What was your 1337est moment in game?

What was your best moment in game?

For me it would have to be the time I owned a terran with a sweeper at close range, armed only with a bolt driver when he had gotten the drop on me. I had just logged in and harted behind enemy lines on a highly contested continent. I had just set up sniper shop on a hill by a back-line base when I started taking damage. I spun around and saw a charging terran with a sweeper. I took a pot shot at him assuming I was going to die, and hit. He got scarred and retreated a little bit while I reloaded. At that point, all I had to do was charge him and hit him a second time. It was another successful hit, and he dropped. He later sent me a tell complementing me on my truly 1337 kill.

Last night I ordered Core Combat so I could use the weapons, and I purchased a flail with my vehicle character (Cube). My squad had a wp on the base and I started shelling it, but I was getting no hits whatsoever. I decided that it kind of sucked to be doing that, and rolled my flail onto a hill overlooking the highly contested base. I must have killed 50 or more people with that flail. I could see the courtyard and they were firing up at me, but I laid waste to them every time they fired. I destroyed two packed courtyard AMSs and a couple of vehicles without breaking a sweat.

Eventually other flails set up on the hill, but the cy was basically clear of enemies at that point. I guess that doesn't demonstrate my own leetness as much as how ridiculously overpowered the flail is under the right circumstances.

WOW that's a lot I've never had luck with a flail. I don't even think I got a kill that whole night that I had the cert but, then again I didn't have a spotter or whatever they call them
And I can't think of my best moment right now but when I do I will edit this post .

[Desperado]

hotdropped over a hot TR base, surged down with my lasher, killed about 16 infantry and 2 maxes

I declared wtfpwnage

[oddfish]

Once, and only once, my stolen Striker and I took out a Magrider all by my lonesome, essentially at point blank range.

This may not sound to profound or impressive, but hear the tale.

It was a warm spring eve on Cyssor and we'd just finished hacking Leza back from the TR. I'm rather fond of TR weaponry for one reason or another so I went ahead and ran all over the base looking for packs to loot. I picked up three MCG's, two Cyclers, and two Strikers with plenty of rockets. It was a pretty good salvage run.

Anyways, i'm making my way out of the spawn room and i get a broadcast from some n00b screaming ENEMY TANKS because he doesn't know how to use macros yet. then, subsequently, i hear four or five macros shouting the same thing.

My squad leader knew that i loved hitting tanks more than anything and told me to have a look at the north end of the base. I went, and there were many a tank. But i expected two or three prowlers. In the stead of prowlers, i see six Magriders cruising through trees and up the road toward the north end of Leza.

Playtime!

I ran out to see what was going on and i get a local saying ph34r teh M4gr1dr!!11!
I heard that loud and clear, those thing's are an infantry squad's worst nightmare. Anyways i made my way out to the woods and took cover for a short while until a mag floated right past my ass and scared the shit out of me. I thought THAT was close, then i step out from behind the tree and another floats by shooting, not at me, but still, scared the shit out of me.

I started lagging and didn't know where the hell i was for a sec, then my computer picked up and here i'm standing next to a tree and a VS carrying a Lasher. I had my striker out and was in no position to take on a Lash spammer, so i ran around the tree and then darted toward a big ass rock. I ran around it and on the other side to greet me was a Magrider, which was currently strafing and firing the stationary gun at some poor Gauss sniper on the wall.

I drew the Striker and opened up in dumb-fire mode. I got off two shots and the tank started strafing in my direction. I ran behind the rock and was face to face with the VS carrying the Lasher. So, i did the dumbest thing i could think of and shot him with my striker. He dropped. I never laughed so hard in my life! then, the mag comes rolling around to the other side of the rock, where i'm busy laughing about my amazing luck. I saw it and sprinted as fast as i could for the other side of the rock. I turned on my implat, advanced targetting thingy, a waste of an implant sometimes, but not if you want to know which tank is lowest on armor and only needs a couple shots to go bye bye. I ran around the rock, saw the ass end of the Mag and it read at full armor. I about shit. It takes about quite a few shots from the Striker to nail a Mag, so I was currently getting my game face on.

I ran out, chucked a Jammer grenade and started hitting the ass of the Mag with rocket after rocket in dumb-fire until it started running. It got around the other side of the rock and glided toward a tree, then came charging back toward me. I had no more jammers so it was a straight up fight now. The tank had quite a bit of armor left so it wasn't too afraid of one Rexo with a Striker. We played hide and seek for almost three whole minutes, i used another clip of rockets plus a few more and both my medpacks, the tank was almost done. It drove around the rock a few times and i ran around just as many. It was hilarious. I waited and waited and waited. Finally he made a move to the other side of the rock and i hit the Mag a few times. It realized it was pretty near screwed so it took off. I shot at it and missed, then again and missed, turned on radar guidance and waited, waited, and shot. The rocket put the tank on it's last leg. One more hit and it was gone. I locked, fired, and added another Mag to my stats. It was great. Shoot, he was probably a n00b, but it was still extremely fun shooting that Mag in the ass. I hate mags.

I dunno, probably when me and my squad were looking up at an enemy gal, few of us got striker locks, fired a few rockets, and he just flew right into the sea...and drowned. Can only figure he got so scared he was like "wtfomgomgomg it's BigFreak and his leet krew" and lost mental stability.

[Krinsath]

Taking out a VS Lasher during it's recently insane overpowerering. On Forseral near Caer...guy was just spamming me with orbs. I was armed with a Repeater, the BD and a striker, not a real CQB loadout. I run up a hill to a tree and crouch figuring that this is one of those VS n00bs and wait. Sure enough, he comes right up the hill and gets a sniper round to the face. I then pull out the repeater and start shooting, Take him down and just say "damn, I'm glad that's one band wagoner that's not on my empire"

My other favorite was as a sniper on Markov for the VS where the TR were evidently not issued brains. Was set up covering the approach from the tower to the base (somewhere on Esamir) and there were about 15-25 TR in the tower. I'm just sitting there pegging random targets of opportunity (i.e. - not going for kills so much as hitting anything dumb enough to pop it's head up....which in the case of TR Markov is evidently a lot). Of course, it occurs to none of these guys to go back and heal...nor did anyone cert medic obviously, but they figure after 10 seconds, the sniper that *just hit them* forgot about them, because sure enough they start sticking those big red elmo heads of theirs up again. They're just standing relatively close together and the (then) Advanced Targetting implant and see that there's a whole cluster of about six or seven TR that are below half health. I just start chambering rounds and dropping those bastiches as fast as I could load the rifle. The kill window almost got sniper spammed out...which is impressive for anything other than blowing up an AMS. That's not so much 1337 as it is "wow, those guys were DUMB"

[GreyFox]

When I snipered 4 NC guys from behind.

Sniped one, he went back to heal. Stood still. Dead.
Rince and repeat.

And they even had a max to protect them and everything.

Not many kills, but a lovely moment for me

[CorDharel]

Best moment for me is when I think about the people I already killed (playing time: 2 or 3 long long evenings)... 1 MAX and 4 normals *0wn0r*

The Flail is like a Crack Addiction

One day on Ishundar with the newly purchased Core Combat I decided to check out the flail. The Zer was caught up between Enkidu(NC) and Akkan(Tr), I just set a waypoint on the Vehicle pad @ the dropship center and got 300 kills for the day cuz all i did was flail for an hour. Now back to the drug analogy, after that day I fell in love with the flail I was addicted. But I could never find the kill spam I once had like the first time I ever used it. I've been cold turkey from the flail for about 4 months now and I couldn't be happier


1337357 moment

It would have to be when one day on Cyssor the VS were starting the "Hack Orisha every half an hour" attack. A good full squad was there it was (This is during the Lasher 2.5 era). I just came from solsar fight'n off TR with my newly acquired MCG, I flew down there in mos Killed 2 outside ran inside got one hiding behind the lil compartment in the Air terminal room. Healed up then ran in got the two I only had 1 deci on me vs. Quasar and a Comet I took out the Quasar first shot 1 into the commet ran down all the way to spawn tubes got my armor again got the quasar. Then on my way back up the 3 left that were in the spawn came down after me. Luckily I had Interlink on my side so I played cat and mouse and picked em off 1 by 1. Surely enough they respawned @ the tower and capped the base but that was the first time I took out a whole squad by myself ;-)

[Otherick]

I still remember the first time I played the game at a friends house when I got my first kill.

I had just spawned at a tower and just messing around I go upstairs with suppresor and standard, I see a TR with MCG and rexo and he kills me (big surprise) I spawn again and hes there, firing at the other spawn tube, so I crouched behind a eqiupment terminal and fired............and I killed him.

Meaning that my first kill was a TR in Rexo with a MCG while all I had was standard and suppresor. w00t

[Acaila]

A Starfire was picking on a buddy of mine in a Reaver, I was in a Vanguard gunning. I got it mid jump with the main gun (1st shot I fired at it, but it had taken a bit of a rocket spam) from about half an SOI distance away. My driver and I at the same time said "that was a fucking beautiful shot" on TS. Not really a 1337 moment, more just a great fluke shot.

1337est moment would've been raping 3 lightnings in my lightning all at the same time in that stretch between Itan and Kaang right after the BP. Or defending that top base on the island on Searhus by myself from 8 TR all on my own for over an hour. They came in groups of 3-4 so I went Cambodian on them.

[Kikinchikin]

Probably when I was commanding a platoon in 7th Legion and we started a massive invasion and ended up taking 3 continents in addition to our 4 that we already had locked. We had a convoy of 10 prowlers, 25 aircraft, some transport/atvs and lightnings etc.
Or when I started an invasion of Esamir with only the help of a squad of dragonwolves and we ended up getting 200+ ppeople on the cont and locked it.

As far as killing streaks go- I surged into a tower back in the Rexo days and took down 5 conglomerates, then rushed into the basement of the tower spamming with thumpers, then hacked the terminal, got a pounder and spawncamped for another few minutes till we took the tower. Got about 20 kills or so.

I can cite numerous other occasions where I've pwnd very badly (like my 100 kills in 2 hrs on Searhus driving a magmower that i stole).

[Mag]

Mine had to be taking down a reaver that was looking for me (I was in an infilitration suit) with my MagScatter.
