A quick reference for you to monitor what you need to do during a match in order to acquire player tags.
 
 

Introduction

Battlefield has brought back player customization cards, and with that there are new tags we can display to showcase achievements. Most of these tags have specific requirements that you need to be aware of in order to achieve them. Meaning that most of them will not be obtained through typical game play. Since there’s no way to access them during a round, I’ve put together this guide to provide a cheat sheet to refer to during your matches. I hope that you’ll find this beneficial and I wish you the best of luck in your progress!
 
 
 

Guide Dissemination

The guide will consist of in game screenshots from a 1080×1200 screen with the titled tag highlighted and the displayed text typed out underneath.
 

• The tags are listed as they appear in the player menu
• The icons will change accordingly for each displayed tag
• Tags that have round requirements will have them will be bold and underlined
• Tags that have life requirements will be italicized, underlined, and bold
• Tags obtained from melee cannot be equipped for your person (this is in line with previous games)
• Tips will be added in based on my own experiences, and eventually from the community as well
• Player pictures will not be touched on in this guide due to the low bar for obtaining them via natural game progression
