- Don't spread yourself thin. Pick two skill trees and specialize in them, except for the aforementioned quality of life skills.

- Call out specials with the shout button whenever you can. Especially if you do not use a microphone.
- Familiarize yourself with each special unit's sounds. Cloakers in particular. The sound you hear when they are very close was changed a while back and it is easily drowned out by gunfire.
- It is okay to disengage in a bad situation. Even if it is a single bulldozer that you are not equipped to handle easily. Call it out and stick with your team.
- It is also okay to NOT try and revive someone who has been downed in a terrible place. If you do, thin the enemy near your teammate as much as possible before attempting to get him up.
- Related to the above, all players now have the ability to dominate enemies without spending any skill points. An easy way to get a great boost to your domination chance is to knock the dude down.
- ALWAYS shoot snipers. Pubbies have something against killing them, resulting in a pile of downed players.
- Headshots at every opportunity.
- For anyone just starting out, choose one perk deck and stick with it until you max it. All decks have some incredibly useful skills in common, including increased ammo pickup and 45% more experience gained. Crew Chief, Armorer and Muscle are all solid and do not require DLC.

- When doing a stealth Bank Heist, or in Firestarter day 3, shoot the tellers and guard the panic button in the back hall with extreme prejudice. ECMs don't turn these off, and civilians can and will go right for them.
