Rant in Airsoft
29 August, 2011, 20:23
i'm not sure if this is the right title for this but here we go...
i'm walking in my local mall when i noticed a paintball stall, they trying to sell and promote their hobby to the public. i was curious and looked at this album full of pictures and noticed a prop chopper, tank and lots more!
i remember when i was paintballing before, we played in our local site and a H-34 helicopter is used for a blackhawk down game, another site have a cessna light plane and a M-113! wow!
yes, i know, in longmoore we have ruins, train and burned cars, in urban assault have tanks but not enough.
we spend lots of money to look and feel like real soldiers, we're playing with 1/1 reliplicas of the rifles and even tried to imitate the recoil of it!
now, do we have a site that have it all and when you play on that site, you will say ''wow that was very good and very realistic! i will definetely come back again!''
let me know...

Re: Rant in Airsoft
Are you asking if anyone knows of an airsoft site that is as good as that paintball site you refer to vaguely? I'm confused, again.

Basically he wants to know if there is a site out there that has the whole package in terms of abandoned helicopters and tanks etc to give that extra bit of realism!

Re: Rant in Airsoft

Re: Rant in Airsoft
Paintball is far more accepted, widespread and expensive than airsoft and therefore takes in more revenue so its hardly surprising that airsoft sites struggle to put in place the same sort of infrastructure. My local paintball site is just completing a full wildwest town!

Re: Rant in Airsoft
What paintball sites do you know that take place in WW2 military bunkers and military/police training sites? I think you just need a new site.

Re: Rant in Airsoft
bit of a generalisation there m8 perhaps, both paintball sites I know of are your standard few props/bases in the middle of a forest, whereas I know of quite a few airsoft sites that are based in highly unique settings, the mall, drakelow bunker, anzio and thats just the one firm that Im connected with
id also be a bit dubious about random photos taken for a paintball brochure as well

Re: Rant in Airsoft
Airsofters are a lot tighter than Painballers and will not spend the money unless it is on the newest most expensive must have.
Apart from that who the hell is going to spend that much money on props? Most Airsoft sights I have been to are un manned except for the walk on days and odd corp days. So things would just get wrecked.
If you would like to see moving helecoptors and tanks, most people like the realism but draw the line at getting squashed...lol.
Have you ever been to Carrerick?
