yah great review at warpig.com

it is gonna be aweomse..but 90 bucks i think..so i will just go to a local tourney and win one

i dont think i would spend 90 bucks on a hopper

[Ebonclaw]

30 BPS?! That's faster than our friend the warp feed! That's faster than Speedy Gonzales on heroin! How do they get the balls into the wheel that fast?

[AllOleander]

Gravity.

The balls drop on to the wheel, but the wheel has enough sections that it is always filled in advance.

That hopper probably looks like its on crack when it starts going..i wonder how much noise it makes.

[p8ntballer04]

does anyone know where I can see a pic of it? and where at warpig.com does it talk about it? 30 bps that's pretty fricken fast. can any gun even shoot that fast?

[AllOleander]

many electros can shoot that fast, but they haven't been able to shoot that fast because there hasn't been a loader that could load that fast until now.

it would probably chop enless it has some type of ACE system or extremely low pressure controlling the bolt (matrix trinity) etc.

[ry_goody]

The Force Five cocker is very capable of 22+ rounds per second. I also think the emag can shoot that fast.

[FallenAngel1237]

the bob long intimidator can shoot faster than 30 bps with the sob(semi only board), but i doubt anyone could fire so quickly:) :D

[jdw_56]

why aren't they popular then if they shoot so well? why is everyone out buying cockers and mags and angels when the intimidator is around? i am actualy seeing an increase in intimidators....

[The Billionare]

Timmies are cool and people are starting to find out about it. They are just too pricey, but then again they can go toe to toe with angles. I would rather have a cocker, but the feel is the most important thing IMO. I would buy an angel if I could afford one, tho.

[TheManofMags]

Go to www.odysseypaintball.com (http://www.odysseypaintball.com/)

They have like 6 videos of the HALO in action. Its on an Automag with the hyperframe on full auto set on 16 balls per second, and shooting fine, check it out!:)

[AllOleander]

Holy crap thats fast!! Imagine 22bps by a matrix!! ahhh!

would hate to be hit by that stream of balls!!

[spray_and_pray]

does anyone know if they are comin out with different colors ever

[AllOleander]

Of Matrices??

ACP custom matrices have blood red and blue anno...

Synergy matrices have a nice blue looking anno...

and Shocktech matrices have a silver looking anno..

also there are Team Image matrices that are silver anno i believe. (they are regular matrices)

Look at my other thread where i have posted the Synergy, ACP, and Shocktech matrices..

[spray_and_pray]

well thanks for that info:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

but i was talkin about the hopper:laugh: :laugh:

pshhhhhtt!!! ******* i was talking about the matrix then you ask that how am i suppoesd to know..????

[spray_and_pray]

yeah i know but how about it does anyone know about colors

[Easy Target]

The guys in the videos aren't wearing any paintball goggles, tsk tsk!:eek: Still, the Halo looks like it performs totally awesome, can't wait to see one for real.

[AllOleander]

They were just shooting a board..they weren't shooting at each other..goggles were not necessary in that situation

[flyingdeadbody1]

yeah i dont go in my backyard when im shooting around with goggles on...ill just scare all the neighbors and they will think im about to assasanate them

[KoRnMaN]

Yea as soon as you switch over to electro's you don't feel safe with out goggles on imo.:)

[AllOleander]

hah, true..if a gust of wind comes and hits your trigger, it will fire! :eek2:

[KoRnMaN]

Yea one time I was playing and we were walking back from a game at out field and I was holding my gun and thump it shot and wized a guys mask from 2 feet to the left of me but he didn't say nothin he acted like it didn't even happen. Thats the way paintball should be when it comes to commen sence accidents lol.

[Psycosis!]

is it just me or in the clips did the paint they where shooting look thin?

cos you could still see the wrighting through the paint!

i mean i only seen one type of paint and you couldn;t see S*** through it if you splatet a board like that

but hey might just be british paint compared to us

[Ebonclaw]

Keep in mind that that's just a mag with a hyperframe. Wait till they put it on Angels, Mtrices, and the other, faster markers. Take a look at the clear elbow and you can see just how fast it feeds. It's scary man. I don't think the warp feeds that fast.

[AllOleander]

...Ahhhh Sweetness!!

[AngrySloth]

My Uncle Scott's friend designed the H.A.L.O. loader.
(Maybe I'll get one for free.) :)

[The Billionare]

I want that hopper. I have an egg and warpig shows you the inside of the loader, the one thing I didn't like was that it appeared to have holes in the wheel instead of slots. I hope that makes sence. The eggs wheel is shaped like a ninja star, but then again with the halo design it may prevent jamming. It also might cut paintballs in half, but I like what I saw on those videos, a cooler looking hopper that works just like mine, only faster.

[Paco]

I'm a skeptic, and when I read that this thing could feed 30bps I about fell out my chair! But I wanted to know so I read the Pig's article and, not to burst everyone's bubble, but I found I was right, it's not that fast. At the very bottom in the fine print it says 16bps. And the test results from the Warpig ballistic labs thingy don't credit it with that many. But after watching and drooling over all the videos, I gotta admit I want one! And still, 16bps is quick if it can do it!:eek:

[Paco]

I was confoozed about the warpig lab test, that was the Richochet I was thinking of. Sorry before anybody jumps me.:crazy:

[AllOleander]

I believe the HALO can feed 18-19bps and up to 30 W/ upgrades.. they probably have 300$ worth of upgrades on just your hopper .. bah =[

[simon woodstock]

you'd think 30 bps would break the balls in your gun. gravity feeds i think up to 16 in some cases, w/ a regular rise only 13 and change bps, so thats like throwing the balls down, think about how fast 30 is. and it's a major rip, they sell you the initial hopper, then you have to pay hella extra money to get more bps, i don't like it one bit., think about how fast 30 bps is. thats like taking a pod opening the top and flipping it over.

[simon woodstock]

uhhh, was i watching the same videos as you guys? the clear elbow showed how many balls they skipped. everytime the stop shooting they skipped a ball, watch video 205, watch the elbow, even in the videos they put on the site it skipps balls, they probly chopped a lot too, maybe it was because they shot so fast but it looked like there was a lot of goo coming out the barrel. so i dunno if it can get 30, it has trouble getting 16 consistently

[KoRnMaN]

You people are nutz j/k. Do you relize after a certain point on bps it is impossible for the bolt to open fast enough to even get another ball in to shoot? So why in the hell would you need 30 when most people use guns that shoot about 11-14 bps (whats the point) and dont say it just looks cool and I want to buy one to show off because then you could all hook up a tank to it or something. Im thinking its like a scam on the gun company's part.

[AllOleander]

Well, the 30bps is a gimmick. But it can consistantly feed 16-18bps stock. No hopper can do this. The warp feed can, but some people dont like the feel and balance of the warp feed. This is supposed to be a new hopper that can feed the fastest of electros. Although, I think I will stick w/ the 11bps feeding Revolution.. because the HALO is too big IMO to play front .. It is just too big, and I am going to stick w/ Revo..

..enless I win a Shocker 4x4 and start playing back :laugh:

... nah.. that will never happen :)

[KoRnMaN]

umm yea whatever I didn't meen it that way I ment it as why would you upgrade it to do 30bps? Yea still, because if it feeds 16-18 bps theres no point because tourny's dont allow guns that shoot that fast anyway or they make you put it on 14bps or less. Unless you want to show off your new chip that you got on your matrix but plz don't make me feel like a newbie (the way you said it made me feel that way) 16-18 is ok but any more is stupid.

[AllOleander]

Sorry, i didn't mean to make you feel like a newbie.. you have like 80,000 posts on here so i know your not a newbie..atleast on the boards.

What tournys that you have gone to make you turn your ROF down? I have never heard of this. Most tournys just lock in SAO.. and they dont care how fast you can pull the trigger. Maybe the "sweetspot" or "bounce" may be regulated, but I don't think they make you set the ROF to a certain spot.

What tournys have you gone to that made you do this? I'm curious now..

And yes, 30bps is ridiculous. 18 is the fastest you would EVER need to go..and 13-16 is effiecient. It's a gimmick, but I will give them the idea of the hopper, pretty good design.. just i dont think it will be that "big" of a product in the industry.

[KoRnMaN]

Yea like some panam tourny's and we have local tourny's that have that rule. I thought nppl had it? Like were the bps needs to be set at 14 or below.
