This allows players to continuously change their playstyle during a round. For example, they can switch out a 3x Scope for a Red Dot if they plan on taking a close-range fight.

DICE described the system as "intuitive, easy to use, and best of all FAST," so players shouldn't be stuck fiddling with attachments in a firefight.

However, (using an Xbox controller on PC) the directional buttons don't always seem to work. Instead, you need to use the ABXY buttons to cycle attachments. These correspond to the location on the attachment menu, e.g, Y is at the top, so changes the Sight attachment.

Battlefield 2042 Portal offers pre-designed playlists featuring Conquest in Battlefield 1942 and Battlefield 3, as well as Rush in Bad Company 2. However, there's no Plus System in these playlists, so you can't change attachments on the fly.
