Aarrghh moments

AnCapaillMor

nothing to do with noobs or assholes in the game. Just things that happen in the game that annoy you, mistakes you make or bugs.

Top being when you go jump in front of someone to shoot them, hold your finger on the mouse button and then fire one shot into the person and you realise you've the gun on the single fire. Happens too many times to me and my right hand hurts from punching the wardrobe.

2nd most annoying, jeep comes along, and you're anti-tank you switch to rocket launcher and then realise you never reloaded the launcher last time you used it and promptly get run over halfways through reload. Actually anyone have a rocket go thru a humvee doing no damage, happened a few times to me.

3rd reloading on sam sites and TOW when an tank\heli is bearing down on you.

Jumping off low level buildings. Its happened to me SO many times, on buildings that are just about high enough to para. In a round I`l know this building is high enough and I jump off and start hitting my para key and sometimes it just doesn`t work, even though I`v done it b4 and I`m possitive I`m the correct height. Pisses me off SO much.

reloading and then this guy comes out of no where will you run like a nutter trying to get cover to finish when boom, you will respawn in 15 seconds

Keyzer

Jumping off the tower in sharqi, deploying my shoot, landing on the sloped side of the building (still think im parachuting), falling to an abrupt death....
Thats really gets me going...

Yep, too often! I see a humvee,buggy,jeep bearing down at me so I fire a rocket head on and it just goes right thru the vehicle and I get run over.

Wonder if it's bug or due to lag?

Emptying an entire fuppin' clip dead-on-target at close-quarters and... nothing. Single bang or boom from other side, and respawn in 15 secs. :mad:

Emptying an entire fuppin' sniping clip dead-on-target, with target not far enough for bullet drop to be factor and... nothing. Bang or Boom during reload. Respawn in 15 secs. :mad:

(This one actually happened Monday night-)
Laying prone @ Karkand to south of hotel, behind/near corrugated iron fence, waiting for attacking USMCs to line up before my tube... here they come... clickety-click... fooomp-[immediate boooom and TK!]: squaddie just jumped over me to go at them gung-ho, and landed smack in front of the tube just as I was firing (:mad: ... but made me laugh, despite the -7 )

Not shooting a guy cause ya see blue wrighting over his head only to realise that there is a firendly 3 miles away in a direct line to the enemy, even when he looks hostile it makes me pause, and what do pauses mean prizes?, nope deaths!

whiskeyman

Had just taken the Cement Factory at Karkand.
After cap, I took up a position up the chimney to keep watch for tanks or APCs (I was AT).
Looked all clear, so I jumped down and opened parachure... only for someone to spawn below and me to crush him.
[Parachute] kill and the git punished me for a tk...
That got a lengthy "aaaarrrghhh!!!"

In BF2 you could have the muzzle of the sniper rifle against an enemys head Reservoir Dogs style and still miss.

jaggeh

blowing the **** out of a blackhawk full of people only to have a peice of wreckage randomly fly into my flight line and kill me, then get accused of being a noob kamikaze.

jonski

Flying the jet and out manouvering the lock on only to run out of mouse mat and therefore control . Happens to me a lot , but I don't punch the wardrobe as I have no intention of getting up and going upstairs

had that problem the other day, was mec on karkand, in the top of a stolen hummer, started shooting at a guy with the heavy mg. luckily didnt kill him. only fired a couple of rounds, stopped when i took a harder look and realised he was one of my own. his name was in red above him.

i'd say one of the most annoying things is driving over a guy who is prone on the ground. u stop, get out of the vehicle only to see him standing there, not a scratch, and he shoots u dead. i servived a couple of these.

tring to get me knife basic badge and getting n00b tubbed from people on roofs

Lmao, i do it all the time aswell

-- Shooting the TV guided and for some god known reason it seems to actually go through the heli

-- Sitting over someone trying to knife them but they wont die, then 5 secs later they turn see you and promptly empty a clip into ye

-- Shooting down jets only to have the rubble fly into ye :eek:

-- The sound of a Lock-On, for any heli pilots or passengers youll know what im talkin about on Dragon Valley, Beehh beeehh beehhhhh, it haunts me in my dreams

-- Somehow being outsniped on the top of the TV station by someone with a G36 miles away :mad:

-- Gettin into a plane, only to have some guy stand in front and making you teamkill him, and then punish you too

-- Doing deadly in a je or heli, only to have your teammate crash into you, but for some reason YOU have commited the teamkill (i think its the person with the most health = teamkiller ) :mad: :mad:

-- Kamikaze pilots

-- Spawning in the middle of artillery

Don't know if that was you, but I did one of those recently... and no, it wasn't a G36, t'was a good auld M16A2

Yeah, 'tis ain't fun Especially when it's the last flag alive and the OpForce is arty-raping the base...b*st*rds!

Good call on getting the knife badge, its doing my nut in at the moment, knifing seems to have gone impossible in the past patch. Snuck up on a sniper last night and don't ask me how but i missed 4 times while he was prone and got shot point blank with the sniper rifle for my troubles.

One more thing trying to drop 3 C4's quickly when you only have 2, BOOM!!!!

I'm pretty sure thats a feature, i remember seeing videos of BF2 before it was released of missiles flying through the open doors of a blackhawk, so i assume it's possile with buggys and jeeps [esp buggys the bloody things are just a seat selotaped to some pipes, welded to an engine.]

jaggeh

the problem with firing at a hummer head on is where ou aim, most people will aim dead center and this does sometimes hit but the rocket can 'pass' through the glass and continue on its journey.

the best place to aim is towards the wheels or the left/right headlamp, garunteed hit every time.

another argh moment is flying into a freshly spawned supply crate :v:

Good to know. thanks

AnCapaillMor

Still tho with a jeep bearing down on you aiming for a specific spot is the last thing you thinks of. If if it goes thru the window how comes theres no broken glass.

SeantheMan

I dont even think, i just rrruuuuunnnnnn, Rrrruunnn Ffoorreeesst Ruuunnn

jaggeh

if you cant aim under pressure try another game.

Ziycon

happened to me today, rocket went straight under a jeep and didnt do any damage! dont know how it happened but so annoying!!!!!!!!!

Dodgy bloody C4. The control system is buggy as hell. Now, theres the first problem, in that you can't get to the button until the C4 has landed, and if you press it twice nothing will happen, and THEN it'll switch and switch back.

You toss three C4 over a wall right onto a tank, swap to the detonator, click to detonate, and it drops another C4 in your face...meaning you can no longer blow the tank without killing yourself and your team.

The next on has only happened once. I was taking the tower on sharqi, and placed two C4 to kill any one who tried to stop me. I was sitting there with the detonator in my hand waiting. Assault troop runs around the corner and I go "aha!" *click*!. Nothing. :eek: CLICK CLICK CLICK!!! Nothing. Choomp, he noob toobs me... The C4 just sat there and refused to detonate.

Zen 2nd

Was in a fighter jet and took a sharp turn right only to fly straight into my teammate.

Several time while in a fighter jet I have taken out friendly forces by a seemingly stray missile.

While flying a helicopter and just clipping the top of a tree and you get caught on it and explode.

They're heatseeking. If it misses the first target it will lock onto anything nearby, usually a friendly chopper.

Lesson: Don't fire missiles when friendly targets are nearby.

most irritating moments? Th countless times ive shot people in the face with the SA-80 and had them kill me instead :rolleyes:
Hit registration in bf2 sucks sack

What i hate, is when you actualy get a great gunner, and your taking off from the carier, only for a jet/arty to blow you up, as your 3 seconds away from bieng safe. Arrggh

Airblazer

when I'm flying and line up the gunner for tank/apc shots and he shoots the minigun at them..and if it's soldiers he fires a tv missile at them and misses....aaarrrgghghghhgghgghhghgh

was playing last week on sharqi and was flying..had a gunner and basically lined him up about 3 ft level from enemy soldiers and did he shoot..not a fvckin chance..i ended up having to kill soldiers by landing the chopper on them and skiiing all over their ass...my noob gunner then told me that i was a crap pilot at the end of the round to which i replied that in the first 30 secs of him being in the chopper I lined him up for approx 10 kills..none of which he took becuase he was too busy pulling his cocckk

"I NEED A RIDE"
2 problems here

1) So ya reverse up so a guy can jump in and ya roll over him and he punished ya

2) Ya take longer to leave the base waiting for the guy to jump in and ya get artyed.

Some server have rules about filling up the vechieles before ya leave the base, but some times this is inpraticle. Espicialy when the base gets artyed every 10 seconds.

jaggeh

ok now this onyl applies to special forces

example: you are MEC on warlord and you and another team mate are on the roof of the tv station, he fires a zip to the opposite side of the road so you can attack the plaza flag.

he jumps on the zip line and while hes zipping over you give him some cover, then you go to follow him.

A few meters along he reclaism the zipline and you plummet to your death.

AAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!

Well that explains my constant team killing. :eek:

You'll probably have someone post "some guy keeps firing rockets at me from a jet and he's on my team!"

If I had known they were heat seeking I guess I would have been less hasty.
