Sandcastle locations: Each map hides a sandcastle. On Guadalcanal, go to the bigger of the two small islands and follow the beach left of the two trees to find a sandcastle and shovel. On Iwo Jima, look on the island closest to the carrier for a sandcastle facing the ship. On Wake Island, check the right-hand of the two small islands by the beach base for a sandcastle with a Swedish flag and a yellow shovel.
Repair tips: Land a plane on a landing pad or ship to repair it, drive a tank into a friendly spawn hut on Guadalcanal or Iwo Jima, or have an infantry soldier use the wrench on any vehicle.
Squad spawning: Join a squad and you will spawn next to your squadmates instead of back at the base.
Early flag grab: After spawning, fly a plane straight to the airfield base, parachute out and capture it. Your team gets a forward spawn point plus bombing runs, tanks and another plane.
Faster reloads: Press Reload, sprint a few steps, then press Reload again to skip part of the animation.
Haggard easter egg: On a small island in the Iwo Jima mission you can find the phrase Haggard was here written in the sand, a nod to the Bad Company pilot.
