I play woods ball and I am no sniper, I used to think that scopes sucked in paintball too, until I played against this guy who had a hop up barrel and a scope ( I don’t know what power), so it turns out that scopes only suck if you don’t know how to use them, oh and by the way all you people who think that snipers suck because they hide and crawl around and stuff, just because you do that it doesn’t make you a sniper, this guy never did that stuff, he ran w/ his team and owned us all, and there is not one guy on our team who is anywhere close to being a newb.
ps. If this guy was just longballing and getting "lucky" hits, then he had a whole lotta luck. Edited by MT. Vigilante |

Hmm, a palm leaf ghille. The problem with adding natural camouflage to a suit, bunker, etc., is that it doesn't always look natural when you're done. For starters, natural camoflage, if it's removed from the plant/ground eventually dies and that dead spot sticks out among the living plants. I know that probably doesn't apply to paintball, but I just wanted to get it out of the way to save someone else the time of pointing it out. Also, certain plants grow in certain ways. If all the bushes of a certain type in a certain area have leaves that grow up at a 60 degree angle, the oddly shaped lump with leaves going in every direction is going to look suspicious. Quite a few years ago I was part of an inspection team evaluating a base defense exercise in South Florida. I watched a young man posted on a observation/listening post with a military working dog build and disguise a hasty scrape for himself. For defense purposes his work was textbook perfect. Unfortunately, his camouflage abilities were not on par with his other skills. Every fern in the area grew upright, so the ones he had placed horizontally to disguise his postion stood out to anyone within visual range of his position.

Come on guerilla tactics??? WTF?!? So you blend in with the local non-playing population? You have non-players on the field with you acting as civillians? I guess that this could work in a scenario game... Hit and run tactics aren't guerilla, they are hit and run, or even harassing. A totally different thing than guerilla. If you are going to try and use a military term, try and look it up so that you can use it correctly. Oh, that does apply to the word sniper as well. |

Well, As we do not know what a "snier" is, we wont contradict you. Lets not turn this into a sniper debate, you already know the answer EDIT : Good lord, Pindrop-DHL- why did you bump this really old thread? I didnt even notice

hmmm, it could work, but anything looks off people will know, it'll probably end up not being worth the effort put into it.

i think that would be the crummiest ghille suit there is....if yur gonna make it out of palm leaves yur gonna get poked by them so much when yur laying down and i just think that it would be a really bad idea and i wouldnt hide in a bunch of palm leaves either because the leaves would poke me too. it would just be the worst ghille suit there is....sry

no the person who sneeks up behind you is called a lone wolf. snipers are marksmen but there arent any paintball marksmen. quit hiding in bushes and go help your team

Scopes don't work with paintball. But, I consider someone who stays back, sneaks behind you, and shoots you right in the back a snier, especially when you can't find them. In woodsball snipers do exist, but it's a hybrid sniper if you know what I mean.
