technologically speaking whats next?

i recon for barrels, we will be looking at something like the apex/flatline, putting some kind of spin on the ball to make it shoot further, but having it so it is more compact and more accurate

for loaders, something faster isnt really needed, something ligher could be seen in the furture, or a loader that doesnt need batteries, maybe an internal pack with a charger (thus reducing weight and size)

for guns, who knows, faster again isnt really needed, something that hasnt been tried before could be an idea, but we need to find it first lol

for air, i have no idea, the only thing i can think of is better compressers that can do more than 4500psi, thus letting bottles get smaller and lighter

for paintball in general, i see the woodlands being used abit more but thats me

perhaps players will be able to wear head sets to communicate . they could avd little screens on the back of their hoppers that show where ever one on the feild is ( like the things boats have . sonars )

i dnt think hopper technology will ever get much smaller - its kinda restricted how small the drive cone can be for example due to the size of balls. the only thing that may get smaller is the motors used to drive them or the board used to run them. apart from that i cant see them changing much unless sumone finds a different way of feeding them.

That would make the biggest difference to paintball in my opinion.
that would be nice...
