===Compass=== | ===Compass=== | ||
On the bottom left of the picture | On the bottom left of the picture is the compass. As well as giving you directions you'll see green triangles and red circles. The green triangles represent your team mates and the direction of the pointy end of the triangle is the direction in which they're facing. The red circles represent your enemies, but only if you can see them or they're firing. If an enemy is behind a crate or another obstacle and is not firing or creating any noise, then it won't be shown on the compass. | ||
The star on the compass represents the direction of your objective. For example, if the objective is to blow up a tank, then the tank is in the direction of the star. If the objective is to secure a building, then the direction of the building you need to secure is shown by the star. | |||

It is split into two halves, the left tells you how many bullets have been loaded into the gun, the right half tells you how many bullets you have left.

===Grenade Gauge=== | ===Grenade Gauge=== | ||
Slightly above the ammo gauge | Slightly above the ammo gauge is the grenade gauge. On the top it shows how many smoke grenades you have, on the bottom it shows how many frag grenades you have. You can only carry 4 of each grenade at the same time, but the number gets renewed every time you complete a mission. Occasionally, you will also see bags near fallen enemies that contain Stielhandgranate ammo. | ||

When you have not raised your weapon to look through the sight (the most accurate way to shoot) a crosshair-really a circle of radial lines- will appear. Use the crosshair to aim if you don't have time to raise your weapon to look through the sight. If the crosshair turns red, it means it's over an enemy. Use this to your advantage when you can't see your enemy. | ||
===Tank Icon=== | ===Tank Icon=== | ||
On the mission "The Tank Squadrons" only, to the left of the compass is the tank icon. It basically shows what direction you're tank is going in and what way the barrel is pointing in relation to the tank. | On the mission "The Tank Squadrons" only, to the left of the compass is the tank icon.
