Re: Which Side Are You On

Functional mil-sim for me. I was going to go the full Milsim look along with performance mods, but I stopped short of going all the way. I couldn't bring myself to spend the $65 on an Opsgear MP5 mag...something that is completely non-functional. All the other mil-sim mods are functional in one way or another in that they do something (add to comfort, increase performance, etc...)

Re: Which Side Are You On

Right now I am going for performance. Once I'm satisfied with that i'll switch to mil-sim mode!

Re: Which Side Are You On

I have always prefered the feel of a speedball marker to the feel of a milsim marker, but I prefer woods/recball to speedball. But I love the A5, so I put as much stuff on it as possible to make it feel like a speedball marker. I also made my trigger walkable, as I prefer walking on semi over the other modes of fire. So no, my A5 in no way looks like a real gun... but I love how it feels in my hands, and thats enough to make me love my marker.

Re: Which Side Are You On

Bakemono has a futuristic look, not necessarily Mil-Sim. But all of the mods were designed more comfort and utility.

As far as the internals, I've got it performance modded to run like a speedball marker. Dual trigger for walking, APE Rampage, the whole nine.

Re: Which Side Are You On

I voted for comfort. Not that I don't value performance mods because I do, and I've spent a lot to make my marker perform well. However, for me, the comfort factor is huge, mostly because I'm small and not particularly muscular, and I'm not getting any bigger

Re: Which Side Are You On

I just didn't post because my option was not there. I first went performance, then after I felt good, went mil-sim, then, I did more performance lol.

Re: Which Side Are You On

I have a milsim set up but also have performance mods, like HPA, PPS Brass, apex, and a red dot all help in performance while being able to keep it real with Milsim.
