Feel like shooting your coworkers in the behind but don't want to get in trouble? Then this is the…read moreplace for you. Nestled in the woods of Canton lies a fantastic facility for your paintball needs. This isn't just some random setup of obstacles claiming to be a paintball place. There's a western town, a castle, a fort, and of course other open air courses for all of your needs. Some tips: 1. You can bring your own gear or rent theirs. Be mindful that their items will have experienced extensive use so you will have to make some adjustments otherwise you'll have the aim of a stormtrooper. Their rental prices are very reasonable. 2. Be willing to purchase more ammo. Their prices are fantastic and you will run out of supplies from the fun you're having. 3. Do not wear nice clothes. They will get stained, muddy, wet, sweaty, and just plain old nasty. Bring bug repellent because you'll end up running and crawling around the woods. I'll take a paintball to my backside over a tick burrowing into my skin for a free meal. 4. Expect pain! Paintballs fly around 200 mph. You don't need to be a Fields Medal winner to calculate how much pain you'll experience. It's the type of pain that will make you cackle with glee most of the time. 5. Follow the rules that the owners have set up. This is for your safety as well as others. Wear your helmet in the game field at all times. Giving up some comfort is worth keeping your face (and eyes) in order. If you sneak up on someone, don't shoot them in the back from 10 feet away, just ask if they give up and show some compassion. Some pretty nasty fights have happened because of a lack of sportsmanship. 6. Most of all, let go, have fun, and get crazy. Try to live those online gaming moments by creating strategies, flanking opponents, etc. and you'll have a blast. They do big group packages that can save you tons of loot which can be used for MORE AMMO!

As someone that has played paintball from Montana to Florida, I can testify that this place is the…read moreBEST! From my initial phone call to make a reservation to the final moments of our last game, my group of four had an amazing time. Shout out to Bob the referee! Took the time to really go over the rules, explained all the fields, made sure everyone was safe the entire time, and was kind and helpful the entire day. Rental packages range in price from 35-55 dollars and paint costs 50$ per case. I have two suggestions. One, extended hours starting at 10:00 AM. Two, at least one additional bathroom near the staging area. Well done Nitro, we had a blast!

Alright, get set. After a 2-year hiatus (due to low-life landlords kicking them out), Elite Ops…read moreAirsoft (EOA) is back and bigger. EOA has purchased their own land and built their own indoor field. Mostly the same bunkers and setup but over 4,000-sf larger. A few of us were invited to their "soft open" recently and got to experience the place. Due to more room, there's a lot more space for running which means less CQB style play. But, well lit, much better ventilation (A/C in the front area), cleaner. More bunkers and obstacles will be needed to enclose the place. The refs are experienced and ready. The place is starting with a clean-slate. This also means the speedsofters who've made a reputation for themselves for getting banned from other fields may have a place to stay, only if they don't act like, well, fill-in-the-blanks. There are some on a permanent ban list at the moment so don't get onto it. Anyways, the grand re-opening is coming-up. The field is fun and yes, rentals are available.

There would only be about five or six of us, and we had a great time. Then when the owner left, ALL THE CHEATERS SHOW UP. The refs barely enforce the rules and there were too many people each round. The facility (and field) is extremely small, so god forbid 25-30 people try to get in. If you want to start getting into airsoft, or you already have a huge commitment to airsoft, don't come here.

One was more in the open with a bunch of barrels and the other one was right in the forrest. The one in the forrest was my fav and really cool. I went into this thinking that it will hurt so so much because that's what everyone has been telling me but the pain was not bad. Not sure if it's because of the adrenaline but the pain was durable. We had 25 people in our group and we all paid $35 each person which is not bad at all. I for sure would not recommend doing this in the summer. We were wearing long sleeve and pants to protect our body but it was so so hot! I would definitely come back again but preferably during springs or fall.

Be weary of the directions to get here ... it might make you do a U-turn when no U-turn is needed. It's directly off the road. Their bday parties start out at 8 people and cost comes out to about $25/person. They give you a covered area with benches, plus all the equipment. You can bring your own equipment, and highly suggest bringing gloves and very padded clothing that you don't mind getting dirty. It's also wise to bring a hoodie or something like a beanie to wear on your head. Three of the group members got hit on the head and one on the fingers. The airsoft bbs do cause a sting, and come out fast. They have an area for target practice and then a couple options on where to play: one is a small town area with netting so you can watch if you aren't playing. The other view are back in the woods with no access if you aren't playing. They do have the option to come and jump into a group to play, so you can come solo. The instructor we had was great and went over all the rules. I believe the kids had about an hour or so of playing. They have food options onsite, although very basic but kids don't seem to mind and it's food they'll eat. The experience was great and everyone had fun. Would recommend!

Outstanding paintball place…read more Most important things first: this place is safe. Their refs do an excellent at keeping everyone safe, keeping masks on and barrel covers on until they say otherwise. When someone gets hit, the refs do a great job at escorting a person off the field. Second, it's fun. Their equipment is excellent, and their maps are outstanding. They have probably 5 or 6 maps, and they have numerous variations on each map. If you want to defend your castle, or attack a castle, or plan long-range strategy, or duel off in an Old West town, or move down trenches or crawl through tunnels, they've got it all. They have loads of equipment; aside from the standard gun and paintballs, they have smoke grenades, extended barrels, and all kinds of other equipment. The business is family-run, and they are very reasonable. We had a few people not show up; they allowed the rest of our team to distribute the paintballs that would have gone to our extra people. I can't think of a way these folks could improve. Terrific facility; I'd recommend them again and again. Thank you, Arkenstone!

I expected that we would be playing in a dark room, with neon lights and would be inside, as most of the places I've played laser tag were set up this way. We were somewhat outside in an area that is shared between paintball and laser tag. There were Urban obstacles set up such as abandoned cars, a school bus buildings, construction zones, etc. Our session was 2hours, but we went a little longer (I think because after our first round we had to swap out so another group could go in). They have a binder a different game codes that you can play. My favorite was the original laser tag game and capture the flag. This is a very fun group activity. The atmosphere is very laid back. Wear athletic apparel or something you can move in that you don't mind getting dirty. Even though we were not outside paint balling, we still left pretty dirty. Note: I would've given it 5 stars, but I think there needs to be more signage by the street. Even though my GPS told me that I'd arrived, I passed by it because to me it just looked like a chop shop. The place looks pretty sketch (so much that I sent family the address in case it wasn't legit and something happened to me), but once I realized there was paint balling at the location, I understood. It's a great time! Please go!

I have had an ongoing problem with this business that it won't fix, up to now. Below is a summary…read moreof my experience. I spoke with four representatives of Wildfire Paintball; Mark R, before purchasing admission tickets for roughly 40 people, and Abby T., after my purchase in order to get more details about an outing being planned for a large group. The other two individuals were employees on duty at the paintball field to whom I spoke on separate occasions by phone well after the ticket purchase, to nail down cost information to pass on to my group members. The latter two individuals informed me, contrary to Mark and Abby, of Wildfire's insistence that each of my group participants would be required to pay for 500 paintballs at a minimum. I have since informed both Mark R. and Abby T. of this situation but neither of them have responded. Below is what I asked them to address: Mark, C. B. here.  I was arranging an event at Wildfire Paintball for Sunday afternoon, June 29, so I called Wildfire. My first call was perhaps a month ago (mid-May, and no mention of what I describe hereinbelow was made to me at that time). As you know, I got the tickets from you and they provide for admission and safety gear, all except the paintballs and CO2.   Well, an employee at Wildfire Paintball told me today (roughly two weeks ago now,) that the "minimum" paintball package for everyone in my event party would be 500 paintballs per person, costing over  $40.   That's absurd.  Anyone who wants to pay for 500 paintballs is welcome to do so but there are lesser paintball packages available for purchase ON THE WEBSITE!!! There is nothing, on the website or disclosed during our communications, that establishes a 500 paintball minimum purchase. You (Mark) and I had talked about total costs (as that was a big concern for me to convey to my group membership) and you pointed out that there were paintball purchase packages on the website.  I looked at the website during our call before I even agreed to buy the tickets and you were absolutely right about varying costs and paintball package availability. This business is apparently disgruntled because it can't sell us admission and safety gear all over again (which I have already paid $300 for, mind you) so it's trying to make up for lost revenue by redefining the meaning of the word "minimum", while ignoring its own website advertisement that clearly lays out the cost of the various available paintball packages, in order to increase the number of paintballs we have to buy to 500 "minimum", at a cost of over $40 per person plus the cost of the CO2 propellant. I will not accept this thinly veiled bait and switch tactic under any circumstances.   If I ever use these tickets, my group will buy whatever number of paintballs each individual desires, in increments of 100, as per Wildfire's representations on its website, and as contemplated by everyone who was involved in this transaction, including you, Mark. If the people running the show over there ever figure out that they might rather make SOME money than NO money, this could turn out to be a win-win for us all. Think about this. I contemplate a three hour window on a Sunday afternoon for a group that ranges in age from 8 to 70+. I need an executive manager who will make a better decision than gouging 8 to 70 year olds, both men and women, who would have difficulty running around and shooting 500 paintballs, in three hours, if you pointed the paintball gun and pulled the trigger for them. There are good reasons for such a wide range of price points for paintballs on your site. Isn't one such reason to give your customers a choice? You're trying to make our choice for us; a choice that inures to your benefit. Instead, try complying with the representations you have made through your representatives and on your website. Stop being so greedy! I will continue to update this review until Wildfire Paintball complies with its own website representations. Mail: veterans1@bellsouth.net
