AKA_Grimz Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 So I am doing some research and I am curious how people feel about 1 - Under 18 players? 2 - Themed game sites? (Resident Evil, BF, COD, MOH etc) Detailed or short replies are welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy_Crystal Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 1-under 18 players... we were all under 18 once, having said that it is entirely down to the person. some people are just really annoying. 2-themed game sites. I love them however that is entirely made by the players and their attitude towards the scenario. other people just want to rock up, shoot their mates and head home which is great, but they probably won't be that fussed about a theme. horses for courses and all that. I hope that helps 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that helps 🙂 Exactly. At 13 I was shooting air rifles, shot guns and rifles. Qualified marksman not long after. However, completely agree kids can be annoying. Lol Themed playing fields have been an attraction. From Resident Evil to simple real life ops. Elevators and tanks have also sparked an interest. Your reply is much appreciated. Thank you.

Under 18 - Show respect, don't be loud; listen and learn. Themes - It'll will have to rotate, unless it's a really popular one like Star Wars (Tracers everywhere). Sure, Zombies are fun.

Oh nice, I was a regular at a field which had several themes. Including RE and SW. It had the bunker from return of the jedi + speeder bike. Also Resident Evil in another area of the main field. So multiple themes in one playing area mix it up enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of themed sites I am not a fan. It would definitely be better if there were themed days or events rather than the same theme every week.

It's all about keeping prats of all ages either honest, or absent. 8 hours ago, AKA_Grimz said: 2 - Themed game sites? (Resident Evil, BF, COD, MOH etc) Garnish. The substance of the site and how it's run matters much more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Adolf Hamster Posted March 16, 2019 Supporters Share Posted March 16, 2019 under 18 players are fine, airsoft is a weird sport where you can see kids acting like men and men acting like kids. as long as they're decent players then age doesn't really matter. themed games i've never really seen work all that well, problem is say you want to run a star-wars themed game, how do you account for the majority who won't have star wars themed kit? i do love individuals who have the guts to run a theme, for example a chap has started playing at our local sites who aside from the DYE mask wouldn't look out of place as an extra in enemy at the gates.

Nick G Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Under 18's, no problem. Some of the best sports I've played against have been kids and some of the biggest arseholes are plenty old enough to know better. Themed games, never played one but wouldn't mind giving it a go. It's great to mix things up a bit and I prefer not to take it all too seriously so milsim is a no no for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Druid799 Posted March 17, 2019 Supporters Share Posted March 17, 2019 Under 18 ? not a problem for all the above reasons (but have found over the yrs once you hit 14’ish it seems the lower the age the higher the immaturity on the field) themed games ? Can be excellent OR can be a right shower of shit ! The couple I’ve been to that worked were ; not a usual game day , limited numbers , cost more than a ‘normal’ scurmish day , quite strict dress code , a fixed (but flexible if needed) game plan and the game idea and scenario had been tailored to the site . = Was an amazing day .👍 The ones that didn’t ? Normal gameday at the site , no additional charge to take part , open to all as per usual (walk on’s still allowed) no rules about team structure or dress code (only a request to dress in a particular style if you could) , they tried to follow the original idea to rigidly and the game scenario hadn’t been chosen very well for the site layout . = Was an absolutely shit day .👎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
