Dr_Doom Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 My tip would be to wear a couple of layers of clothing then it doesn't hurt as much. Thick jumper etc... When we went last summer a mate of mine was only wearing a thin shirt and quite a few of the close up shots drew blood! Awesome fun though!!

R Black Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Paint balling is great fun, but as said above wear a few layers, i would say being hit by a paintball would be similar to getting hit by a squash ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miko_supra Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 paint balling is fantastic! i went to a big one near Birmingham years back. i had been before but most of the guys playing weren't all kids and were all very good...20-30 a side... i had never been so terrified in my life, you would stick your head up for a second and hail of paint balls would come flying at you. at one point 5 of us were stuck in a bunker. it was smoke bombed so we couldn't see anything and then the other team all shot at us through the windows...at this point i realized i would be shite in the army cant wait to do it again!!

supra steveo Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 how much it hurts lol hell yeah! you will not be laughing when it hits you a few years back i took out an entire team minus one what happened was they had formed a line and me and a mate were on the extreme right of the area, so while i was keeping his head down with loads of paint my mate assaulted the position, i then went round where he had been and totally flanked the whole team, and to make sure i wasn't going to get the ouch that hurt have one back effect i hit them all about 6 times rapid fire, made me laugh they all just let go of the gun and were rolling round on the floor (lets put it this way it was near point blank range )but we had a great day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I love going with work. Normaly take my mate and the site they use let you use your own kit, we had one game where it was just me and my mate in a village and 15 of my work mates had to take us out. The site guns were so crap it was like watching the SAS against kids with AK's. Managed to take down 6 of them my mate cleaned the rest out (he is bloody good and been doing it for 4 years) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Matt, my shooting wasn't too bad, we where allowed to do head shots it was great If the gun got shot the blokes there didn't care so allowed you to keep playing too I got shot right in the face when I looked round a tree great stuff! We did like capture the flag etc, deffo would do it again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
