I'm no expert, but when I used to go in high school, you could shoot people multiple times in the shoulders or gun and rack up the points as opposed to just shooting them in the back or chest once and deactivating them for a few seconds. If someone shoots you in the gun/shoulder, get around a corner quick.

Also, if there is some way to get a bunch of points by shooting the enemy base or whatever, be sure to do that.

walk with your gun close to your chest.
walk with either shoulder facing forward.
walk with your back to a wall.
walk with one hand covering the shoulder thats facing back.
If you do everything right, the only way they could hit you is your shoulder.

kneel down and camp :D

It really depends on where you're going, if you go to a serious place with lots of teenagers/adults, then it could be a lot of fun and what people have suggested would work fine it seems. But I've played before and ended up with a lot of little kids running around, and not only does it change your strategy because they go out guns a blazing all the time, but it also makes it no fun at all. Hope you get with some good people. :)

He has the right idea ! Also, cover the speaker with your hand, you can go stealth and no one will hear you shooting ! Don't wear white or light colored close shoes etc. Run, even though they say not to... If you like it then try Paintballing, its the serious version of LazerTag !!!
