Battlefest Class Weeks – The Operator
As part of the Battlefest celebrations, we are now kicking off the Battlefest Class Weeks. Throughout the following month, we will bring each of the four Battlefield™ Hardline classes into the limelight, handing out gameplay tips and in-game challenges. First up: the Operator class.
If you’re already down with the Assault class from Battlefield 4™, you know the score – this is a well-rounded class specialized in both firefights and healing teammates with their First Aid Packs and Defibrillators. These agents are in many ways the backbone of the Battlefield – truly a cop’s and criminal’s best friend. If you’re new to Battlefield Hardline, choosing Operator as your first class pick is not a bad idea.
Operator Community Mission
We’ve prepped a Community Mission exclusive to all you Operators out there, challenging your quick thinking and team play skills. Your objective: We want you to revive 10 million teammates before April 13, 2AM PDT. If you deliver, we’ll award you with a Gold Battlepack full of in-game goodies and a stunning Operator-themed wallpaper.
The Community Mission is active between April 7, 9AM PT and April 13, 2AM PT. You can track the mission progress on the “Missions” tab on Battlelog.
How to Play as Operator – Tips and Tricks
To make sure you get as much out of your Operator agent as possible, we’ve prepped a few pointers for the class. Make sure to spend Cash to unlock new gear and to experiment with loadouts to find the perfect setup for you. Good luck out on the streets.
Master the First Aid Pack: The First Aid Pack is available to the Operator class right off the bat. Chuck these on the ground and any nearby teammate (including yourself) will get healed, netting you a fat chunk of points. Another way to get patched up is simply to walk up to an Operator carrying a Pack and interact with him. So don’t be shy. That could be lethal.
The Perfect Range: With its versatile assault rifles (make sure to buy these as soon as you have enough cash), The Operator class thrives at medium range. Work on your aim, try not to get too close to your enemies, and rack up those kills. Use Cash to buy upgrades for your gun and experiment with different loadouts.
Revive and Survive: Busted by an explosion or a reckless driver? No sweat. If you’ve equipped the Survivalist gadget, you’ve got an ace up your sleeve. Use this and you’re back on your feet – although with 10% health. Note that this gadget only works for the aforementioned dangers. Bullets are still dangerous.
If you want to save the behind of someone else, equip the Defibrillator. Available only to the Cops’ side, this device is a life-saver for downed teammates. Charge it, make sure the revive area is safe, and bring your buddy back to the fight. Or just use it on an enemy for the ultimate humiliation kill.
