Question Useful tips for us newbies

After a year of playing 2142, I've finally got bored and decided to give COD4 a go. I looked on the forums hoping to find a Tips and tricks for noobs section like in the bf2142 s section and there isn't one?? I was just wondering if any of you pro's could help out a new starter like myself and many others with your experience?
Thanks in advance!

Your knife is an essential tool. Assign it to an easy to use key/button for quick strikes, just remember if you miss you will need a bit of time to reset before you can swing again.

Learn the different uses for each weapon type. Pistols do wonders.

Learn the different classes and their strengths such as speed, silence, camo, durability, and accuracy.

Perks are you life blood. Use them well and wisely. With certain set-ups your gun can penetrate most any surface. With other set-ups you can take a headshot from a sniper rifle and live.
Use the nube toob excessively, be accused of being a noob.

Cheers guys, after a few days of playing I'm getting used to the game and have come top quite a few times! I'm amazed at how powerful the pistols are compared to bf2142 and I've had lots of fun with the LMG's and the extra penetration perk :P
Just one more thing though, does anyone else find that you join a server, but when it loads up its a different map/ type of match/ only has about 4 players? I understand it could be down to joining just as the map is changing, but it seems to be happening way too often.
Thanks again!

Your pc displays the last server status it knew from the last time you refreshed the servers. Do either a full or quick refrsh to get updated info.
