What paint they change to? I loved there allstar always shot good for me.

natedawg · 08-31-2012, 08:08 PM

I'm down to come out and play again. They changed the paint?

TDonovan · 08-31-2012, 10:06 PM

Last person I talked to said they were stocking Evil instead, but I haven't heard anything official from CPX.

I'm not going to bet the whole trip on it, I'm going to fox pb's store ahead of time and buying their draxxus paint or something. If I have 1 more ball pop in my hopper or explode in the chamber I will explode

damico · 08-31-2012, 10:19 PM

i'll be there fo sure. TD, message me your # in case for some reason I can't go.

you joking? It's terrible to me.

natedawg · 08-31-2012, 10:22 PM

I agree my cyborg turns in to a chopping machine using all-star and my z2 hopper hates all star no matter the setting. I just deal with it.

For me it was mostly the hopper that was popping balls. They would then make a huge mess when fired. I switched over to a gravity loader and had zero problems. My pump gun was obviously a mess because it shoots high pressure; that was where I was getting balls exploding in the breach.

ihop1, I did not see if you planned on playing or not. You game?

Ahh I was using a Halo, a little rougher on paint than a rotor.

PBN Open practices are pretty simple. Gather as many people as we can from PBN, meet up at CPX, and play practice against other teams. We will get as many games in as possible, I'm not one for standing around if I can help it. We've had some good groups so far, looking forward to playing with everyone again.

exo3901 · 09-05-2012, 11:57 PM

How much is it for practice and paint at CPX?
How hard is it to get in game if there is only two of us? I use to play D1 for years but have been out of it since 05....Now my son is getting into the sport so I am getting back into it with him...Thanks for any info

$40 a case. I'm actually in the same boat. My son started as well & this is a great place to practice for him.
