Setting Up Loadouts in the Armory
Before deploying into a match, you can customize up to 5 loadouts for you character. Once you edit your loadouts, the game keeps track of them so you won’t have to do it again unless you want to make changes.
Your newly created character comes with 3 default loadouts:
- Loadout #1: Assault rifle, pistol, knife, frag grenades, first aid pack, and medium armor
- Loadout #2: Light sniper rifle w/ low power scope, pistol, knife, smoke grenades, first aid pack, and light armor
- Loadout #3: Light machinegun, pistol, knife, repair kit, un-guided rocket launcher, and heavy armor

Editing Loadouts
In the Edit Loadout screen, use the up & down, left & right d-pad buttons to navigate through the various weapon, gear, and armor slots. Press X to edit the selected slot.

Note the budget info at the top, which shows how much cash you’ve got for goodies. As you’re customizing, the budget info at the top updates in real-time.

If you have gone over budget, you’ll need to go in and scale back what you’re outfitting yourself with before you can leave this screen.
Changing Weapons, Weapon Attachments, and Gear Items
When you select a weapon, gear, or armor item to edit, a new screen appears that allows you to change the weapons and equipment as well as add available attachments to weapons.
