info found at N4G

1. Stab, stab, stab! When? Every time you get stabbed, it should have been you doing the honors.

2. You are vulnerable while calling an air strike. Hide.

3. Your own air strike can kill you.

4. Don't waste your air strike blindly. Aim it properly.

5. Notice the enemy's air strike direction in your radar and avoid it by running away or indoors.

6. ACOG is actually bad for head-shots due to constant swing.

7. You will level up to 55 multiple of times eventually. Chill.

8. Ignore all challenges initially aside from all the Marksman challenges for all weapons except sniper rifles (because it takes a while for those guns) for massive points. When completed (along with unintentional other challenges on the way), you'll be at around level 45. Then go for specific ones.

9. Looking for XP? Headquarters is one of the modes you should play.

10. Get Cruelty challenge easily from Cage Mach mode.

11. For 'get X number of kills with ...' challenges, use high concentration locations in modes such as Domination and Headquarters.

12. To get Airborne challenge, sit in the corner right next to the single palm tree in Blackout close to the North-Easter edge of the map where there is a small empty square area with two exits. You need to be sitting for it to work and the game will think you are in mid air. You'll see your aiming widen to show you are doing right.

13. The helicopter has a very systematic behavior. Take note when using or going against one.

14. Use your helicopter to locate enemy.

15. Run to a mounted gun to destroy an enemy helicopter as soon as it appears.

16. Watch kill-cam for hints, tips and suggestions such as perk loads, camping locations, clever claymore planting and good grenade tosses.

17. Know the limitations of your weapon. Don't play a losing round of Chicken.

18. Take advantage of auto weapon loads instead of wasting custom ones for a slight difference of a barely used weapon type.

19. Want something done, do it yourself; snipe a camper and shoot down a chopper with an LMG yourself.

20. In free for all; when two players are shooting each other in close range wait till one kills another then go for the kill- unless you are sure you can take down both.

21. Don't reload immediately after each kill. Different weapons have different mag loads. Take note.

22. Don't play in a room with a red connection.

23. Hear a frag drop but no location indicator shows up in the HUD? Don't move!

24. Claymore click: run like hell! Train your reflexes to automatically react that way- just like 'surprise stabbing'.

25. Iron sight/scope aiming slows gun movement. Exit, move your gun, then aim again.

26. Increase control sensitivity from the options gradually.

27. Getting shot from behind? Don't turn around; run around a corner.

28. Close but out of stabbing reach? Point gun and shoot without aiming.

29. Find a low-life cheater glitch-camping behind surface layer? Avoid him unless he can actually be killed. If so, do us all a favor by shooting him in the face and shouting his name on the mic to warn others and make more people hate him. God I hate those.

30. Report cheaters like that and the ones that are flying everywhere! For PS3 gamers, use this link.

31. This is My house! For a large body count select an are and protect it in free for all or team deathmatch.

32. Out of ammo and close to an enemy? Don't reload: switch to your secondary weapon.

33. Respawn quickly in Headquarters in case your team captures the area then you'd have to wait your turn.

34. Throw a flash/stung grenade, then a frag.

35. Killed by an air strike? enjoy the kill-cam till it ends, then respawn.

36. Don't have a UAV jammer or silencer? don't stay put.

37. Use the perk Bomb Squad for easier bomb related challenges. But note that Bomb Squad doesn't work in Free For All if the bomb planter is from the same army as you! Programming mishap.

38. Keep exiting a map you don't like or a bad room connection only to keep getting back in over and over in the mode you want? Quickly enter and exit another mode then try again.

39. Hate the kill-cam for giving out your camping position? Play Hardcore modes. Otherwise, keep your scope sight aimed or look at a close surface or the sky immediately after a kill for a couple of seconds to make it harder for your target to make it out.

40. Muting everyone in the room doesn't give you a better connection. The audio still goes through just not all the way to your speakers.

41. Call your helicopter after you die if you want its kills to count twards a new UAV, airstrike and another helicopter.

A good series of tips! I had to die plenty of times before picking most of these up myself, so hopefully any Wii newbies will look them over.

Wait?...how can you give tips already?
this is for 360 version surely.
the Wii one could be very different...lol

Exactly, like any of these will have any relevance when the stupid and pointless and ugly Wii version arrives. Ug!

I didn't mean it like that.
besides all of you are critising a game we haven't even seen any screenshots let alone some info.
Just wait for some screen shots and we'll see.

true lol lets hope for the best

Copy and pasted tips from an article you found off N4G and trying to get credit.....tsk tsk.

Anyway, these tips aren't all that good. They are more "Basic Knowledge for Beginners" rather than tips. Here's a real tip:

Don't ruin this game with overuse of Martyrdom, Super-balanced Death Rays (M16), and n00b tubes (grenade launchers)

DID I EVER SAY I WROTE THIS? NO...... I MERELY POSTED IT. THANK YOU

Hey, now, the M16 is still less game wrecking than most of the sniper rifles. And Matyrdom is too damn fun not to use in Domination.

At least give the site credit OP.
