Battlefield 2042 introduces a new class system known as Specialists. Each Specialist has their own ability and traits that make them stand out. One such character – Emma “Sundance” Rosier – has the ability to use a glider when jumping off of buildings. That is why this guide will show you how to use the glider in Battlefield 2042.
This ability provides a lot of mobility to Sundance but it also means that you must be extremely precise when using it. If you are a trophy hunter, you’ll want to be good at gliding since it gives you a trophy/achievement as well. On top of that, having a good FOV setting will allow you to see more of the map and know exactly where to land. Let’s find out how you can use the glider and be highly effective.
Battlefield 2042: Glider Controls for Sundance
Using the glider can be quite tricky since it leaves the player wide open in front of the enemy. Also, if you do not control where you want to land, you might land in the middle of your enemies; making it an awkward situation. Make sure that you have the best sensitivity settings to make it easier to control the glider.
Controls for the Glider in Battlefield 2042
Playing as Sundance is extremely fun and once you get used to her abilities, you won’t use any other character. The first time we played as Sundance, we couldn’t figure out what the controls were for the glider. To make it easy and convenient for you, we have dotted down the controls to use the glider. If you’re confused about the controls, check out our Battlefield 2042 controls guide for all supported platforms.
| Controls | Purpose |
| W/Analog Forward | Close flappers and go down with speed |
| S/Analog Back | Open flappers to glide is the air longer |
| Space/X/A | Press in the air to open the wingsuit |
To make the most of your wingsuit, press S/Analog Back to gain some altitude. Afterwards, press forward or W to gain velocity and go forward swiftly. Keep alternating between the two buttons to cover the maximum distance possible. To get the most out of this ability, make sure that you unlock all the weapons so you have a gun for every situation.
This ability makes Sundance an extremely good Specialist and gives you an edge over the competition. The main advantage of having a wingsuit is to glide across an area and get behind enemy lines. This way you can take out enemy snipers and let your team push ahead. Not only that, but you can also use the wingsuit to get away from sticky situations as well.
That about does it for our guide about how to use the glider in Battlefield 2042. Let us know in the comments below what Specialist is your favorite and why?
