Paintball did it while back

[miker]

I did paintball in early 2000s like 2001 then stopped seemed like it died after that and everyone got real guns :rofl:

Anybody pulling the trigger to get anger out and turning up velocity all the way to break skin?

I play Airsoft a lot, it's far better than Paintball imo.

I don't quite see how one is meant to determine if they've been hit or not. With paintball, it's almost a definite certainty of knowing, with pellets, there's no telling. (obviously never played it before, I believe it's banned in Aus, might be wrong)

You can feel that you've been hit and the person shooting can see because people usually flinch.

On loose, but thick clothing, paintballs will break even when there is not contact with the human body. However, I really doubt you would feel that with a pellet. Sure on the body, but on loose clothing, I don't think it would warrant a surrender. And this is especially in the heat of battle when adrenaline is pumping.

Many times in paintball, you would get someone on the shoe. That would warrant a surrender as it would leave a mark - I don't think you'd feel a pellet on the shoe.

But other than that and a few other trivial cases, it seems genuinely interesting and fun.

I want to play paintball for a serious sport so bad, but in my country you need to be 18 years old to sign up for a club.

I was invited to playin' paintball, But the guys i was gonna play with didn't have any protective vest or any of that crap, and i've seen before hand what paintballs does to the body. Not pretty.

It's not as bad as you think.
It hurts like heck but that goes away after a year or two.

Paint ball, i like to see where i hit my target and for me paint balls hurts alot more than airsoft making it more intense.

I should go dust out my Tippmann 98 custom(with extended barrel) and play some paintball. Almost perfect weather for it 😛 .
