Graphic User Interface (GUI)
Objective Info
This gives you a quick glance of the status of your mission
objectives. The status of capture points, objectives, and other
milestones on your road to victory are reflected here. You want to
see all the flags in your pattern.
Team Overlay
This shows the status, names, and locations of each of your
teammates. Use it to help coordinate your attacks.
Sprint Bar
Perhaps one of the most overlooked abilities in RTCW is the sprint.
By holding down the Sprint key (Caps Lock by default) you can
achieve quick bursts of speed. Your Sprint Bar will drop quickly,
though, and you can only sprint as long as it remains green. Note
that jumping also drains your Sprint Bar, so no bunny-hopping!
Health
It's how much health you have, duh. Don't let it reach 0. Replenish
your health by picking up Medkits dropped by Medics.
Compass
This tool does more than just tell you what direction you're facing.
When a teammate makes a voice command/comment or is injured, you'll
see red arrows appear on the compas. Follow them to your teammate.
Ammo In Clip
Tells you how much ammo is left in your current clip. You'll reload
automatically if it reaches 0, but you can reload prematurely by
hitting the Reload key (R by default). This is good to keep yourself
from becoming vulnerable during a firefight.
Ammo in Reserve
Shows how much ammunition you have in reserve. Increase this number
by picking up Ammo Packs dropped by the Lieutenant.
Power Bar
This charge meter tells you when you can use your class's special
abilities. Each time you use some abilities (dropping medkits,
placing dynamite, calling airstrikes, etc.), it is either partially
or totally drained. You are then unable to perform special abilities
requiring charge until it regenerates.
Voice Commands/Comments (Not Shown)
Hitting the Voice Command button (V by default) will bring up a
simple voice command menu. Hit the corresponding number for each
branch in the menu until you get to the command you desire.
Activity Icons
Whenever you walk up to something that you can interact with, you
will see a number of special icons. This means that you can press
the Use key (Z by default) or the attack key (Mouse1 by default) to
achieve a special result. The Activity Icons in the Beach map are as
follows: Dynamite, In Use, Repair, Defuse or Arm Dynamite, Climb,
Break and Stab.
