Avoiding damage when in a building
When in urban areas, about half of the damage comes when you are in a building. Have all the teammates (except Foley; if there is a second floor put him at a window) cover a door or entryway.
Victor Two level: First tank:
When you reach the third area where you see the first heavy tank, do not make any sounds. The tank crew is standing behind the tank. Have Conners and Foley kill them before they know that you are there, and before they can get in the tank.
CPU control:
Switch to a different soldier and remain idle (do not move, switch a weapon, or fire). The CPU will still be in control of that person. Note: The CPU will not move unless you switch during one of the commands. The CPU only fires at enemies.
Extreme mode:
Successfully complete the game under the hard difficulty setting to unlock the extreme difficulty setting.
Clear room without a door
To clear a room without a door, first throw a phosphorous grenade in. Then, have Jones follow you and have Foley and Connors cover the entrance. Then, tell Jones to rush the opposite side of the room. Also move in at the same time and rush a corner, gunning down any resistance. If there is a door, then position someone with an automatic weapon facing the door (preferably Connors), then open the door and back off while Connors polishes off any resistance. Then, rush the room and tell Connors to follow you and shoot anything that moves.
Scouting:
When you are moving ahead to scout a location, always leave your squad in a good position that they can cover you from, and in a pinch lay down some serious suppressive fire. Even if they do not hit the enemy, it will make them hit the dirt.
Avoiding damage from fire
Whenever you are on fire from a grenade or rocket, drop to the ground and roll. Once you do this, the fire will be extinguished and will stop hurting you.
Chemical Warfare mission: Use tank
Shortly after you go underground, there will be an intermission sequence showing a tank commander leave his tank. After this, kill the commander. When you get to the tank, do not blow it up. You can actually get into it.
CPU control
Switch to a different soldier and remain idle (do not move, switch a weapon, or fire). The CPU will still be in control of that person. Note: The CPU will not move unless you switch during one of the commands. The CPU only fires at enemies.
Besieged mission
In order to complete this mission, you must have snipers on top of the building in order to win that battle. Place a tank mine by a dirt hill-looking place then put down three claymores by the second hill. Even though the claymores will not destroy the tank, they will let you know you that the tank is approaching and will slow it down slightly. When you finish that, have everyone run to the gate where the Delta team will C4 the door. Run in quickly and have everyone inside -- there is a heavy duty tank coming; so run.
As soon as the door opens in the base, send Jones out the door. Go left to the big hole in the wall and place an anti-tank mine in the middle. Once this is done, retreat back to the base. When the tank arrives, it will be destroyed.
BMP types
There are two types of BMP tanks that you will encounter. The BMP-1 has a very short turret and it shoots explosive shells. The BMP-2 has a taller turret with a longer barrel and shoots anti-infantry non explosive shells that are very deadly. This is the version you can drive in the Chemical Warfare mission.

Healing falling teammates:
If one of your teammates falls to the ground, throw a smoke grenade near him. Then, get your health packet out and heal him.
