Not as good as I thought it was going to be...

All I can say that this was an epic letdown. This game looked like it was going to be great, but it ended being an average game. Campaign was ok, and it was even more fun with co-op. The online was the worst thing I've ever played. Only 2vs.2 online...boring. I always ended up with people that didn't have mics so we would be destroyed every match. Not a fun game online, but campaign was pretty cool. Also, the achievements are pretty easy.

Unlockable: Free Weapons & Difficulty
Too cheap to buy the weapons? You can unlock access to all the secondary and special weapons by beating the campaign on professional difficulty, or just the primary weapons (assault rifles, shotguns, etc.) by beating the game on any other lesser difficulty.

To unlock professional difficulty, do as the game tells you -- beat the game's campaign on either recruit or contractor difficulty.

Unlocked weapons are only available at their base (no upgrade) version.

Hint: Briefcase Locations
Below are the locations of all fourteen intel briefcases in the game. Please keep in mind that they can only be collected one time, so if you've collected a briefcase, it won't appear again on a subsequent playthrough. On the flipside, however, if you didn't collect them on your first playthrough, they'll be there on subsequent playthroughs until you do.

Afghanistan

1.) Look behind the initial M-11 missile you encounter. There's a small path going uphill near it. That's where this intel briefcase is.
2.) Kill the first heavy armor guard you encounter (there will be a cutscene), and search the platform area nearby. The briefcase is on top of a short set of stairs at the back end of the platform.
3.) In the area adjacent to Brian Hick's cell, you will find this briefcase.
Iraq

1.) Right before climbing up the ladder in order to take out Ali Youseff's Helicopter, grab the briefcase at the bottom of the ladder.
2.) After calling in the air-strike on a nearby bunker, seek out a large tent near the dividing wall. The briefcase should be against the wall near the tent.
3.) Right before you meet Ali Youseff, there are some metal platforms with armed guards on it. Kill all of the enemies, and then climb up the steps to the platform's second level. Climb another ladder to a third level, where the briefcase is located.
Aircraft Carrier

1.) After landing on the ship's main deck, run to the right of the control tower. The briefcase is nearby.
2.) When you enter the hangar to use one of the parked planes to blow through a door, seek out some missiles. Look behind them, as they obscure the location of this briefcase.
3.) After setting the missiles to blow up the ship in the final hangar, look around to find a sort of makeshift basketball court. Behind the farthest basket is this briefcase.
