yep happend to me 2 times.

Another way to get a kill up to several seconds after you die is to call an air/artillery strike just before you're killed. I've got a kill well after I died like this, although I don't think I killed to guy who killed me.

[Axeface]

Yes OP, i've had it happen like 3 times. Always leads to some lol's in chat.

[Napoleon_Blownapart]

did it once with a hail mary arti strike.

[bad arcade kitty]

i killed an enemy and blew up myself the next half a second a few times, usually when i set overdrive intentionally since i was surrounded by their friends, at least once it happened without overdrive

also had it so enemy killed me and then blew themselves too


i think at least one time we killed both each other... dunno honestly

I've had two simultaneous kills; one was a boring one, my PPC got him, his gauss got me.

The other, well, it might be the funniest thing that's ever happened to me in a MechWarrior game. We killed each other with collision damage; we staggered around a corner into one another and both died without firing, and got kill credit on each other.

[C E Dwyer]

yes they can, see it a lot, both fire at distance usually the shots pass and both die, though I have seen a double kill from colliding and both mechs must of had crits to internal ct that zapped them both

[XxXAbsolutZeroXxX]

Aye. Died from a dual gauss hit. My LRM barrage hit the person who finished me, landed the finishing blow.

[deadmedo]

It happened only 1 time to me, I killed him with my srms, he killed me with his ac20

[WatDo]

I've had it happen personally a few times. In my experience, it always happens with beam weapons. It's pretty funny when it happens too. Haven't had it end a match in a tie yet, i keep hoping it will one day.

[Soy]

yes

Projectiles take time to travel, so yes, absolutely possible. If you're still not sure, try taking a physics class.

cmon man, that aint necessary. Ive played games where your projectiles stop doing damage after you die, and just hit for no effect.

But to the OP: yeah, it happens a lot actually. Ive even done it with lasers. IDK how that works.

[DONTOR]

Yep SRMs move pretty slow, enemy lasered my CT after i shot a load, i died then the SRMs hit and killed him. Its pretty uncommon though.

[TercieI]

It's happened to me twice in my MWO career. The first time, I was in a duel in my SHD with a DRG around a small hill "behind" the big hill on Alpine. We sortof got separated from the main melee trying to kill each other and...did. Still a memory that brings a smile to my face.

[Hit the Deck]

I saw it happened on this vid:

[SgtMagor]

yes I can remember an instance of a simultaneous kill.

[LordNothing]

was in an srm dual once. our missiles passed eachother, said how do you do, and killed us both.

i think i also had it happen in a ppc vs ac dual. it can anywhere where you have a well aimed projectile in flight when someone dies, and that projectile then strikes a killing blow in the other. with hitscan weapons both players pretty much have to kill the other in the same frame which makes those really rare, but still possible.

[JediPanther]

you can indeed dual kill at the end of the game as well from my own recording of it:



Just like getting a tie game with the same score at the end of a time out in skirmish mode. Rare but it does happen.

[Cupid and Psyche _]

Yep! Although, it is a really rare event. I've had it happen to me on River City once when using an autocannon.

[CycKath]

Suicide artillery drop, always a laugh.
