Your biggest DB fail


(boerhae) #1

One time on Trainyard, one of my teammates was delivering the final datacore to the objective. It was really close, we were deep in overtime, and he had almost finished the delivery. In an attempt to cover him from the spawning enemy, I got right next to him to be a human shield.

I ended up fucking it all up though. I walked in front of him and cut off his delivery, and since we were in overtime, he couldn’t start it back up again. I more or less lost that game for us singlehandedly. It was my biggest DB fail.

What are yours? Juicy stories pls :wink:

I’m a brilliant example of a great player. I’ve never ever made a single mistake. I’m perfect… Except for the times I miss easy kills when I end up behind someone, or when I cut peoples vision completely with Redeye’s smoke, or when I’m forgetting to help people up on their feet when I’m playing as a medic. The list goes on, but I don’t think I’ve ever made a MAJOR screw up. I’m sure my teammates have a different opinion, though!

I assumed my team would bring the EMP with them after I cleared out the entire rock on Chapel Last. I was wrong. We lost.

Every time I’m attacking on Chapel and I get to the last section, I always time my airstrikes with the spawning of the enemy team. I wait 1 second after they spawn, throw the airstrike so it lands from the little ramp out of the spawn, all the way to the end of the rock in a diagonal fashion. I wipe out the enemy team at least 3 times when my team gets to the last objective with a decent amount of time left in Objective mode.

The problem is that despite me doing this, even when playing with higher levels, they almost never deliver the objective. I don’t understand what is up with the awareness in DB, but players just don’t pay attention. The sad thing is, I tell my team before I even throw the airstrike. At most, there tends to be 1-3 enemies left alive and our team generally has 5-6 people left alive at least (I like 14-16 people servers). Added onto that, the fucking enemy team catches the long spawn with like 20 seconds until they spawn back in… BUT NO ONE DELIVERS EVEN WITH THE EMP CLOSE BY.

It’s insane man. I do it all by myself when I can (like when someone’s not holding onto the EMP). But it gets ridiculous. I can’t even keep track of the amount of fails on Chapel. The same scenario I’m talking about above also happens on the last stretch of the EV on Chapel. I wipe out the enemy team with a solid airstrike from behind, and no one escorts/repairs the EV!!!

/rant

Now for the personal fails… I FAIL EVERY TIME I TURN ON DIRTY BOMB. I’m a decent-good player and sometimes I just don’t feel like playing well so I ruin my team’s chances for winning. :slight_smile:

Let’s just admit… we’ve all been hit by the train at least once…


(XavienX) #8

Trying to jumpsnipe not realizing that the Devs removed it without warning.


(Herr_Hanz) #9

breaking the strongpoint of the rock on chapel 3rd obj as either a vassili or a thunder, dont remember. and standing there killing the enemy with 2 teammates for 2 spawnwaves. and still noone of our team went out to grab the emp out of the EV and deliver it.

also missing 5 sniper shots on a guy i was behind because he kept sidestepping just as i shot. and killing him with a headshot when he turns around. sometimes people are more easily killed from the front than from behind.

(AlphaUT) #16

Playing in PUG and start saying “nice!” “good job!” in discord or TS before we realize none of us actually bring the EMP with us.

whenever I’m chasing someone with healing pulse out but it goes off right before I get them in range.
