it not always about playing in tournament. play for fun. some place let you do it cause they making money off there paintballs. some people play in there backyard and not many rules.

i think its fun. if they create upgrade they will shoot it.
all the tippmann video that use cyclone feed there going to chop anyways.
there only one way tippmann shoot perfect with out chop in full auto is use a python feedneck with dye rotor.

Any field that lets you rip 25 bps is not going to be around for very long.

Yeah. How dumb that car manufacturers brag about how their cars can reach 200 or 0-60 in four seconds. Oh wait, it's called advertising through positive connections.

The paintball course here in Germany only regulates velocity (290) not bps and it's pretty popular

Not everyone plays tournaments, plus paintball is nothing more than a silly, corporate fueled arms race.

You can't ramp or have adjustable modes of fire correct??

The field I ref at allows response but no ramping. Somebody who can walk the trigger decent can easy hit 25 bps on response, My point is as long as the people with those markers are responsible when they are shooting at rentals then the field can run smooth. Not very often do people complain about the heavy gunners they usually just want them to be split up fairly. We have people trying to destroy rentals fairly often so we will usually gear up a ref for next match and shoot out the douche next game ASAP.

Not insurance, lawyers. Try explaining to a know-nothing jury why your field is allowing 25 bps, double that of most fields. I wonder if the lay person would think 25 bps would increase the chance of injury if someone's goggles fell loose, I think so. All-in-all, 25 bps is retarded and unnecessary.

Wrong, Germany has no ban against modes. Although, unless you're on a US military base the federal law dictates that a paintball marker can't fire faster than 214 fps.
