Apply dog tag to loadout under soldier options in main menu, it won’t show for you, but when you get kills it will show for your killcam.

Wait so apply which dog tag? Do you apply the default dog tag to show your best gun, or do you go to back side and choose the gun you want with over 100 kills dog tag and it shows the updated number?

It’s the back side dog tag (gold one and you need 100 kills with that weapon (not sure if different variants count)), your kill stat won’t appear in menus but will in game.

Once you get 100 kills total with any/all of the variants of one weapon, you will be awarded a gold back dog tag. It will show all of your kills with that weapon.

Frankly I don’t bother has if you are using that weapon your victim can see your service stars anyway.

I’m sure if enough want it they could add the kill counter for your weapons from Hardline so you can always know how many kills you have with everything at all times.

Buehler?

I want to use the silver grenade tag but want to make sure it shows the number of kills on the backside.

There needs to be a way to show this for whichever gun you’re currently using, not just for the gun you specified between games.

People see your service stars when you kill, so they know to the last 100 how many kills you have… not that it really matters…

I like using the selb 1906 dog tag since I have over a thousand kills with it and everyone says it’s underpowered. I like it even when I’m not using medic because I’m in the top 1% and with such few kills, I know almost no one uses it. I think it’s underrated and like to think people will see that it can be a useful weapon.

No what I mean is, say you assign the dog tag for the MP19, then in game you switch based on the battle flow between three or four classes, and maybe for a time you switch your Assault loadout to the shotgun. Other players will still only see your MP19 info. I’m saying there should be a generic “currently equipped gun” dog tag to choose from, which in game becomes the dog tag for whichever gun you are using.
