Someone backed their rear CT right into my crosshair as I unloaded all my weapon systems (even my SSRMs hit him!)

I feel bad.

Gratz?..

Murderer!

Lol, yeah.Back in the day of 6ppc boating, I accidentally hit one of my brawlers in the head with all 6 shots. It didn't end well.

Yesterday was a bad day.

It happens to everyone sooner or later. A crazy fast light runs in front of you. A brawler face hugs your target. You see the red triangle but not the blue one.

Just type, "Sorry" and move on. If they rant in chat, don't worry about it. Even the best pilots do it sometimes.

Another in a long line of firsts checked off... wtfg! You MUST try skiing down the side of Armpit in Alpine before they change movement! Frickin awesome! If you can shoot Streaks into the face of an Atlas as you whoosh by you get bonus points from the Kurita Judge.

My favorite first is the first time you knock someone over...

...It'll be a long time before most of the MWO players currently here can even enjoy that one.

I'm going to transfer this traitorous swill to the barracks so you can all learn from this experience... for Shame! Accidents and mishaps are not permissible 'round here

Yes, two things I'd like to see improved on the interface. 1) move the minimap to the upper-left corner so that one can actually aim down with unlocked arms. 2) Have a second minimap, zoomed in enough to show a 100m radius accurately, so I can see if a light is about to run in front of me or if I'm about to move into a teammate's LoF. I think I don't need the full weapongroup widget displayed all the time. Just listing the weapons/ammo would be good enough, unless I'm actually modifying the groups.

@Prosperity Park: then I guess I shouldn't mention I've been penalized twice for colliding with a teammate, resulting in the teammates' deaths. For one of them, I was in an Atlas that had no weapons left.

A while back, I accidentally popped a friendly Cicada with a pair of AC20s. Had the shot lined up, pulled the trigger, and he pops around the corner at flank speed, taking both shells in the CT as he strafes the enemy at point blank range.... It happens...

[IraqiWalker]

Helsbane made me just burst into laughter. Welcome to the club mate.

My first team kill was actually a week ago now. I was using the trial Atlas and I alpha strike-d my comrade right in the cockpit.

Worst time I was teamkilled was when I was using my commando running at full speed and my friend's Heavy metal stepped in front of me. I think I got stuck inside his mech or something because both of my legs went from okay to destroyed within 5 grueling seconds.

When you teamkill someone just say "sorry" and keep going. When you get teamkilled you have a 50% chance of raging. Just remember that this is war and accidents happen.

The funniest TK I've ever been part of didn't even involve shooting. Ran around a corner with my Raven in River City and collided with a cored out Commando from my team. That pointy beak was the last thing that poor guy ever saw.....

lol i remember a whole lot of traffic jams and warping standing mechs from those days. To be honest i am not sure i miss that mechanic, it was starting to feel like Run into stuff online

[Koniving]

It was prone to some abuse, namely the Dragon and certain other mechs counting as 100 ton mechs in collisions. However they had already spoke of ways to fix it before discovering all the bugs, and the guys who were to fix it have been busy ever since.

[Deux]

these things happen accidentally, but sometimes its on purpose. my good friend and i were in a match and doing the famous count off from matches about who killed more mechs who did more damage, welllllll in on paticular match we were running close to each other both with 2 kills, we seperated breiefly and i was working over a wounded atlas , just as i was lining up the killing blow, my buddy runs up behind me, shoots my torso blowing it of and causing my weapon arm to crash to the ground, just in time for his second salvo to shoot through where my torso was, giving him the killing shot. soooo somtimes shooting a teammate isnt always an accident......isnt that right Prop.

I know nothing.
