Hints

All Ghillied Up: Dog attack

During the "All Ghillied Up" mission, you will come across a wild dog eating a dead soldier's remains. You will be told to leave it alone, but if you want probably the most difficult challenge in the game, shoot it. You will be attacked by a large pack of angry dogs.

In the mission when you play Cpt. Price, you will encounter a wild dog eating a man. You are told to leave it alone, but if you kill it you will hear dogs growling. You are then attacked by a large pack of them. This is the best way to practice your dog killing skills, but be warned. You must save your comrade, because if he dies you must start over again.

Ambush: Sniping locations

When playing the Marine's side (wooden shacks and the field), in the back building with the turret there is a dumpster besides it, against a ground window. Crouch and sit inside the building behind the dumpster. You can snipe out of the window down the side alley. Also in the back building, go up the stairs and turn left. There is a table beside the stairs. Climb onto the table then onto the railing (banister). This may take a few attempts. Jump across the stairs onto the gray ledge with the fencing. From here you can snipe the entrance to the field and the big concrete building on your side.
HoExMISSED SHOT/me, HoExUNREAL SHOT, HoExINSANE SHOT, and

When playing on the OpFor/Spetznas side (the destroyed concrete buildings), as soon as you start go straight to the hole in the ground. Directly in front of it should be two roadblocks. Go prone (lie down) and look between them. From here you can snipe across the street to the opposite concrete building (helicopters can see you).
HoExMISSED SHOT/me, HoExUNREAL SHOT, HoExINSANE SHOT, and

When playing on the OpFor/Spetznas side, go down the street and up the stairs on the left. There is a sheet metal ledge that you can stand on. Stand on the edge of the sheet metal and look to the left (back to your spawn point). You can see an opening in the side of the building. Sprint jump off the end into the side of the building. This may require a few attempts.
HoExMISSED SHOT/me, HoExUNREAL SHOT, HoExINSANE SHOT, and

Backlot: Sniping locations

On the Marines side of "Flag B" is sheet metal guarding the top of a building. Climb the ladder to get to the top. To stand on the sheet metal itself, climb onto a ledge and slowly go back and forth until you see the "Climb" option. Make your way to the ledge besides the building overlooking the tiny enclosure. You will see a white radiator. Jump into it. There are little knobs sticking out of the buildings that look like this.

_______________________________________

Radiator>[l]         l        l        l        l <Knobs, ^Building

Cautiously jump on each knob until you can jump onto a balcony. From here you can snipe 180 degrees from the destroyed building to the construction building.
HoExMISSED SHOT/me, HoExUNREAL SHOT, HoExINSANE SHOT, and

Crash: Sniping location

On the Marine/S.A.S side, climb up the ladder to the building with the sandbags on it. Jump onto the lamp post. Sprint jump at the blue radiator on the roof beside you. Keep tapping X  PlayStation3  or A  Xbox 360  you will get on the roof.
HoExMISSED SHOT/me, HoExUNREAL SHOT, HoExINSANE SHOT, and

On the OpFor/Spetznas side, countersnipe the three story building. Go into the building beside your spawn point. Go onto the brown balcony. Looking across the street into the garage, go left on the balcony to the edge. Stand on the railing and look directly in between the two buildings. You should be able to see most of the three story building's roof.
HoExMISSED SHOT/me, HoExUNREAL SHOT, HoExINSANE SHOT, and

Creek: Sniping location

On the Marine/S.A.S side, for defensive sniping go into the barn. In one corner are some pallets (wooden boards). Climb them onto a ledge that goes around the barn. There are many gaps in the wall that you can snipe from. Note: Helicopters can see you.
HoExMISSED SHOT/me, HoExUNREAL SHOT, HoExINSANE SHOT, and

At the bottom of the hill, go across the creek. There is a rock with grass on it sheltered by two boulders. Wear a Ghilly suit and snipe from it. You can snipe the entire cliff ledge.
HoExMISSED SHOT/me, HoExUNREAL SHOT, HoExINSANE SHOT, and

Crew Expendable: Desert Eagle

In the second large containment room, run ahead of your team. There are two enemies with Desert Eagles who will try to surprise you around two corners, depending on the path you take.

Crossfire: Sniping location

The online Crossfire map has a very good sniping location. The spot can only be reached when you are playing the old school free 4 all section. Notice the building at the very end of the map on the opposite side of the bus. You can get to the very top of the building that is around the corner. First, get to the second story where the chair is found. Get on the top of the chair facing the wall and jump. You may have to run and jump, but eventually you will catch an edge. You can then work your way up to the perfect sniping position.

On the Marine's side (top of the hill), go into the sniping building (the back building that everyone goes to). Go to the very end. Climb up the ladder, and at the top, stop, turn around, and there will be two blue balconies. Sprint jump onto one. You can climb into either of them. From here you can snipe nearly all of the right-hand side.
HoExMISSED SHOT/me, HoExUNREAL SHOT, HoExINSANE SHOT, and

On the OpFor/Spetznas side (bottom of the hill), get to the top of the three story building in Normal mode. You will need RPGs. Go to the second floor and climb onto the chair. Jump slightly to the left against the wall to get onto the ledge. Sprint jump onto the third floor. This is difficult to do. Stand on top of the slanted piece of roof, but in the middle of it. A tiny chunk is missing. Take out an RPG and aim down into the street. At the same time while holding LB  Xbox 360  , aim, jump, backwards and shoot. If done correctly you will be on top of the three story building. Note: Helicopters can see you.
HoExMISSED SHOT/me, HoExUNREAL SHOT, HoExINSANE SHOT, and

In the destroyed Bistro at the bottom of the hill, stand on the counter (ground floor). You can look out in between the wall and the roof. From here you can snipe the Marine's buildings.
HoExMISSED SHOT/me, HoExUNREAL SHOT, HoExINSANE SHOT, and

Death From Above: Easy points

In Arcade mode you can score easy points by shooting the building with the 105mm or the 40mm. When the building is destroyed you will get 1,000 points.

F.N.G.: Obstacle course

When Gaz tells you to go to Captain Price, walk out of the building and move towards the fence. Follow the fence. On the left are three men in a crouch. Walk past them to find an obstacle course. You can run it for fun.

Game Over: SSgt. Griggs's "Success!" comment

Killing all three RPG enemies in the pursuing trucks in Game Over results in SSgt. Griggs saying "Success!"

Mile High Club: Airplane reference

In the "Mile High Club" level, during the opening sequence when a hole is being cut to drop into the plane, somebody says, "Surely you can't be serious". Captain Price then says, "I'm serious, and don't call me Shirley". This is a line from the movie Airplane.

One Shot, One Kill: Canine help

When you are on the mission where you have to carry your captain (when you are in the Ghillie Suits),you will find abandoned swimming pool with some rabid dogs at the bottom. Do not kill them. Just run around the edge and do not fall in. When you drop your captain off behind the Ferris wheel and both of you get into position, there will be a patrol after you. When your captain tells you to open fire with your sniper rifle, shoot anyone on the left side, closest to the building with the pool in it. Everyone will hit the deck after one of their teammates dies. The dogs will sense danger, jump out of the window, and start attacking the soldiers. This is helpful as at least four or five of the soldiers die. This also saves ammunition.

Multi-player: Headshots

When you kill another player with a headshot, a metal "ping" sound will play to confirm it.

Multi-player: Extra ammunition

At level 38 in Multi-player mode, you get the Overkill perk (located in the Perk 2 or red perks). This allows you to carry two primary weapons rather than a pistol. Some of the guns in online play can share ammunition. If you are a skilled sniper and prefer the bolt action to a semi-auto sniper, you can share ammo between the R700 (unlocked at level 34) and the G3 assault rifle (unlocked at level 25). Instead of having 40 rounds you will have 152 rounds for the sniper, effectively giving you an endless supply of ammo for the R700. If you are a G3 user, you will gain an extra 40 rounds (two clips). This works both ways. Because you share ammunition, you might not want to get too trigger happy with the G3. Also, there are more than just this combination. Experiment with different guns to see which can share ammo.

When you reach level 46 you will get the M14 assault rifle and you will have the M21 sniper. In the class that you want to have the extra ammo you will need have the M21 and M14 as a weapon. To have those two weapons you must have Overkill (obtained at level 38). You also must have your second perk on Overkill. For the other two perks you can have whatever desired.

Create an MP5 class. For your side arm, choose the M9. Because the MP5 and M9 share ammo you will have 90 rounds of ammo instead of 60. This is a good trick if you prestiged and have lost your Bandolier perk. When you reach level 32, enable Bandolier in this class and you will get 270 rounds of ammo instead of 180.

Easy experience

To level up quicker than usual, try to use the same gun until all the marksman and elite challenges are completed. They provide huge boosts and will quickly level you up to get new guns. However, do not use those guns yet. Just keep on the challenge until it has completed. The third phase of the challenge usually ends with 1,000 experience points and that will bump you up a rank almost in itself. Also, do not forget about the strange challenges like jumping 15 feet and surviving or falling 30 feet to your death. To get that one if not previously unlocked play the "Countdown" map and jump into one of the open missile silos. You will get instant experience points for simply dying. Also, remember to go prone and crouch to get those challenges as well.

To level up, gain points, and to complete challenges easily, find a TDM game of the map "Shipment", preferably with a lot of people. Make sure you have the Steady Aim/Martyrdom/Stopping Power perks on and choose a gun you want to level up. Shipment is a very small close shoulder-to-shoulder map. Just run around holding down the trigger, taking down as many people as possible. This is very fast paced and you should tick points very quickly.

Playing games such as Sabotage and Ground War will give you lots of experience points because both games offer many kills. Sabotage has a long clock, giving you the opportunity to get many kills or challenges. Also, look for Sabotage on the Wetworks map. That map takes a lot of time up.

 Xbox 360  Search for a Cage Match game until you become the host and no one else is in the room except yourself. Then, invite a friend so he joins. Start the match and it will be just you and your friend. You can get challenges and rank up easily.

Better accuracy

Once you get the Red Dot Scope addon to your weapons, use it over the ACOG scope. The red dot will not enhance or take away anything and provides a better aimpoint on most weapons. The ACOG scope will actually add more range to your weapon, but take away accuracy which accomplishes almost nothing; especially so for snipers because it takes away range and adds nothing.

Faster reloads

Use the following trick if you are playing online or in Carrier mode. When your gun runs out of ammo you usually have to re-load, then cock your weapon. Note: This does not include RPGs, and rifle mounted grenade launchers. This trick makes it so you do not have to cock your gun after re-loading. When you run out of ammo, let your character reload, then quickly sprint forwards a short distance. Stop sprinting and return your gun to the firing position. It will be ready to fire without re-cocking.

Special grenades

Flashbang

Pros: Blinds target, deafens and slows.

Cons: Must be looking at grenade or in its direction to have any effect.

Stun

Pros: Deafens, slows and does a little damage to target even if detonated behind.

Cons: Target can still see where he or she is shooting.

Smoke

Pros: Can temporarily provide cover for getaways, relocation and traps (for example, throw a smoke grenade into a room and plant a claymore in the doorway, then throw a grenade inside to flush him out).

Sniping

If a target is moving make sure to lead it. If you are not making shots try to lead your target more. Also, if you are a skilled sniper try using the M40A3 over the M21. It has a slower reload time and rate of fire, but it has enough damage to kill a target in one shot instead of two or three. It also allows you to be less noticeable with less rounds being fired; so someone else cannot follow the tracer shot back to you.

Suicide bombing

Hold [Grenade], run around, and watch the show. This is sometimes useful in multi-player modes to take out enemies.

Glitches

All Ghillied Up: Easy Intel Pieces

Go to the location of the first Intel Piece, located at the top of the ladder in the first church. Get the Intel Piece and fall back down. You will die and start out getting the Intel Piece again. The Intel Piece keeps adding to the total number that you have. Repeat this process until you have 30 Intel Pieces.

Crash: Good sniping position

Note: You can do this only in multi-player matches. Go to a multi-player match at the "Crash" map. Make sure it is an Old School match. Go to the location of the helicopter crash. There is a very tall building that should be easy to identify. Climb all the way to the top of the roof. Get up onto the blue box-like "vents". Look over at the little open door where you came out of (if you went through the building, and not up the ladder). Sprint for a brief moment, then jump onto the top of that little roof object. If done properly, you should land on the roof. Jump over onto the fenced part. This is easy because the boundaries are set there, so you cannot fall off. Carefully walk up on the fence where you see a somewhat shorter building. Sprint, then jump. If done properly, you should have landed on a roof with a satellite dish. This roof has a great view over the crash and the people will have no idea where you are. This is a great spot for sniping or heavy gunning. It is probably not as useful when using SMGs.

Televisions never go off

When throwing regular and/or flash grenades at televisions that are on, they will at times still keep working even though they have been blown up.

Crossfire: Sniping location

Play the old school free 4 all section. Note the building at the very end of the map on the opposite side of the bus. Get to the very top of the building that is around the corner. Do to so, first get to the second story where the chair is found. Get on the top of the chair facing the wall and jump. You may have to run and jump, but eventually you will catch an edge. You can then work your way up to the position. Once there, go to your right. Then, jump up onto the object just past the building that you are currently on. Walk around the building, trying to stay as close to it as possible. Then, look down. Make sure you are directly above the barbed wire. Follow that until you get to the building, then jump onto it. Then, just walk across to the other building. Note: You will be floating in air. When you get there, go to the extreme left of the building. Jump and you will notice a glitch -- you are on an invisible object. Once you get there, jump again to get on top of the building. Then, go backwards but do not go off the building. Run and jump just when you get to the front edge. You will now be floating in the air. When you are almost on the fence below, you will fall. When you fall, walk directly along with the fence or else you will fall. You can just crouch and shoot people.

Have three guns

To do this trick you must have the Overkill (level 38), and the Last Stand (level 8) perks enabled. The Overkill perk should give you two primary weapons of your choice. Play a game and use this class. When you are put into Last Stand, you will get an M9. You cannot choose the pistol you want. Note: You can only use the M9 when you are in Last Stand.

Three perks

When you choose an attachment for a weapon it takes up the first perk. To stop this, select your perks then choose your weapons and attachment. You will then have three perks and a weapon attachment.
