 Topic: let’s try this again.....
Posted: 21 July 2005 at 2:48am |
well, it seems our arguement was deleted....let's try this again...
All Im saying is that tippman doesn't carry the same quality as spyders...nor do they offer the large amounts of upgrades.
They can't compete...even in semi mode...with a spyder. The spyder's faster. Period.
They don't use as much gas as a tippy...more shots per tank.
They are 4 x's louder than a spyder...
They can't be rendered LP unless you buy $200 in prefabbed LP system...with a spyder...it's just a valve, reg, LPC and bolt.
If a person needs a stock, sight or 21" barrel on a paintball marker...they shouldn't be playing in the first place.
The Flatline system was designed as an attempt to compete with better markers...fooling noobs into thinking that "a 100' longer shot can mean the winning of a game'...kinda propaganda.

Uhmm...cause the 98 doesnt have a billion upgrades...

e-bolt

What is your source on this?
They are 4 x's louder than a spyder...
my friends Imagine is 100xs louder than my pro/carb
They can't be rendered LP unless you buy $200 in prefabbed LP system...with a spyder...it's just a valve, reg, LPC and bolt.
Try $110. And add up how much the valve, reg and LPC cost.
If a person needs a stock, sight or 21" barrel on a paintball marker...they shouldn't be playing in the first place.
What does that have to do with
anything? you can put stocks, sights and 21" barrels on spyders And if
you think a 21" barrel does anythign but hurt you, i pity you.
The Flatline system was designed as an attempt to compete with
better markers...fooling noobs into thinking that "a 100' longer shot
can mean the winning of a game'...kinda propaganda.
Sounds like you've been taken out by a flatline a few times....

Yes - I stole the whole thread by accident in my rush to clean up the poop. Please proceed with the discussion.
AND, for everybody's information, I just sent a letter to whatsisname's ISP. I fully intend to do this for any serious violations of our policy. So play nice.
And now back to your regularly scheduled program.

Actually Tippmanns have
tremendous upgrade potential. So do Spyders. Either can accept new
boards and such. Tippmann's just have more aftermarket parts available
to them. Pretty much anything you could put on a spyder can go on a
Tippmann (don;t count valves because the stock valve is the best.)
They can't compete...even in semi mode...with a spyder. The spyder's faster. Period.
You can shoot as fast as you can pull the trigger.
They don't use as much gas as a tippy...more shots per tank.
point

They are equally just as loud, not that being quiet ever mattered. How loud they are is determined by the barrel they use.
They can't be rendered LP unless you buy $200 in prefabbed LP system...with a spyder...it's just a valve, reg, LPC and bolt.
Gee... thats exactly what the
Tippmann LPK comes with. Don't forget with the spyder, you also need a
new ASA and hose set, since its all metrically threaded.
If a person needs a stock, sight or 21" barrel on a paintball marker...they shouldn't be playing in the first place.
How the heck did this ever become relevant.

better markers...fooling noobs into thinking that "a 100' longer shot

No its not really propaganda if
it actually works. Plus it doesn't really extend the shot range as
much, since the ball will still slow down and bounce. It actually
flattens out the trajectory, so that you can hit what you aim at,
rather than having to aim up and compensate.
|
Go buy Natural Newbie's 98. Its been modded with a double action ram,
and an Intimidator board set-up. So its not a Tippmann that shoots just
as fast a Timmy, which would be faster than a spyder without a similar
set-up.

well shockers def own tippys,
but its all about preference. i traded my tippy for a pump cause i can play both woods and speedball with it. i hated my flatline in speedball.
spyders= speedball
tippys= woodsball
imo. but i no longer have my spyder either, wasnt fast enough so im playing pump till i buy a new gun.

If
you seriously think a Tippmann is heavy, please, once you hit high
school in a few years, start lifting weights. Or if your lucky and they
let 7th graders in there to lift, do it now.
And where did Nape from from?? Theres not even a "n" in my name...

by the way, I own 1 spyder and 4 Tippmann's..... before you start trying to call me on a lack of experience.
Stock spyders are decent entry level guns because they are really really cheap. 98's are just more durable.
If you think Spyders are so superior then why are they almost universally used as rental guns?

He's not. I promise.
Until a few days ago, my profile said I was born on March 25, 1930.

Plentiful......
e-bolt what? the esp and ipi frames are still faster...without a modded switch.
my source on the gas usage is a full day of swapping guns with the guys I play with. The tippy I used, used up co2 (antisiphonned) twice as fast as my (then) stock spyder...was just over half the shots I can get with that spyder. That is my source.
we could put stocks and barrels on spyders but those of us with any brains...don't. Tippman started marketting 21' "sniper" barrels to fool noobs into buying them. In reality, the longer barrel is nothing more than a waste of good air/co2.
and I've never been taken out by a tippman...sorry to burst your bubble. I HAVE been by other spyders, angels, shockers and a phantom (once) but not the tipman.

Do
you have a really good memory, and saw every single person that saw you
to say that?? I doubt it. Or, have you only played once...

Tippmann does not make a 21 inch barrel. There are barrels that long that will fit a Tippmann, but the company that makes those barrels has a model with Spyder threads too.
