Many people build them out of car and tucks to give them a "real life" aspect to the game, The speed limit for most scenario games is five miles per hour, so foot players still stand a chance. | |

Although many games have been created in paintball many people just play "rec ball". Which usually consists of small teams. That play if you get hit you are out until the next round, and the last team standing wins. This is one of the most popular ways to play paintball, for its sheer simplicity. | |
| A lot of people play rec ball in tournaments. Rec ball tournaments have 3 or 5 people on team, with separate brackets for each. In tournaments it is two shots and you are gone. |  |
