Mission Information

During combat, the side with the most information has the advantage. To gain some additional insight during a mission, press the menu button. During the single-player campaign, this also pauses the game. The menu screen contains some great assets. First off are the objectives.

These include the overall objective as well as the current orders you must complete. Check in on your objectives and orders frequently to stay focused on the purpose and execution of your mission. Also on the menu screen is a larger map of the area in which you are operating.

This is not only larger than the minimap, but it also shows a larger area. This map uses the same symbols as the minimap and also shows all detected enemies as well as all friendlies. Use it to find enemies that are too far away to appear on your minimap.
