Paintball Playing Techniques in Developing a Good Game

By Ferry Suwantoro

Paintball is an exciting game, but unless you know the right techniques in playing the game you can never win the battle.

The Concept

Paintball is a kind of stimulation game in which the players are engaged in a battle. Using paintball guns or markers loaded with “gelatin capsules filled with paint,” every player will try to eliminate his opponents. Once the player is hit by the paintball marker, he is automatically removed from the game; therefore, he can no longer participate.

The Playing Techniques

Since paintball is focused on letting an individual or a team obtain an advantage over the other players, it is important to know some of the playing techniques that will enable the player to succeed in winning the game.

Like any stimulation or war games, techniques are important in establishing the right position, the right plan, and the right approach in order to win the game.

Here is a list of some of the playing techniques that every player must know:

1. Invisibility

The important technique when playing paintball is to remain invisible to his opponents, the more chances he will have of winning the game.

The main concepts of invisibility are: a) motivate the players to play well in the game because they feel good when they are invisible; b) achieve the goal of winning the game because an invisible player is a “tough target” to catch spot ; and c) invisibility initiates comradeship among teammates.

The longer the player invisible, the longer they can stay in the game.

2. Vision

It is also important to obtain tools and devices that would mislead the other players by letting them believe that they have spotted their opponent, but in reality, it was just a ploy.

3. Development

Try to employ movements that would initiate security and clearance from other players that lurk in the area.

Paintball Playing Tips to Win The Battle

By Ferry Suwantoro

According to the 2005 statistics of Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association International, paintball ranks third, next to inline skating and skateboarding.

In order to win the game, the player would most likely try to obtain all of the possible pointers and suggestions available just to achieve their goal.

Here is a list of some tips to play the game well and prevail in the battle:

1. Establish an optimistic approach

Paintball is, basically, a war game, where players can either win or loose; so there are instances where things may not always conform to the plans of the players. For instance, if a player was not able to win the game, he must accept the fact and identify the areas where he failed to perform, which contributed to his failure.

2. Learn by experience

Every failure is a learning experience: view it constructively as a learning experience.

3. Never play solo

In order to win the battle, it is better for a player to play on a team rather than playing solo.

4. Do not hide forever

If you are trying to win the game by avoiding being seen and hit by your opponents, you will also have fewer chances of hitting the opponents. You will never learn the correct strategies needed to win the game unless you come out in the open and take action.

5. Never surrender

It is best not to surrender even if the odds of winning the game are probably higher. Winning a paintball game is not so much about how you stay in the game but about how you played the game.
