from your profile you only play weekends and this is in the newbies section so i'm guessing you're playin rec ball. camo will help you blend in with your surrounding if you match the pattern to what environment you're playin in. but dark jerseys are usually pretty decent too. i believe jerseys are cooler (as in temperature) so that is another thing to consider. also how much disposible income do you have? if you have only a little bit, you might want to look at surplus stores or thrift stores for some used camo. another thing is intimidation. playin rec ball and showing up in full DYE jersey, pants, gloves, and what-have-you will (most likely) intimidate the newer players. however it will also make you a target for the "old guys." i like to target them (people in jerseys) to see if they're good or just dressing the part. however if you're on paintball team, i'd suggest matching jerseys, it will make you look more "professional."
if you're playin rec-speedball, camo really doesn't have any advantages, IMHO.
personally, i wear camo pants, a black t-shirt, gloves, and 7 point metal football cleats and goggles of course. i like looking like a noob and letting my skills, or lackthereof, set me apart from the field.
