Least satisfying moments

As a follow-up to this thread: http://www.splashdamage.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3424

Which moments made you go like “omg, this team sucks!”

For me, I was playing as axis in goldrush, and we had placed like 10 mines in front of the truck, and kept control over the gun nest just around the corner. No matter what the allies tried to do, they couldn’t get to the truck alive. Then a total noob engineer stepped on top of a bunch of mines and then started disabling all the other mines one by one. We would’ve won if it wasn’t for him :bash:

Planting 5 (five) dynos at the gun controls at Battery, only to get killed by a bunch of Axis engineers (I had no backup and was low on health :-() which defuse all dynos.

1. I normally play medic, and try to do the most healing I can. But one day, I healed too much! We were Axis defending the Anti-Tank guns. I’m running towards the last gun where a single Allied engineer has been causing trouble. Just outside the gun room I revive an Axis engineer. I tried to do a “drive-by revive”, but he was exactly in the doorway, and blocked me for 3 seconds allowing the bad engie to plant dynamite. “No, problem”, I say, “we’ve got an engineer right here to defuse”.

So he gets out of the way and I run into the room. I shoot the Ally a little, and then go to revive another Axis laying besides the gun. He stands up, switches his flamerthrower for a pistol, and TKs our engineer. I die soon after, and we lose the map.

2.I’m an Allied sniper on battery. I always like to snipe at the beginning of the map, because it’s the only place where I can zoom in for some headshots and not feel like I’m wasting time. So the ramp gets built, and 3 guys run up. I kill an Axis MGer, but the rear MG shoots up our guys. So I wait for the next wave to come, while protecting the ramp from Axis satchels. An Axis Covert steps up behind the ramp, and I put a perfect snap-shot through his forhead.

As you can guess, he filed a complaint on me. That’s why you should V6 after getting a disguise!


(Ragnar_40k) #4

When you kill him with one shot the v6 wouldn’t help anyways.


(Ranstaton) #5

and the red circle wont show up fast enough if you twitch a shot at his ass


(Pamper) #6

If he’d V6ed (“I’m a Covert Ops”) before coming over the ridge, then I’d have seen a blue icon floating over his head, and known not to shoot.

I hate that too, alot of times when the action gets tense the red circle dont show up till after I kill my own disgiused teammate usually resulting in a complaint and/or kick vote. :banghead:


(Croaker) #8

When defending the bank as axis on goldrush - My bloody teammate cov-ops that think it’s a good idea to run into the bank dressed in an allied uniform - Then complain when they get killed in .1 sec. :banghead:


(ETplayer) #9

you killed:

-your own mother/father
-your sister/brother
-a little puppy

some ppl used those as names
:bash:


(Cosmos) #10

-your own mother/father
-your sister/brother
-a little puppy

Also: teammate (they put it in red so you might say sorry for killing the enemy).

With about 8 players per team, a friend and I went allied engineers on the beginning of Fuel Dump. Before the axis could get their defence on its feet, we rushed forward, build and reinforced the bridge. We felt quite pleased with this, until we realised that nobody on the team had moved the tank anywhere. It was just sitting where it started. :banghead: The delay resulted in them blowing the bridge and several more minutes before we got the tank across.

On a lighter note, I was both frustrated and amused when on Seawall Battery, rushing to defuse dynamite at the Gun Controls, I got out my pliers, began defusing, hit mousewheel down by mistake and dropped a grenade at my feet. Not clever. :smiley:


(Doc) #12

Man, I feel sorry for you. What kind of jackass would file and try to vote kick after a single shot killed his enemy-uniform-covered butt. He’s a covop - he should expect that sort of thing sometimes, and at least spam v6 (within reason) when in uni. Arrogant people like that piss me off.
:angry:


(Rippin Kitten) #13

Mine happened tonight. Played a brutal game on radar where our allied team couldn’t make any headway. Finally we overcome the side d and get the CP built. I /kill and respawn as a medic, and with a little fancy footwork steal the east parts and escape through the side entrance. On my way to allied spawn, ET performs an illegal op and crashes me to desktop.

(WiGgLeRiCe) #14

nothing worse then having the auto switch choose your fate for you . I would plant a mine and instead of autoswitch choosing the pliers , it would choose the grenade loaded grenade launcher for me , plink… BOOM!

I hate it when it does that


(Jahuu) #15

To pamper:

I had the excactly opposite on the same map:

I was a covop, I had smoked the ramp build site and when the engy got it built I rushed up. So I get to a firefight win it and start taking an uniform. I get it and start rushing down to beach, shouting “I am a covert op!!!” So what happens, one of our “dark-and-mystical-super-sniping-gods” decides to shoot me, I was using V-6 for some 4 times!!!
So I file a complaint against him, saying: “I got the uniform after hard work and you blew it, on a side note you have not done anything on the map except sniping which does not help our team” So after this he calls a vote to kick me!!!

Thanks god our team was moron-free and I didn´t get kicked. But after this he started to TK me intentionally. Thank god we could kick this moron, by voting.


(Doc) #16

Morons and noobs… god I hate morons and noobs… at least noobs have the potential to get better, but morons are forever…

Fuel Dump seems to be the pinnacle for bringing out stupid behavior.

It’s down to the wire. I’m an Axis engineer. Allies sneak in an engineer and plant. I run to the roof, waste the infiltrators, and jump down to defuse. All is quiet. There are obviously no more enemies around, so I am free to save the day for my team…

Chairman Kaga WAS KILLED BY TEAMMATE BlitheringMoron
Allies have destroyed the Fuel Dump!

Yep, someone invariably hallucinates an enemy inside the dump and throws something in to take them out. I have been TKed while defusing in all these wonderful ways:

  1. Grenade
  2. Rifle grenade
  3. Airstrike (AIRSTRIKE OUR OWN BASE??? WTF ARE YOU THINKING???)
  4. Just flat out shot to death (HINT: COVERTS DON’T HAVE PLIERS)

It happened to me again tonight…that’s like the 30th time I’ve lost Fuel Dump as Axis in that manner.

Last night on Seawall Battery:

It was 8 vs 8, but my team (allies) had 3 covered ops.
They all tried to be the sniper king, but really sucked (I suck too @ sniping, so I knwo what I’m talking about :D, but they were gods of sucking).
Axis came running down the beach and died, but none of the covered ops felt like taking the uniform :banghead:
One threw (i guess by mistake) a smoke nade to the assualt ramp, so at last one time I could build it. Of course axis had plenty of covered ops ready to blow it… :angry:

As if that wasn’t bad enough we had 1 engineer and one soldier lurking at the backdoor, they had fun shooting/nading/dynamiting the mg-nest there.

The other day I caputured on that map 4 times the forward bunker and no single comrade felt like changing the spawn. Instead I got bombed by an retard with his mortar when I left it… :bash:

I guess the next time I encounter such a situation I take the Panzerfaust and hunt all retards in my team, I’m so fed up with these idiots!

And I have a question: why choose the people with the smallest brains usually the biggest weapons (Panzerfaust)?
(Wich does not mean that all that take it are morons, I also have seen guys making good use of it).


(Jahuu) #19

Yes it happens very often on battery that people start using their snipers, have fun and join the spectators and watch their “sniping” for a while, boy if I sucked that bad at sniping I would not know what to do.

On a side note: Sniping does not do anything on battery, there are two cases:

1.On unlimited lives people just spawn after 10 secs and are agian stopping the allies to build the ramp.
2.On max lives, their medics come and save them, so it does nothing here either!!!


(Watchers Eye) #20

Generally, on Gold Rush, several engineers will go after the truck barriers rather than get the tank. This continues through the whole game.

And the ‘not bringing the tank’ thing on Fuel Dump is annoying as hell.
