Next advancement

[B.A.M.]

Here's a question that im just going to throw out there and see where it goes.
-What do you think will be the next major advancement in paintballing in general-

[LittlePaintballBoy]

Jet-pack.

people who don't wipe: date pending 3020

[B.A.M.]

Now that would be an advancement

Maybe something in the realm of hopper technology. Or lower prices on everything.
I wouldnt say pnuematic triggers. They have been around since almost the beginning. It's just now that people are seeing other ways to adapt that technology( hAir, PTP frame)

But what I'd like to see more than any advancements in technology, is advancemtns in the sport itself. Stop the cheating, better refs, an international governing body of the sport.

[B.A.M.]

I definatly agree that paintball as a sport needs to advance in not cheating and be more of a not proper sport but less um i cant think of the word

[Python14]

It's probably gonna be in the size of guns. Companies will figure out ways to make compact systems and so forth

a brand new tournament series. one that started over from ground zero. one that actually punished a team for cheating. one that did not allow full auto/ramping boards. that may never come to pass. oh, and give me a tournament series that is not owned/promoted by a manufacturer. this will never happen

[automagkid24]

Prices for sure. Because some kids that cant get jobs arent able to aford the high end electro markers. I know because i am one of them. But im saving every penny i get towards a new gun.

[B.A.M.]

You can get one sponsered by Microsoft because they have enuff money and computers with magical elves in them to help stop teams from cheating
But it is a good idea

[personman]

If we knew, we wouldn't be posting here, we would be off developing the idea so we could make money off of it

[Miscue]

Semi-auto, HPA, and electronic triggers I think were the biggest advancements. There's always room for innovation, but I don't think we're going to see something that changes all of paintball like these things.

Smaller, cheaper, more efficient, etc. - this is what we'll see if anything. I think that big innovations are going to happen over time in paintball, but not overnight... and I'm not referring to the markers.

[BeaverEater]

I think the advancements are gonna be something like computers. The need to upgrade every couple of years so that they always have you buying new gear and spending more money.

Has there been an innovation in the last 2 years? noo....

Has there been an innovation in the last 2 years? noo....
