Paintball 101: Do I need to wear a cup?
 

Going for the first time tomorrow...do I need to wear a cup? Anything else I should know?

I don't think anyone wears a cup. Just go, have fun, shoot in the right direction.

get gloves. It's no fun getting hit in the hand which happened at lot to me.

Nah u'll be fine, just wear [censored] jeans, cargo pants.

it doesn't hurt that much, don't let that scare you.

conserve ammo at first, get a sense of of the feel for the game. shoot in spurts of 10-20 shots. never run in a straight line. pretend like its a real war.

paintball is amazing and this post makes me sad for having not played in over a year.

oh yeah, and don't take your mask off during the game. not to clean it, not when you think ure alone. never.

i read a few old threads about people talking abotu hwo they stopped playing bc it was so expensive....how expensive can it be? Once you buy all the [censored], that seems like a one time cost, the only [censored] you have left to constantly buy is paintballs and time at the field, so wtf am i missing?

i did see a gun that went for $3k on ebay though, that is pretty [censored] sick. I have a feeling I am going to love this [censored].

It is very expensive, when my friend was playing seriously he was always upgrading his gear or buying a new marker. Paintballs aren't cheap and you could easily go through 10k+ in one day.
