[Someone Else]

We've all had our times. We know, we've all had the awkward or dumb death every now and again. Share it here.

I'll post mine later.

[Mallick]

In which games? O_o

Are we just supposed to say any game?

[I'm Always BROKE]

Heheh I remember one now.
It was on Fire Emblem 6. My archer was surounded by lots of enemies.
I only had 1 HP and dodged it all. Well then it was my turn. Since I was totally surounded my archer couldn't attack so I used my Valkerye (or something, atleast my promoted Troubadour) to kill one of the units and let my bowman escape. Well next turn a Peg Knight came attacking my archer with a Javelin. I thought "She's never gonna hit me, and I will kill her when she misses." Well no. The Peg Knight killed my best archer with only 38% change of hitting me. XD Luckly I saved when my archer was surounded so it really wasn't a big deal.

[Platinum Sun]

I got killed by ooze once in TLA, they just kept dividing! Dam you ooze!

[Sea of Time]

Pretty much everytime I was in a Banshee and my friend was in a Scorpion Tank at Waterworks. I would cut through the barrier onto his side and he would just shoot me out of the air, sending me sailing into the drink. I will get my revenge.

[Zaffa Dot Xom]

Halo.

Wind Dude, me, and Forte were in a 'net challenge.

I think I caught a glimpse of WD over on a hill where he parked his warty, but I didn't bother because I thought Forte was busy with him.

I went up onto the fort and grabbed some weapons before getting into a banshee, when I got sniped.

Took two shots to kill me.

[Izar]

Diablo, when I firsted played, some hacker sent me to hell, close to satan. The succubus(or whatever they are called) killed me off.

I got tore up by my sister's boyfriend on halo.... hehe... He was sniping me, and I had only played a few times.

[Mallick]

Probably when I was teaching Luke how to do a banshee vs banshee fight in Halo, and after I killed him twice he completely annihilated me.

[Laharl]

Soul Calibur 2, had my friend a hit from being perfected, little ******* came back and beat me.

[pHantOm]

I died in Super Smash Bros Melee...to a lvl 9....

I DIED! I had him in like 300 damage too (Downward arial smash attacks)

[Mallick]

Today in Halo.

I was playing on a server with about 7 other people I didn't know in a game of CTF. It was cliff modded by the leader of the server, and I was kicking royal buttocks. :B

It was kind of laggy so I'd shoot people in the head, and then they'd die a second or five later, and when I did it to multiple people while the first one was still alive, they'd all die at once and I'd be given a combo such as "Double kill!", and I ended up shooting all four people on the other team in the head.. and I fell off the cliff. XD

[Golden Legacy]

This is by far one of the most hilarious gaming deaths I've ever seen. :lol:

Link (note: SPOILER ALERT for SUPER SMASH BROS. BRAWL)

[Gio]

Super Smash Bros. Melee.

I lost track of my character while talking with a friend and ended up walking straight off the edge of the map.

[Moonear]

In 007 Nightfire I used one of the Guided missiles (I think they're called sentinels) and I accidentally guided it back to myself and I died.

[Caael]

I managed to kill myself with the sniper in halo 3. Dont ask how it just happened.

[Drizzy Drake]

I died against a lvl ONE Jigglypuff in SSBM. Me and my friend were playing a Vs. match where each of us had a lvl 1 as a teammate. Well me and my friend both had around 300% damage, and I killed him. Well right as I kill him, Jigglypuff comes and Rollout's me, and I die.

[Caael]

I was crouching in crackdown, aiming a rocket at somebody. I aimed too low and it hit the roof I was standing on and killed me.

That actually takes some real skill.

[ZephyrAnalea]

Halo: I throw a trip mine in the middle of Sandtrap then get into the gunner seat of a Warthog. A second later, my driver runs right over the mine I just threw, killing everyone in the vehicle. Jerkwad.

[Split Infinity]

I was playing Episode One, crawling through a vent to find the power switch for a door, and at the end of the vent I saw a tripwire laser extending in front of me. I decided to throw a grenade at it to blow it up and allow me to safely crawl out of the vent. What I didn't realise was that the vent extended into a room filled with more tripwires and explosive barrels. I was dead within two seconds. :lol:

I was really confused.

BANG

" Suiciiidee"


Crackdown is full of stupid deaths. I'm on top of a building, the bad guys are below me, I throw a grenade downwards to try and hit them, but it hits the top of the building. I get blown off the edge of the building open to fire. I've died many times that way.

[Laharl]

playing Soul Calibur III with a friend, he unplugged my controller and threw it across the room, needless to say i died D:

[Caael]

Lol what a twat.

[Nosferatu]

It wasn't me, but me and a friend were playing Marvel Ultimate Alliance. He accidently fell off a cliff with the Hulk, Luke Cage and Spider-girl.

[PDM]

Any time I've died to Split in Halo PC.

[Caael]

Not exactly a death, but brought me close to it. In Bioshock, I kept running past a security camera sending bots after me, and I could not find where the damn thing was, I was looking everywhere. It was behind me.

[Someone Else]

Metal Gear Solid 3. The enemy saw me, I tried to press X to go Prone, but instead I did a roll and fell off a cliff. =/

[Moonear]

Goldeneye 007. I put a plastique (this bomb that explodes the whole level after 6 minutes) on to a wall, and then I acccidentally shot it. I tried to outrun the explosion, but I died.

[Caael]

I dont remember that...

Wait, are you on about the Bunker level?

[Moonear]

It was the Silo level, with the satellite.

[Caael]

I dont remember the game much. I knew it was a grey-white looking level, but I didnt know which one <_<

[Caael]

I think it was quite embarassing for me when I kept getting hit by the train in ' Highway 17' in HL2. I totally forgot the buggy could boost >_>

[Split Infinity]

You could always just reverse and wait for it to pass, but that's no fun. =P

This didn't actually happen to me, but anyway; I was doing another playthrough of Splinter Cell, and I was nearly at the end of the Kalinatek mission, at the construction area on top of the building. There were some guards talking among themselves, so I went forward and climbed up over some boxes to get around them. Except they must have heard me, because they suddenly went on alert. So I crept over to the edge and saw them all looking up at me. But instead of shooting at me, one of them tried to throw a grenade, except I was too high, so it just bounced off the wall and blew them to pieces. XD

[Caael]

In the same way as split, this was an enemy who killed himself in a stupid way.

All that happened was a Zombine got out a grenade and usually he'd run towards me and blow us both up, but no, he got it out and stood there for 4 seconds until it blew up :P

[Fritzy]

What do you expect from a zombie. An embaressing death I had recently was in COD4. I had to go to the bathroom, so I paused the game. The thing is, whilst playing online, pausing it doesn't really do anything, so when I came back, the person I was playing had 10 more kills than he had when I went to the bathroom.

[Caael]

Jumping down the same hole several times trying to reach a ledge that didn't have anything on and couldn't get out of. Waste of 20 minutes.

[Folcon]

not so much me, but I was playing Lego Star Wars, and my computer controlled partner fell off a ledge, and kept respawning right at the edge and falling off to his death, over and over agian. Stupid AIs.

[Caael]

Dont you hate it when you're being shot and for the life of you, you cannot work out where from? I hate snipers...

[Folcon]

That's why I don't play Halo with my friends anymore. They like to play snipers... and I just phail at Halo.

[Caael]

I'm relatively good at sniping myself, but I much prefer other weapons. I'm crap at avoiding snipers though.

[Split Infinity]

It's easier up close because you can just predict their shots and strafe sideways, but when it's long-range you don't know which way to run.

[Caael]

There's ways to avoid it, I just dont use them. Like running in zig zags and irregular patterns.

[Someone Else]

I can tell you what NOT to do when you know there's a sniper. DON'T JUMP. And that counts for pretty much any shooter. It seems natural to try to jump when you want to avoid, but trust me, it only makes the sniper able to predict where you're going to land. =/

[Caael]

What, in that half a second gap that you're in the air for? Unless they're very skilled, most snipers wont do that. And wankers in Halo just use auto aim so when the ret goes near the person it auto lines it up with their head.

Now you're getting it. :o

[Lex]

That makes the game so broken... o_O

[TheEnglishman]

I played worms earlier and tried to swing into a gap using a ninja rope. Unfortunately my timing was off and I let go as I swung back, meaning I went in the water.

[Mallick]

I was playing in a pub, 8v8, full of retards. I was AFK for the start of the round, came back the last one alive with one CT dead. Killed 6 CTs with headshots, and then the last one (a noob) knifed me. ):

[Split Infinity]

It's surprisingly easy actually. You don't even have to aim for the head, just hit them in the body twice while they're floating.

[Ironsight]

Yeah, I do it all the time playing multiplayer. It's harder to hit the person if they just run.

[Caael]

DS, what's your gamertag?

Lol I hate it in TF2 on 2Fort when you run in, grab the intel, run all the way to your base to find there's an engineer who's set up in there.

[Ironsight]

Dun have one. I was talking about split-screen multiplayer. I'll see if I can get Xbox Live someday.

[Caael]

Oh :S

You should, it's one of the best investments of my life.

[Toasty]

In brawl, I threw a bumper on the ground and it knocked me off the stage. :/

[Caael]

I forgot that rocket jumping in TF2 hurts you, so guess what happened when I was on 6 health and tried to rocket jump :\

[Folcon]

You also FS'ed yourself off the stage a few times.

[Caael]

So many times have I been knocked into a pit by a companion cube falling on me...

[Mallick]

LOLPWNT.


So I'm playing CZ with an IRL friend, yesh? It's in a public server with about 10 other people. I ace his team on pistol round, I buy an M4 and ace again. Then I get knifed by one of my friends that joined the server. ):


lol2500postsnao

[Caael]

I was on like 3 health in TF2 as a scout so I jumped off the ledge in 2fort and fell to a clumsy, painful death.

[Caael]

Bump, grenade tagged somebody in Gears online only for them to run towards me and blow us both up ;)

[Split Infinity]

Not really a death, but I was playing Gran Turismo and was in 1st place by an epic amount, and just as I passed the finish line to start the final lap, my car clipped an exposed section of the wall and crashed to a stop. By the time I recovered there was no way I could win. ;)

This was on Midfield in case you're wondering.

[Ironsight]

I got killed by Wesley on Halo 3. Now THAT was embarrasing. ******* B button...

[Caael]

Dont you hate it when you jump to avoid a gravity hammer swing and end up getting knocked off the stage from the blast?

[Drizzy Drake]

The gravity hammer is that big ****ing hammer right? I pwnd with that.

[Ironsight]

I used the hammer on a charging warthog on Valhalla. It went off that cliff above the river in the center of the map, flew through the air for a good 50 feet (while flipping iver and over) and landed right in front of the base, killing the Ninjanaught.

It was awethome.

[Folcon]

I forget the game I was playing, but I came to an area that said, DO NOT ENTER, but I did. And got vaporised but five hundred enimies. The scene ended with one walking up and pissing on my ashs then laughing and giving the screen the finger.

I HATE Vahalla. It's like Halo 3's version of Blood Gulch and Coagulation except way worse. The only time I like playing on Valhalla is when it's Shotty/Snipes.

Snowbound is cool on team duals. But sometimes it's Snowbound, and sometimes it's HC Snowbound. What's the difference?

The only huge beef I have with Halo 3 is that online you don't get to choose the match type and **** like that, it's all random.

It's better than having lobbies, trust me.

[Split Infinity]

It worked in Halo 1. :/

[Caael]

The worst thing about TF2 is the lobbies, because you're always relying on somebody else's connection and it's usually crap. Matchmaking is a lot better, trust me.

[Split Infinity]

How's that work?

[Caael]

Like a lobby? You choose map, number of players and time limit, open it for people to join and then start. The only redeeming feature about lobbies is that you can boot people you dont like.

[Drizzy Drake]

You can boot in Halo 3, it just involves them killing you twice(or is it three times?).

[Split Infinity]

No stupid, how does matchmaking work?

[Caael]

That's called betrayal booting skidz, i was talking about booting if they're crap :wacko:

Matchmaking in halo is basically where you select a gametype ( Slayer, objective, infection) and it will pair you with random people who are searching for the same type of game as you, and have similar skill to you. It works.

[Split Infinity]

I've heard people abuse the skill system though. Like killing teammates and jumping off cliffs.

[Drizzy Drake]

You can easily boot crap people. Me and TJ did that SOOO much last weekend. You jsut keep shooting them, but stop every now and then to let them heal, and eventually, they WILL attack back, and kill you. Do it again, then boot them.

And ya, it does work preatty well, but I still miss being able to do online SMG, no shields matches.

[Caael]

Having no regenerating shields in Halo is like having no swords in Zelda.

Speaking of embarassing deaths for Tom, we were playing forge and I went somewhere ( think I went to watch TV) but I left the game running, so I came back and found out that he'd betrayed me literally hundreds of times. So I killed him, and it took him 300 seconds to respawn. 6 minutes. Why's that embarassing? Because I was teabagging his corpse the whole time.

[Split Infinity]

Yeah, what's the point in continuing to play with 1HP left? With shields, you'll be rewarded for escaping a conflict and be able to jump right back into the game, although slightly weaker.

IT makes the games more fast paced, and basically you need to be quick on your feet to stay alive. Not that I'd play no shields all the time, but Snowbound would be awesome with no shields.

[Caael]

Some games are better off without regenerating health; TF2 for example. If you dont have regenerating health however, you have to have a hell of a lot more health to make up for it. Games with regenerating health are good as they are, and games without are good as they are. I dont know any games that would be better off/worse with the opposite health it already has.

Quote

Snowbound would be awesome with no shields.

LIES, n00bs would just grenade spam the whole time.

[Split Infinity]

Uh, Caael? 300 seconds isn't 6 minutes.

[Caael]

You're right, it's 5. My bad.

[Split Infinity]

That's a pretty long wait though. What affects spawn time, anyway?

[Caael]

Betrayals, we were on the same team otherwise we cant talk to each other. When you betray somebody, it doubles the previous respawn time. The usual is 3, so when you betray somebody once, it takes 6. When you betray them again, it takes 12 and so on.

[Split Infinity]

Awesome, I've got to try that sometime. XD

[Caael]

It's also quite embarassing when you burn Tom to death, and teabag his flaming corpse only to be killed by your own flames. That's happened too many times now...

[Split Infinity]

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire...

[Caael]

Rofl, it's also pretty frustrating in infection games when you set a zombie on fire but their flaming corpse flies into you, setting you on fire as well making you die. You dont get infected, but you respawn in somewhere probably not very safe.

[Someone Else]

Played All-Star mode in Brawl. I was on the Pirate Ship stage vs. Zelda characters. I picked up a Hammer. But then then the hammerhead fell off... then I got hit by the catapult and was launched into the water. And well, you probably know what happened... you can't jump in the air with the hammer. =(

Oh, the irony that I was Toon Link at the time.

[Legolastom]

Caael it was actually 350 seconds, and the respawn timer doesnt double every time you kill someone, it just gets higher and higher.

And Caael as for another of your deaths, I have two words: Double wall.

[TheEnglishman]

I died in a section on Resident Evil 4 where the ceiling tries to crush you in a Indiana Jonesesque way. It took me ages to realise I had to shoot the red blinking lights to stop it.

Well it seems like it doubles. I've never really tested it.

Double walls are my mortal enemy :wacko: Or rather, Tom wielding a double wall is my mortal enemy. Damn forge... :blink:

[Legolastom]

Trust me if it doubled I would have got a lot longer than 350 seconds.Maybe... 35000 seconds.

[Caael]

Yeah actually :o
