Better than paintball?

First there was Paintball and then there was........UUUUUMMMMMM nothing. I mean laser tag is all right but hands down PB tops it.

No bruises?!?

OK,I am not a masochist, but part of the fun of paintball is the pain. There is an accountability to playing poorly, paintballs sting. With a lasertag game, if you are not committed to the "reality" of a hit, then there is not accountability. One of my best games was taking about eighteen shots as I was the last guy left in a rec ball game and refused to surrender. Some of those guys were firing HOT and some of the bruises took weeks to go away, but isn't that the point? I wouldn't have any idea how many beams of light I had been hit by in a laser tag game and it wouldn't have meant anything to the guys who shot me to have one more kill, as I am sure that only one registers the kill. Paintball definitely. Better team building, better fun, better accountability.

Another thing is supressive fire or cover fire wouldn't do ****... you couldn't tell if someone was firing at you other than sounds of *zap zap zap* in the distance. In paintball you can see the balls flying at you and hear the impacts around you.


Team work would go to hell without supressive fire or squads guarding each other to advance.


This sport is either designed for pussies, kids under 10 (who would do better off with those cheap laser tag kits with 2 guns ect.), or both.


I am in college and wouldn't even think twice about not ever wanting to play that sport / game.

i agree, lazer tag is week, there's nothing to make you not want to get hit except a beep. how much doe s abeep hurt? a paintball at least hurts enough that you're gonna be semi smart about it and not want to get hit by 1 if you can help it.
