What I think is that this is paintball trying to become something that it is not... Realistic looking. Paintball has its place, and that's in shooting your friends and having a way of marking hits. Its more of a "sport" than airsoft is. Airsoft is more of a fashion show and "experience".
I think mag fed paintball guns look even worse than your regular hopper setups, simply because regular paintball guns look like they do what they're meant to do. Mag fed paintball guns just look like they're trying to do something and doing a really shitty job at it.
The big reason why nobody here is impressed is because the "new developments" in paintball are developments made in airsoft several decades ago.
The player maturity argument airsofters like to make is outdated. It sort of applied back when airsoft in Canada was pretty much all 18+, but now that airsoft is becoming mainstream, you get just as many tards playing airsoft as you do in paintball.
