-Don't jump if you don't need to
-Dodge as much as possible
-Watch out for spiders on levels that have them
-But, you can get rid of spiders with the goo gun
-In the Hellbender, Press:
1 to drive
2 for shock cannon
3 for lasers
-If you want to change the view in the vehicles press f4 and the view will change
-Standing still while firing shock combos=death
-Jumping and shooting are a no no, Hurts your aim big time if you dont know how to handle it
-aiming just above the torso helps your chance of a head shot
-while playing 1v1 hog the power up's as much as possible whoreing is no option its a must
-spam makes for a predictability almost as bad as jumping excessivly!
-try counting your shots, knowing how much damage a weapon does can make for an easy kill
-if your ping is high try to lead your fire more in front of your enemy (hitscan is your friend in this case)
Red on the soapbox:

I've noticed a growing trend of total cowards and campers, and frankly for me, it ruins the game. There are ways to be good, and there are ways to be CHEAP and win. Wow so you win by item whoring.. is that impressive? Ah.. you camp the top areas and shock combo whore.. wow,
lots of skill there. My tip is to play so you deserve respect. Camping the shield does not make you a better player, and then people will just say "you won because you camped the damn shield, you loser". My style of playing (psycho kamikaze) isn't for everyone, and i'm not saying that you should play that way, but don't be a damn camping coward. I respect people like Prowler, who are VERY good, but also know how to fight a battle, and won't just camp up top. if you corner him, he doesn't run, he kicks your ass. When prowler beats your ass, what can you say to that? "you... camp- wait no.. item who-.. hell uh.. you bastard!". Not much to whine about there..
There are plenty of others like that, and most of you guys are fun and respectable players =) But when i saw that comment, i had to get up on the soapbox as what i consider, standing up for keeping the game fun. Before everyone is coaxed into playing that way.
You can play how you wish, but remember there are skillful ways to win,and there are cheap ways.
Thank you, that is all.
