Let's discuss ways to annoy other players.


(RealBreezer) #121

What I like to do when I don’t feel like serious playing, is entering some server… glance at the different names on my team, pick one out and then find him on the map. Then just keep following him and make sure that there’s close body contact so if he he wants to turn around and run back he always bounces into you, don’t shoot at anything and run back to spawn if he would die.Iif he’s waiting for a medic just dance on his body.

I don’t know whether it annoys that person … only did it a few times but thinking of it… I might go 'n try that again in a minute :slight_smile:

Author a rather large, detailed thread inviting ET players to contribute, discuss and document the most annoying, facile tactics at large in excrutiating detail :open_mouth:

We were having a slow/boring game on fueldump on the -OSG- custom server (now folded) and the admin started doing that to individual people. Once I figured out what happened (first time I saw it,) the next time he did it, I tried my damnedest and got a legit SMG kill. Wow… was I proud of that one!
:clap:

!fling is also a fun command (during warmups)

Not really an annoying thing to anyone but the enemy, but I always pick up the opposing SMG (Tommy when I’m Axis, MP40 when Allies.) It’s always good for an extra kill or two when someone won’t fire on you as they are trying to figure out if you are covert or not (forgetting that coverts don’t carry that gun.) I’m always amazed how tuned people are to the gun sounds. I can run right behind a bad guy firing his “own brand” of weapon into his noggin and he will never turn around thinking I’m just some teammate with really bad aim…

:bump:


(Domipheus) #124

i dont get it


(TFate) #125

Oh man, I’ve been fooled so many times that way. I’m so used to the Thompson sound from my teammates I never look around or anything anymore. I’m going to try that more often.

Also here’s a thing people were doing on this one server yesterday… walk up behind a teammate and knife the air, then when he turns around put your knife away and keep walking normally. I had to LOL at that.

Also it’s fun to unleash loads of innaccurate ammo at this one guy and claim he’s cheating. You can back up this claim by fragging anybody else except him (e.g. give headshots to everyone who’s not an Axis medic, then when he comes around shoot wildly).

personaly i like to push people donw to the beach in seawall battery using “f” key. expesialy when someone have yelled “don’t run on the beach idiots!!” , then find him and drop him on the beach :smiley: (i have done it only once cuz usualy i play fair and fun games)

  1. capure depot yard in rail gun and then yell “wunderbar” “the enemy is weakend!”

  2. allways when teammate kills you , yell “great shot!!” like 10 times

4)run on teammates landmine and yell “we need dn engineer!” just long as 1 arrives , when d’he is enough close , jump away from the land mine (try to stay alive) when he dies yell “danke!”

  1. put smokes on your teammates who uses sniper or mobile mg

  2. when you kill a teammate , yell “no problem” and “great shot!”

7)if someone teamkills you , complain and scream what kind of teamkiller he is , if someone complains against you , then scream what kind of idiot complainer he is!


(BondyBoy007) #127

Didn’t do this on purpose but it sure did piss a few ppl off:-

Mess up your draw gun binds so that it’s entirley hit n miss whether you can see your gun or needle (ie. forget to put some waits in). Then when running to revive your teammates get out what your think is your needle, crouch over a wounded teamate and try to revive; when they get put into limbo scream “wtf why did u tap out” serveral times.

Rinse and repeat until you realise your stupidity, leave server in shame lol


(bubba g) #128

The number of times a ‘scroll-through’ medic has dropped a grenade on me when trying to revive…

‘Sorry’


(Riftgarde) #129

On a shrub server where feign death is enabled, play dead and V21 and watch medics on your team run to you with needles drawn.

Stand near teammates on FF servers and constantly fire the panzerfaust then lean, then fire then lean, then fire then lean then fire…


(lennyballa) #130

When i lag, i go nicklaming, find a server and be engineer (prefer goldrush, axis, 2nd spawn). Plant 2 mines, step on them, wait for your team to spawn and then jump off. I killed 7 teammates sometimes, and they cant complain for mines :p. Sometimes there is a no kick server, making it even more funny. And if they tk you, f1! :smiley:


(Ragnar_40k) #131

These both are for Fueldump:
When you a cov ops on the roof (w/o disguise) don’t listen to the engi who waits at the west gate which demands you to blast it. Continue instead your 1337 sniping with the FG42. When he shoots vaguely into your direction to attract your attention - simply tk him.

Ignore all hints that ETPro map scripts are enabled and that you can spawn at the allied command post - getting spawnkilled in the caves is alot funnier.


(BoomStick) #132

I just love the people that have the “word” pwn3d bound to a key and hit it every time they kill someone, and when someone kills them they blame it on lag or their teammates and get all hostile.

What pisses me off in ET

What they do to me:

  • Blocking Corridors
  • Player who constantly yell ‘The enemy is weakend’, especially when there getting owned.
  • Teammates who are XP hogs, they want to huild the command post when im outside working my ASS off trying to keep the other team from killing me. Especially when they then kill the enemy, take my XP and start bragging with v53
  • n00bs who pick a soldier with an SMG, when they could be something useful like a medic and have the same weapon.
  • n00bs who pick a panzer/MG42/Flamer and have no f***ing clue how to use it, and then refuse to give it up, sometimes i end up calling a vote and getting there sorry ass kicked. makes me feel better
  • n00bs who are always calling votes, then i call a vote and kick them, that makes me feel better too.

(Salteh) #134

What pisses me off in ET:

People saying ‘n00b!’, ‘panzerpussy!’, ‘m00b!’, complaining peeps :slight_smile:


(=DaRk=CrAzY-NuTTeR) #135

wtf is a m00b?


(Mr_Tickles) #136

a ‘m00b!’ is something that afflicts many people across the world, it is simply a smelling mistake.

I really hate it when someone /kill s in a firefight, not only does it deprive you of the xp but what’s worse it denies you the satisfaction of the kill.

I dislike people being in my way when trying to run somewhere in a hurry, especially on the first spawn of the map, I always seem to be the first one moving, and when there are other people spawning with you, you invariably get stuck behind a soldier carrying a panzer and surrounded by others so you can’t move for another few seconds until they’ve realised they’ve spawned. I know that’s a bit harsh, but it does irritate me. I like to be in the enemies face before they realise it :slight_smile:

Field ops who don’t give out ammo.

Medic’s who insist on finishing their firefight before reviving you.

People who repair the truck before getting the gold, especially when you’ve had a good run and taken out the contents of the bank (not including the gold).

People who don’t shuffle when the teams are oh so obviously unbalanced.

People who complain for being TK-revived.

People who throw smoke grenades on their own team’s snipers because they think the Covert Ops class shouldn’t exist.

People who think the Covert Ops class shouldn’t exist.

Honestly, it does grate me a bit when people finish me off when I’m wounded and waiting for a medic, but that’s part of the game so I can’t really complain.

People who TK me when I’m on full health and after I’ve announced I’m a covert op with a uniform on very low health and I have a very large blue exclamtion mark above my head. Oh, and don’t forget the huge red circle.

People who set off enemies mines as I spot them and then I get taken out by the mine, usually along with them.

How to annoy players? Well, as a medic you could go up to someone wanting a revive and poke at them constantly with a glow stick without ever hitting them, so hopefully they’ll miss their next spawn. Try to poke other players with your glow sticks when they’re alive when they’re asking for medikits. Also, drop medikits on dead people.

Had a game the other night with two friends, just showing one of them who’s new around the maps. We were on railgun and I played an Allied engineer against the two of them. I kept planting mines around the track switch and other places I knew they’d be going. About 5 minutes from the end I found out that they couldn’t see or spot the mines with a covert op. They were a bit pissed at that. :slight_smile:

Oh, and it does annoy me that some servers kick you if you alter your name or sometimes even your controls. I know it’s meant to stop people who try try to be funny by imitating someone but it is annoying none the less.


(Nocturne) #137

the thing that ticks me off most is when I’m an engy and plant dynamite at for instance the commandpost of the opposite side and then another engy comes and kills me, defuses my dynamite and places one himself to whore on that XP… and then thye get pissed coz u pressed F2 for the complaint


(Nail) #138

for me. it’s people who revive threads a year old


(Ragnar_40k) #139

Hey, this is a good thread and it deserves to be revived.


(Etnies) #140
