splatmster24 Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 have you ever played paintball? have you ever been shot by a paintball marker? ever seen it on tv? what type of gun do you have or want? ive played paintball for about 3 years now, ive won a few tournaments(nothing major), had a few markers, spent a TON of money on it, and have loved it since the first time i played. now, lets make something clear. the paintball i play is NOT a war game. they have scenarios and such but the game i play is in a enclosed area, with regulation fields and refs, with set fps limits. i play to have fun and strengthen teamwork with my friends. questions? stories? opinions? favorite teams? my fav is the Bosten red legion, AKA the Russian Legion (they pwn) Say what you mean and mean what you say because those that matter don't mind, and those that mind don't matter.

rocketman089 Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 I'm not into all that league play and stuff but me and my friends go out to the local field or my friend's farm like once or twice a month for some good [garden tool]-balling fun. Personally i've just got a Tippman 98 custom with a 14" barrel, and stock trigger and hopper. League play and regular trips to the public field are too expensive for me, and it's not a lot of fun with all the 12 year olds with Angels and DM's owning your butt :?

Intriguing Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 I'd love to play painball, but I'm either 1 or 3 years too young.. In NSW you have to be 16 or 18. It's one or the other. I don't remember. Cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pompey_spud Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Ive been to the YPC (yorkshire paintball centre) a few times with my mates, and am even a member there, but i dont play it enough to have the need to buy my own equiment. Plus, everytime ive gone, ive always ended up being hurt like hell (first time tripped over log and broke nose, 2nd time got shot in the neck, 3rd time got shot on my bare finger, on a freezing cold day and the last time i went i fell into a ditch then got shot on the arse from a few meters away by the other team), and so i would never play against pro's and the like.

unknownmasterofnothing Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 I've played once this past winter break. It was indoors. It's quite messy. My friend plays it with bb guns instead. I got shot 3 times in the leg at nearly close range. It hurt so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rushrock Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 I've played paintball before. It was at this course in the woods. It was pretty fun, except for the part where I got shot in the head. D; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketman089 Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 The only two times I really remember a shot hurting was the side of a kneecap (I wasn't even playing, got tagged out and was on the sidelines) and getting a butt-shot trying to reach a pod someone rolled over to me. I don't think those two people were chrono-ing right either :( Gamertag: King Arizona Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frogspoons Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 I've been, it was great. Dont get the paint through your mouth grill it tastes horrible. CANE Just to be different. Think about it. A freaking Dragon Cane with a Dragonstone gem.The spec will simply your character equiping a glove and beachslapping the enemy, who will break down and do the Cry emote for 10 seconds straight.

Markup Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 I shot a guy from behind when he was lying down, it hit him in the [male body part]. He started crying. I felt so sorry for him. Once we just strait at the enemy and got wiped out. My friend broke his arm when he jumped into a ditch to avoid fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 One time I went on my birthday and on the last game my friends had convinced everyone on the entire team to turn on me at the start of the game. Cue 15+ people all shooting me multiple times and and different ranges some only 2 metres away all at the same time :cry: Some of the paint balls caused bleeding and others just left incredibly large bruises, some lasting for weeks after. But it was fun and id do it all again. You can't be ok with shooting other people and at the same time "boo hoo" about it hurting yourself. ^_^ Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.
