Perhaps more when it comes to hopper aftermarket electronics but maybe it resonates more for me 'cus I'm one of those just-give-me-a-gun-that-works guys. Glad to have you make the case.Baca Locohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13014510414015288907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804718502406028481.post-27324223487001046062008-12-28T09:41:00.000-05:002008-12-28T09:41:00.000-05:00"What purpose does a sophisticated software packag..."What purpose does a sophisticated software package serve when nearly any level marker can perform to international tourney standards?"<BR/><BR/>That's not really much different from 12 or 13bps is it? All of the sudden now that the ROF is a little lower the board is some how unnecessary? As though you couldn't pick up a Spyder and get it to shoot 13bps 2 years ago?<BR/><BR/>Have you taken a look at the new Virtue OLED (disclaimer: me=virtue)? Its much more than just modes... easier to use, drilling modes that you can use to benchmark your improvements, etc. And some manufacturers who will go un-named still do a crappy job of implementing their psp mode. Not to mention that some other companies (aftermarket and oem) perform erratically at lower rates of fire.<BR/><BR/>There will still be a place for experts who know some of the intricacies of electronic mechanical/pneumatical design for quite some time yet in paintball.Christianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13113625282907459974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804718502406028481.post-47042743118056160862008-12-27T23:45:00.000-05:002008-12-27T23:45:00.000-05:00Dye shows their Rotor on a DM9 shooting 40bps in t...Dye shows their Rotor on a DM9 shooting 40bps in their marketing video.<BR/><BR/>That marker costs $1400 and the hopper is $150.<BR/><BR/>Then you play in a league partially owned by Dye, and you're stuck at what, maybe 8bps?<BR/><BR/>I'd feel robbed I paid all that money for something the manufacturer then told me I couldn't use.bronchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11194815870414612580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804718502406028481.post-59002734757860393232008-12-27T17:42:00.000-05:002008-12-27T17:42:00.000-05:00o i will :)o i will :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804718502406028481.post-71311025030097645682008-12-26T23:06:00.000-05:002008-12-26T23:06:00.000-05:00Thanks.
