The Basics 01

Safety First

Before you even start to play airsoft, you must have eye protection. BBs may not be able to kill you, but it can blind you.

Rules of Engagement

Finger OFF the trigger until you are in the arena. Never shoot inside a safe area where people may not have eye protection on.

Calling Hits

Once you feel an impact, yell "HIT" and raise your hand. Walk back to spawn with your hand raised to avoid being shot again.

FPS - Velocity

Every gun will vary in strength which is measured by FPS. <300 is the weakest and can be shot everywhere. 350-400 is usually the max allowed FPS and can not be shot in-doors based on the field rules.

Gameplay 02

Fight

Don't be scared about being shot. The first mistake many make is hiding in the back of every round. Run around, get your blood pumping, and get some kills.

Peaking

Do not peak with your head unless you want BBs flying to your face. Peak with the majority of your body, like in real life, so that your armor can take the shots.

Shooting

It's hard to tell where BBs are flying without a tracer unit. Shoot at the enemies until they are hit. Just don't shoot when they call their hit and/or raise their hand.

Issues

If you run out of ammo or into any issues, simply raise your hand and walk back to the safe room. You can always return back to the game.

Sportsmanship 03

Cheaters

Stay calm and try to talk it out with the cheater. The best thing to do if they are not cooperating is to reach out to a referee.

Spawn Killing

Every arena will have set spawns. Pull back if you know you are pushing too close, and do not shoot at people in spawn.

Blind Firing

Do not blind fire as it is an unfair advantage. You should always peak with your gun.

Fair Play

Don't try to actively cheat or seek out exploits. Play in the way where everyone can have fun: fairly.
