Our group was sweating donkey balls the entire time. We ran a lot and tried to get to the entire field so we knew the angles better. Some player attitude but nothing I couldn't ignore. Mostly excitable youngins that don't understand social etiquette. There were a handful of whiners played the day we were there. I've played paintball back when it became popular in the early 2000's. Whining happened then too. So, I guess that's normal. The staff was good. The refs paid attention to the games from outside of the arena. They called out a few bad apples to correct their on-field playing mistakes. The equipment was decent and the staff addressed any issues quickly so players could get back on the field to play.

Can't complain too much since it's only $15 to add a rental package online ($18 in-person, which is annoying). How about raise it to $20 flat and get some new gear that works reliably = 2 stars The Pro Shop has a good selection of guns and accessories at fair prices compared to online Airsoft retailers. The knowledge of the salespeople however, isn't as good. I get better answers from AI on my phone while standing at the counter. The online reservation system is AWFUL!!! The website is difficult to navigate unless you read by picture. Looks more like multiple flyers glued to a screen that have hidden links in some, but not others. When you select a date, time, and location you end up with the right date and location, but varying times. I booked for 2 people for the 12pm - 4pm session and ended up with one at 12pm and the other @ 4:30pm. = 1 star The staff is friendly and generally helpful in getting issues worked out. That definitely helps, but with all of the online reservation stuff that has to be un-FUBARed, it takes away from the experience and play time. I'm not a web designer, but with most people using technology to purchase goods, services, and experiences, you'd think they'd do some market research to gather feedback on how to build a user-friendly website. We haven't tried any of the other Airsoft locations in Phoenix, but after our three (3) past experiences, I'm ready to move on from VIP Airsoft. It kinda sucks, because this place is close to our house and easy to get to.

The staff was helpful and the players (even though they were very serious and very good) were super nice. Everything was well run and explained well. We were the only girls there besides a few workers, but it was still a great time! I would recommend this place to anyone interested in giving paintball a try. The only thing is that I wouldn't use a Groupon because I think we ended up spending more than we would have otherwise (it was a little confusing). 500 paintballs was WAY too many for us - we used maybe 150 in two hours. Don't be scared though, it's a great time!

Telling people that there is no recording unless given permission by the staff. Then confronts some kids about who gave them permission to record and when they tell him, he says that he is the only one that can give permission.

I think I've had enough of that guys attitude, going somewhere else.

Beware if you are planning a kid's birthday party here…read more I booked my son's 11th birthday party at the Phoenix location after calling ahead to confirm details. When we arrived, the information given over the phone turned out to be completely inaccurate. Rather than helping us navigate the confusion their phone rep caused, the staff and on-duty manager were hostile, dismissive, and visibly annoyed with us from the start. For the entire three-hour reservation, every basic question from parents was met with extreme impatience and rudeness. We were made to feel like a complete nuisance just for being paying customers trying to run a safe, fun event for 11-year-olds. Managing group events can be hectic, but taking frustration out on kids and parents is unacceptable. Save yourself the stress and take your family celebrations somewhere that actually values customer service.

First of all, they ask if you want to play with others or among yourselves. We did the laser tag…read more As you know you never want to run over young children as your are engaged nor while focusing on a friendly opponent, do you want to be eliminated by a rascally kid shooting you in the back. Plus the equipment is minimal. No vest harness, no head harness, just the laser gun provided which gives it that urban warfare feel. Because of this there is no shooting in the back only front torso and gun can be targeted. The attendants were very attentive and helpful. They even cheered us on. Say hi to David when you go. Only improvement I would suggest is more merchandise like different t - shirts, hoodies, cups and water jugs. Maybe even ribbons or shirts with "Laser tag Killa" , "Can't tag this" (I give consent to use above tag lines). Even small lockers to rent and lock up valuables.

I love spooky season. Having had the chance to see both…read morerecently, I'm going to compare both ScArizona and Fear Farm. I had a great time at ScArizona. It was the first haunted house area I went to this season. I was most impressed by the passion of the hired actors. They really got into character and the costumes were great too. There were 2 haunted house options open the night I went. The overall grounds for a bit rough after the recent heavy rains. The place overall had a backwoods, abandoned construction site vibe to it. Going through two of the three haunted houses took less than an hour including waiting in line. The design of the haunted houses was good. A few jumpscares and definitely creepy characters. However, there wasn't much to do at the event grounds activity-wise after going to the haunted houses.

The house further off had way shorter lines last night so maybe start there, then go back to the one closer to the admission area. Either way the actors make waiting on line very fun!

Lack of customer service. We had placed an order in June for a jersey and number plate. When we…read morereceived the jersey some of the font was changed and also the colors, I can understand the issue with colors appearing different on the computer screen, and explained that to my son. I received an email back about the colors and asked when we should receive the number plate, approx 3 weeks later the number plate shows up in the mail. During those three weeks, not one return email or return phone call or return Facebook message from the company. The number plate head more than 10 air bubbles that were pretty significant in size. No return calls about why it was sent out with such poor quality. We had placed another jersey order and number plate order with the company before this all had taken place and still no calls returned about the status of that order. Very disappointing. At least acknowledge the customer, a simple email stating that they are busy and will look into it would have been nice.

I went here a couple Saturday mornings ago with a group of about six. It was the first time playing…read morepaintball for all of us, which staff was aware of. The staff was very friendly however it did seem to be a bit disorganized. For instance, they did an orientation for the first group initially there at opening however they did not do another orientation for anyone that may have come after they opened. I was under the impression that they would be doing another one when I asked and they said they were. So I did not attend that orientation since I was still waiting for the remainder of my group. Once my group bought tickets, we sat under a Ramada and waited until it was our turn to start a game. However, no one actually approached us to let us know it was time. We watched a referee approach another group and tell them it was time as well as their group letter. When we bought tickets, no one told us our group letter. There was another group nearby with the same issue and we both had to approach ticketing to learn our group letters, which were in fact with the group which was ready to play. Once getting on the field to play, there are so many different games you could play which is really cool and they do a good job explaining them to you. h However, they never explained how to use the gun. Once the game started, I found my gun didn't work and had to find out from nearby kids that it did not have air, which I did not realize I needed to check. I also don't understand why I was given a gun with no air when we were there at opening. One of the staff apologized that he forgot to let us know about this. He was very friendly. So we filled my gun with air. But going back, my gun still didn't work for the 2nd game, so I had to learn from the referee how to use the gun, making this the 2nd game that I was still unable to use the gun. If they were to give more clarity to new guests upon starting play, I think this would really improve the experience for beginners. The course seem to be extensive and they sell snacks, including full size bags of chips. For $45 they give you 500 paintballs, the gun, and the helmet and allow you to play until your paintballs are done. My group was able to play about Five or six games. Overall we enjoyed ourselves and had a good time. I would return.
