Paintball is calling back her old players, welcome back man
Same just got back two weeks ago
Good to be home!
Back after 12 years good to be back
I started playing this year and my brother who introduced me to it started playing again back in December
Just came back because I'm starting to ref at the field I used to play at all the time. I start my training tomorrow and I'm kinda nervous.
Yes, pb is so much fun. Playing it for maybe 15 years or more, and still cant get enough
Nice dude! I've only got 12 under my belt but I'm so glad to be back and excited for once in a long time!
"The idea of hunting human beings in the woods" ... I think we need to get this guy on a list
🤫🤫🤫🤫
@@NightmarePB 🤣🤣🤣
Welcome back my dude. We kept your spot warm now time for you to do what makes you happy! Just. Play. Paintball!
Glad to see you're back! Very excited to see what this decade brings to the sport from all the recent innovation being done and the resurgence of older players.
It's gonna be a good time buddy!!
I played like crazy from 2014-2016 but then i started high school and had no time for it. Now that ive graduated my apprenticeship i finally have enough pull within my company to say no to the optiomandatory Saturday schedule and go play paintball again. I went out and bought myself an EMF100 after seeing vids of you using yours and i fell in love with the marker within my first mag worth of shots. Im so happy i finally have the money and time to play like i used to.
Welcome back!!
This might be the first video I ever posted a comment on. Not big into social media. But I'm feeling it. :) I started playing in the late 90's and stopped in early 2000's. I ran paintball clubs, organized many large games (adding up to 20 players to fields). But then life turned, had family, financial ladders to work at... suddenly I get called back in late 2022. Instantly I was re-hooked and playing every month usually. I'm in CT, USA and once in a while play in NH. I've played in some fantastic big games, etc. But the thing that got me back in was actually a great group of guys who were out to make people feel welcomed. I joined up with them and we just have lots of fun, even if it's 1 on 1. I'm even playing with my gun from the 90's; Automag. But I did buy a Planet Eclipse for backup and also for mag games which I really love. I'm used to being out gunned by electric guns, etc.. but I still can kick their ass at times. :) I like telling people I'll play with anyone, anywhere, just to have fun. I even enjoy running around to draw fire and getting tagged out for the benefit of the team.
Good attitude is the key to make this sport grow again. Thank you for this video and your channel.
Such a great story man, thanks for sharing!
Legit You have a same tone of voice From before You moved To the West. And that is exciting to me. Because I know that you will really love what you're doing again. And I know that when you love what you're doing, you do so much better.
But either way.
Don't worry about the video, just have fun. Rock On Brother
I'm glad to see you come back. A bunch of other creators disappeared without a trace.
I am not gonna lie, i only watch ur videos for the paintball game play, but i will always try to support by watching ur videos no matter what it is😊❤
Thank you very much dude. I hope to keep uploading weekly if I can. Gameplay, reviews, chats about PB... it's a new day!
@@NightmarePB im excited😋🤩
I started back a few months ago and have plans on hitting some magfed events and local and non local fields around my way took 10+ years break
Love seeing this man! Good for you! Hopefully sg Oregon can still be on your passion list 😉
We missed you!!! Welcome back to you and all the others!
I missed you all too!
Glad you found your passion again, comrade. Come on down to Flarda and join the swamp soldiers in a scenario
Please post more raw footage, staging areas etc.
I do also miss your magfed league videos, i often go back to those with a cold drink in hand, as those videos captured some awesome moments. Its good to have you posting again!
Not a bad idea!
Just ❤
♥
Good ol' Trenton Ontario - Wastelands and Warriors Calling Paintball Field - two small places but both have alot of heart
So much heart! I need to try out Warriors one of these weekends!
Welcome back Nightmare. Excited too be on the field with you again
I can't wait to see you again buddy!!
good to see you back nightmare and cant wait to see you play paintball and all the videos
Coming soon!
Happy your back man 💪
Happy for you 🎉
Thank you so much!
That’s great nightmare, can’t wait for all the new videos man
Me too many! The footage is already piling up!
Yo it’s Legostud, still loving your videos, got into paintball because of your videos and went into magfed because of them as-well. Glad to see you are enjoying it again.
🤜🤛
Never give up passion!
🤜🤛
I’ve watched almost all of your videos and my birthday party was at a paintball place because of your videos
That's so awesome!!
I really wish you had been out here on the island around 2009-2015, it was the golden age at TNT and I always think back on those years with nostalgia
I would have loved to have seen that!!
There was 20-30 regular own gear players every weekend, Real competition and a great atmosphere. Those times were what made me love paintball
Just bought some new stuff to play this Sunday. I haven't played in about 5 years.
Let's go o 😊
Nightmare😊 half the time, I feel like you're pulling all this through my thoughts lol. I feel whatever was in the air that was holding paintball down is just about gone. Hope to start back up this year as well.
We got this man! More PB content creators on YT! Let's go!!!
Watching an old video of yours of a 3v3 magfed tournament not sure if it’s Moncton paintball but it looks like it and I play there and you inspired me to buy my first magfed marker
That was at Moncton Paintball. That field is amazing!!
Passions change, people change. I've lost my passion for paintball because (at least where I'm at) it doesn't cater to the milsim dynamic that I enjoy or have the variety that I want or the experience in the field that I'm craving. As a former magfed player, I wanted realism, immersion and simulation, and paintball wasn't scratching that itch for it. People always asked why I quit playing and switched to airsoft, simply because the cost to performance is better, the milsim culture is normalized, the ammo is cheaper, the events are better in terms of location (at least here, where I'm at), and it caters better to the tactical aesthetic I enjoy. But it's a personal choice. Sometimes passions change, die off, or revive themselves, it depends on what you're looking for and what situation you're in.
Exactly, life if unpredictable and sometimes we need to pivot to remain happy.
Good for you brother i haven't played since covid. And my friend shut his field down so i guess im kinda semi retired from paintball. But there will be a day that i put my gear back on lock and load a magazine into my 468 ptr and go hunting on a paintball field one more time.
Good to see you still kicking around man!
@NightmarePB never left brother making hunting and fishing videos. Occasionally check on the paintball scene
Nightmare posted in the first comment feels good
#NotificationSquad! 🤜🤛
You're yt channel is awesome bro, I'm so stoked to be getting into magfed for the first time! Have you heard of MilSim North? Ontario players need to check them out. Junes Burwash Prison paintball scenario game is sold out but they are doing more games in July & August. Apparently you can pay to Parachute into the game! They are partnered with wasaga beach skidiving for this.
I'm just finding out about this Milsim North group tbh looking forward to seeing this event but I've played Burwash Prison before, amazing location here near Sudbury ON. I'm stoked to get into magfed paintball after not having played paintball since late teens lol. Cheers!
Thanks for those kind words! I have heard of the Milsim North game. They were saving a spot for me but unfortunately, I have to work that weekend :(
Longtime no see! Great to have you back! Now, when do we get livestreams again? I need our groups chaos!
I would love to try a live stream but the internet included in my current rent only has 2Mbps upload speed and there are 4 of us using it ... 😅
@@NightmarePBDoes that mean we can get in the iPhone stream lmao
@@neufiedude360 omg neufie! 🤣
@@NightmarePB tell your roommates your doing a livestream on the phone and have them react to our chaos! I would love to see their reactions! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think the reason paintball has been on a decline the last few years is because a lot of fields (mostly indoor fields) were forced to close during covid, and those that didn't struggled and have closed because of developers buying the properties, it sucks big time. I used to play about once a month, mostly at big game/scenario games, but the field closest to me (flagraiders Outdoor) closed, and the other field second closest (Ultimate Paintball) is unfortunately closing at the end of this season. Every other field I know about is 1.5 - 3 hours drive
Ouch man... I really hope things turn around for everyone!
Crazy to think Ontario with all its paintball prohibition is so much bigger then here on the Westcoast. It does suck here sadly....even worse when your not in Victoria, TNT is probably the best field pn the island and as you pointed out....still not great
I enjoyed TNT but there were so many issues that couldn't be addressed without drastically increasing the cost to the end user.
The west coast paintball scene is a mess buddy, it was a mess even when it was thriving, and I was definitely cognizant of watching your experience here compared to out east, and the difference between your vids from coast to coast was a stark contrast.
There are tons of great people and players, but also a lot of toxic attitudes and gatekeepers. It was a weekly struggle to get games organized, and the cost of paint plus travel and field fees, just put it out of reach so many. I haven't played in over a year, possibly 2?! And I used to play at least twice a month for over a decade, and I miss exactly everything you talk about here. Super happy for ya dude, your video has me feeling the bug too, just might have to see if any of my tanks still hold air lol
Man, I hear ya! It wasn't thr same out there. I lost the passion while I was there and got tired of paying hundreds of dollars just to travel to a simple scenario game. Maybe it'll turn around... who knows...
Let’s goooo
Let's. F'n. Go.
and go we F'n did!
@@NightmarePB This is the way
I miss paintball
Paintball misses you!
Came back last month after 14 years out of the sport
Well, I’m pretty sure my local field closed. A lot of content creators stopped. If there’s not videos out there, then kids don’t get excited to go out and play.
It's just like the video game industry, if no one is showing it off, then no one will play. Or far less will play.
@@NightmarePB yeah, I agree with that. But also with inflation the prices for everything went through the roof. So a lot of kids can’t spend the 50-70 from the parents to play.
Btw u give dad energy💀 specially from ur last video😂 idk what it is
That's because I am a Dad... 😅
@@NightmarePB oh💀🤣🤣🤣
Any plans to go to Adrenaline paintball in Melbourne ON?
Maybe one day! If they invite me to an event, I'd be there!
Time to dust off the bag.
Im back from the dead 15 years after getting all my shit stolen , but now i built better shit , stuff that scares people
Let's go!!!!
Now get Alabasterslim out of retirement. 😂
Maaaaan, I wish. I think both he and Hedgehog are Done Done... 😢
@@NightmarePB dang I miss his videos and he has been gone a long time. I’m glad you and Wolf are around.
Pb seems alot better than COD
100% no SBMM in paintball 😉
It sucks that you have to live in Canada
Nah man, I like where I am right now.
@@NightmarePB um.....
I know... 😔
This is way
sounds like you do it for the money not for the sport. what a nightmare
Yup. That's why people work. CZcams is a job at times. It can quickly kill passion.
Bro u sound really mentally sick saying hunting humans in the woods knocks your socks off.
😅
