so i got this dm4

[felony]

So you weren't expecting it to do anything, yet it seems like you're surprised it hasn't. If you played just as well with an emag and revvy, why bother upgrading?

are you saying it should have helped my game?

[felony]

DO IT!

its temptinng

[felony]

the dm4 is an awesome marker, and it out performs the e-mag in many ways. apparently you arent playing competitively enough to really use its full effects though. Sorry to hear this. if you are happy with it, i would stick with it, if not, then get rid of it.

pretty sure i am using it to its full effect.

pretty sure i know its a good marker

just not sure if its done anything another marker cant.

I played just as well with my emag and revvy.

so whats the point of having the newest top of the line stuff? just so you can walk around the stagin areas showing off so people gawk at it?

Ding, ding ding ding!

I was listening to these morons at a local pro shop. There were 4-5 of them hangning out blabing about the newst "gats." There was an even number of dm4's, shockers, and timmy's amoungst thier group. All they could talk about was which gun they were getting next, new angel, freestyle......

Some day, or maybe never, people are going to find that most guns are same crap different pile. They all shoot fast, they all shoot 300 fps, etc.... Buy what you like and not what is the hype on a message board or whats cool to the local "tourney' crowd.

There is one absolute fact, I have never had a mag that cuased me any trouble. I have however, owned about everything else that has given me some problem in the past.

No, I'm saying why get it if you didn't think it would be an improvement?

I guess you just learned the hard way. Any good electronic marker in the $500 range will perform as good as any other regardless of cost. If your comparing "legally" set up markers that's even more true.


Beyond that, there are those that prefer to "buy" status at any cost. Some people like to have the newbs follow them around like puppies and gawk at the latest "must have" marker. If that makes them feel better, good for them.


Now me for instance, I buy what ever like regardless of cost. I'm a grown up and can afford to shoot whatevere I want. But.....I don't do it to 'gain' anything. I do it cause for me,playing is more of a Hobby so I buy what ever I think will be fun to try. I know what I'm capable of and I know what the marker is capable of so after that it's mearly a comfort and "feel" kinda thing......or 'cause I just wanna. The bottom line is you just have to be realistic about your purchases and honest with yourself as to why you make them.

Well, that's enough preaching, if you learned something from all of this then at least some of the money was well spent. So......whatcha gonna do now?

not in my experience, friend got a b2k3 w/pds and that thing had so many problems, not to mention it kicked like a mule and was the gas hoggiest marker i've ever seen (yes even worse than a level 10'd mag)

You mean the lvl10 mag that gets around 1550 per 68/4500. I had a bko and for 300 bucks it was a dam good buy.

the truth hurts!

[nastymag]

well, magman , dude . no need to be that mean to the guy . its just his opinion.

yes after a certain point markers are all decent and not great leaps and bounds abouve another one. If you need money and like how the Dm4 shoots, trade for a dm3 and some money, use your revy. if you like to play like that go ahead. the diffirence in the way it shoots will be minor. mostly only in weight and size.

there are diffirences in how we like our markers, and to make them look pretty.
a Freestyle will do the same thing a ND freestyle will do.
An Xmag will do the same thing an Emag will do.

but there are huge price diffrences there...why ?
because people like to look good smacking people.


i suggest you get somthing that will get the job done well, and that you arent afriad of scratching.

like a Dm3, Emag , Aced LCD angel...all great guns that scratches just add character too.

you know the real problem here? the buyer wanted something to just magically improve his game. this isnt going to happen. by just purchasing a marker. you need to learn how to use the marker to your advantage. i find that i can shoot more accurately and faster with a trix style marker. less kick etc etc. and it doesnt chop as much as my sfl did, with a correctly installed lx, and a black vcg efficiency mod to the lx.

my dm4 still out shot the sfl, in fills and in all other aspects of the game. i learned how to use it to my advantage. i wasnt just a better player from the second it was in my hand, and this isnt going to happen

Hmm,

Go check the Timmy,Angel,AKA...........whatever forums. They're all perfect and trouble free right out of the box.

that is NOT why i bought the marker.

i, as any NORMAL player would know that the gun doesnt make the player.

I purchased the ALMIGHTY dm4 cause my teammates got some and even though i still could keep up with them on the field, i wanted to be able to shoot as fast as them in the chrono and gay around with it. I also got it for 850, practically brand new and blank warranty. would you pass that up? doubit it

I agree, aside from some software issues 90% of the markers over $500 are goign to be the same for 98% of the people out there.

I shoot Shockers because i like there feel... not because they are perfect out of the box (I strip everyone down and 50% of the time remov metal shavings before ever attaching air). Find a marker you like, and use it.

good question jay... i have no idea to be honest. i am sure you already knew that though cause we have spoke before.. but yeah
