My "Anti-Phantom"

[hs2000]

^I use to think that way, then I started playing pump, and sold all my semi's to buy more pumps. Now I know better.

^^^QFT FTW^^^

I felt that way also, now I run my pump quite a bit, have been on the field with 40 others, and be the only one with a pump and have no problems, then when I pick up the Naughty Dawg (my e cocker) it feels godlike

Have you noticed that you shoot less with your electro when you play semi?

I have.

I'll play pump all day, then pull out a semi of some kind, and I'll be playing like a pumper, only difference, i lay down strings instead of single shots, that, and i can power my way out of a situation

Well from this post its clear, you don't have a clue...

BUT being the nice person that I, here is one free of charge....

THE PLAYER MAKES THE MARKER, THE MARKER DOES NOT MAKE THE PLAYER.

What are you talking about the gun doesn't make the player? Of course it does! Without the gun, we'd all just be people running around in the woods wearing goofy masks!

I love pump. Tourney is fun and all, but I get bored of it too quickly. Pump is my anti-tourney. It's the exact opposite of it. Which I like.

Oh, and I have a P68-SC comming soon! I'm soo friggin' excited!

The field I play at is limited paint anyway, a hopper a 2 pods is all you can take on the field. So regardless you need to learn to conserve paint That doesn't count for SC play, can cally all the 10 round tubes you want, I usualy carry between 4 and 8

And yes, I do shoot much less paint in normal games because of the pump play, but if I NEED it, I do have the quick and easy 15bps lol

my little collection

I do run the cocker the most, Phantom 2nd, but anytime i'm playing one ball (no hopper, one ball in your hand OR marker at a time, carry paint in a pouch) the mag comes out

MY ANTI-PHANTOM! phantom, meet the trion. your new 84bps slinging buddy! try and pump that! good luck.

this is my other anti-phantom, meet mr. hammer (specialopspb)

this is my third anti-phantom, i dont know who the hell made this...

i fully understand, i have been slightly owned by a pumper, I just wanted to know if it is hard to be a pumper.

[Lenny]

Don, I think you're not quite understanding why I called it the "Anti-Phantom". I call it that because it is set up very simiar to a Phantom (Nelson based, vert ASA, stock where the back bottle is, etc), it's just VERY ghetto-fied, and it's a Brute.

I didn't mean it as my gun that "kills" Phantoms.

By the way, that Trion is wierd. How well do three Halos fit on there? I imagine they'd all bump into each other.

[Lenny]

Oh, and Don, in a world of semi's, it is very hard to play pump. That's what draws us to it. ROF is the most heavily relied on tool today. Playing pump kind of takes away that "krutch" (so to speak) and forces you to rely on the other "base" tactics more (like aiming, moving, communicating, etc).

But, albeit challenging, it's a hell of a load of fun!

I agree, ROf is overateded, I just owned a spyder electra 05 wich could do 30bps and now I own a minimag wich can do 10. I agree paintball is about preference and skill, not ROF. for example a kid on my team has a tboard for his ion and he overshoots everyone and sucks. It's wierd. but anyway the trion has three viewloader evo2's check it out. and they have a qloader for the middle one (not shown). But I do agree with you I just wanted to know if pump was hard, I think it would be really fun, I am going to try it some time. peace. By the way don miguel isn't my real name, its just a cool burrito company . Im not hispanic either. whatever.

[Lenny]

I know Don Miguel is a burrito company, just notice when people contact me via a thread, they say something like "Hey, Lenny..." or "Lenny, yo...", but Lenny is not my real name. So, following suit, I know you as Don Miguel, so I call you Don.

Interesting how the Egg's are mounted angled. I hate Evo's, so I didn't even think about them being used. (Kinda wierd how that works)

Also, a Spyder doing 30bps is just hype. No way. The internals are just way too slow. Not very many guns can actualy fire 30bps. Many can cycle at that speed, but not full enough to be called bps.

And... I'm not real sure if I'd consider a Spyder a good comparison for ROF. Maybe an E-Mag. Maybe an Intimidator. Maybe a Cyborg. Maybe even an Ion. But not a Spyder. There's just something about it that makes it seem so slow, whether or not it actually is.

well lenny I did own a spyder electra acs 05'

and it claimed to have capabilities of 30 bps. It had an all delerin bolt and a evo2 on it. One day I decided to max out it's capabilities. So I modified a drill head with a cardboard flap small enough to fit in the trigger frame (we couldent walk the trigger on semi 30 bps thats why we used the drill). When it would go around it would tap the trigger twice in the two response points of the trigger. and so we tested it out by listening to the selenoid dlicking before we put paint and air in it. It was shooting incredibally fast. we had a metrinome (digital) that could read 30 beats per second. We loaded the gun with paint and air, full batteried, and let it rip (by the way we sound recorded this to compare it too the metrinome, but I coulden't upload it to the computer). The gun jammed within 3 seconds so we were done. Then we matched it up with the metrinome and we discovered it shooting around 29-30 bps (using our judgement). It was incredibally fast, faster than any human could walk it, (without ramping, the spyder had no ramping abilities). it was pretty cool though. We discovered that for three straight seconds you copuld shoot 30 bps with a modified drill. So in conclusion the spyder is faster than you think. and in my opinion, the acs 05 is better that the 06.

[Lenny]

Yeah, but if you were to live fire it, the balls would be rolling out the barrel, thus not producing good firing cycles. Thus I said "maybe cycles per second".

[don miguel]

True, they kindof were when we fired it. As I said we had a break in the barell after three seconds of firing. So this would be totally useless to shoot 30 bps with this in a game, but it was fun testing it's capabilities.
