rolex_philippines Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 list the pros and cons of airsoft and paintball. My opinion: Airsoft: Pros-more realistic-cheaper bullets cons-"honesty game" Paintball:-no need to be honest (kitang kita na if hit) cons-expensive bullets-not realistic ang mga guns What are your insights?

Nooblet Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I dont think guns need to be realistic for a game to be fun. Its a sport, not a war Quote Link to comment
hitme!! Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 i think this thread must be renamed.. AIRSOFT OR PAINTBALL??WHAT IS MORE EXCITING?? Quote Link to comment
homy Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 airsoft less expensive!no evidence of a hit! paintball more expensive!obvious hit marks! but it for you to choose. really can't tell if you hit someone if there is no mark. so many liers out there, pride exists. my own experience in paintball, played with someone i don't know i already hit him i was very sure but still fires back. when the game was over i saw the mark i was able to hit him. but then too much pride don't want to admin he got hit. so much more with airsoft with less evidence of hits. but again still choices.

Wipers get booted out of our home field especially if caught by the refs. Both games are fun, but as stated Paintballs leave marks hence more difficult to cheat. Quote Link to comment

james_bandido Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 hmm ... another of those paintball and airsoft threads ... sigh ... similar threads like this were already existent and closed in some airsoft or paintball forums as they always spark unwanted flames from either side ... being both a paintballer or airsofter, its just basically the same for me ... i've been playing wargames since 1986 and i get the same fullfillment whether i play paintball or airsoft ... after all, its just a recreational sport or hobby ... the adrenalin rush is the same ... of course, the main difference is the equipment (and costs) ... but you cant compare apples with oranges ... cheers !!!

trillian Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Pro Airsoft Its as close as I can get to becoming a soldier or mercenary, and at my puny 5' 2" this is a fantasy come true. Even the pain is worth it. I get to gear up and feel the rush. Quote Link to comment

cyner Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Brod.... Gusto mo talaga maging sniper? Pwede pa naman.... Di ba nag kwento ako sa inyo? Naghahanap ng "A Few Good Men" ang grupo namin... Uwah!!! Pati women. :flowers: I was a paintball player before I got into airsoft. Actually honesty does exist in both games. In paintball a person can discreetly wipe the paint off and say it's just a "splatter". At Airsoft it's the "Zombie" thing. So I guess that honesty is still the golden rule in both games So pointers, aside from the adrenaline rush and the price tag difference(airsoft is cheaper) here are the differences: Paintball 1.) exotic Buck Rogers guns2.) Hide and seek type shooting 3.) Ammo limited to your budget4.) Have to rent most of the gears. Airsoft1.) realistic guns2.) Military Simulated(MILSIM) games3.) Cheap BBs(ammo)4.) you can own your own gears hence you know the behavior of you AEG these were the reason why I moved to airsoft. :cool: Quote Link to comment
