sounds better than telling them to wait for space before test firing... which is what i usually say.

must give up awesome and pilot an atlas to be awesome.

I've had this happen too, when you play fullscreen (but in windowed mode) and have a browser open reading the forums while waiting for the matchmaker when it's having a slow day. You see the boot up animation, and alt-tab back.... and when you switch focus to the game, it decides what you really wanted to do was alpha the mech in front of you. See, TAB is my alpha-strike key.

It's an easy mistake to make =/

I once accidentally the whole back of a Jenner. It was decidedly less awesome though.

Nice one guys. And great to see it became a comic.

It would be nice if the Atlas pilot would show up here and take his accolades with the same good humour that he took that hit in the back. :lol:

I had something similar happen a few hours ago. By rights, I would have been PO'ed, but instead, he took it laughing.

Friendly Spider chasing enemy Spider. I have a decent shot... I cut loose 3 SRM 6's. Enemy spider veers off at the last second, and friendly spider takes every last SRM to the face. Dies instantly. I killed him purely by accident; I'd have been quite upset if it were me. The chat that followed:

ME: Oh sh*t...
HIM: lolz
ME: I swear, I was aiming for the other spider
HIM: Wrong spider
ME: I'm sorry, dude...
HIM: roflmao

I expected beratement and rage. It's probably what I'd have done. But no, I get good sportsmanship and a sense of humor. More people need to learn from this example, myself included, instead of flaming up the chatbox every time a friendly bumps their leg and turns its armor yellow.
