It's been almost a week since the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, and I've racked up enough kills with my SP-R 208 rifle that I feel like the terminator on a rampage. As we prepare for Warzone 2.0, it's time to check your ammo, load your weapons, turn off the safety and get ready for some multiplayer mayhem. Of course, I wouldn't send you out unprepared for the upcoming onslaught, so in preparation, here are five useful tips and tricks you can use in any multiplayer campaign.

Long-range weapons are your friend. I've talked about camping in the past. The player that waits to ambush their prey and waits to unleash a barrage of bullets from a secret lookout. In a word, snipers. In many of the current maps in Modern Warfare II, long-range weapons thrive, so always be on the lookout for camping snipers and realize that these weapons usually have a shiny glint giving their position away.

Always strafe when shooting. Don't stand still when an enemy is shooting at you!. Make sure your strafe, especially when firing upon enemies. That means to move to the side and keep moving. It'll make you much more likely to dodge any incoming bullets. But it doesn't just end there, don't forget to jump and peek over walls. This is a great way to check your environment before running into the melee.

Run, don't walk. If you didn't know, you can turn on automatic tactical sprint, so your character sprints automatically when moving. This way, You can focus on combat without the need to press other buttons to start running.

Build up your melee skills. It may take a bit of practice, but melee attacks can mean the difference between life and death. When faced with close-combat situations, like when you run into an enemy around a corner, melee can be the most effective way to kill your opponent before they can accurately land some shots in on you.

Stop hoarding equipment. Waiting for the perfect moment to use field upgrades will provide no advantage If you're shot and killed beforehand. In faster-paced matches, you'll likely die before you even get the chance to use them, wasting any opportunities you may have had. So, don't be a hoarder! Use your gear.And those are my tips! May the odds ever be in your favor, except if you're going against me, and I'll see you on the battlefield.
