View Full Version : Paintball, Seattle Area... Maybe WA vs. OR?
stevesbmw 10-24-2007, 05:57 PM I was wondering if there are any good spots around here (outdoor/indoor) that any of you have been to? I am looking to get back into the game. On a sidenote, I think we should have a Washington vs. Oregon paintball match :)...that could be a cool meet.
smonkbmw 10-24-2007, 06:32 PM ive been looking into this also. theres supposed to be one of the last indoor fields that is NOT speedball in salem ive been wanting to check out. other than that almost every field is speedball. and with the weather being its normal self outdoor just doesnt sound like fun right now. fogged goggles from the rain FTL
SneakyMike 10-24-2007, 06:35 PM I believe STP in Snohomish reopened.. Been there a few times, I'd give it a 7/10.
There is also a place outside Duvall. Don't remember the name of it, but it a great "out door" place, a lot of woods and stuff. But this time a year they see snow.. so idk.. lol
dem3n 10-24-2007, 08:02 PM Place in Salem is alright. Not the best... but alright. I'd also give it a 7/10. Oregon vs Washington sounds pretty sweet though.
Stealthyfish 10-24-2007, 08:18 PM only place which might be decent to go to is probably splat action in eastern oregon (completely forgot where though *shrugs* ) It's like half an hour from portland.
stevesbmw 10-24-2007, 08:25 PM Hmm...come on now, we're all NW'ers and we don't want to play outside in the rain!?!?! I think it is definitely fun outdoors with whatever the environment provides you with, also more real. I would love to get a 5(OR) vs. 5(WA) going though!

I have to say, Hit N Run was the only decent indoor pb place. Everywhere else is speedball or just crappy in general.

Yeah, I remember Hit-N-Run, I loved that place!
turbodefrost 10-24-2007, 08:45 PM IN! Fort Louis (Bellvue area?) has a badass paintball field.
driftinbmw 10-24-2007, 09:06 PM I would be sooo down!
Portland Paintball is an excellant indoor place.
portlandpaintball.us
stevesbmw 10-25-2007, 12:17 AM Hmmm....well, it seems like there is not a spot in the middle. We might have to do two matches, each on their home turf :)! I will seriously get this setup if there is interest!
deafboy 10-25-2007, 04:18 AM Paintball meet :evil2
driftinbmw 10-25-2007, 10:04 AM is portland no pretty much the middle? there is one place where they always have a civil war (wa vs or) but i cant remember the name.. ill think of it and let you all know later today. Its like 60 acres of open feild and courses to play everyyyyywhheeerr
desaille 10-25-2007, 10:23 AM we can meet on I5 like Centralia area
Use the Factory outlets as our paintball ground
Human casualties, expected during WAR :rofl
stevesbmw 10-25-2007, 11:55 AM driftin - please do let me know. That would be awesome. with a field that size we could probably do BF.C vs. Everyone else lol. Honestly though, i'd be willing to carpool people from Seattle, though, we all know how comfy the back seats are :(. But I was thinking a meet (at least 10 guys), paintball, then go somewhere for a warriors feast?
cramer 10-25-2007, 03:52 PM Only indoor fields I've been to have been speed ball.
We usually play woodsball at Danger Zone in Fort Lewis (Danger Zone also has a very nice indoor speedball in Tacoma by the CC). A little rain never hurt anybody and if you have nice goggles, they won't fog ;)
smonkbmw 10-25-2007, 04:14 PM hit n run converted to speedball i HEARD. also portland paintball is speedball. splat action is in Molalla, and is the field that is 60 acres. but when i was out there last they converted one large area into many smaller areas. ive heard of the civil wars there though, supposed to be fun, some go into the night also! there is www.oregonpaintball.com also.
dem3n 10-25-2007, 04:40 PM Damn.... I may be able to put my gun to use this year. I haven't played for about a year.
paul9325 10-25-2007, 11:02 PM What's wrong with speedball? -__-

it is a different type of game, not really fun for people who haven't been in the sport because of all the calls that need to be made, etc. either one is fun if you are into paintball though! i am down in any case, i still have my jerseys and most gear from my sponsored days!
smonkbmw 10-26-2007, 12:52 AM im not a speedball fan mostly cause i cant move as fast as needed. also it takes A LOT of paint to play. alls you do is go through paint, for the most part.

I know, I used "-__-" in place of ":shifty" because I didn't have enough posts to use the smiley... and I still don't, but I just found out a way around it, lol. I guess I just have to type out the full code to make them work for now. I feel what you guys are saying, sort of, but I'm 19. So speedball FTW. :buttrock
Btw, do any of you guys post on PbN?
paul9325 10-26-2007, 06:06 AM also it takes A LOT of paint to play. alls you do is go through paint, for the most part.
True, but personally I've always tried to use only one bag throughout the entire day. It can get a bit tricky, but really it's not like I've ever had much of a choice, ESPECIALLY now since I've just picked up a bimmer LOL.
