Re: Epic Gaming Moments
I was playing Halo 3 forge on Sandbox with my friend, and it was tied for the score. so i go into forge mode and spawn a tank. I was really high up so he wouldnt be able to shoot me. I dropped the scorpion, and when it hit the ground, I saw something shoot out of the back. When I reviewed the movie later in theater later, I saw two things:
1 That thing that shot across the map was my friend.
2 The tank landing on him didn't kill him. What killed him was him being shot out from under the tank so fast, that he flew all the way into the dark sand area, the guardians shooting at him the entire time, and over the wall at the edge. When he went over the wall, he was still flying up, and it said that he fell to his death, like gravity has the opposite effect out there.

Re: Epic Gaming Moments
I was playing online and, as some of you know, my username is Commander Dave. So I saw a group in Jabba's Palace with a reasonable amount of people in it so I joined. When I got in the group I saw someone say "hi dave" so I said hi back and then I saw about 4 other people with Dave in their name say hi too
BTW My name isn't actually dave in case you were wondering

Re: Epic Gaming Moments
In Halo Wars, I was unaware that they gave the AI some new tactics in one of the updates, so I just started a normal match against one on Tundra. Within 3 minutes, he had Zerg Rushed me with almost 7 Wraiths on my base with no Shield Generators. My immediate reaction was to yell a slightly different version of "Whack the Frog!" very many times, but then I realized I needed help. With no tech levels, I was forced to rebuild a temple on my secondary base, and then build a Factory. I managed to build 3 Locusts, more than enough to destroy his remaining Wraiths, his Prophet, and his new base. I then went a little nuts and built like 40 Elite/Grunt packs, took the Mega Turret in the center, and threw all of their Plasma Grenades at his last base while using the Mega Turret to wipe out his Scarab. Let's just say he didn't last long.

Ok, this is weird. You guys remember the one-shot-two-pilots helicopter thing in CoD4, right? Well, I could have sworn it happened to me again!
In other odd and random things to happen today, This. It's the hardest game I've ever seen.

Perhaps its a bug?Null_1138 wrote: Ok, this is weird. You guys remember the one-shot-two-pilots helicopter thing in CoD4, right? Well, I could have sworn it happened to me again!Its like its taunting me!
BTW, since Im speaking about bugs... I was playing Gothic and Gothic 2 NotR pretty much lately, and I always have to laugh when I run into some little bugs in that games. For example I wanted to sleep, went to someones house and went to bed while the owner of that house was making an angry face and telling me to get out. Well I have ignored him and slept till next morning. So what did I see... it lookd like the owner of the house was standing all the night long at his bed where I was sleeping just to tell me when I woke up: "Hey, get out of my house!"

Re: Epic Gaming Moments
I wouldnt wait the whole night till the violator of my privacy wakes up, I would kick him out of my house the same moment he would get in... or call the police (guards in Gothic games
).
Thats quite different from how I described the behavior of the Gothic AI, isnt it?

Re: Epic Gaming Moments
In Halo 3, I was playing MLG Team Ball on Foundry while my friend was AFK. Not 5 minutes into the game, our team was down with the score at about 200 to 60 (those points being mine) thanks to my not-exactly-great teammates. At around that time, my friend started playing again. After a long, hard battle, we came back and won the game with a final score of 250 to 238. Not very dramatic in description, but believe me, it was epic.

Re: Epic Gaming Moments
So I'm playing an FoC mod earlier, and the Empire attacks Bespin, which I have to defend. I don't have much of a fleet there, but my Space station is upgraded pretty high, which gives me a good sized garrison. So, some TIE Interceptors, TIE Bombers, and TIE Scouts appear along with an Acclamator. Not too bad. Then, two Victory-II SDs come in along with a hero unit (forget which one) in a huge Star Destroyer, and Strike-class cruisers are coming in. At this point, I'm going "Holy crap!", but I was able to eventually win using my simple but probably reckless strategy: unleashing my fleet en masse against the enemy. Final score: 0 losses for me, and for the Empire losses: 1 hero, 2 Victory-II SDs, 5 TIE Scout squadrons, 2 Acclamators, and 5 Strike cruisers. I couldn't believe it.

Re: Epic Gaming Moments
once i was playing foc, and i was playing online, it was a 3v3.... my 2 allies left the game for some odd reason... i was consortium and the opponent was empire, i rushed the other guys with only grenadire troopers, and somehow i was able to win XD, the worst part was they landed all they could, yet they had so much time to build turrets to smother my troops, it was fun...
