Do you love paintball, but don’t have the time to play often. Do you miss the excitement and adrenalin rush. Or have you never played paintball, don’t want to buy the equipment, don’t have friends who play, or you just want to see what it is like? Then the new brand of paintball may be for you.
Online paintball sites have been growing in popularity for all kinds of paintball players, from novice to expert. One of the online games is Assault paintball, where you as a player stand in one place and view a scenario field in front of you. “Enemy” soldiers appear in the buildings and around the obstacles in front of you. You use your mouse to target the soldiers and click to hit them with paintballs from your unseen gun. The “enemy” players look realistic in their camouflage garb and paintball headgear, but the game has a video game feel to it rather than a true paintball feel. You can grab extra armor and health packs as you travel through the game.
It’s a basic playing experience, but the graphics are good, and the sound effects entertaining. Paintball scramble is another online game that allows you to experience the virtual version of a capture the flag game of paintball. The experience is somewhat more realistic, as you use the direction keys to advance through the play areas in this game. Your point of view is through your play goggle, and the opposing players do shoot back, although their accuracy is suspect, at least early on. As you move on through the game level, there are opportunities to pick up renewed health and extra paint.
King of the Hill paintball online mimics the popular animated television show by the same name. This is a slightly more strategic and shorter game, as you have only 20 shots to spend. The setting is the backyard field of Dale’s Paintball, featuring empty refrigerators, old stoves, and used packing crates. You have to hit the other King of the Hill characters before they get you. It takes three hits to “kill” a character, and you have to be hit three times in order to be out.It sounds like a silly game, but can be very addictive and strategic.
Paintball Shooter Game is based on speedball, and is a fast paced game. Using a mouse quickly is the key to success in this game, as opponents pop out from behind the inflatable bunkers, and you need to click on them for a hit. This game is simply a “gather the most points” game, and you can work your way up to the top ten lists, if you have the time.
Mousebreaker paintball is a game that will take some practice to master. There are options for one on one and four man scramble play, but both styles will require some playing time to conquer. Although it may be the most difficult to get a handle on, mousebreaker is the most interesting and will probably pull you back more often that the other online versions.
