Confession Time

[Dirty Old Harry]

As a Marine or Xeno, describe below the worst time you've ever fucked up. From completely wiping out your squad with AP to charging into three sentries as the Queen.

I'll start off by admitting to the time i spawned as Marine as Standard and heard that if you harm intent and aim for the mouth then you'd shoot yourself, i was a ballsey little cocksucker and didn't believe it so i tried it, saw the message and panic'd and blew my brains out all over the prep room floor. Since that day, i have fully acknowledged that i'm autistic af.

Back in my first few days of playing, I rolled spec and wanted to test everything and so, I took B18 that one time. I ended up OD'ing myself on tramadol because I didn't know that ODs were a thing and I was about to rush the queen.

I miscounted and a grenade exploded in my hand. Then I died to xenos that were presumably laughing at my idiocy.

I have a reddit post about a fuck up I did on SS13 https://www.reddit.com/r/SS13/comments/ ... d_ends_up/

But as marine I guess it was the time i accidentally killed like 3 guys by way of buckshot FF.

As a Xeno I would say my worst fuck up would be as a rav I ran into a group of marines and decided to charge the one wall in an open space next to the 5 marines.

That once happened to me in a hangar defense, mistimed a grenade because I was trying to throw it EXACTLY as the Rasp landed, ended up throwing one of the grenades too early and then I forgot about my other one and it blew up in my hand. Xenos instantly swarmed me and killed me soon after.

I've accidentally restarted the server once or twice.

Dropped a few accidental bombs here and there too.

Good times.

[Joe4444]

Dropped a few bombs on Brazilian greifers here and there too.

Good times.

fixed it for you Feweh

After a long absence even from my lurking I come back to the game and decide to be active, mid round, a spec was wandering the Rasp saying "Regrettably I am handing out grenades to everyone, please use them well" Into a hot drop. I take an incendiary, proceed to activate it, forget to press R for throw and miss the twelve bunched up xenos and set myself on fire.

I was then promptly dragged back by xenos, then dragged by marines, back and forth through flames, and promptly died.

[Dirty Old Harry]

Am i the only one that uses the three default hotkeys?

It automatically switches to throw for you.

I stepped out of my nexus centre fort once to check the north entrance and as soon as I stepped into view of the door a max velocity crusher charge hit me face first. From how quickly it happened it would've just looked like I'd walked into it if anyone was watching, I was instantly decapped and my dead body was dragged off to the other side of the map.

[Boltersam]

Well.

During a last stand in Escape, I accidentally 'naded the Engineer sealing the gap between us and the overrun prep.

The Xenos swarmed through immediately after, and I, like the awesome person I am, save nobody, go to the rightmost pod, and weld myself in.

I escaped, too.

I tried SL once and started things off by accidentally planting c4 when just trying to put it down and blew myself and my squad up making most of us deaf. Then after we fixed power and our hearing came back we went to nexus and got orders to retreat from the planet. The orders came from the PO who got them from the CL, I tried to fight their authority and convince everyone to stay down but ended up chickening out when the other squads boarded the Rasp. I left half my squad behind as CL tried to give us another briefing and wasted all our time.

My second MP round and like my 5th round total I was the only MP on duty and had to cut a deal to have a prisoner teach me how to use the brig and during my attempts to put it into practice he stabbed me in the head and took me to med bay. When a bridge officer brought him back for another crime I let him go as part of our deal.

During a last stand on the bridge I had a grenade and for whatever reason failed to successfully throw it and blew myself and some of our barricades up and no Xenos. Luckily I didn't take any marines with me.

Then maybe I did press R and turned the throw off... huh.. maybe that's why I always feel like my R key in game doesn't work, anyways point is I definitely lit myself on fire.

[Scrat505]

Was playing Spec sniper once with flak rounds loaded. Saw a Crusher across the river on LV, and fired at it, noticing 0.05 seconds later that there was a marine advancing towards the river directly in my line of fire. The shot decapitated him instantly, and seeing as there were his fellow squadmates near him, clearly angry at their friend being killed, I paniced and ran away.

Yeah, one time I dint know that, and I pressed R, so I blew myself into critical hehe

Also, one time as SL I stabbed a marine face trying to take off a hugger

Also, a long time ago, I used to put my doctor ID in my iPad (I can't remember the name). So I blew myself like 6 times with marine mines/sentries while I was going to the ground to make field surgeries

[TheMusician321]

I had the IFF on the smartgun disabled and I fired all 4 shots into a poor marine who was next to a hunter, said hunter then proceeded to tackle slash us both to death.

[TheMaskedMan2]

I once had a gyro shotgun and riot shield as an SL. We were making our way through the hive, I was clearing weeds in those tiny tunnels as we moved, suddenly a marine backs up into my cursor when I clicked a weed and I point blank shot him in the chest.

Woops.

[Crab_Spider]

I once started as a BO and got dressed in full Marine gear... later on, I somehow managed to launch an OB, send a supply drop, and somehow also use the radio. I don't think the Marines got a victory that round...

[Bath Salts Addict]

I once accidentally applied quick-clot twice to the same person. It didn't go well.

When I was new to CM I dropped a perfectly good helmet in favor of a broken one because I thought it looked cooler.

[Crab_Spider]

I once accidentally released an insane colonist from an MP, whom I accidentally killed with a burstfire shot... I told Command what happened and was about to get him on the Pod for his revival, I got killed by the survivor.

Haven't played medic since this.

[Kerek]

Lets see. I have a lot of fuck ups cause I am a macro whore. I accidentally pointblank buckshotted a downed Xur cause i was holding ALT instead of control. So blam blam.

I decided to play SL with my previous character who I abandoned cause I made him knowns as chucklefuck. went to lz2 cause i thought it was lz1 and got slaughtered.

Just minor FF fuck ups from teamates walking in front of me then bitching at me. Accidentally caught myself on fire from using a flamer then lighting a cigarette in the CL's office. The list goes on and on.
