Word is that a large portion of paintball players are stupid and illiterate.
No offense.

I heard it was tankless, well essentially, tank integrated into the frame. You know how efficient EGOs no are, but the EGO Prizm takes it even further.

It would be nice to finally not have a "torpedo".

It may not bother you, but it jabbing me in the hand over the years has definitely bothered me. That's part of the reason I shoot mainly geos over egos nowadays. Smaller torpedo.

You guys can argue all you want about it not being macro-less. Seen what I believe to be a prototype in person being used. Was all taped up of course, but the macroline that was "taped on" was done so in a fashion that you could tell it served no purpose at all.
The macro was literally almost dangling below the pops.

the neglect to look at the simularities between the ego and geo's past is incredible ....they always have about the same features with small (mostly valve related)differences....they just came out with the ego's brother the geo3 that had macro...is PE really that stupid to miss puting in as good a feature as macrloess in a gun they just released,one would think not.

I don't know if the next Ego will have a macro line or not but the Ego has always been PE's main squeeze so if they do a switch it would probably be on the Ego. Either way I will take reliability and ease of repair over macro less any time. Which I think has been Jack Woods reasoning so far

If you had machined channels through metal like a luxe how would it be less reliable? Unless you destroy the bodies those channels would never fail. Like it or not the lack of macroline is the future much like the death of steel braided hose.
Also to add to the geo comment, the geo3 is superior in almost every way to the ego11. It needs a jump to make it appealing again.

Yeah I know Jack Wood said something along the lines of he would never design a macroless gun (years ago), but as for reliability and ease of maintenance thats just plain propaganda my friend
personally I would love to see a macroless design....it would give me something to think twice about rather resigning to getting a G6r this year

Well Jack said that HE would never design a macro less marker. I would imagine he isn't the only designer

I agree the geo3 is the top PE marker; now. I am just saying when PE introduces new tech on their guns; the Ego is usually the first to get it. So if PE does go to macro less it would probably be introduced on an Ego

He is the LEAD designer. Which mean all designs at some point come through him.
And he didn't say "never". He said not until he can design a method that allows them to still tech a marker while its aired up.

I don't beleive that the marker that people ar eposting about will be the new EGO 13.
I believe that they have seen a new PE marker, but it is something that stands on it's own.
PE going to 5 different markers
EGO
Geo
Etha
Etek
and a new undisclosed marker.
Everyone has their own info, but I think that there may be more than one product being tested right now. Wait and see, I think that we will all be suprised.

It will not be called the Ego 13, if you look now the Ego 11 has a different title the Ego S I believe. So I am betting it will be called a non numerical name.
Jack never said he wouldn't do a macroless gun, like Soul said, just wouldn't until he could do it without compromising existing important features like ease of teching.
