i saw a post for this topic but i culdent find it so i started my own. ok for singel shot guns like a sniper rifle . i think it wold be reall awesome if you took a A-5 and took the cyclonic feen of so you just have a open hole . and you can feed each ball manualy . it wold be alot easyer with 98 tho. if some one culd make a 98 that has to be cocked everytime that wold be really realistic . have like a bipod and a stock and it wold be really kool . single shot paintball tell me what you think ------------- im not a sniper . im a HIDDEN RIFLE MEN |

lol when me and my brothers/father first got our first guns we used to play games with only 10 paintballs per game. and when playing with horrible brass eagles, its near imposible to hit someone. but as a result it made us very patient and non-trigger happy. -------------

As would be having any kind of electric firing system which would allow one to fire faster than other people.* *Sarcasm -------------

| My cousin is a wimp and he loves playing civil war because it is harder to get close up where the paintballs hurt him more. |

Yes, and if you have an electro with a double trigger and you know somewhat what you are doing, you can shoot faster than everyone else and take all the fun and skill out of the game as well.* The only way everyone would be equal (equipment wise) on the field would be if there was a rule that limited equipment used during the game to being no better than the least effective marker present. Since some eight year old with a Talon would probably want to play, I guess we should all just limit ourselves to using Talons; just to be fair.* Better yet, to be really fair, we should institute a rule that states that the worse a player someone is, the more hits it takes to get them out of the game. For instance, Joe Noob requires 10 quarter-sized hits to eliminate while Tommy Taktikal is out if he is hit with even the most minimal amount of spray.** Furthermore, since it isn't fair that some people are more tactically effective than others, all those sneaky guys should have to wear hunter orange in the woods.*** Guess what, paintball is a lot like life. Neither is fair and people just have to get used to that and deal with it. If someone is willing to spend the time it takes to learn to really walk a trigger and put out tons of paint, more power to them. Their reward for that effort is their ability to dominate certain situations on the field. If someone forks over the money for a Flatline/Apex and practices with it until they can use it very effectively in all situations, again they have earned the right to do so. If I'm on the field with either of these individual's and know that they posess capabilities that I don't, then I just have to compensate by playing to my strengths instead of theirs. If I'm going to whine about fair I might as well leave the field, sell my gear, and play a nice board game. Edited Note: Decided to add the following true story from last year that relates to this topic. After a game in which I used my 98 w/Flatline to pin down (not eliminate) several members of the other team until they could be maneuvered on and eliminated by my team members, one of them came up to me and complained. His main complaint was that it wasn't fair I could hold them off with my F/L while they couldn't even get paint near me before at least the second bounce. I looked at his fancy electro w/Freak kit and Halo and asked him why he hadn't got a 98 or an A5 and put a F/L on it, to which he replied, "This is what I want to play with." My response, which he was unimpressed with, was "So you made a conscious choice to let me out-range you?" My point is, we both selected how we wanted to be equipped, but he let me set up a situation where my gear had the advantage. There's nothing unfair about that, he just should have played smarter. *Sarcasm **More sarcasm ***Even more sarcasm -------------

Didn't say you had all that, I'm just pointing out how anyone can complain about any advantage as being "unfair". -------------

I agree 100%. I usually break out the Phantom for those occasions. Edited Note: Cheating may be too harsh a word, but lighting up newbies is still wrong (and not all that much fun.) -------------

Meh. I won't go out of my way to stalk them, but I'm not gonna go easy on them either. I'm just gonna play like I always do, and if they don't like it, not my problem. There once was a kid in a powered wheel chair playing. I admire his bravery, but if he shot at me, I shot back at him. He later confessed to having a great time. It all depends on the player. ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"
