Little Things That Annoy You In Airsoft

The fact that 2 stage triggers are usually terrible.

 
I keep meaning to buy a PDR-C, but that just irks me so much.
Tell me about it from day 1 I've had no semi auto (if I fast trigger pull it locks) so I need to use auto at all times and it's okay but that look I get every time I chrono from the Marshall and the fact that things like 1-5 drills are super hard because ofthe trigger movement to get down on times.

 
people who shout at kids to move up but are too busy taking to the marshal about vaping to actually participate in the game.

 
Marshals telling you someone is around the corner just cos you're a kid and they think you suck :(

 
When people use BBs that are too heavy for their gun's fps and then call you a cheater when you step out of the way as you can literally see their shots coming towards you.

Sure mate, your Supertacticooldeathmachine M4-123abc may be able to lift stuff heavier than 0.3g but the round moves slower than a tipsy bumblebee.

Tehe.... I always thought I was almost in the matrix this explains alot.

 
Except that heavy BBs reach the target faster. But yes, on long distances you can dodge BBs if you are aware.

 
Watching tracer rounds bounce off your target and then watch as they completely fail to take the hit.

This is my number one hatred. I use tracers a lot and its a double edged sword,it's nice to see what you hit but 10× more irritating when people don't call it.

Particularly annoying if you're like me and only fire one shot, followed by watching it bounce off them, and they they turn and charge you.

I never fire once unless its extremely close. Your best off firing a few as its easy for someone to not realise if you hit somewhere they don't feel. Best way is to fire 2 or 3 times and put each shot into a different area.
 
People who play like its cs go at very close range aiming for the head on full auto in a semi auto section.

 
Marshals suggesting what you do. If it's a safety infringement or rule-breaking then fair enough but if not let us get on and play as we like.

 
As a support gunner set up in a good position, other people stacking up right next to each other in a tight space. Seriously, all you're doing is just making it easier for the other team to big you off in bigger groups. You don't have to be alone but try and split off in pairs so you're not easy pickings. I've seen the same issue when laying down fire on a spot, I've got them covered, the best opportunity to push forward would be now but nope, I'm having to push up by myself hoping hipfire will keep some heads down. It's pretty fun though, so I can't complain too much.

On that note, I was sat at the back corner of a foxhole (was currently between support weapons at that point so was using my reliable E&L AK) with a good view of either side, we were doing really well in holding the base when I noticed some guy at the far right getting too close for comfort, but I couldn't do anything as I'd only seen him through a thin gap in the wall. Anyway, mentioned it to the defenders on the right and go back to keeping on my post. Five minutes later, I feel a tap on my shoulder. "Knife kill." What did I say, folks?

People following snipers and pretty much sitting on top of them with the thinking of "if the sniper knows a good spot lets follow him" how about don't. Playing a sniper role there is nothing more frustrating than having friendlies giving away your position after setting up in a decent position for a chat or looking at the shots your taking and trying to seize opportunities from that.

(only ever happens at skirmishes that I've experienced so far, which is probably why I prefer playing the sniper role at milsim's these days)

Poor Marshal, Who don't want to upset regulars and can see that there is a clearly foul play.... and clicky sites. .

 
Daft P+P charges

Goggles fogging up

Bang rules and the arguments that ensue after them

People - people can be complete arses.

 
Snipers hitting ya from close range with 400fps arghhhhh.

Running and ya body keeps going but ya feet won't play..

ChucKing a smoke grenade and nothing

 
Tripping up and going A over T in front of everyone on the way to your objective...never looks cool, always breaks something and you will be remembered soley for that unless you address the balance by doing something Ninja afterwards.
