guys you just dont get the deep complexity and message behind paintballing
wake up sheeple
FUCK PAINTBaLL
lizard men, nwo, obama, etc
Whenever I played paintball everybody was just speed shooting at eachother. And all the matches were extremely small so after the first 1-2 minutes NOBODY moved at all. Everybody just kinda peaked out of cover every minute or two.
AKA PAINTBALLERS ARE COWARDS
Paintball has more annoying kids than airsoft in my opinion. Although I like both games.
[QUOTE=FalcoLombardi;31533577]Paintball has more annoying kids than airsoft in my opinion. Although I like both games.[/QUOTE]
Paintball has more from both ends of the annoying spectrum.
When I used to play, my games featured a lot of regular people, cool people. Then there were the dumbass coward kids that don't move from spawn and are in it because of call of duty and it's someone's birthday so they move around in a giant amoeba when they [B]do[/B] leave spawn, and then the super elitist 18 and up douchebags that laugh at you for not having the latest DYE NT/DM gun.
There are a lot of bros in paintball though. Just usually not enough to balance things out.
Yeah I mean paintball attracts more of the COD crowd or whatever. Most little kids who do play airsoft usually do it in their backyards or worse in the streets (in my neighborhood happened a couple times, clearsoft kiddies).
Anyways I'm probably the only person in this thread who likes Speedball in paintball.
Whats worse is that the last time I paintballed, literally 75% of my team was a birthday party.
Consisting of like 6 guys (cowards) and 6 girls who clearly did not want to be there/never seen or handled the experience of holding a (fake) gun or being shot at.
They all just kinda huddled up like a bunch of hypothermic cavemen behind a piece of plywood and never fired a shot the whole round.
Me, my friend, and another guy had to fend off the entire other team. We won, but I ran out of ammo and did a Banzai charge which ended up me getting shot 50+ times in the chest, with nothing but a T-shirt on.
In addition to this it didn't seem like these girls knew what was going to happen, because they were Muslim (no disrespect) and were all wearing pearly white head scarfs. Since they were playing paintball, of course they were gonna get very dirty.
Also they weren't wearing face masks only goggles.

[h2] REPENT[/h2]
I fucking hate paintball. Although, I'm forced to play it since I can't play airsoft (fucking parents are paranoid about me getting my skin pierced or some bullshit like that.)
Although, I've been seeing a shitload more camouflage and milsim and seeing less of speedball and orange people running in the woods. Wish I could play airsoft :saddowns:

True that. I can do a comparison right now.
[U]Airsoft[/U]
Guns, BBs, and some gear bought: ~$250-$500 (Gear and gun lasts for years if the gun is good)
Admission: $25
So airsoft is mainly plain cheap when you look at it from a minimalist perspective.
[U]Paintball[/U]
Paintball Gun: ~$350 (minimum)
Admission: $25
Box of Paintballs (for that field only): $90, 2000 balls each
Yeah, paintball is a shitload more expensive. I mean the guns look gay and look how much they're charging: [url]http://www.ansgear.com/Eclipse_2011_Ego_Paintball_Gun_s/2340.htm[/url]

Are you shitting me? I dont even like paintball anymore and i'm defending it from dumbass, necro posting morons like you. Paintball guns are not $350 minimum. You DO know that thats not what ALL paintball guns look like, right?! I got my kick-ass SP-1 with updated MOSFET and custom stock for $190. What the fuck did you get that costed $350?! And paintballs are maybe $45 per 2000 rd case. And airsoft is not THAT cost effective. Sure, my SCAR was $160, $30 less, But you need to factor in batteries, chargers, face protection, etc, which on my most recent purchase, i bought the SCAR, 2 mags, and a battery. At least $300, and i already had gear and ammo before this. But get to gear and thats the fucking money hole right there. Me? I run with the simplist kit i can get, as i run a rookie Stalker loadout. Its a tan work jacket, jeans, boots, and a ALICE belt with one 7.62 mag pouch. But if you dont intend on going simple like that, you dump WAY more on gear than anything else. So, you can see now that your a moron, think twice before shit posting, and do at least 3 comparisons from 3 different sources BEFORE posting "Statistics". And you cant talk about admission, when its different everywhere. I dont tolerate idiots, and i dont tolerate made up statistics to make an argument lopsided in the persons favor. Get your shit straight, and come back to me.
Both are equally expensive. Just in different ways
A necro is now five days?
I never saw this thread.

This is FP, when a thread is inactive for a while its pretty much dead.
[QUOTE=felix the cat;31640817]Both are equally expensive. Just in different ways[/QUOTE]
In the long run I'd say airsoft is cheaper. Once you have your gun, bb's are cheap. Paintballs are expensive as hell.
Unless you keep buying more gear or mags/accessories for your gun
True that, but that applies for paintball as well.
anyway I think we should let this terrible thread die at this point

umadbro? Damn. A good one costs $350, that's what I meant by minimum, buy one for less and odds are it's crap unless you're getting a Tippmann or a BT. I've played paintball before. Paintball is EXTREMELY expensive up in the NE. So a case is $90 up here.
Chill the fuck out bro.
P.S - I was going on mere basics on the comparison. No high tech intellect batteries and shit. Stock charger and battery (assuming it comes with one, a lot do unless you're getting ICS or KWA or some other high quality AEG provider.)
P.S.S - Sorry for reviving the thread :(

calm down bbydoll, no need to blow up over a disagreement
While I agree that paintball tends to be more expensive, that's a pretty stacked comparison. Paintball markers and airsoft guns tend to be roughly the same price- $150 for an entry model, $250-$350 for a good model, more than that if you want a competition-level gun. As for paint, it's hardly a valid comparison of airsoft and paintball as a whole if you're using ridiculously inflated prices from your corner of the woods. Most places I've played at charge $30-$45 for a case of paint.
So, '$350 (minimum)' is just wrong when you can get a functional Tippmann 98c or A5 for ~$100 (and if you mean price for a high-end marker, you should at least be consistent and do the same with your airsoft prices), and your price on paint is just wrong.
Not to mention admission is always cheaper with paintball, since with airsoft it's the only way they're making money. At my local field, $20 is admission for airsoft, while $25 for paintball is admission, marker rental, unlimited air, face mask rental, and a quarter case of paint. Obviously this varies from field to field, but paint is how paintball fields make money, and airsoft fields have to make up the difference somehow.
I think both sports have their strengths and weaknesses, but paintball isn't THAT much more expensive.

No a "good one" does NOT cost $350 MINIMUM. Like i said, i got my Smart Parts SP-1 with an updated MOSFET trigger system and adjustable stock, for none more than $190. Oh, and for the record, i LIVE in the NE, and i have not seen a case more than $60, and im talking PROFESSIONAL level paint here.
k guys shut the fuck up now ok thanks
the dick of this mick itches
Paintballers are dominant in Illinois. No airsoft dedicated fields, just paintball ones that allow airsoft sometimes. Also, paintball admission is $10 for the day while airsoft is $30 for the day. It makes me mad.
