Player View
1st person, which is shown in the image far left. This is where you look through the eyes of your character, and gives the best all round view when it comes to targeting enemies. 3rd person gives you a view outside your body and as you can see you can observe a larger area. This view is good for checking the positions of your team mates and to get a bigger view of the world around you. To switch views press the enter key on the far right of the keyboard. Crosshair + Indicator & Selecting Weapons + Status Information about these two sections can be found here, along with other information about using the weapons in the game. Action Menu
The number of options in the action menu will change if you are near a vehicle (image left was taken with me near a M1A1 tank), as you can see the options are context sensitive and offer several possibilities for interacting with the M1A1. Radio This will be used extensively, and you'll have be paying it a lot of attention when the radio starts to kick in, especially in a fire fight. When your squad leader gives a command he will sometimes indicate the direction. A clock symbol will appear on the left of your screen to give you your bearings. So if the command is "enemy spotted at 1 o'clock" you'll be able to position yourself to face the target, and advance to take it down. Waypoints When in a squad the leader will ask you to stay in formation. Follow the yellow square to remain within the formation. If at anytime the leader orders you to move to 'x' location a waypoint will appear in the distance, and an indicator will show where it is - and how far away. For example in the image at the top of this page you'll see the waypoint is to the left at a distance of 890m. Command Menu & Command Bar By pressing the backspace key or one of the number keys you'll access the
command menu. This is mainly used when you're a squad leader, together with the
command bar. I'll cover this in detail in the Squad Command section here.
