Going to play paintball for the first time (update)

[Xyclone]

Use cover, and be VERY quick when advancing. Get a teammate to shoot some cover when your moving up the bunkers, and do the same to him. If you see the opportunity to "bunker" someone (look it up), do it. It's the funnest thing you'll ever do.

I only played once but it was some of the best fun I have ever had in a single day, especially in something I had never tried before. I think I would have even more fun playing now!

I wore loose clothing and a cup. Also don't shoot a guy in the neck because he might want to scrap you.

Looks like you're playing speed ball. Stay low and don't be scared to move!

Keep yelling where the other team is. If u run out of paint, keep pretending to fire and yell where they are.

Buy a real mask. Don't be rambo, use cover and suppressive fire to keep advancing.

Instead of thick clothes, get baggy cloths.

I wore a cup the first few times, but it really just slows you down and chafes when running. If you're wearing decently thick pants/underwear, that's usually enough protection to cushion any hits. I do wear gloves and a neck strap, but I pretty much wear short sleeves and even sometimes shorts as it gets hot. Most normal places will have a fps cap so it's not likely that a hit will break skin. Once things get going, you'll probably so pumped with Adrenalin that you won't feel pain from the hits right away or as strongly as normal.

Expect to go through air and ammo fairly fast as you probably won't hit much the first time or two you play.

Try to stay mobile. If you spend all your time huddled in a corner trying not to get hit some guy will flank you.
