Here is some multiplayer squad tactical advice provided by Infinity Ward.
Nobody Makes It Alone
Success in Call of Duty(TM) relies on a well-coordinated and
cooperative squad. Your squadmates help fight the enemy by providing
covering fire and helping eliminate threats. Above all, listen to
your squad leader! Do exactly what he says and you'll stay alive.
Know When to Be the Hero
The soldier who runs into the thick of battle guns ablazing often
winds up dead. Although you'll often be called upon to make split-second decisions, a levelheaded and patient warrior is the one
who returns home to his family. Remember that a deadly threat could
be looming behind any corner, wall, window or rock. Stay alert, move
deliberately and don't try anything stupid.
Use Cover
Every battlefield environment you encounter will have a range of
availble locations to keep out of sight and out of the path of wizzing bullets. Crouch and crawl behind solid cover as much as
possible; you never know when new threats will spot you, and be
confident that Gerry will not hesitate to shoot you down in your
tracks.
Stay Mobile
Think you found a good spot of cover? That may change in a matter of
seconds. Although pausing to regroup, assess threats, reload
weapons or replenish health is always a necessary, dont stay in one
location for too long. You never know when the enemy may discover
you and compromise what you thought was a safe location. If you hear
artillery or mortar fire in the distance, by all means stay mobile.
You may not survive if a stray shell lands near you (aka grenades in multiplayer).
Be Thorough
Clear building and combat areas with a meticulous and thorough
search. Enemies may lie in silence, waiting for you or your squad to let
your guard down.
Reloading
Always reload your weapon after a firefight. This enables you to be
as prepared as possible for the next engagement you face. Another
enemy could be just around the corner, and entering a conflict with
low or no ammunition in your weapon could cost you your life.
Leaning
When progressing through combat areas, use the Lean commands (Q and E by default) to
enable you to peer around walls, doors, windows or other obstacles.
You'll be harder to see and harder to shoot should enemies be on the
other side. You can also lean around obsticles to fire on the enemy,
getting the jump on your targets and suppressing threats as quickly
and safely as possible.
Stance
Be mindful of your stance at all times. Soldiers that walk tall on
the battlefield often ind themselves coming home in a box. Crouching
and lying prone keeps your profile low, making you harder to see,
and more importantly, harder to shoot.
