Paintball Manager - Web based paintball game (Season 10)


I have reviewed this game before and since then it has getting alot of attention from Malaysian ballers. Not to mention from other Asian countries as well such as Singapore, Thailand and the Philippines.




As at the time of this posting, the total Malaysian teams stands at 116. In a few days time when season 10 starts, inactive managers and teams will be remove. Previously I tried to get as many Malaysian teams to get registered so we can have our own national league, and it has become a reality! Thank you guys. We made it the first season and we already have the winners.




Those that played this game would also know that the first World League has already started and Malaysia finished first in the World League: Division 1.2 and earned a spot in the Championship Series against the World's best.



So, if you haven't join the game like us here, what are you waiting for? If its too hard at the moment you can always ask any of the Malaysian team's manager. I'm sure you'll get the help you need.

Paintball in the New Sunday Times

Paintball is more than just a casual sport, writes MAX KOH

Armed with jerseys, masks and guns — oops, markers — a bunch of guys and girls entered the field with one goal. Like Jason Bourne, they were out to get the enemy, and not get eliminated. One shot and the person is down on the ground.

No, it’s not a computer game played tamely at the desk, but something far more exciting — paintball. The pain of getting hit is very real.

Once considered a casual sport, played on weekends and during team-building sessions for corporations, paintball is getting serious.

The recent Paintball World Cup Asia (WCA) organised by PALS Events saw more than 118 teams from 40 countries descending on Bukit Jalil last November.

Local teams such as Dark Angels and Rock’n’Rolla have a strict weekly practice regime and have competed in international tournaments. “There are 12 million serious paintball players in the world. Today, the game is played in 104 countries,” says Amber Wong, the head of media and promotions for PALS Events, and a member of paintball team Rock’n’Rolla.



Paintball is a competitive sport where players in teams eliminate each other by shooting paint pellets at each other using a special gun called a paintball marker. The game can take place indoor or outdoor, with natural or artificial terrain.

There are two game variants — speedball and recball.

Recball is a military-type game played in a natural setting such as a jungle. The players reenact actual military situations and settings such as Black Hawk Down.

Speedball is played in a confined playing field with inflatable bunkers and an equal number of players on each side.

“This makes for a fast-paced game and is a popular format for competitive paintball. WCA and the local leagues follow this type,” says Nicholas Chan, captain of Dark Angels.

“Winning a game is dependent on these factors as well as employing the right marking techniques.” The WCA saw the teams competing in four divisions, each separated by the level of skills. “There are no rules to stop rookies joining the first division (called Elite) but they cannot join the lower divisions after that,” adds Chan.

Team Hostile Intentions from Australia took home the grand prize for the first division at the WCA last year.

The tournament also saw the teenage team Vindicated clinching seventh place in the Fourth Division. Many believe that paintball is an expensive sport. “For rookies, most equipment and gear are provided in a game and it costs between RM100 and RM200 for a team of five to 10 players,” says Chan.

For serious paintballers, there are two paintball leagues to join in Malaysia: Malaysian Paintball Official Circuit (MPOC) and Malaysia National Paintball League (NPL). The two differ in format, organisation, playing styles and have their own set of teams. The MPOC leads to the World Cup Asia (WCA).

“The WCA was established five years ago to cater to the local needs for a tournament. It is the only tournament of its standard in Asia,” says Wong.

The 2010 season of the Malaysian Paintball Official Circuit kicked off on Jan 23-24 at the Xtion Paintball Park, Kompleks Sukan Negara, Bukit Jalil.

The tournament leads up to the World Cup Asia 2010. Over 60 teams are in the first leg, vying for RM50,000 in cash and goods to be won throughout the season, Says Wong: “It’s like being part of an action film. The adrenaline rush is addictive.” To find out more about the sport and the leagues, visit xtionpb.com/forum or PALSevents.com/v2.

How many 'licensed' operators are out there?


So I've been told that there are only a few licensed paintball operators here in the Klang Valley. And there are a few more in other states. Not sure who they are? You can start by asking at your favourite place.

Is your regular hangout is 'legit'? No harm in asking right? It's your right to know.

If they can't give you a definitive answer, maybe it's time to take your business elsewhere. Then please share with others of your findings here. Maybe we could compile a list of 'legit' operators for all to see. Would it be an awesome 'list' to have for the new year
