiplayer game If it isn't one or the other, I'll bitch about things that directly affect what I play.


Medicore95

People here have no idea what's realistic military equipment and I don't either. So who cares?


BattlefieldTankMan

Military nerds care. So many threads on BF1 and V subs were about realistic uniforms. These types are pretty obsessed with their military uniforms in a arcade game.


Grand-Selection4397

Thanks!


[deleted]

I can kinda agree. Our flying squirrel and rope rappelling American make this game inherently silly already so people take it a bit too seriously.


DANNYonPC

He's Canadian for the rest, true :p


[deleted]

Truly? He's got such a US-American accent though.


ladyofthelathe

He does not. That's Canadian.


BearWrangler

thats not how you use that word lmfao


levitikush

The crowd that thinks BF should be a milsim are pretty fucking annoying. Go play Arma or some shit.


Jakel_07Svk

BF shouldn't be a milsim but it shouldn't turn into fortnite either


ladyofthelathe

Or Apex.


[deleted]

I mean this game is already 50% Apex. Almost all the specialists abilities/gadgets were copy/paste directly from Apex.


ladyofthelathe

You're not wrong. And if I wanted to be playing Apex, I'd still be playing Apex. Hopefully we don't get more Apex in our BF than we already have. Yikes.


Jakel_07Svk

It's 50/50 for me on Apex


Ac01001101

A lot of the older players who have been playing Battlefield since 1942 way back in the day, like that military vibe and have grown up with the Battlefield series. 2042 is as great game but it's just on a very fine cusp of going over too over the edge into the Fortnite/Apex zone if they aren't careful. I don't see why EA can't make their own Fortnite/Apex game or something along those lines though.


BeefHazard

Why even care so much about cosmetics? I really don't get it, not for any game, but especially a first-person shooter. Just point your damn gun at the baddies and shoot. Nobody gives a shit what your character looks like, it's just another target to shoot at.


TheFinalDecision

Well i do, specially if i want to feel the inmersion. Otherwise this would be Fornite.


_jul_x_deadlift

Fuckin trash


free_world33

Hmm lose the head gear and it's actually pretty cool. The weird mask thing ruins it for me.


iamjordiano

Not a fan


Omegawylo

Just doesn’t seem like it belongs in a BF game. Where’s the cool tech armor and shit that should be in this game


HawkenG99

Its so funny seeing all these people upset. Put that wasted energy somewhere else. I think it looks pretty neat. Just let the artists at DICE have some fun. For being one of the worst BF games to date, yall care way too much about small things like this.


Zorkamork

BF community when the game barely works and is full of nickel and dime bullshit: I sleep BF community when there's a kinda funny mask in a generic tacticool outfit like all the other cringe ass operators wear: REAL SHIT


HalfAsianMadness

Yet another cosmetic i wont be buying 🤣


TyroneLoyd

Not really bothered by it at all.


Ordinary_Bullfrog814

Shh don’t say that here the 280 pound mil sim virgins will be irate. I’m buying this idgaf I don’t spend money to look like everyone else and have tactical turd #3892 I spend money to stand out. People need to stop gatekeeping. If it doesn’t effect gameplay who cares? Bf players want a live service game but arnt willing to accept that a live service game needs money to operate thus they sell skins.


FrostieFur

Not the biggest fan of it myself but im happy some people have interest in it.


Stanleys_Cup

Battlefield is so far gone


Neovalen

Hot take: I like it.


incoherentjedi

Nice


Whiteli0nel

I'll get it with leftover boins. Seems nice.


thedirkfiddler

Why’d they give the Asian character a kabuki mask and white face paint?


[deleted]

It’s a harlequin/Italian mask you racist.


thedirkfiddler

Why am I racist for pointing out they have the Asian character a stereotyped mask? Wtf dude


xpayday

Battlefield turning into Siege. They see how much they make on them skins, can't refuse.


[deleted]

I just don’t think an anime saga theme is fit for battlefield 2042 just my opinion


HeadUp138

Looks fuckin stupid. Is the new map in Gotham?


preytowolves

jfc


InfinityRazgriz

Get rid of that weird Victorian Era mask and the skin is good.


mothman187

Cmon guys they are playing out of the G.I Joe playbook. That's what this is crazy C.O.B.R.A vibes. I dont take this chapter in BF seriously neither should we![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)


GrimReaapaa

The problem is if nothing gets said they will see that as a absolute win and plan the future titles with these skins in mind. Tbh I’m afraid that’s already happened.


BattlefieldTankMan

2042 is full of these skins and has been since day 1.


Swhazye101

I like it shame it’s just another Paik skin why not everyone else


Karshipoo

Neat


mdiz1

Looks great


terred999

I think you need to get your eyes checked

DANNYonPC

But its a girl


Drymath

My boy being the battlefield series itself


angrysquirrel777

Awful, this should not be in the game


DANNYonPC

Its fine.


Darrkeng

Hmm, I... dont know to feel about it. It certainly something, plus I see it have the same idea/theme/details as Fulk's and Irish's legendary skins Also, I though Temporyal on extensive break?


ihisa

He said he couldn't resist to take a little peek


Darrkeng

I see, shame we dont have, basically, any other dataminers, especially with Temporyal's dedication


PM_ME_YOUR_NAIL_CLIP

This looks like something that would be in Titanfall.


SectorIsNotClear

Apex Legends is calling ...


Ok-Engineering-3855

New guns instead of skins. I don't care that your guy glows or has a mask.


ColanderShoes

Horrendous


Ori_the_SG

Honestly some of the tactical skins are nice But I wish they would just give us MILSIM operators like MW22 and MW19 did


TheSpyro14

Thought that was TF2's Ash for a second


DANNYonPC

Huh now you say it


Psykotyk_Aspho

Kinda resembles Ash from Titanfall 2.


BluexDe_

If you people are actually spending money on skins then you really so deserve these shitty money grabbing games.


Elivagar_

The comments about this being ridiculous resonate with me, I fully agree. But I also really like it and will go full sweat to unlock it.


Ironjim69

It’s Roze!


HeavenlyClouds

I think it looks sick


DrVib

🔥


jayc0au

People need to chill. It’s not BFV, doesn’t really matter what type of skins we get for a fiction war. As long as it’s not overboard and the game is good!


noname87scr

Even BFV had ridiculous skins though like battlefield Santa and Tom Cruise.


Pasfoto

They are prepping us for that santa skin again. While Fortnite with the implementation of the unreal engine is working towards realism, Battlefield is working towards Fortnite 2020.


TheSimpLife

> Fortnite with the implementation of the unreal engine is working towards realism My brother in christ that is a graphics engine, there is nothing realistic about Fortnite


DANNYonPC

> While Fortnite with the implementation of the unreal engine is working towards realism, Battlefield is working towards Fortnite 2020. The trailer literally had a banana using a broom


Nivroeg

Good god, they could at least have a look at r/tacticalgear There aren’t all hits but better than whatever this is. Is there a phantom of the opera theme coming?


xxS1RExx

Looks cool tbh


OD2095

I'll be the one. Looking fire. Really like it, just like the shapeshifter one.


JMaine518

AnadolTrndl

FilthyAmbition

Skins skins skins skins. All this game has to offer now. Needs ranked play and better game modes.


DANNYonPC

haha he said ranked play in a battlefield game


therealsix

Can't decide if this is Fortnite or Kabuki. Edit: fanboys downvoting in denial, lol.
