As for the original poster there is a mask called the VForce Vantage Fieldvision in which there is no foam, instead there is a rubber material that is also found in swiming goggles. I would assume that means your face could get closer to the mask, however I have never used it. And just some hints: a flatline is more for laying down cover fire than for sniping, i hope you have a red dot sight, and have fun

What the hell are you talking about! I have a 98c with a drop foward, stock, and double trigger. So before you open your mouth do a little research.

hahaha. that's is a funny burn...

There can be sniping in paintball. But in Speedball? No way in hell can there be sniping. but when your playing woodsball and climbed up ands hide in a tree, it can be sniping. end of discussion.

okay i know not many people are gunna belive me but woodsball and scenario sniping does exist i know all players use stealth thats an extreamily obvious thing but sniping isnt just about stealth its a style of play snipers are slow moving players who shoot when they know the time is right and use stealth as best as they can to stay in the game paintball sniping isnt about freakishly long range shots its about accuracy patience stealth and lots and lots of practice, paintball sniping and military sniping are 2 whole differant things they both use stealth and shoot at optimal time but one shoots from far away gathers info watches enemy movments and that kinda thing paintball sniping is about shooting accuratly for 1 shot 1 kill and normal paintball ranges from a hidden position and remaining hidden.

Marking this for future refference

snipers are slow moving players who shoot when they know the time is right

Cause the rest of us just keep firing nonstop and dont wait till we have an angle . . .

and use stealth as best as they can to stay in the game paintball

So basically we have your average joe who uses stealth, I thought you said sniping wasnt "just about stealth"?.

 sniping isnt about freakishly long range shots its about accuracy

Accuracy. . . from a paintball gun?  Number 1 : Your lucky if you can shoot something 30 feet away with a paintball gun.  I would consider 50 feet to be the max effective range period.  Number 2 : your talking about KIDS playing.  I dont care if you've played paintball for years, I dont care if you are teh awsomzorz sniper in some game, you dont have the skills to acctually shoot a gun accuratly.

 patience

You mean camping?

stealth

Oldsoldier said it best about stealth and snipers "Why do the "sniper" crowd think that they are the only ones who "sneak" or use "stealth" on the field. I guess the rest of us travel with a brass band and flags waving just so we get noticed."

and lots and lots of practice,

Cause the rest of us dont practice at all . . .

paintball sniping and military sniping are 2 whole differant things they both use stealth and shoot at optimal time but one shoots from far away gathers info watches enemy movments and that kinda thing paintball sniping is about shooting accuratly for 1 shot 1 kill

I covered the accuracy part, I think its safe to say that unless hes standing in a field with his arms spread while a "sniper" crouches 10 feet away and aims, you arent getting a 1 shot 1 kill deal.

and normal paintball ranges from a hidden position and remaining hidden.

HAHAHAHAHAH


By the way, its very difficult to take a person seriosuly who only used punctuation twice and no capitalization whatsoever.

EDIT : Another reason I have a hard time taking your points seriously in this thread :

And does that mean we are supposed to talk like "hey dud dd u c tat snipp-er dud!roflmafo".  Why do you think you have english class? To fill up free time?

i agree other players do use stealth and practice but nothing compared to a sniper,

The average woodsballer wears camo, his gun is also camoed.  Do snipers have "Acme Invisible Pants" or something that makes them so "sneaky sneaky"?

o and sorry i guess ill try to b like u and spend my time learning how to type in a correct manner instead of practicing paintballing

You might find that to be a wise move.  Few companies will pick an "uBeR 1337 k3w1 5nipp-3r dUd3!11" over someone who can type in, and speak, English.



Further more you havent dissproven or attacked any of my claims.
