now, all I can say is "epic, that's awesome" xD I want one of those for christmas, I assume you'll get me one? =3 *puppyeyes*

Seen this after you posted it in mumble It looks sick, I'm well jelly of that guy that got to test it.

You guys can just drop it off at my place.

Yeah, I saw that yesterday, was going to do a write about it. About time they make a virtual without any hydraulics or what not. Be nice if they make a smaller version to fit in my living room. Although I don't know about the "feel as if you got hit" part it. Looks to be painful, could only imagine some friends ganging up on you. Must feel like paintballs.

I'd like it of there weren't any paintballs shooting at you. You know, we could always play airsoft.

I WANT IT!!!!!!!!!!!! AND WILL BUY IT IF I GETS A JOB!!!!!!! XD

cool

lol I don't know if you'd be able to just randomly buy one. but it's a huge step for gaming if they keep progressing into that direction. here's the actualy video, explaining stuff in a bit more detail and also letting a military dude try it out

I don't know about everyone else, but I get goosebumps everytime I see this. it's insane

Yeah, didn't it cost something like $400 or $800k? It is crazy awesome though!

Someone is going to take this and stream line it, make it more portable, and make a killing off of it. Minus the paintball guns of course.

although without the paintballs it's just like the military dude says: you'll act like you're superman and be too aggressive. it's an important part to have something that tells you "oh, that S***'s bat to have hailing all over you" about the enemy fire xD

although I'm fairly sure that you're able to simply unplug them for a softcore version :P or maybe just change them into something that simply poke you in the right direction. personally I want to give it a try just like that xD

Yeah, I wouldn't mind trying it like that.. umm... once. But playing it for hours on end? Won't be able to. Probably tone the velocity down a bit so it doesn't hurt as much.

But yes, I do see the mentallity people would have if it hurt like hell. Maybe a shock instead of paintballs. They do get pretty messy.

I've been killed on BF3 825 times. I think It's safe to assume that I've been shot at least 3 times per kill so... 2475 shots with paintballs in 2 weeks?! No thanks! Lol.

meh... you two both walk around with the mentality that you'll get shot. nubs, lol. the shock-thing might be easier to deal with if they go live with it and put it up for sale, since it's as you say; way less messy and easier to deal with to maintain the simulator.

although the mentality of getting shot, or slightly hurt/affected is that you should NOT get hit again. now, that's something I keep seeing fucking S*** load of gamers calling themselves "pro" do all the fucking time; running wide open taking hits and dont care for S***. it's just like the military dude say; you're not fucking superman. thinking that in a live situation would surely get you killed asap. and if nothing else:

"I'm superman! I take no damage! I CAN FLYYYyyy...."
*splat*
"did you hear something?"
"yeah, d'you think it was an enemy?"
"not anymore ~"

win.

AWESOME! Me want!

This is amazing! It really makes me wonder what the future of gaming has in store for us.

yeah the video there is the same as my second link ^^ and the swedish accent of that ddue is horrible! x'D but hell, I think I need to check out those treadmills x)
