Have a laugh I'm guessing its a party thing so you'll rent all the equipment, just wear comfy clothes/footwear and try not to get hit lol Its a buzz.

Head over to Uk scenario, you'll get some good advice there

[sickpup]

Use live ammo.

[CaNsA]

NIFO,

It's the only way to be sure.

[DRZ4Hunned]

Aim for the back of the head, but don't let the staff see. And beware of people pretending to be out, pretending to walk off and then sneak up and ambush you from behind.

[Robster]

wear a chest pad if they have em... I found out the hard way I needed one, shot right in my solar plexus, knocked the wind right out of me!

[nick606]

Do at least one suicidal run. If your not covered in bruises at the end of the day your doing it wrong.

I should be going again in a month or so. Me and two friends all went this time last year. Over the summer on of the pair got a job there so now gets to play for free and gets mates rates on ammo..... to the tune of 2000 balls for 20 quid.

It's gonna be awesome

Do not wear the gay chest armour. Its paintballing ffs.

You will get hit, it will sting. If you play as a team you'll a lot better. I played once with a load of timid people on my team, needless to say we lost.

Paintballing war stories?

Last time I went the main part of the day was split into 4 groups. blue vs red, brown vs green who fought all day. Then for the final event the whole lot was split into 3 groups. One small group with the best 3/4 players from each of the 4 groups and the rest split in half. Naturally I was on the operational operator small group.

We then walked out into one of the areas, where it became apparent that the small group had to defend a severed hand, against both of the other teams trying to capture it from each side. Last round so you only go out when you've run out of paint or simply had enough of a beating.

I didn't get off to a good start, the marshalls had laid out a load of spare guns on the castle as they knew by the end of the day there was a reasonable chance some would conk out. Within 15 seconds of the game starting my gun jammed up and I got shot to shit running over to swap it for another one.

It was glorious! Hunkered down behind a bank being shot in the back from team A, then when you turn round to give them some grief team B lights you up. Pretty much the only thing to do was just constantly emit a stream of foul language and keep pulling the trigger. One particularly memorable bit was when some kid (probably about 12 or so) wearing the "birthday boy" target across his chest popped up pretty close. Me and the guy next to me shared a quick glance before lighting him up like a christmas tree. He lasted a few seconds of bombardment before his arm came up and he started shouting "I'm out! I'm out!". Tears may have been shed. God knows how many times I got hit, the appropriate response seems to be Fuck! or Cunt! and keep squeezing the trigger.

Take loads of kitchen roll with you to wipe the visor. Pain in the arse when they keep fogging and you can't see anything for shit.

If you get into it, invest in your own mask with double lens. They work the same as pinlock. The best investment I made when I played.
