   Here are some tips and secrets for people that (I hope) have already beaten the campaign at least once:

   -AFIN-Map00-ComfortZone:
     
        -Unreal difficulty is hidden, in order to find what you need to do to access it, beat the campaign.... The credits will tell you.
        -If you move one of the rocks towards the bigger one, you can climb to touch the flame of the torch. Then you will notice that
         there is a light in a corner, touch it and you will go to the celling, then find the hidden tiny spaceship.

   -AFIN-Map01-WarriorsLament:

        -There is a hidden translator message at the very beginning of the map, you have to “ghost” to get it, it reveals something very
         important of map 3.
        -There are three ways to access the fortress:
                  -Killing the green Krall, this opens the fortress main gates, he appears in a random spot in the citadel.
                  -Find a way to jump to the rooftop, you could do it by going to the top of the walls of the citadel and use the 
                   GrenadeLauncher or RocketLauncher to shoot yourself to the other side of the top of the wall, from there you can just
                   jump to the fortress. If you are playing on Easy then you can use the Cloak...
                  -Get the ToxinSuit from the underground cavern and go to the back of the fortress, underwater there is an opening
                   that gives you access to the next map.
        -The citadel has an underground cavern that can be access from one of the corners of the citadel, inside the cavern there is a
         ToxinSuit, which by the way appears in a random place.
        -Killing (or not protecting) all the Cows will punish you by spawning a Titan with infinite health :(
        -This map has 10 secret pickups:
                  1) Dispersion Pistol Powerup and Amplifier: get the flares at the beginning of the map, then go back to the starting area
                     and drop one flare at the vase with water.
                  2) Armor: at the beginning of the map you have to jump from platform to platform to finally jump to the Armor.
                  3) Super Health: at the elevator you have to shoot at one of the walls that has an opening. The hole is somewhere
                     in the middle of the elevator's travel.
                  4) Razorjack: inside the tiny house with the second floor, shoot a Grenade Launcher's projectile in one of the walls
                     in the first floor.
                  5) Sniper Rifle: on the rooftop of the building with the purple flames at the top, you have to touch all four of these
                     and then go to the statue in the middle of the citadel.
                  6) Kevlar Suit: jump down the chimney of one of the houses.
                  7) Shield Belt: go to the second floor of the windmill, shoot the glass and then move forward, then jump to one of
                     the sails, and then jump to the top of the windmill. If you manage to do this without air control, you are awesome.
                  8) Ammo stash and Dispersion Pistol Powerup: at the citadel's underground cavern, during the elevator's travel 
                     there is a rock in the celling that, when shoot, falls down revealing the secret.
                  9) Power Shield: At the top of the fortress.
                  10) Flak Cannon (Toxin Suit required): At the tower of the fortress that is flooded with slime, the weapon is in the slime.

   -AFIN-Map02-VecchieFerite:

        -The room between the kitchen and prison (the one with the staircase that takes you to the 2nd floor) has a circular light at the
         top that can be destroyed by shooting at the four supports in each corner, this is not only a requirement to get a secret,
         but also can be used to kill enemies in the room, very useful to kill the Titan in Unreal difficulty.
        -There is a hidden translator message at the end of the ductway of slime, you have to “ghost” to get it, it's an easter egg.
        -At the very beginning of the map there are two barrels with items in them, just in case you haven't found them ;)
        -The key that opens the big doors to the final boss appears in a random spot in the map.
        -Remember that the previous map can be finished in two ways, this one too.
        -The Center room has buttons that activate stairs to better connect the 1st and 2nd floor.
        -There are two secret passageways in the 1st floor that connect kitchen-bathroom, bathroom-storageroom. Shoot the walls.
        -This map has 12 secret pickups: 
                  1) Minigun: In the room right after the starting area you have to touch the window on the top at the opposite side of
                     the room, then go to the bottom of the staircase and you will see a hole on the floor.
                  2) Razorjack: In the kitchen there is a Cow carcass, destroy it.
                  3) Cloak: In the Nali's bathroom destroy the Vandora picture.
                  4) Shield Belt: Open the middle prison cell in the 1st floor.
                  5) Dispersion Pistol Powerup: At the 1st floor of the storage room, there is a corridor with a malfunctioning  door,
                     go down the hole carefully.
                  6) Amplifier: At the church, destroy the Nali statue and go to the wall behind it.
                  7) Armor and “Supreme” Health (Red Super Health): Go to the 1st floor of the storage room, the room with the locked door,
                     there look down to the opposite side of the rock cavern with the lava, you will see a rectangular platform,
                     throw yourself (activate the Cloak to avoid falling damage), then follow the path until you see a hole, inside is 
                     an Asbestos Suit so you can go under the lava, find another hole under the lava.
                  8) Weapon stash (Toxin Suit required): In the Krall's bathroom there is a hole on the floor, follow the ductway.
                  9) Kevlar Suit, Super Health and Razor Ammo: In the corridor with the flames that activate when you get close, you will
                     notice that one of them doesn't work, that one has a fake wall. Inside is a room with red arrows, what you have to do
                     now is use the Rocket Launcher's or Razorjack's secondary fire and follow the arrows direction when you shoot,
                     remember the projectile follows your crosshair, there is a picture in the room that shows you what you cannot see.
                  10) Power Shield: In the arena there are rooms behind the doors, one of them in the 2nd floor has a robot, destroy it.
                  11) Dispersion Pistol Powerup: After the fight with Vulnere, go back to the prison cells where Inti used to be.
                  12) Ammo stash: First free the Nali in the prison cell at the 1st floor, follow him (and protect him), he will take you
                      to a Force Field, then go to the room mention in the first secret of this map (not secret pickups), after you
                      have destroyed the circular light there will be a big hole on the ground, now throw yourself to the lava looking
                      100% down, as soon as you enter the next room activate the force field (remember to be looking 100% down), this
                      will make the force field act like a platform underneath you, now simply jump to the hole on the wall.

   -AFIN-Map03-LongWayAround:

        -If you use the Cloak, or by other means, you can skip the citadel portion of the map without having to fight the Skaarj, unless
         you are playing on Unreal difficulty :(
        -If you somehow still have the Asbestos Suit, don't jump to the lava or you will get stuck....
        -When you are playing Coop there is only one Scuba Gear, a player can do the underwater trip without losing health because of
         drowning, as long as you don't screw around.
        -When playing any difficulty except Easy there are snipers in the area after the underwater trip, if you use the Cloak smartly
         you can avoid fighting them altogether.
        -In the final fight there is a pool of water that regenerates your health. Also there is an armor that can be collected by dodging
         into the surface of the structure that has the item. Don't tell me you disable dodging >:(
        -This map has 7 secret pickups:
                  1) Super Health: Where Vulnere's statue used to be, you can get there by pushing the barrel next to the housebarn, and
                     then jump to the statue and finally jump to the item.
                  2) Cloak: Next to the top of the fortress.
                  3) Kevlar Suit: At the top of the belltower.
                  4) Shield Belt: Inside the cavern with the Scuba Gear there is a hole in a wall, shoot it until the wall collapses.
                  5) Ammo stash: During the underwater trip you will find a “Pirates of Nali Land” poster, destroy it.
                  6) ASMD, Amplifier and Power Shield: Find and destroy all eight Skaarj Queen toys scattered thought the map. 
                     Read the secret message in map 1 for their locations.
                  7) Super Health: In the final fight room, use the Cloak to get it, if you still have it....
