Paintball is a competitive action game played all over the globe. Paintballs are soft gelatin capsules filled with colored water. When propelled at the opponents, they explode on hitting the targets leaving the targets dripping with color. You dress up like a soldier and develop a strategy to hit the opponents. You hit the enemy with balls and send the enemy dripping in red color out of the field. For safety, you get a helmet, goggles, armor, gloves, and an efficient gun to propel the balls. A paintball Goa session could cost you approximately INR 850 and it would last from 10-15 minutes.
It is a battlefield out there and you need to walk through all obstructions such as rocky surfaces, barren lands, hills, and bushes to chase and hunt the enemy. Goa has the advantage of the coastal landscape where you have all kinds of hindrances available. Goan paintball clubs promise more adventure and pleasure because of their access to scenic landscapes. When in the field, your objective should be to move up to the highest place from where you have a wider view of the battlefield. Also, it is better to go from the sides so you get wider coverage. The enemy can notice your presence and try to shoot you but your team can retaliate first and gun down the enemy with paintballs.
Keep in mind that you are in a battlefield and everything is fair in war. What if you accidentally break a ball in your gun? In this situation, your gun will get stuck making you a soft target for the enemy. They can hunt you down with their blazing guns. You will have to accept defeat after getting wet with their paintballs. If you don’t want this to happen to you, you should go prepared with a barrel cleaner. Keep a barrel swab or squeegee for a quick cleaning job so you can get ready for the attack before they notice your stuck gun. You won’t want to retire hurt and without fighting. You should give a tough fight to the enemy.
The best way for a beginner to aim a paintball gun is to aim higher above the target and bring it down slowly. For example, you aim above the head of a target and fire paintballs at full speed from your gun. At the same time, you keep lowering the barrel as if you are painting the target from top to bottom. In this way, you are certain to get a hit and the target will be out of the field. Beginners often make the mistake of taking one shot at a time. Your objective should be to surprise the enemy with your shots and keep firing until the enemy is out.
Keep your eyes on your enemy but first keep your goggles clear of fog. On the battlefield, you will move swiftly, change positions, defend yourself and your team, and attack the enemy. All these activities can make you breathe fast. Watch if your humid breath fogging your goggles. If yes, you should breathe away downwards to keep your goggles clean. It is a trick that only experts can share. If you accidentally fog your goggles, they will blur your vision making you an easy target for the enemy. Also, keep a micro-fiber towel to clean your goggles, if they become foggy. Share this tip with your team members so you can do a better job as a team. Clear visibility will work in your favor.
Paintball is a team game and for this reason, people enjoy it most with their friends. If you are in Goa for a friendly vacation, you can plan a paintball session. The advantage of playing with your friends is you won’t have any difficulty in planning a strategy to take down the enemy. For example, you can assign a job to each friend according to their strengths. You will get a couple of minutes to prepare a winning strategy before the game referee blows the start whistle. You can divide your group into attack, defense, and cover players. Taller players can be assigned the job of watching the enemy and shorter players can be sent for gunning down the enemy players.
Prevent stepping on dried leaves because the crushing sound of dried leaves could expose your presence and allow the hidden enemy to hit you on your face. Similarly, you need to prevent your extra paintballs from rattling. Every player gets extra paintball tubes to keep in reserve. The balls in tubes could rattle on moving. This rattling sound could make your position vulnerable by attracting the attention of others including enemies. Or the rattling balls could break destroying your reserve ammunition. You should check whether your reserve tubes are rattling. If yes, fill some extra balls in the tubes to cover the space the balls are rattling for. Close the tubes lightly so the paintballs aren’t damaged.
Keep your gun and ammo belt in the shade so your paintballs don’t come into contact with the sun. Soft gelatin balls can get swelled on coming into contact with heat. Also, they become sticky and bouncy. They can break into your gun while firing requiring you to clean the barrel multiple times. It is an important tip as it can save your game and your team. Take a position where your ammo remains safe so you have more rounds to fire. Most beginners lose their ammo to heat. They put more focus on noticing the enemy and forget to take care of their paintballs that often burst in the barrel instead of the opponents. With these tips, you can lead your team to victory.
Your gun would have a hopper to hold paintballs. A hopper can hold up to 200 paintballs which are sufficient to bring an enemy down. Also, you need this many balls to throw a barrage of balls at enemies. But should you fill the hopper to its brim? As a beginner, you will say yes. But a professional will advise you to keep some space free for the balls to move. Filling the hopper with balls could jam the lid leading to the bursting of balls in the barrel. A small gap of up to 1 cm between the lid of the gun and the hopper is required to allow smooth filling of the gun. Also, it is better to refill your gun again instead of compromising your position.
A paintball Goa is all about hitting the enemy hard enough to send them out of the field. For example, take goggles. A burst of balls on the goggles could make an opponent blind forcing them to call quit and win for you. Similarly, firing at a hopper could destroy all the balls forcing the enemy to run out of the field to save their life. But you need to be in a higher and strategic position to take final shots at the enemy. Also, keep in mind that the enemy can also take these shots at you. It is a war game where you need to be the first to attack and your attack should be hard enough to gun down the enemy.
A paintball Goa game is won with communication. What you see, you should share with others in your team so you can help each other. For quick and effective communication, you can choose sign language or gestures to avoid detection by enemy forces. For example, raising your index finger could be a sign of danger, and showing your thumb could be a sign to go ahead. You can make a fist to show attack and a palm to hold fire. Also, the information should be quick and authentic. You should avoid passing the information whose authenticity is in doubt. If you have any doubts, you can ask a team member to clear the doubt before attacking the enemy or defending your team.
