This week, in our Boot Camp series, we will explore everything related to operator customization. We will explain how it works and how to unlock it.
Customization
Now, let's take a look at how to customize your operator. The process is simple, but we'll walk you through it.
Remember, when customizing your operator, the hitbox remains the same. Thinner operators have no advantages in this regard, and bigger clothing does not slow you down. The helmet shape and size does not matter, the helmet hitbox covers your entire head. As long as you have headgear equipped, your loadout’s armor will protect you. So with this in mind, be free and go wild!

Obtaining Customization
To start with, you have 3 loadouts. Each of these carries a different set of customization items, which you can mix in any given character slot. However this will be a little limited, so let’s look at how to unlock new items.
First, you can obtain some free items via achievements. Upon obtaining 500 kills in Moscow, Berlin, or Warsaw in Tac Ops, you will obtain an operator blueprint, one for each map where you achieved 500 kills. You can find these achievements in Career -> Achievements -> Events -> Local Advancements. In addition to this free option, there are occasional silver currency blueprints being added to the shop. You can obtain this currency by doing weekly challenges or completing achievements. Secondly, you can obtain operator blueprints from the in-game or launcher shops. And of course, by purchasing the Battle Pass and completing the necessary tiers, you will unlock even more operator customization via blueprints.
Once you get an operator blueprint, it will become available to use from your list of operators. But more importantly, each item that’s included in the operator blueprint can now be used to create your own new one. You’ll be able to use all of the components that the operator came with, i.e. the helmet, the arm patch, the voiceover, the pants, etc. Obtaining a certain camouflage for a certain piece of clothing will let you color that piece of clothing with that camouflage. In essence, each operator is an expansion to your catalog of customization.
Thank you for reading! We hope you learned something, and we’d love to see what you create in our Discord where you can also go for some inspiration from fellow tacticool enthusiasts! And if you wish for us to go into extra detail on any one topic, make sure to tell us, and we’ll be happy to explain. See you next time!
