Post your funny, cool, strange, annoying, and just plain lucky kills, deaths and the like here. Yes, I know there are many topics like this, but they are all buried, long forgotten in various sections of the forum.

Two that happened two me in the same match
First, I managed to dodge two G5s from an enemy bot before sinking a Deer Master shot in his chest. Interestingly, he actually fell backwards, going up slightly in the air before falling down at a curve.

Secondly, the same bot later got shot in the chest multiple times, before he pulled out a shotgun in vain, getting his chest bashed inwards.

After two matches, I found the Redwood 6000 and HAMR to be my weapons of choice. On a somewhat related matter, I actually like the arc of the HAMR, as it allows for things like shooting over hills, cover and the like. In one topic, Kaboodles intelligently suggested that the scope be modified, not showing where the gun is pointing but where the shot will land. I support this idea and hope it is added into the next pack.

Edit: Fixed a cripeload of grammar mistakes in my post. Don't know how they got by me....

Read the full post if you didn't, Bjossi. By "I personally want to", I meant that I myself do. I don't mind others posting about other games. Also, I don't meen to say this statement in a sarcastic or annoyed way, but a "you missed a little bit there" or "you misunderstand" way.

What about 'connection interrupted' when you aim at someone's head with a sniper? XD

Or in Counterstrike, I saw a gun pointing behind a crate. I shot a few rounds trough the crate and got a lucky headshot XD He all angry and thought I was hacking.

New one. During a team deathmatch, full, sixteen-player teams, on Blackhawk, I managed to get an ultrakill in one shot. You know that little alley, leads to the broken wall, and also to the mosque and an elevated firing position, right? Well, saw a few Cyberdemons, Magdalenas and a few Doom 3 Sawyers in that little broken wall, and fired a HAMR round off. BOOM! Killed so many of em in that same spot with my HAMR, both at that occurence and a few others, that the ground was pitch-black from all the blood. Ewww....

Another one, just happened. While playing War of The Monsters, on the fourth level in Metro City. Playing as Raptros, Preytor had already been disposed of with a few shots from my long-range special, and was effectively toasted, I then had to deal with Congar. As he was nearing death, he attempts to run to a health pickup. Not leting the little bugger get away that easily, I fire off a few fireballs. Those who have played the game know that Congar, in his death animation, will thrash about for a second, fall to the ground, and desperately attempt to crawl forward. So, as he died, it looked as if, with his last few breaths, was, in vain, dragging himself across the ground toward the super-health as I screech in victory.

While playing a n onslaught match online with the thor tank in the vehicle rotator i noticed that you could actually destroy the enemy powercore by just bumping against the powercore with the thor tank brinning my team victory. This wouldn't be so funny if all the other guys who i was playing against said that the thor was a siisy tank and refused to use it

Those who refuse to use something for no reason at all are sissies.

New one, this time in the darkness. In Chapter 4, going to Pier 19 (Or was it 9?), I finally encountered the mugging part of the game. The idot yells "Stick 'em up, bitch! Gimme your wallet" Not even half a second later, litterlaly, not even joking about my reaction time, he was impaled on the end of a demon arm. Now, if the fact he only had enough time to walk up to me as I was turning the corner, pull out a pistol and say those words before being counter-attacked didn't seem funny, when I devoured his heart, the physics ended up causing him to look as if he was doing a breakdancing spin on his side.

Edit: Another one, same game, same session. Upon reaching the pier, I was assailed by some mobsters, one in a red coat getting impaled. Not seeing where the other two were, I see one in yellow run behind a yellow phone booth. Going around the corner, he fires in futility before getting a few rounds in the gut from my rifle. After that, I devoured his heart, causing him to slump over, and proceeded to launch a black hole at the last one, hiding and killing the last of em with the Creeping Dark. God this game is fun...

Hahaha! That's pretty hilarious. First, you crash and the banshee ends up totaled, going crit, and you jump out to avoid it exploding- And then it not only explodes and kills you, but it crushes you underneath even before that? Ah, good times... Good times...

Well, that beats anything!
In Heroes of Might and Magic III (I picked it up after looking at the "can anyone identify these?" thread and after checking out how it looks like), The Wake of Gods custom expansion pack, I capture a tower town, and build the best dwellings they had, stuffed in a Titan into my army, and waited for its original owner, a few squares off. Then he sneaks up and captures the town from behind me. So I had to slaughter him like a pig (since he didn't get a chance to attack anyway) and walk back to the town to recapture it, topping off a sweet victory.

I think there should be an aircraft training session...
In Battlefield 2, Gulf of Oman, everyone in the USMC always huddles on the deck to try to beat others to the re-spawning jets. Once, in the heat of battle, a full team loads into a Blackhawk and someone ran into the F-16. Both engines started, and the Blackhawk and F-16 collided the second after starting up, effectively hadicapping our army.


Talk about killing in style!
After starting a new Redguard character, I went to Vilverin, and after a potion or two, killed the bandits there. I looted the camp and fell asleep. Then, courtesy the Spell Book DLC, a Conjurer is standing there by the campfire, looking around. I walk up to him, and he turns around to see my hammer coming down right on his face. He didn't land the first blow or the last.

I'm still waiting for you to stop rolling...
With the extended death camera time mod in Oblivion (watch the ragdoll physics), I accidentally fell off a sharp incline, and when I died, I continued rolling down the hill. For some moments it looked like my guy would stop, but never did.

Bungee Jumping, and an IQ Test
Being the sadistic gamer I am, I love watching my Oblivion characters fall off Dive Rock (Or whatever it is), and also just die painful deaths. So I jumped off Dive Rock (pushed off some Legion Soldiers with me too), and I start falling down at a drastic pace. Then I see an oncoming rock, and my characters head bashes against it, sending him into a mid-air flip, and then he skids right into a bandit camp. There the bandits walk up to my carcass and say, "Welcome to Aerin's Camp!" Are you retarded? He's dead!

Ah, that cracked me up.... Especially the last one and the aircraft training bit, and the "sTop Rolling" one as well. Good times... Good times... *Realizes I already said that 3 posts up* Well, I couldn't think of a better ending note....

Devil May Cry-NERO ROCKS

I was playing Devil May Cry 4 with Nero and i was facing against Bael (Giant horny toad from hell) and i was almost dead (a Sliver of Health) so i went DT (Devil Trigger) and kicked Bael's ass, with one sliver of health left, and I got the Rusalka Corpse and the Filled with Pride Acheivement.

It's because normally you're not intended to be able to play after 3 seconds post-death. The fatality cam extends it to 10000 seconds, but the AI isn't set to recognize you're dead, since they probably won't address you by default. But after you die with fatality cam, the original music before the death music resumes, and so it probably removes all recognition of you being "dead."

A few new ones from Conker: Live & Reloaded multi.

Firstly, during an unfortunate event, I jumped down from one of the hills or tower I believe on A Bridge Too Narrow, and was already low on health after then, was promptly ran over by a jeep, right down the middle of my body. Sneekers don't get much health....

Second, while trying to escape a tank-on-tank battle, the two but 5 feet away from one another, jumping across the tanks, I was unluckily hit by a shell as I crossed over the enemies' tank. notably, neither tank survived the resulting explosion of the enemy tank and were destroyed utterly.

Lastly, what I was trying to DO as the sneeker (Yes, the game spells it that way.) First, as a sneeker, I needed to capture both mini-bases. Check. Secondl,y I had to capture the vehicle and specialist ordinance terminals. The latter of which, coming first, I had to disguise myself as an enemy, and because the doors don't recognize you as an ally when disguised (Damn AI upgrades.....), I had to wait for them to actually come out, then follow them in, hiding behind the terminal while hacking. My first attempt at the vehicle terminal ended with a bullet in my back and out my chest from a skyjockey or longranger, but I succeeded unscathed the second. Finally, now crippled and too stupid to re-hack the terminals, I just need to infltrate to the spawning room, with the ordinance terminal, and set up my two Earthguards (One-turret classes get two if you have more than one terminal, it seems. Or it might be a glitch or random thing). The middle of the room was piled with dead squirrels quickly thereafter for the last 2:00 1:30 of the match.

I've noitced something retarded about bots and the explosive device: They just leave them all over the place and forget about them.

So the story is this: I was playing CTF rail with bots. I snucked over to their base, and climbed up to that highest tower with the 3 NTOV bandages and a sniper weapon. I started to pick off bots with a ranger rifle on that tower. After I turned this bots head to a red mist I saw another bot running towards a garage. I shot him once, he didnt go down, I shot at him the second time and he died. However, the bullet didnt strike him. There was a FP9 that a bot left on the ground next to him and my bullet struck that.
