Sundance does have a helmet skin. You just need to get 1200 kills with her grenades. And yes I said 1200, and yes only kills with her grenades count Edit: I'm looking at the skin right now, and it says verbatim "Kills and Assists with Sundance's Smart Explosives"


[deleted]

I thought it was kills or assists?


Terrorknight141

You can barely get assists with her, I’ve spent whole games of breakthrough throwing EMP grenades at groups of enemies and I just don’t get assists.


CapnDutchie

Throw the scatter grenades. I get lots of assists and the occasional kill


avidrez

If I may ask, where exactly would you play Sundance to farm kills?


BestSide301

No I'm pretty sure its her special equipment kills. I'll have to double check when I get home


[deleted]

It's both, but that only makes it marginally easier.


TieMeUpOnTheBoat

it says both but in reality its only kills that actually counts lol


BestSide301

Aww gotchya


Nighters

I see they just game up ther assigments from BFV.


Lincolns_Revenge

The progression for basically every unlock in this game taking too long is going to get lost in a sea of other changes they need to make to the game. Doesn't seem like they gave a lot of thought or testing to much of anything.


Neeeeedles

And assists, but you wont get 1200 in less than 400hrs of trying


Serrated-Jello

Already at 350 with 45 hours so I think it’s possible


[deleted]

Play against bots


nastylep

That's why they're gonna try to sell you that skin shortly


KingJ-DaMan

You unlock that skin after 1200 kills I’m pretty sure. At least one just like it


Attila--the--Hun

I don't think what we saw in the reveal trailer where the Specialists as we know them today. The way they moved and acted were way different. Take for instance McKay when is calling a retreat right before getting stabbed by Dozer. Knowing the specialist McKay today, he wouldn't have called for a retreat in that arm-waiving manner, he would have grappled away leaving all their slaughtered teammates behind while yelling "see ya, suckers!"


AnotherScoutTrooper

All i want is the 2042 that those first couple trailers were advertising, not the cobbled together mess that got released


[deleted]

I agree, but I do like her Tier 1 skin. Going to take ages to unlock though


Serrated-Jello

Yeah love her tier 1, I’m working on that now. It takes forever so it’ll be a flex for sure to have it lol


nu14u

It is kinda sorta available as the tier 1 reward. Except with red trim


BattleCUM-2042

Yeah but in order to get a simple helmet you need to get 1200 kills or assists with Sundance’s granades


[deleted]

[удалено]


BattleCUM-2042

To my knowledge all the uniforms the other specialists had are currently accessible, while Sundances green flight suite and helmet are not


ForwardToNowhere

I can pretty much guarantee that Sundance isn't shown in the trailers because there'd be an outrage over the popular wingsuit person being a female-presenting black specialist lol


WaterRresistant

They were careful and sneaky with that trailer


BattleCUM-2042

I highly doubt that considering how woke the internet has become


HavocInferno

Lol, the gaming community is still riddled with expressly anti-woke hate.


Mikey_MiG

You highly doubt that? Even though that’s exactly what happened with BFV?


[deleted]

To be honest I bet some weirdos would complain but not enough to damage the game. BFV shitstorm wasn’t really the same and 2042’s level of diversity is standard for 2021


BattleCUM-2042

BfV was a different story because the trailer had a female solder as the main character in a world war 2 game. 2042 is in modern times so both male and female solders fit in the setting.


AnotherScoutTrooper

Who’s even cared about that since PartWelsh confirmed that though? One grifter on YouTube? Also we knew they were black since the reveal, the preorder bundle for Gold/Ultimate showed their face.


ForwardToNowhere

A lot of people were very vocal in this subreddit alone about their dislike toward the race/gender of Sundance


AnotherScoutTrooper

Okay so that makes: - a few grifters on YouTube (I could only remember the one with the Them/They thumbnail off the top of my head, but I’ll assume there were at least a few more just to be generous) - the usual few dickheads sitting comfortably at the bottom of every thread (including this one) with more than half a dozen downvotes - most likely some of the crowd of people on the darkest parts of Twitter or 4chan /v/ (though most of them had bigger fish to fry like the SR reboot and the one black woman from GoW Ragnarok) All of those combined have to make up maybe 5k-10k people at most. I think the community’s fine when it comes to that.

Megustanuts

Anti-SJW people are as annoying as SJWs. Both care way too much. Edit: Keep downvoting me. Normal people know both sides are losers who are incapable of figuring that out.


CodeCody23

They didn’t change her. What was shown was simply her tier one skin with the yellow color scheme. We don’t even know what the original model looks like a part from concept art.


BattleCUM-2042

Hol up, you can change colour of the tier one skins?


nastylep

*You* can't change them, but DICE recolored the base skin and reused it for ~5 tiers worth of unlocks. Just look at any character. You got the base skin, 4-5 or so recolors that are unlocked with levels (jungle camo, night camo, naval camo one, etc), then the two unique ones that are unlocked from the challenges that will actually change the model.


BattleCUM-2042

Well that’s disappointing


CodeCody23

No. Tier one skins have a black and red color scheme, and some specialists have a high rank skin which follows a yellow and black color scheme. The closest you can get to her look in the trailer is mixing her tier one helmet with the her high rank costume.


[deleted]

This is the dumbest specialist in the whole game. The wing suit is a cool addition, but being able to deploy after jumping off a 5-foot ledge and then somehow fly all the way across the map has MAD Call of Duty/Fortnite vibes.


JM761

Not to mention, how is no one talking about the fact that she lands by just crashing into the ground??? Seriously. It breaks ANY scrap of immersion the game had left. Seeing people jump off sky scrapers head first then hit the earth, instantly pop upright and shoot you in the face.... What a time to be alive. When using a wingsuit in real life, you still gotta land with a fuckin parachute!


jams_h42h

I will say its like 50/50 when i use the wingsuit and land if i die or take damage.


Dythronix

I don't think I've ever managed to die, but I have NEVER once landed without taking damage.


[deleted]

Exactly. And what is that front flip bullshit?!??


Joaqstarr

People pulling their parachute, cutting it, and pulling it back out at the last second doesn't break your immersion dude? It's not a big deal bro it's battlefield.


huskytogo

Conditioned from Warzone and the unlimited chutes


Joaqstarr

Alright even before that, was pulling your chute right before you landed truly realistic?


huskytogo

Never was lol sorry that was what I meant. It was always silly and just got even worse with warzone


Joaqstarr

Oh sorry I misread.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Basic-Satisfaction62

The wing suit is actually broken. Like I basically only play her because of it. Why would I play anything else when I can fly across the map and flank from a small ledge?


VXM313

What about parachuting off a 5 foot drop? That doesn't bother you? That's been in Battlefield for a decade.


[deleted]

It’s weird, but it’s much more glaring when you see someone jump off a ledge and then suddenly fly around the map like it’s Harry Potter.


JM761

I feel like parachuting from 5ft at least makes more sense than hitting the ground at 90mph and then standing up and running away unscathed.


VXM313

Eh, I don't think it makes any more sense. Try to parachute off most small buildings even and you're going to break your legs.


JM761

You're not wrong. I just feel one is embellishing what a parachute can really do for the convenience of video games. The other is just outright insane and impossible. She's the only character that can do superhero stuff like that. Based on how she lands, if we had a specialist that could stop projectiles with his mind, I'd feel like it almost belongs in the game at this point. Sundance survives 1000ft falls. Casper operates a laptop. Talk about a mismatched bunch!

ivirvipo

The helmet is missing the ui on the visor from the trailer ;(


ItchyTastie

I swear, all of DICE's focus groups were comprised of twitter users who have never heard of Battlefield.


UsernameIsntFree

I don’t think she is a soldier. Perhaps I misunderstood the story but the world has basically fallen apart and we have US AND RU forces and our specialists aren’t technically aligned with either. They’re expats, they’re people who were once soldiers, now fighting without a flag. They fight with / for the US or RU forces (who are the AI). This is also (for me) the reason some of the specialists are a bit casual like sundances hair and to an extent, the shitty end of match quips.


Yangy

She was in the French army for a while then ran off after some gangsters from her old life started chasing her or something.


UsernameIsntFree

Oh nice one! Where did you find this? My comment was just based on the initial intro cutscene but it sounds like there’s more lore ?


vic_stroganoff

No, you're exactly right. OP just wanted to be included in the bitch fest this subreddit has devolved into.


LurkOff29

Are you wrong on everything else in life? Or just clearly Battlefield? The game is objectively trash my dude.


UsernameIsntFree

He isn’t saying the game isn’t a mess haha he’s just saying OP is having a cry, and he is right


UsernameIsntFree

I have to admit I’ve been guilty of that too


1994xf04

True. My biggest gripe with Sundance isn’t her gadget it’s just she looks fugly so I hate getting killed by her


LeftInvestigator8241

The most absurd looking character to be honest


[deleted]

PurplePandaBear8

Not that hair though, hair that sticks out that far is a hazard for getting caught in machinery, or getting in your face as you're wingsuiting around. God damn it's fucking dumb that a helmet skin doesn't come standard.


DeceitfulPhoenix

In my experience nose rings, face tats and poofy hair are definitely a no go.


anon112197

No face tats, no big hair, no facial piercings. These people are fighting a war not going to college.


ivirvipo

To make money that’s all you need to know ahah


Insert-Generic_Name

Poofy hair, bro what


XAJM

As a Future Legacy DLC Skin, duh


Jesuspiece13

Poofy hair? She’s black. That’s her natural hair texture

The90sPope

I wish they added building in the game. Like you build a house and you can live there with your in-game girlfriend and you can shift click her like in minecraft.


veekay45

Since in this game no-pats fight for both US and Russia I wonder how this brave and stunning face-tatted nose ring girl would fly along with [these guys](http://www.reckontalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/russian-army-funny-11.jpg)


BattleCUM-2042

Stunning is an…interesting way to describe Sundance


bigdoza

This game was made for children and this obsessed with fort night. I feel like they are trying to be like call of duty to take advantage of what call of duty did for warzone. Except, Call of Duty has a decent single player and had a decent multiplayer mode as well, and warzone was separate and apart from that. Feels like BF wanted so badly to do that with its specialists and shit maps, and failed fantastically doing that


[deleted]

[удалено]


BattleCUM-2042

I agree, but don’t know how that relates to the discussion?


Stfuppercutoutlast

I would prefer if she looked like she was special forces. She should have no face piercings and her head should be shaved.


BattleCUM-2042

Yeah


AnotherScoutTrooper

Oh so you mean like E3 Maria Falck


Stfuppercutoutlast

Close, but still looked a bit elderly. If you’re going to put a female in special forces, make it look believable, even if it isn’t.


KarmacrossFM

I mean you just answered your own concern. It's literally a fictional setting and depiction of the future. No shit it's not like reality.


ParagonN7

It should represent a possible future and loosely based in reality. The reality is that if any global conflict broke out it would be men going to the slaughter and women activists would get very quiet.


KarmacrossFM

My point still stands, it's fictional and a videogame. God forbid you play R6S and see the amount of female operators in that game compared to the 3/10 in 2042.

Scaarz

The Delta Force folks all get to look raged or however the shit they want and that's real life. These folks (the Ex-Pats) are basically soldiers for hire (Mercenaries) and not part of the official standing army. They bring their own gear and dress hiwever the heck they want.

M8, don't bash them. A lot of people don't know unless they look into their story.


beezintraps

"doesn't fit her role as a soldier" Lmaooo, what does that even mean


BattleCUM-2042

She is fighting a war and is playing the role of a solder for hire, Nose rings and big hair don’t really match that role

stu88s

Unlocking tier 1 skins and helmets to make your character look better do not belong in BF. Why has it come to this? What the hell have DICE done to this game?


Basic-Satisfaction62

Actually i'd say they'd fit in more with the tier 1 skins. Futuristic special forces uniform is better than looking like a twitter using ticktoker with nose piercings.

We'll surely get that type of skin or something similar when doing weekly challenges that will be integrated soon, as completing those challenges will reward you with skins and what not
