Whats a good setup to long ball?

[Da_Warhamster]

Hey! I would just like to know what is a good setup on any gun to long ball? I'm trying to help a friend out....

[CDietz]

lol, longball :D . im assuming he is a newbie :)

but get the tippmann with the flatline barrel if he want to longball

[Da_Warhamster]

lol... yeah he's a newbie. the only way I can get him to play is to help him find a gun to shoot far away because he's afraid of getting hit. :rolleyes: All of this because the first time he went with me he got hit and the paintball broke his skinnnnn:eyes:

[CDietz]

yea i figured. but everyone was a newbie once, so i try to cut them some slack. but sometimes they just do some very stupid things :laugh:

Hey,
If you want to play "long ball" ( i can bearly remeber what that is), get a Flatline or maybe a nice cocker...if you have the bank of course, but in the long run, play speed ball...

accidently shoot him once, not like up close by with low velocity and when he gets mad tell him oops im sorry man. Hey now you know how it feels when you are hit. It doesn't even feel worse as that one did and then he is cured!

isnt it wierd that the first time u get shot it hurts the most (beside shots in mouth neck and ''u know where'') but the first time i got shot i didnt expect it to hurt but when i did it cut my skin and i started to bleed. but i still played and now i barely even notice getting shot. but tell him to get a cocker cause eventually he will want to start playin in the front and when he does a tippmen would be a bad choice. and besides being in the back is even worse. cause when everyone gets taken out in the front there gonna rush the back and hes gonna get lit up like a xmas tree :laugh:

You could tell him to get a flatline autococker.

No, no, no. He is afraid of getting shot and he is a newbie, do you think he can handle the maintenance of a cocker? No way. If he is really scared to get shot, tell him to get a tippmann with the flatline. Just shoot him once and show him it's not so bad.

[justshootit20]

yeah exactly shoot him once. bribe him into going balling with you again and when hes some where where you "dont" want him to be tell him to get back to where you are and if he doesnt shoot him. that wut my friend did though i wasnt afraid of getting shot. he didnt hit me but he got really close he hit my c02 tank.
my two cents

[Paintslanga]

WHOA!!!!!! i didnt know he was newbie lol but it isnt really that hard to learn how to maintain a cocker atleast not for me. but i say let him play some speedball or something of that sort so that way he cant hide. but if u cant kust let him play a little more before he gets his gun cause u dont want him to get a flatline then he finds out he likes the front and hes funked up.

The easiest way to show a noob that it doesn't hurt to get hit is when the game starts rush, all by yourself, to the other side of the field. You'll get lit like crazy, but your friend will see you do this and realize it must not really hurt.
