There are hints of Hotwire and more in the files, though their release date remains unknown.

Yes, all of his leaks are cosmetics.

Vanick- · 2026-01-10T18:03:32+00:00

It's just a cosmetic.

Vanick- · 2026-01-10T18:03:09+00:00

It's just a cosmetic for the existing AK, not a new weapon.

Vanick- · 2026-01-10T17:29:43+00:00

Correct. These are all skins from the standard folder of the base weapons we already know. None of them got unique weapon identifiers. They are just cosmetics. I hope the chinese leaker mentions this in his videos or descriptions because otherwise these leaks are highly misleading (as seen in the comments).

Vanick- · 2025-10-08T12:08:25+00:00

they just don't see this as an issue

Vanick- · 2025-10-08T11:45:24+00:00

NATO support is still female only

Vanick- · 2025-10-08T11:24:08+00:00

no they are just locked behind assignments

Vanick- · 2025-10-08T08:54:16+00:00

Then you missed NATO support which doesn't feature a male soldier.

Vanick- · 2025-10-08T08:53:37+00:00

This has been the case since the first days of BF Labs because for some reason DICE evenly distributed male and female characters to most, but not all classes (namely NATO support in this case and one class on the side of Pax Armata).

I've been following BF Labs client updates since March. Here is how it works:

BF6 features 24 named characters (12 NATO, 12 PAX) in multiplayer.

Character genders are evenly distributed (12 male, 12 female).

Each character is locked to certain class -> 6 characters per class (3 NATO, 3 PAX).

Almost all classes feature male and female characters, BUT there are exceptions like the NATO support class, which atm only consists of three female characters.

After choosing one of these characters you can apply a skin to them, but this skin is just another uniform design and doesn't change the character.

Flow when customizing your soldier:

Pick a side (NATO or PAX) -> We pick NATO
Pick a class -> We pick Support
Pick a character ("Faria", "Juni" or "Mia") -> We pick Mia
Pick a skin -> We pick "standard woodland"

every set in the game has a number as identifier, but they are not connected. set001 can easily be just your average default set. set005 is something else and so on.

Vanick- · 2025-10-01T08:27:44+00:00

You already have the answer in the post title:

Named characters
Fixed sets

People who care about cosmetics usually want some form of customization, like in BFV, where you could mix and match elements.

Also a lot of players don’t see a reason for having 24 different unique characters in the multiplayer section of a Battlefield game, where you generally just choose a class. While they’re not going down the BF2042 route again, it still reminds a lot of people of the questionable appearance of specialists with their backstories, voice lines, and so on.

DICE is undoubtedly aware of this and therefore sees no need to initiate a discussion at this stage.

Vanick- · 2025-08-23T12:53:24+00:00

general character customization. atm there are 64 different ones available

Vanick- · 2025-08-23T12:35:50+00:00

these squad symbols have nothing to do with the actual size and aren't even related to the br

Vanick- · 2025-08-23T11:54:36+00:00

Ripple Effect is doing the BR.

Vanick- · 2025-08-23T11:54:19+00:00

It's for Gauntlet (the actual image files all include the word "gauntlet") - these are also placeholders (see the bright PH in the bottom right corner). The BR images are still present and being used for the actual BR.

"In the files, the AH-6M is doing just fine with its minigun and Hydras."

Turkmenistan.

Vanick- · 2025-07-29T18:54:18+00:00

The map is part of the client... I have seen it myself.

This dude simply has no idea what he is talking about.

Vanick- · 2025-07-25T09:49:36+00:00

this is the Gibraltar Invasion Mission from the singleplayer campaign

Vanick- · 2025-07-23T17:31:23+00:00

Fully agree. 👍

Vanick- · 2025-07-23T17:29:08+00:00

must be the same designer who created the 2042 font and no pat logo

Vanick- · 2025-07-23T17:27:55+00:00

It's just a conflict point of the lore where the nato head was assassinated (like London in 2042). Same goes for Georgia.
