On CTF I usually carry a Shotgun and the Pistol. Since I'm usually in CQB (Close-Quarters Combat) I use the Shotgun to serve my purposes, the Pistol is my backup for long distance clearing.

Play people that are harder than you alot and you will become tougher, by learning from their tactics.

Trust me it always works!

take advantage of glitches.(gettin outta map, goin through walls, teleporter glitches, etc.)

trick the enemy. leave a guy in their base (this is for ctf, by the way), and have him avoid detection. then, have a main assualt come, and one of three things might happen.
A. best case scenario:ur guys win, and you have an opening to take the flag and have an escort with it.
B. enemy wins, and runs to ur base to get ur flag while all ur guys are dead.
C. enemy wins, and stays at base. plan is screwed.

when playing on legendary with 2 players you can both keep full health all game by going to a safe area and killing the person with low health....
they respawn and they hav full health......
then it would be your turn to die and so on......

always look for cover and if your playin ctf with vechicles then have a ghost nearby(they are fast and you can attack people).

Practice grenading weapons to yourself and learn the frequent spawn points on all boards.

ok, this is probably obvious, but is there a special way to do this?

Just act stupid and panicky- as you're enemy drops their guard as they believe you're not a big threat they'll be open to counterattack....
And always be thinking two steps ahead...a lot of the time you're opponent can lose concentration during a firefight-if you use your brain you can wipe anybody out, regardless of the weapons they carry....

It's all about the ambush. My tactic is Run. Stop. Scan. Repeat. The stop and scan technique is crucial for catching people who got the drop on you and are trying to follow you, and to get off other peoples motion trackers and see where they are. If you see someone, wait till they get closer, than ambush them.
