4. Multiplayer Hints

* Press and hold the Switch Team/Fall-In key (by default bound to SHIFT)
to call in reinforcements if you have lost all of your squad mates. Every fire
team that enters the battlefield uses one reinforcement. If your teammate
leaves the battle before it is over, you will receive his unused
reinforcements.
* Use the situational awareness view to help track enemy movements, but
remember that the multiplayer game doesn’t pause when you are in SA view. Your
teammate and his fire team are always visible to you - use this to coordinate
your attacks.
* When you are killed, you can cycle through candidates to Field Promote
a surviving soldier to the new squad leader.
* The yellow arrows on the compass indicate destination objectives. The
orange arrows on the compass indicate item objectives. The grey arrows on the
compass indicate possible item objectives that haven\'t been discovered yet.
* Watch the Mission Timer in the upper left hand corner – it will start
flashing when there is only one minute left to complete your objectives.
* If your fire team becomes suppressed, issue a fire command to rally
them out of it.
* Signs designate team insertion areas. You can not enter an enemy team\'s
insertion area.
