What do you do ? After I finish filling my hopper from a pod, I usually throw the pod. And I dry fire at them until I'm out of air. And in that ase, I still keep playing and try to get people out.

depends, usually just shoot air, if its a flag game just go straight for that to get the points for the pull. if no flag, rec and out of air i just get out.

Stay in and yell positions, atract fire

**Metal_Militia** · July 26th, 12:28 PM

**predator14** · July 26th, 12:30 PM

try to get close enough to make enemys surrender, i eliminated 4 people in 1 game with no paint...

I forgot to make it clear.. I throw Pods at players. Last time I went pballing (last week at PnL Bridgewater, MA) I nailed some kid in the face.

**Warpstoner** · July 26th, 12:55 PM

When im out of paint, i step off the field. Unless the game counts, then i'll stay in.

**chromekilla** · July 26th, 12:56 PM

youd definatly get sent walking if you tried that crap at my field

for me, i either get a pob from someone, or move up and do that gay "bunker" rule thing where you have to shout, not shoot at people. you can just run down the tape yelling "bunker" and usually get like 3 people out without even knowing they were there

**Warpstoner** · July 26th, 12:58 PM

Haha, thats a messed up rule.

yep, stay in and let your teammates know where they are at, Stay in as long as you can, and if you get marked out, o well. But i say don't just dry-fire. Most ppl know what it sounds like w/o paint, so they'll know someone is out of paint and they might move up or try a bunker move or something.

I never run out since I start saving them once I get low in order to get sure shots. If I would screw up and run out I would stay in the game and try to draw the enemy fire or yell out locations. I would still fire but only occasionally so they don't know I'm out. It's easy to tell if someone is out if they fire a bunch of air shots at you, but harder to tell if you only shoot occasionally.

**Ryan_Page** · July 26th, 02:05 PM

i do what javaman does.

Hmm. that is generally considered illegal in tourney play... but rec, go for it.

**Warpstoner** · July 26th, 02:10 PM

I'd kick you out of a rec game if you threw pods at other players.

**rockdude14** · July 26th, 03:10 PM

guy, there gonna know ur know ur out if you shoot 10 or 10,000 dry fires at em. dont even shoot if ur out of paint. smart people are just gonna bunker you. just draw fire and call out locations, or get people to surrender.

Yeah well on saturday i ran out of air not paint, i misjudged how much i had adn we were playin sets of 3 and it was the third game, so like my gun was only loading one out of every 10 shots, i haev a tippy a-5. So i figured that i was useless so i basicly ran to there side without them knowing and i got 2 to surrending after i lightly hit em, i don't know if they knew i coudl throw them harder, and then i got the third guy and the last out from 20 feet away, he had no clue was happened either. It was awesome!

**Killerz_prodigy** · July 26th, 03:47 PM

Thats happend to me way to many times. You'd almost think ive learned my lesson and bring more paint with me but of course not! If its a capture the flag game i drop my gun and run for the flag and get the pull and the hang (it also helps that im a short and fast kid) if its not capture the flag ill run around tryin to help draw fire to my self and then start yellin out locations to my teammates. But never go to the same bunker as them because they will see you running and then you could easily get ur team mate in trouble to.

pbextremer · July 26th, 03:51 PM

everytime i paintball i run out of paint at a crucial moment, i'm defending the hill, i see 5 people in plain view, crawling along the ground they don't see me, i shoot once, i run out of paint
