[QUOTE=veribigbos1;23227048] "do you get bruises from the balls,"[/QUOTE]
Well I don't.
[QUOTE=Raneman;23228303]I've been wondering- I've been interested in paintball/airsoft. What's the best way to find games locally?[/QUOTE]
Friends :pseudo:
Oh wait v:v:v
[QUOTE=Mokkan13;23226705]So my friend is turning 16 tomorrow and we're going to play paintball, So I have some questions about what I should expect.
[LIST=1]
[*]What should I wear? Anything in particular?
[*]How many paint balls should I buy? My friends brother, who has played once previously ,suggested 1000, but knowing him I think he'd be a bit trigger happy going by his personality.
[*]Will I get bruised like some people have said I will?
[*]Does it hurt when the paintballs hit you? I know I'll feel it, but will I be in much pain?
[*]Any tips for playing?
[*]Is air soft the same thing as paintball?
[/LIST]
Any serious answers much appreciated :smile:[/QUOTE]
1) Wear long sleeves and a jacket ( the adrenaline will keep you from getting hot)
2) Just buy 1000 it will last you all day if you aren't trigger happy.
3) Yes you will. Unless you're a pussy.
4) It depends where you get hit, the pain is sharp at first but goes away in like 15 seconds then it becomes dull so it's not so bad.
5) Don't be a rushing idiot if you have a crappy rental gun, but don't be a pussy and sit in the very back cover.
6) Hell no. Airsoft BB's feel like someone poking you very lightly with a twig.

1.Wear a long shirt , full face mask and jacket if your scared to get hit.
2.If your not trigger happy like I am , buy about 300
3. Short Range is about 20-35 ft and if u get hit somewhere it's a sharp pain...Now if its about 40-60 ft then its like somebody pokes you with a pencil.
4.Scale of 1 to 10 it's about a 4 if you aren't a weakling.
5.Don't camp...Don't runthrew (If you do a runthrew you'll be a main target) , Don't cuss out the other team (not your team either) and don't cuss out the ref's.
6.Not anywhere near close.
Ghillie suits.
