If you don't already have your badge you won't be able to get in. As for some tips, it depends on what you're most into

Dont have a badge, just found out I was going to San Diego in those dates. Is there reselling on the streets?

There might be some, but be careful as I'm sure there's some scammers out there selling bogus badges.

Even if you don't get in, take a shuttle into the area and walk around while enjoying some of the amazing cosplayers.

Bring a few bottles of water. Theyll be people selling tickets. Best idea would be to find/follow the mobs of people as they come and work

I just checked Stub Hub and they said they are not allowing tickets to be sold for this event because they are not transferable. So I woulde

Website says they added RFID chips to badges that you have to periodically scan to get in and out of areas- must show photo id if problem

yeah...the difficulty in getting badges plus the even-more-insane-than-before-lines have discouraged me & my wife from going back...for now

I went back last year for a panel after skipping 4 years in a row. Nothing has changed & its impossible to get into Hall H for the big stuff

I would suggest that while you're there, buy tickets for the Comic Con ... in 2018. You might get lucky.
