Oh...and death to faggot ass wipers. Cheaters in paintball deserve the worst punishment known to man. The course owner would put a 5 man firing squad on someone who tried cheating especially in tournaments as a punishment if they don't want to be permabanned.

I played competitively at a local sup-air course for a few years. It gets funner and funner the more you get into it especially if you get on a team of a friends.

The most satisfying thing ever for me was the good ol' sneak attack where you blind fire behind where you know they are as you're rounding the corner and then when you get a visual you see someone curled up on the ground waiting for you to stop shooting them....too much fun.

Paint ball sounds fun as hell.  Iv'e never played it though :[.  How do you even cheat at paintball?

I just wish you could use optics on paintball guns like a holographic sight.  But thats only in Airsoft :/.  Paintball Airsoft might be cool, with some real good electric/co2 guns

paintballing is fun, but probably one of the most expensive hobbies to have. With the new markers and hoppers they have today, you can blow through 35 balls in a second if you're trying to max out your bps. So do the math when it comes to cost analysis. A case of paintballs (2000) divided by 35 bps = about a minute of fun for a $50-70 case of paintballs. Plus other equipment such as hpa tank, barrels, boards, mask, you're spending an arm and a leg.

That's why I no longer play paintball

It seems like its expensive if you make it to be. I mean I paid $45 for a FULL day of paintballing and that came with a gun, a belt with some extra ammo holders, and a mask (not to mention 1000 paintballs). Sure my wife beater and ripped jeans didnt look as "epiced out" as some of the other fellows But I had a fucking blast for a decent price.


Hell If I came with my own gun (tipman around $150) and my own ammo I could have played all day for $10......

You get shot on the mask somewhere or on the foot, body etc in a spot where you can easily take your sleeve or a cloth for cleaning your barrel and wipe it off pretending you never got shot.

I spent 1k on each of my guns plus when I hit the course if I wasn't sponsored and provided free paint then I would of been spending $80 to $120 on a case of paintballs every day I was there. Not to mention all of the jerseys/pants/shoes/mask and things that I bought as well.

It's not a cheap hobby...that's for sure.

Once again.......sounds completley unessesary....why not just buy the good old AK -47 of paintball guns (the tipman 98) and buy a cheap box of 2k painballs and thrown on some old cloths? WHy get all the bells and wistles and guns that are capable of putting 12 yr olds in the hospital

Its more fun when your wearing plain thin clothing because the reactions from getting shot are way better! I got nailed in the chest that caused me to bleed, but imagine being the guy who shot me! Had to be fun to watch him bring a grown man down to the ground and scream in pain

Anybody ever do any of the Dday skirmish re-enactments? I did one in PA a few years ago with over 4000 people. It was ridiculous, so much fun. Only time ive paintball'd too.

Dude I used to work at Skirmish when I was a teenager... Not joking, I lived like 10 minutes away from their main center (Not the actual fields, about 6 miles from the fields).

Crazy.

EDIT: PS Skirmish is a total fucking rip off they make you purchase their shitty paintballs for 4x the amount they pay for them.
