Who the fuck is Miss. Celo? :lawl:

Ya it was a let down. Originally we were supposed to go as a group of 12 but we had an extra friend who came and they charged him $95 just cause we had 13 people in our group, what a rip!! Even paying $50 something per person wasn't worth it. Do not read any further if you plan on going either way and don't want it to be spoiled but like the other poster mentioned, if you go don't have high expectations.

Spoiler!

but, just go to say you been there, its different

bring your own masks if you have it, their masks are nasty

I might be thinking of going...
Can you talk a bit more about the experience and what other info?

Thanks.

had a feeling it would suck ass after watching a vid of it... doesn't look exciting/thrilling AT ALL

VancouverSun.com - Video Centre

with $55, you'd have a lot more fun blowing it on other things

Would be interesting on Halloween.

they should have running zombies like 28 days later and once they tag you before you get a shot off at a designated "kill spot" you become a zombie with a weapon and you can kill your squad. lol

Booked! should be a blast.

toyobaru 09-16-2012 11:55 AM

lol after watching that video, it does look rather boring. From the looks of it some of the zombie actors arent all that great at acting haha. Its too bad you cant bring your own gun. I have a few paintball pistols id like to use.

jbsali 09-16-2012 12:18 PM

i wonder if it would be better in small groups (4-6). group looked huge in the video.

get 12 people, you dont wanna pay $95 bucks per person, its not worth that price, not even remotely close


caution: for people who drive lowered cars, i advise you to park on the street and get someone with a stock car to drive you in, the road to their facility is a gravel road with holes EVERYWHERE, its an off-road, good bye exhaust/header/front bumper

twitchyzero 09-16-2012 02:23 PM

thanks for your feedback
you just saved me $95

too bad cause this concept was not bad

trip 09-16-2012 11:54 PM

my buddy went last night and he confirmed everything dachinesedude described.

with that being said, they take suggestions on improvement at the end of the tour and said they will be making them as they just started up last week?

JKam 09-17-2012 10:24 AM

damn.. this is making me not want to go... I have a group ready to book in Oct..

AzNightmare 09-17-2012 11:03 AM

Thanks for the feedback.
I thought there was supposed to be a rescue mission or something like that..
Unless I misread or got mixed up with some other event.
Sound like there no rush, and people are walking instead of running like some survival scenario.

This doesn't sound adrenalin fulfilling now :okay:

That's exactly what I was thinking too. I thought it was more of a linear free for all. Not a guided tour of... walk here, shoot at that ok done.. walk over here, shoot at that.

I thoguht it was an hour too but it seems like 30 min is just prep time. :okay:

punkwax 09-17-2012 11:13 AM

Sounds like a bunch of BS. I want to be running away from and shooting zombies in a dark forest. What a waste of a great concept.

:okay:

that is all

Liabilities and lawsuits have been ruining fun since the 80's.

AzNightmare 09-17-2012 03:06 PM

well.. In all honesty, it's starting to make more sense now.
Initially, I was thinking how much are these zombie actors getting paid
To get bombarded by paint gun shots, group after group, all day long.
Plus how much body/face Armor would they need.

All starting to make sense now. :okay:

Hondaracer 09-17-2012 03:15 PM

on their site they say strictly no personal gear

if i do end up going and they dont let me wear my own mask i might back out right on the spot because fogging up is my #1 pet peave wearing any sort of goggles/mask

JKam 09-17-2012 03:52 PM

if I can't wear my own mask I'm not going..

trip 09-17-2012 04:01 PM

i sent an email to them 2 days ago asking if i can use my own paintball mask.

no reply

well that just adds more reasons not to go

trollface 09-17-2012 04:10 PM

Phone call = instant answers, guys.

Vansterdam 09-17-2012 04:13 PM

great concept but :fuckthatshit:
