Funny, Embarrassing, and General OMG Moments

So I'm sure we all remember our first days playing...
Well this is my third attempt at medic. Ever. With a span of several months separating it from other attempts.

To roughly quote someone after asked about medic in OOC before my first attempt, " Medic is basically for people who like stress, panic, and tough decisions."



On another note...




Just another day in Colonial Marines.

10/10 Would let Feweh escape on the normandy and assault my PO's again.

I remember one of the first few times I went as medic I analyzed a dead body thinking it was myself. It said the body had 200+ damage and I heard you can emergency amputate to remove damage so I cut off my own arm.... Im glad im not bald anymore.

Early game: Alpha Specialist throws themselves down disposals then after getting healed, goes SSD in the basketball court after losing their B18 gear somewhere. Latejoin spec never got their gear back.

Pre-fog: Normandy comes down to pick up a dead alien that the survivors had killed at the riverside bar, squashes the Scout Specialist who was out ramdo-ing by themselves.

Fog lifts, early engagements: RPG specialist floored by a ravager and decapitated before firing even a single shot.

Round ends with 40 xenos sieging the CIC and that is after three fatties are dropped on them during the FOB assaults. Marines and the Xenos had a nice back and forth that round, though, even if it was doomed from the start.

Firing line of survivors destroys any xenos that enter.

I think the real highlight of that round was the basketball game. Me and Nai were a dream basketball team. I forgot to take screenshots though

I imagine things were pretty quiet and not much else happened?

Pretty much, until zombies showed up towards the end. But the server crashed before everyone waiting in the Almayer could fight the zombies.

You couldn't be more wrong

As one of the colony cops dealing with this bunch of Shortbus rejects was hell

[Trench007]

The Freelancers just wanted some easy money...

then again being cops/sec is hell regardless.

"Yeah I smoke. Why do you ask?"

My interpretation:
XO - "CE I need you to clean my cig butts.
*someone manages to harm intent themselves with an object
CE - "Oh don't mind me"

[x31stOverlord]

Painful thing about this, lowpop.

Bill Carson kept sending the marines back down on DS2

So there was a OOC issue with the WO trying to start a mutiny....Commander Mueller solved it IC.

Backstory:
He summoned three MPs to his office. Told us the situation and, us having seen some suspicious WO activity, we agreed with the order to arrest the WO.
Then the WO piped up and ordered all MPs to his office. Two of us went down and talked with him. He asked what our talk with the CO was. We lied to him. Just as he dismissed us, I piped up and the following conversation went like this,
"Sir, there was one thing." - MP 1
"Oh" -WO
*cue sound from WO of belt being opened for weapon and me subtly taking out my pepper spray from my pocket*
"Yes, the CO has ordered your arrest. Get on the ground" - MP 1
"What? For what?"- WO
MP 2 whisper to MP 1 "Is this the moment?"
"Get on the ground sir. You are under arrest for mutiny" - MP 1
WO says something else like how it is against Marine Law and does not lay down on the ground. *Non-Compliance* MP 1 steps forward and pepper sprays the WO. Cue series of expletives and angry dialogue from WO.
MP 1 removes WO of all gear except uniform.

The talk with the CO as to the WO's punishment below. Mutiny is a offense warranting Perma/execution. As a result of HC knowledge, MP support and self incrimination/admission the WO is sentenced to execution by the Commander. From here the rest goes as you'd expect. Announcement. Execution.


The execution


The WO's final words were on general comms about how the execution was unjust. The whole on general comms things was due to not having taken his radio because well... no abuse/rookie mistake.
His last request was lethal injection. The Commander denied. Execution was carried out with pistols. It should be noted the third MP refused to join in. Commander allowed this.
The WO also refused the offered privilege of Last Cig

marine law states that they may have a radio for their final words regardless of abuse, so proper procedure was followed. anyways fun read! wish I was there.

As a UPP Commando during one of the 'Secret' events, my objective was simple, survive, make sure you're not ded, have a peace-treaty with the muhreens and if it fails, kill the CMP.

When in fact, I was killed only by a single Young/Mature hunter. 1v1.


Kids, remember that CM is a teamgame bois.

[Dumblike]

Hey, I was Victoria Oak this round you did great as RO, too sad we died instantly when aliens crashed.

With gen coms remove, squad cohesion is more important than ever. A group up after drop is a good start.
