Most games are tend to fall into a few basic catagories:

1) Capture the flag type games,
2) Attack and defend type games
3) Speedball / airball / hyperball

Each type of game has its own specific rules, however as has been stated there are a few universal rules. Not to belabor the point, but know your boundaries and where your safe zones are. NEVER take off your mask unless you are in one of these safe zones. Also, if your not actively in a game - put in your barrel plug, put your marker on safe if you have one, or shut off the e-frame.

One of my huge pet peeves is people shooting out of the safe zones into the woods, or at the bushes or whatever. THERE IS NO SHOOTING IN THE SAFE ZONES!!! End of message, full stop! Just don't do it. Some places won't even let you dry fire in the safe zones.

The only other thing I would mention is to make sure you know your chrono speeds on your marker. Most rec places like to see you shooting 270-290 fps, but it is generally accepted that 300 fps is the max for any type of game.

Ask questions of the vets. Most are more then willing to help out newer players as long as they are not idiots about it.
