1.Why do you use a high-end gun ie. DM3/4/5, Shocker, Emag, Viking, and etc.? Advantages of using high-end guns?

because i have the money and dont mind spending it on a nice gun.


2. What talent do you see in tourney paintball when they allow the use of ramping/full auto modes or even nowmal electro's vs. use of mech guns even pumps which one do u think involves more talent to win with?

usually in tournaments its fast electros vs. fast electros. only difference is if you are using illegal modes, or are extremly skilled on the trigger(which most people are not)

3.Why do you play paintball(for what reason like what u get out of it)?

I play paintball because it is fun. Its even more fun when you win.

4.What is ur view on the prices that they charge for paintball related equipment do u think it is worth it or overpriced?

how dedacated are you to paintball? I dump most of my cash into paintball(YAY for minimum wage). I am not old enough though to get a nice job or even move out, so I do not have those expenses like apartment car and such.

thank you any answers welcome because i was kinda stumped when asked these questions


Ok im done.

1. i use an emag because i have always liked the look and feel, only on semi electro i play fair with no cheat modes or annything. i like my emag because it has mech and e mode.

2. you need more talent with a pump or a mech, because there is actually a pull and you have to aim. you also need to get your timing right and where to move, how and when.

3. i like it because i can get out with my friends and shoot some people, pain is not that bad for me, shooting someone and getting shot at with short sprints is good for my stress levels... also i like an adrennaline rush.

4. new stuff is expensive, the ions have ruined the resale value, the good guns are not worth buying new annymore because some people are willing to sell them off cheap.

1. I use a marker than I feel comfortable playing with and one that will have capabilities comparable to the other markers being used on the field. Call it peer pressure.

2. Talent on a tournament paintball team is not how much paint each player can shoot but how well the players work together in a group. There are no superstars on my team but we have been playing together for a long time and we work well together, no single player wins a tournament.

3. i like playing a competitive sport. Its only one of a few I participate in.

4. The prices are probably higher than they should be, however most hobbies where you need equipment, golf, skiing, etc... are expensive.

1. I dont consider my gun "high-end". I dont have a "high-end" gun because i can get a gun that i love, might not shoot as fast, or be as light, but just as accurate, and a hell of a lot more durable. My personal preference for fractions of what a "high-end" guns costs.

2. Ramping markers and such take less skill, as you can see all it takes is more paint than the other guy to get him out. In mech play more strategy is involved, and IMO more quick moves. I cant say for pump play(never played) but i think it would take the most amount of skill.

3. Why do i play paintball? Well, i really dont play that much. But i stick with it, because i love to buy/sell/trade.

4. I think the prices are fair. If every gun cost the same amount of money...then guns wouldnt be unique. I think they could drop the prices on paint, but other than that, i think the prices are fine the way they are.

all the answers are what im looking for and this is pretty much how i answered them myself especially the "adrenaline rush from paintball" thats wat i said also

thanks guys keep em coming

[doober]

sorry for two post in a row (but this is my thread)

Well i got another question i myself have an emag and love it, but i was wondering wat is the point of having a high end gun and being able to shoot 10-15bps at some one instead of 4-10Bps or wat ever u get with a mech not just a ult mag either

ok heres some questions that i got asked by my friends dad(my friend plays paintball like me)

1.Why do you use a high-end gun ie. DM3/4/5, Shocker, Emag, Viking, and etc.? Advantages of using high-end guns? Because I can afford it, it's more comfortable, more reliable, faster, more efficient, more consistent (therefore more accurate), and because I can.

2. What talent do you see in tourney paintball when they allow the use of ramping/full auto modes or even nowmal electro's vs. use of mech guns even pumps which one do u think involves more talent to win with? There are different skills with each style of play, just because you can shoot full auto 20bps, doesn't mean you can hit anything.

3.Why do you play paintball(for what reason like what u get out of it)?I play it for the experience, going to the paintball field, the store, or even watching a movie brings back memories. All the silly antics, all the fun you had. The challenge of trying to win. Everything about paintball is why I play. You forget everything when you go to the paintball field. Not a single god damn thing matters except having fun with friends and blasting them off the field. I actually enjoy setting up the field during the week, even if I don't get a chance to play it. I get to determine where things go, and how everything is setup and how it's going to be played. I don't get paid or anything, I do it because I love paintball and I want others to enjoy it as much as possible. I want everyone to have fun and have a good time.

4.What is ur view on the prices that they charge for paintball related equipment do u think it is worth it or overpriced? I know it's over priced, but I pay it because I realized that it's the one way this support will succeed and grow. Until we reach "the big-time" we won't be able to buy paint for $10 a case, buy the best marker for under $500. It just won't happen.

thank you any answers welcome because i was kinda stumped when asked these questions

Hope that helped... or something...

[Beemer]

can u answer them?
i did but then he would prove my point wrong

Well what were Your answers??

1.Why do you use a high-end gun ie. DM3/4/5, Shocker, Emag, Viking, and etc.? Advantages of using high-end guns?

Because it solves the problems of the old day. [Short stroking and ball breaks due to miss feeds. Eyes, lvl10 etc..] Not for ROF. No modes for me baby.... 1 S 1 P

2. What talent do you see in tourney paintball when they allow the use of ramping/full auto modes or even nowmal electro's vs. use of mech guns even pumps which one do u think involves more talent to win with?

Good one..........I see no talent if its not 1 S 1 P. An A-Team[pump] could compete with an e-gun team[1 S 1 P] IMO. You need TEAM talent to Win. An A-Team with less will beat a B-Team with more most of the time.

3.Why do you play paintball(for what reason like what u get out of it)?

Nother good one. Ill leave out all the basic BS like its a team thing and it clears my mind and all that. Its a drug its called Adrenaline. Know how much is in ya and how many it could kill if applied directly? In laymens terms its a Rush. Paintball aint the only way to get it.


4.What is ur view on the prices that they charge for paintball related equipment do u think it is worth it or overpriced?

Some is and some is. You just have to be educated and informed before you spend

Peace Out

1.Why do you use a high-end gun ie. DM3/4/5, Shocker, Emag, Viking, and etc.? Advantages of using high-end guns?

I do not use a high end gun, but If I had the cash to, I would, they feel nicer, generally higher quality.

2. What talent do you see in tourney paintball when they allow the use of ramping/full auto modes or even nowmal electro's vs. use of mech guns even pumps which one do u think involves more talent to win with?

More talent to win is obviously the one where you have an inherent drawback, such as SC vs electro. But in a game of ramping VS ramping, it removes one barrier (trigger speed) to focus on other skills.

3.Why do you play paintball(for what reason like what u get out of it)?

Fun.

4.What is ur view on the prices that they charge for paintball related equipment do u think it is worth it or overpriced?

It's worth it, otherwise I wouldn't be paying the money would I?

[magman#1]

usually when people ask me why i need a $800 paintball gun when a $150 does the same thing. i ask them why you buy a 40,000 car when a 4,000 one does the same thing. it does the same thing in it gets you around, but it isn't anything near the quality or performance.
