PSP caps at 15bps

[FragTek]

This is great... IMO this league should have a ROF cap, and 15 is a good one.

As long as one league stays uncapped, i'm happy :) I can't deny that it's intense watching teams rollin' 20+ bps on the field

this rule is good, psp made a good decision here.

enemy its not so easy to catch cheater boards. that means you hvae to open every gun at the event to make sure non of them have an advantage pb board. once you do that you have to make sure that when they go to the robot that they dont touch any buttons on the way there, ie ollie lang style.

This is dumb

This is the dumbest thing I have seen. I know 80% of paintballers out there think they can shoot 18 BPS or more. YOU CAN"t Not without cheating. So now we are going to limit the BPS but not regulate how they get there. WOW that makes sense. If any of you out there think 15 BPS is slow you need to be smacked. That is raining paint. 15 BPS = 900 rounds a minute. Do the math without reloading time that is still going to have people shooting more paint becuase the majority of people now in the tourney scene do not shoot over 12 BPS at the most if they don't have the bounce up. This is great for paint manufacturers.

Ok

Ok I take some back I see the no bounce thing. But if they can't regulate bouncing markers now how are they going to do it in the future? Still dumb rule. Start cracking down on cheaters then we don't have to buy new boards for our markers. I can set my DM4 to 15 BPS on the marker but is that going to pass a robot? Not sure.

This is soo true. People in this thread talk like this is going to slow people down. I laugh. 15bps is completely ripping. There was even a guy talking like he can now be able to compete with his mech cocker. I don't think so. Maybe a 10bps cap would be slowing players down.


I still support it though, because cheater boards are unenforceable.

Maybe one day we will finally see paint limiting.

Note

If anyone has a tippmann E-grip. Put that on FUll auto. That is capped at 15 BPS at the fastest setting. That is hauling butt. And don't flame me becuase I have a tippmann Egrip they rock. I love mine for rec ball. I also have two DM5s and a DM4 for tourneys just to be cool.

at the last nppl event ollie lang was suspected of cheating with his gun so on the way to the robot he pressed a button on his shocker to go back to semi.

Watch yesterday's NXL match.....limiting it to 15 has really killed paint sales! (heavy sarcasm).

This is a good thing, and has been predicted for a long time coming. It will not change the game at all, but gives us the protection of self regulation.

Good Move!

wow your so agg can i have your autograph?? jfwy

[ilikePB]

That's just great. So are they are going to buy everyone new boards to comply with it? My Cyborg does not have anything to adjust the r.o.f. and there are no drop in aftermarket boards, meaning I have to drop like $250+ to get Pred 2 or something of the like installed. Totally ghey imo. Not that 15bps is slow or anything, but because there are guns out there that the stock board does not have r.o.f. adjustmetns so they all have to buy new boards to cap it at 15 to play.

check this out from the other thread on this....

again people....check out that link.....there is no 15bps cap

[VFX_Fenix]

And I still remember once uppon a time when the industry said they'd never produce a board capable of more than 13 bps... Ramping, Bouncing, cheating in general will continue to be a problem, but if there's a bps cap, hey, at least once everyone's rolling, it'll be a level playing field

Serries Specific Boards (i.e. Vapor Works NXL) would be the ideal method of getting around all of the hullababaloo surrounding cheating through PCB's. So long as the software is free and the PCB's can be made by the manufacture's of the guns, it's a perfectly legitimate way of ensuring fair play from the equipment. The NHL has limits on how much curve the blade of a stick can have, the MLB has rules reguarding bats, the PGA has a whole lot of rules reguarding equipment, as does the ABC. These regulations are in place to ensure that no individual's equiment provides an "unfair" advantage (i.e. corked bats, overly biased bowling balls, assisting devices for golf).

However, because of the very nature of the equipment we use it's virtually impossible to stop all forms of PCB cheating. Trigger codes, rebooting, buttons, etc. are all means to access these cheating functions, and if the user is careful, their cheating will go completely un-noticed and be impossible to detect or unlock by anyone who doesn't know what they're looking for.

But what about the HAir question???

[awd]

Ya this is sort of pissing me off. I can shoot 15-16 consistantly and have only been trying to twalk a trigger for about 7months. In other words I don't plan on staying at 15-16bps without ramp or bounce.
