Another tip: don't think of getting hit as the end of the world, it's just part of the game. You're happy when you tag someone so when you get tagged someone else will be happy and you get to take a break.
The best tip on mindset I've heard about airsoft was: "Don't come to rack up killstreaks and win all the time - come to get shot at and laugh about it." Not only does it help on the field, but it helps immensely when applying it to online MP games like Battlefield, Squad, or even CoD. When you reframe your goal from winning to having fun simply shooting at and being shot by other players, then it's easier to brush off bad games/days and harder to walk away from a game salty.
@@Madara8989 Hi, so this video was uploaded 4 months ago. I'm just asking out of curiosity, why are you watching it now? Did you search for something and this was one of the results? Or did youtube suddenly recommend it to you? Maybe you watched the latest Airsoftology video and that's why this one was recommended by the algorithm?
@@sogerc1 You've already answered your question; enjoy picking out one of the several reasonable reasons someone would watch a video (and comment) an extended period after it's been uploaded to figure out which it was.
As a ref, split up those "teams" on both sides. always balance out teams for any "public games" makes everyone have a good time. If one sides is winning too much? remix teams, handy app out there for team randomizer since all players have numbered armbands at the field im at.
@@MrGoogle87 I'd imagine if it's just 2 casual friends playing there would be no real reason to split them up and most fields wouldn't bother, unless it's field policy to randomize teams every match (which isn't the norm from my understanding). It's when those 2 friends are so much better than everyone else at the field that no other combinations of players can compete with them that reffs would/should look into splitting up even small groups. If you are/were the kind of player to get salty because the reffs split your small group up because they keep dominating all day and would avoid a field that threatened to ignore your personal relationships to balance the game so everyone has the chance to enjoy themselves, and if running an airsoft field is anything like running Battlefield servers, then I'm sure most fields would be happy with such players staying away (because wanting to dominate in casual MP games is a huge red flag for over-competitive mindsets and toxic behavior in-game).
I’ve been making it a goal to bring someone who has never tried it every time I play. I have an extra decent paintball mask and aeg so I bring along people when I can to try to help grow the sport! Love your videos! The ones I see consistently are bad eye pro and people being afraid to push up. We need to work as a community to help them get over the fear of being shot.
Some good tips. I do a lot of marshalling at my local site and we routinely get groups of 10+ noobs. We always split them so that they are not unduly penalised by other teams that play together regularly. Most of our regulars understand this and will happily break up their squads for a few games to share the knowledge and encourage the game play (pushing up, tactics, site knowledge tips, communication etc). Balancing the teams on any day is important but more so when noobs are present. I always encourage the new players to invest in their own eye and face pro first and continue to rent RIFs until they have played a few games. Worst case scenario is they invest in some protection that they may not need anymore should they give up. The aim of our Airsoft days is fun; that is why we all turn up so it is important to us that the customers re having fun. We do routine hit checks on almost everyone through out the day to minimise the liklihood of people not taking hits, re-chrono at least 20% of players throughout the day and ensure that any disagreements are raised to us as quickly as possible to try to ensure that ill feelings against others is kept to a minimum. Active marshalling is essential to everyone having fun. As a team we apply the same rules to everyone, and communicate amongst ourselves if there is an issue, this way if one of us makes a call we are all aware of it and can apply it accordingly or make a correction if the Head Marshall decides to ask for it. Good content and context, keep it coming.
Another bonus tip that is the best upgrade to your kit is your own physical fitness. Trudging along like leatheface with a polar star won't stand a chance against someone who is in their best physical condition and able to out maneuver you on your position.
"Gamers Spotted." Unlike their favorite FPS game you can't spam "jump" or sidestep left & right (AD-strafing) to avoid being shot, you can't tank 3 bullets and heal to full health by avoiding contact for 15s, you can't run indefinitely or casually parkour around the environment, and you actually have to have upper body strength to climb things lol.
Hey, good video but I would like you to rethink the advice of two important gear items for beginners. First protection (eye, face) and second a tracer unit. I don’t think a tracer unit would be the best advice for beginner Airsoft honestly. Good shoes, pants, gloves, spare lipo’s, death rag, etc aren’t those better alternatives?
Agreed, tracer units are a bit niche in use... Everyone can use to save 50-100 on a tracer and buy equipment that provides a better quality of life or even quality of play.
I straight up bought my first gun before ever playing, but I already knew I was gonna stick with it, and I looked into a billion things before I ever stepped onto a field.
Thanks man! It's good to be back. And, I've been watching your stuff in my absence. That said, I'd love to get you on a future Q&A show. Lets chat if you are game! -J
Started a few years ago and absolutely, bought a gun before I started playing and didn’t really love it all that much. But I stuck with it and kept playing through the year and it’s become literally my favorite hobby
Tracer unit is very much unnecessary; you wanna make sure you have quality eye pro, a reliable gun, and the right mags Edit cause people are still seeing this apparently: I can definitely see how a tracer could be much more useful indoors; I’m coming at it with outside experience only, so your mileage may vary.
Agreed, there are more important things you can get before a tracer. However if you play in low light conditions then I would recommend to have a tracer. :)
Good point on the mags. I've had some trash ones that made life a nightmare. But for the tracer, the only reason I recommended it for new players is that I see so many out there thinking they are hitting their target but aren't (too dark to see BB's, hopup adjustment incorrect, etc) it's a great tool to give a far more positive 1st time expierence for the player and help learn the fundamentals with 'aim assist' turned on.
I actually almost quit back when I started airsoft because I got destroyed so bad.... But I started on a local field that have a good base of new players,and neded up growing into one of those who might ruin it a little for the new... but we have all been there ;D
So, I watched airsoft videos for 10 years before I was finally able to start playing 2 years ago. 1st, you don’t NEED that krytac, umbrella arms, or any “top tier “ replica. Get a good cheap one like G&G or Lancer tactical. The replica doesn’t make the player good. 2nd, your most important piece of equipment is eye/face protection. NO MESH!!!! Seriously there is a reason why people always talk about this. 3rd, you don’t need a full combat load out dress. Hiking boots, pants, shirt, and gloves are just fine. That $600+ crye outfit won’t make you any better. I went solo my first 4 times playing, and the same team that took me in and taught me are the same team I am now on. You will meet more cool people than you will meet people just going out to fight. Just go out and have fun, and remember……. You are paying to play as a target, and if you hit someone it’s a plus.
Anti-fog eye protection is a must. Trying to fight the fog will ruin your day quickly. Tracers are subjective, but do give you a distinct advantage when you are in low light conditions such as CQB/indoor. Not having a tracer unit in these conditions is not the end of the world if your skills and tactics are on point. There are other things/gear you can get before a tracer unit such as comfortable long sleeve t-shirts, pants, gloves, shoes, etc that would make your life a lot better when in game. It is best to wait until you have chosen a primary gun you want to buy, then work out which tracer works best for you and the gun you have chosen. Your choice of gun will dictate what gear you will need to improve your gameplay. My advice to anyone starting out is to go slowly as you progress, don't rush to gear up to the max. Get one or two pieces of gear at a time and test it out in game. Sometimes you have a great idea that this next bit of kit will improve your gameplay but in reality it doesn't. Test in game and you will know what works and what doesn't work for you. So just get out there have some fun and call your hits! :)
I personally started air softy with a lot of old military gear passed down from my dad, and since then have upgraded. And I think here is a very important part of airsofting.
my first gun was nov ssg10 A1 and it wasnt even so bad idea it tought me how to play and teamplay. (i do not recommend it but it was fun for me) now my gear is krytac MK II crb-m and m9 beretta. hella fun : D
When you do get to the point of buying gear start with a modular chest rig. The more "universal" it is the better and lightweight is key. There are plenty available in lots of price ranges that can even be attached to a plate carrier later on.
Hey airsoftology, i was wondering if it would be worth it to slap on a rmr red dot sight on my EF g19x, would i be losing some gas efficiency or would it be fine? I dont wanna commit until i know the downsides
I agree 100% whenever I get a friend or just someone I know who wants to get into airsoft I always lend them one of my loner gun that I have and some gear and take them out.
Eye protection, if you wear eyeglasses either buy a dye or spend money on prescriptions glasses or shooting sunglasses that you can use for airsoft. You will end up spending same money for prescription glasses and for trying out all of the goggle for right goggles.
With a rental gun or any gun set the hopup! Ask someone to help. I can't tell you how many times a rental is dropping BBS at my feet when I should be out.
I didn't rent before I bought when I started but I had a few friends already playing and I knew I'd stick with it. I bought a terrible m4 replica and went from there. That was nearly 10 years ago now. In addition to your tips I would say to new guys to get foot wear and actually listen to the pre game brief.
PLEASE discuss this question and let us know the Inside Scoop - WHERE THE HELL are all the spare GBBR Magazines (Western Arms compatible) to buy in the USA!!?? I just got my first M4 GBBR (WA system) to build up as a DMR and I can't find Mags ANYWHERE!! What is going on?
I remember my 1st game, 6hrs and I didn’t get a single confirm kill. Rental lens fogging up, couldn’t use the iron sights due to the face mask. At least I had the hop up adjusted correctly. That first kill in my 2nd outing was so satisfying.
My beginner mistake was getting a very cheap gun and scope. The gun was inaccurate and had feeding issues, the scope's mount didn't hold zero, it was a disaster. But I was broke back then.
I have a Lancer and I’m planning on going to play with it in two weeks, but if it’s not good, I have a second M4 in mind, that being an ASG ArmaLite M15A4. Would that be a good choice? I really wanna go for an M4 with a removable carry handle, clamshell handguard and classic collapsable stock.
Bro I have had notifications on and subed LONG LONG ago and I haven't seen a notification for your videos in Months... This youtube system is Horrible... I see your views are suffering from it...
I would change tip Nr2 around a bit, specifiy that Full Face Protection is the only good Protection, especially if you play indoors. I play exclusive indoor cqb, on my homefield 9 tooth got shoot out in the last few years, all from outdoor players that thougt full face protection was for noobs... My recommendations for faceprotection would always be a paintball mask, bnkerkings, dye etc. because they always offer a working thermal lens and full facepro. The face and the Hands are the places were impacts hurt the most, so if i would have to start over with my gear i would also pick a good pair of gloves and a Headband or cap with closed back, to keep these bodyparts well protected. Good goggles and a mesh mask is also a viable starter option for facepro, in terms of price, you only risk to get shoot in the nose gap, wich ive been told quite hurts too...
Definitely one of my biggest regrets when starting was wanting all the nice stuff and spending money on super cheap stuff. I wish I would have saved up and gotten stuff as I could afford it rather than wasting so much money on the cheap stuff.
I am still new to the sport, I would love to see more information on eypro for people wearing glasses. I have not seen much on this topic. I weer glasses and would love some good recommendations for eyepro that do not fog up and can be used comfortably with prescription glasses.
I agree with most other comments, tracer isn’t important at all imo. I play at an outdoor field, but only use mine during night games. I agree with every other point. A lot of guys buy snipers at my field I feel like, which I always urge my new friends to not get. They are fun and a cool experience, but they aren’t practical for a new player.
Pro tip: its nicer to play against newcomers because 1, you don't have to play hard to win, so it's more fun screwing around for laughs, 2 they don't have egos, 3 less cheating because of it.
Would definetely disagree with your statement about the necessity of getting a Travet Unit. Could probably list 10 other thing that are definetely more important, even for beginners.
I'm Back! And, I'll let you in on a secret... hit the notification bell if you haven't because I'll be doing the first #askairsoftology interactive livestream this week!
Did I really just hear someone say that there is no such thing as a suppressor that can quiet airsoft guns perfectly???? TM mk23 owners: I guess I don’t exist Hpa owners with foam cans: I don’t exist either TM P90TR users: this is a joke right? Bolt action users: BRUH WHAT DRUGS ARE YOU TAKING??
Sure, but remember, we are talking beginner options here. HPA is rather premium and not normally in the price range for a newer airsoft player. The TM MK23 is not licensed so it's technically illegal outside of Japan and a few other small markets, same goes for the TM P90. And sniper rifles do have noise reduction, but you are still audible enough to be spotted regularly (and especially so for newer sniper role players). Just trying to keep things simple for the new-to-airsoft crowd.
@@opairsoft8100 I like your points though. And this makes me think: Should I make a vid on how to silence your airsoft replica, and which ones are better than others?

Started a few years ago and absolutely, bought a gun before I started playing and didn’t really love it all that much. But I stuck with it and kept playing through the year and it’s become literally my favorite hobby
So, any guesses on what the top new player tips will be? I admittedly have done a few myself on this list...
dont buy anything before trying the sport?
Always play fair and having fun is the most important rule what I always tell as a marshall
Tracer unit is very much unnecessary; you wanna make sure you have quality eye pro, a reliable gun, and the right mags
Edit cause people are still seeing this apparently: I can definitely see how a tracer could be much more useful indoors; I’m coming at it with outside experience only, so your mileage may vary.

Depending on the lighting of your local fields, tracer units can be very helpful. Outdoors during the day though? Not so much.

I would change tip Nr2 around a bit, specifiy that Full Face Protection is the only good Protection, especially if you play indoors.
I play exclusive indoor cqb, on my homefield 9 tooth got shoot out in the last few years, all from outdoor players that thougt full face protection was for noobs...

Good recommendations! 👍
Started with a bolt action - could not be happier
Does this mean more consistent uploads?

this is more like 5 recommendation instead of 5 mistakes lol
Would definetely disagree with your statement about the necessity of getting a Travet Unit. Could probably list 10 other thing that are definetely more important, even for beginners.
The fact everyone believes the airsoft industry isn't highly predatory
Speedqb community is not very welcoming. But the rest of the airsoft is pretty welcoming.
Good info! First time I rented gun from field and next week I bought gun from them😄
A sling! Always a sling. First thing anyone should buy after the gun.
Ma man is looking hella fresh 👌

Bolt action users: BRUH WHAT DRUGS ARE YOU TAKING??
Sure, but remember, we are talking beginner options here.
HPA is rather premium and not normally in the price range for a newer airsoft player. The TM MK23 is not licensed so it's technically illegal outside of Japan and a few other small markets, same goes for the TM P90.
And sniper rifles do have noise reduction, but you are still audible enough to be spotted regularly (and especially so for newer sniper role players).
Just trying to keep things simple for the new-to-airsoft crowd.
@@Airsoftology that’s fair, was coming from a experienced player so keeping things simple wasn’t on my mind
@@opairsoft8100 I like your points though. And this makes me think: Should I make a vid on how to silence your airsoft replica, and which ones are better than others?
the issue with airsoft is kids airsoft should be 18 and up
