My Friends and I have come up with a great game. In this game (I live in Ohio) You wait untill the snow gets deep, 3ft or more is perfect. then you go out into a feild and you flatten down areas of snow to make trenches, the you go all WWI on eachother, this is great fun and the cold weather lets you bundel up against shots more. Also; the trenches must be the propper distance appart, you want to be in range, but you dont want to be able to shoot through the trench walls into the other trench.

What do you guys think??

Me and my friends did somthing like that last year but we never get that much in MD. We usually just make a bunch of snowball and put them behind these wooden paintball bunkers and play like its an actual game.

im sure it would, the physics of pressure differences sill apply, it'll just be very irregular i'd imagine

From my experience, whenever I use Co2 in the winter, all that happens is the balls break, and everyone has to sit around fixing their gun in freezing weather.

Why?

Co2 is a cold gas that expands into a warm environment. When you have a cold gas expanding into a cold environment, things do go as well, you aren't getting a very good consistant rate of velocity (when do you get one with co2 anyway..), and cold against cold friction will puncture your balls like a bayonet through a baloon.

If anyone has some convincing information about co2 and cold environments for me that would motivate me to play in the winter again, please talk.

All my friends use CO2 in the winter. It generally works okay.... You don't get very many shots per tank compared to normal temps. Also if you go rock n roll your gun might freeze up. My brothers has frozen a couple of times and his is a 98c.
