Don't continually try and try again with no preparation, you have to unlock a few items before you can go for the mega combos and such. Also, do not be afraid, EVER, to go for the cheatsy ways to an achievement. As I write this, I am in the process of getting the 'bank 20k gold' achievement by getting 'Life Savings' and sitting around for an hour or so to let the money build up. I'm not fussed really that when I get to the next stage I'll die immediately because the difficulty has just been ramped up. I have unlocked more stuff to make the next attempts easier.

Also, talking about when you are actually in-game, the commando is great at running away. If there is a long platform with many enemies on it, the way I have found to work is grab their attention and run away with the occassional FMJ followed by a roll past the crowd. Same applies for bosses who massively increase spawnrate it seems.
