i went paintballing for my first time last night, and it was amazing. i got hit in the head a few times which stung but it was really fun all the same. I was wondering on how to become more aggresive. i kind of thought of myself as scared to get into the action sometimes. What i mean is i was on my knees upstaris sniping, but was too scared to go out into the open downstairs and look for people.On other games, i was fearless and did i, but on some i was scared for some reason. i was wondering if anyone has any advice for me on how to become better and maybe overcome this fear and how to be a better shooter and how to hide better and all
thanks

I've learned how to play paintball by playing shooter games. It just takes time you will develop skill from learning experiences. Also get to know the lay of the land before you play.

It helps if you stay with a teammate or teammates so you guys can tell each other where people are, where to find, to cover them, etc.

Go all out. Don't climb tree. Dive, don't shoot randomly. Don't be a wuss, and don't be a afraid to get him, BUT don't TRY to get hit. I play shooters, and that
s how I practice. I also play alot, so you usually get ecperience from playing alot.

One thing, don't be afraid to get hit. I know many people that suck at paintball just because they are afraid to get hit.

Or it's how many paintballs can I fire per second with my shiny new Ion. :flamed:
Seriously though, I do prefer woodsball and you'll get more aggresive in time. Don't be too aggresive and charge blindly, but you don't to be a stick in the mud because that won't do your team any good. Also, try to become closer with your teammates. That way, you know someone has got your back.
