to me, i tend to laugh at the people in scenario games that go full auto. while i agree that it can be useful if used correctly, but the majority of people that might use F/A or ramping, don't. they think that if the first 50 balls don't go through the tree. the 51st ball will. so be it. i don't have to pay for their paint.

during big games or scenario games, i use my woods electro(weather depending- rain or real ugly, mechanical cocker or Mag), a B2k sleeper that set on semi(12bps max) with a Revy. yeah, it can go faster, but i don't need it. i can't walk that trigger(too stiffly sprung) it keeps me from wasting my own paint and makes me think about a better move, or just move and not hide behind a trigger. its light, compact, great efficiency, and simple to use. i like it cause its easy to shoot, relatively quiet and i like it. i can go faster and more expensive, but the gun fits my style of play for the woods. i can play the BPS war, but i like to go into the final battle with more paint than the hosers on F/A.

so to me, if those that play within the rules(big leap of faith here) want to go balls to the wall at 15, 13 or whatever the limit is. be my guest. i'll stick to my slow speed on something that gets mistaken for an Impulse(grrr, i hate that) and remember that my head is on a swivel, my feet aren't planted to the ground, and hiding behind a trigger is no defense for a bigger tree than what your shooting at me from.

I laughed also when I read it...because I have been there behind the tree before all by myself with a team bearing down..
"25 bps... I'd just have a picnic behind a tree till they run out of paint. People that do that get at least an extra 5 shots to the back as they are walking off."


But to counter your time examples.....three players most likely would not be shooting at the same time to keep you bunkered....at least two would be keeping you busy and would be working on you at angles and not full auto all the time but alternating....but spraying your postion enough until the other player has a good angle or you are hit from the fire fight....

Most teams that use A-5's ....aren't sporting 200 round hoppers....Not since they have 400 round hoppers..unless it is a group of newbies... If not tippys..the they use the larger "backman" loaders...

A-5's dont shoot 28 bps. The argument that John is making is that this this so amazing because it could POTENTIALLY shoot 28bps, and could empty a Q-loader in 4 seconds, so you're point about a 400 round loader is even more moot. No field in their right mind is going to let some schmuck walk onto the field and start hosing people at 28bps ESPECIALLY at night play. Show me a field that does and I'll definitely make sure I never play there.

Edit: Yes I would bonus ball a jerk shooting 28bps. You can't tell me that he isn't going to bonus ball someone shooting that fast.

Actually, I've heard of them getting that high with an Egrip and the TechT upgrades for the Cyclone.

I still laugh at your post about a picnic behind a tree......

If your talking A-5 firearm? or Paintball?....if paintball...I personally seen that on a chrono.

You did state tree right....then change to bunker right?....and you did not state one on one...that's my point.......

I don't think you can achieve what a team does with 15 bps to a team that does 5 bps for a whole scenario....if so where's your team and what awards/points you have and when/where is the finals...I'll want to see this.......

Most are posting about the post I said about 25 bps at a practice....

Of couse no field would let this happen...

So whats the point?

I just don't think anyone should be fostering this as a good and acceptable practice.

[RealtorTommy]

laughable point on the picnic.......

[Harbinger[TG]]

Is there actually a hopper out there that could keep up with that ROF?
