How to play as male/female
By ElusiveRinkusu
Yes, it's possible but it's complicated. I, personally, don't like that some classes are gender locked and there should be an option for each ones.

For your information, the author (me) doesn't mind female characters. This guide is solely created for your convenience and navigation through available characters according to your preference. My only complaint would be the character system that has skins tied to a specific character and their sex. I haven't played 2042 only to find out that the skins I have unlocked through that free pass are tied to certain characters only, which are also female. I think we should be able to simply change sex of the soldier class like in Helldivers 2 or Battlefield 5, where only the body build changes as well as the skin for that specific class not the character.

Intro
There are three subfactions in each faction. Luckily, in almost every faction it is possible to choose all both sex options in those subfactions. I have created a convenient list of all characters and the requirements to unlock them as well as their sex. Some characters are unavailabe to unlock at the moment but I will include them later once the developers have added the assignments to unlock them.

To access character selection go to "Loadouts" in the main menu, click "appearance", choose the desired faction, and class of the character you want to change
NATO faction

In this faction, the only class that is gender locked is Support. You can only choose female soldier, unfortunately. However, I hope that they will add more characters in the future and the variety of choice as well.

i look at this guide because im just a little gay and want to play as women and i see several people still unaware that women can serve in the military how are we THIS uninformed guys

I dont mind playing as a woman, in the 101st we were the first to field female line medics in afghanistan 2017, shout out to Studavan and O'conel, my personal gripe about no male option for support for nato is that i was a medic in the army, in a heavy weapons platoon. Im grinding the 240 for that reason, idc if its shit. So a male medic/gunner that would basically be me would be awesome.

In EA's defence, I think they are finally learning, women belong in the hospital and in the kitchen. That's probably why all the medics are chicks, nursing is a woman's job.

honestly I just thought the female characters were skinny dudes until I jumped in a game and heard a bunch of bitches screaming and it scared the shit out of me.

Imagine loving men so much, you refuse to play women for whatever reason.

Thank you! We should have the option to switch. its an extremely basic function to switch between male and female NPC, I remember i could choose between boy and girl sprite on my Pokemon game on my Gameboy Advanced decades ago. Like when battlefield 2042 came out without leader boards and Voice chat.

@Meballzitch Yeah I'd trade lives too if I was a nasty Brit.
Sinder 21 Oct @ 9:51am 
Who the fuck gives a shit, ya all dont have anything better in life to complain about?
Meballzitch 21 Oct @ 5:51am 
@Roof_Korean can we trade lives? I'd love to have women in military arcade games being something I can care about
