Paintball is played with a variety of rules that almost without limits and variations. The rules must be determined before the game begins. The most fundamental rules of the game is that players should strive to achieve the goal without being exposed to fire a paintball gun. When a player is shot, he must raise their marker to show that they had been shot and then left the playing field. However, this rule can be changed depending on the initial agreement of the players.
The specific objective of the game is determined before play begins, for example, capture the flag or elimination. Paintball has spawned other game variants are also popular among woodsball. Woodsball played in natural environment and covers the entire wide area. In contrast, the type of speedball played on a smaller field and the game is very fast (usually a game lasts up to five minutes). Another type of paintball game scenarios, in which players try to repeat history or create a situation, like Oklahoma D-Day World War II (the largest ever applied scenario).
Game set and supervised by a referee. Referee patrols to ensure the enforcement of safety rules and the players. If a player is marked with paint, they will call the player. But competitors are also expected to follow a code of honor, such as the ball broke means of elimination. Field operators can determine the variation of this rule, like the shot should only be directed to specific body parts – such as head and chest. There are rules of the game that its application depends on where in order to ensure safety, maintain the honesty of the game or eliminate fraud.
Here are some rules that must be upheld in a paintball game:
The minimum distance – Affected shots would taste like taxable blow, sick or not depends on the distance shots. Hit can leave bruises or bruises on the body. Because the pain is often associated as a paintball hit, some places enforce a minimum distance, so players can not shoot an opponent if their distance to the opponent is less than the specified minimum distance, eg 25 feet (7.6 meters).
Overshooting – Condition of play can prevent players from overshooting (also called bonus balling or “overkill”) that is repeatedly shoot opposing players even after they are removed from the game. If a player knows that the opposing player has been eliminated, but they kept shooting at him, ignoring the safety of opposing players and pose a risk of serious injury, it is also called overshooting.
Ramping – Ramping refers to the gun (marker) that is controlled electronically so as to increase the rate of fire / ROF (Rate Of Fire) or ball / BPS (Ball Per Second) which is fired every second. Ramping is prohibited on all paintball games and only allowed in some tournaments.
Wiping – Players may try to cheat by removing the paint from their own bodies, they pretend not to hit and still come into play.
