I was playing as a Doctor, Alex 'Tempest' Wick. The survivors had been brought up and were being treated...

Then, Military Police came in and began stunning and flashing the survivors, and even a doctor when he tried to intervene. The survivors still had weapons and reacted in a violent manner, which I considered justified. Now, there's a room full of injured people. This was before the gun nerf, so luckily there weren't any major injuries, just a few shots of bicard and tramadol and everyone was fine... Now the shitty MP and the robust survivors were angry at each other. I did my best to diffuse the situation, and the MP left. I also ahelped for permission to really retaliate against those assholes if they pulled this shit again, and I received the green light to do so.

Sure enough, MP came in with the Commander, who was using these shitheads as his own little crew of men with guns. He wanted the survivors arrested, which, in the hands of these MP, was basically an execution. I told them that the MP started all of this, and he replied with "Ha! No, MP can do no wrong!" and they proceeded to come in, batons ready...

And that's how the entire MP force got sedated and thrown out of medbay by a very angry Doctor Wick. I can't remember if I took their ID's or not, I think I did. Shortly after that I believe the round ended, either due to us being killed by xenos or the last xeno being killed...

My second best moment was also as Doctor Wick. The Sulaco was boarded, the xenos began coming up the ladder through medbay, but luckily because I had spent so much time making shit in Chemistry every doctor had a shit-ton of healing chems. We grabbed everything we could carry and we hauled ass. A Staff Member gave us permission to grab pistols, so we did so. Helmets as well. And we ran to where the marines had made improvised fortifications and immediately began treating the wounded marines. It was actually extremely effective, the xenos couldn't even knock-down a marine without a doctor quickly treating the injury and getting them back on their feet. There were hardly any casualties, if there were any at all. And when a runner tried to drag away a marine that we were trying to heal, we were able to shoot at it and get them back. I'm fairly sure the xenos were exterminated, no doubt partially thanks to the actually surprisingly competent medical staff.

Just got out of cloning, as the aliens invaded, while naked picked a gun up, killed a sentinel, then manage to land a killing blow on the queen with my bare fist.

Surviving a direct hit from an Orbital Barrage... as a Boiler. That is my best. A close second is punching a runner to death while it laid on the ground after a failed pounce.

You know when Runners/Hunters fail a pounce, they sometimes go flat on their face? Me and another survivor were dicking with a Runner, it pounced and went down. We proceeded to punch the damn thing to death, though I had a fireax.

ooooooh that's a hard one.....there's a lot, especially on the old Sulaco. Probably the time on the old map when everybody died and the escape shuttle got shelled by CC and out from the smoking wreckage i limped out....the only human, let alone alien, that survived. That moment solidified my love for the game. After that I kept playing. Those were the days though :3 I don't like the new Sulaco nearly as much. LV-624 is cool but I'm primarily MP and it's just not the same. Cool moments happen every once in a while though c:

Getting chased by a runner until I eventually beat it to death with my crowbar, and limped into the hall, collapsing just as the marines entered. Though The marines did execute me.

Saving 30+ marines and doing 9+ total surgeries in a round. Near the end, we were slowly losing briefing by the tile, and i was right behind a line of sentries performing surgery and stabilizing patients. Eventually, we had to use a dead XO's ID to open the Squad medic doors so we could get additional supplies. But the round was amazing.

After pulling off multiple successful surgeries, the CL got facehugged. When he fell back to the doctor's area, I used the tools to pull the larva out, no anaesthetics. He raged and bitched at me for having broken bones, but I just prevented a larva from bursting during briefing defense. Marines lost the round, but CL prick is a CL prick. Doctors catch all the flak, man.

Well, after a long string of rounds with basically no kills (friendly fire, getting instafacehugged, spit, et cetera...), I soloed a Ravager in one of the prison cells. Lost my leg and barely managed to crawl to safety, but hey, soloed a T3 with an unmodified M41A!

Spawned as a survivor. Planet map. Running around doing my thing, hit up the armory for the M41A and body armor/helmet. Go grab the fire axe, get a little lost, and stumble upon a drone spreading weeds. Marines haven't even landed yet, at this point. So I pull my gun and start blasting away, because screw letting this guy walk around when I need to gather equipment, and manage to gun him down outside science. Few seconds later, what do I hear?

GOD HAS A HARD-ON FOR MARINES.

Get to the landing zone to see the marines just walking off the shuttle, as OOC spasms over the stupid pre-emptive low-pop win. I felt pretty good about it.

when me and @Abbysynth had a 1v1 when I was a Hunter and he was a predator, I evolved mid fight into a Ravager and kicked his ass (lol), and when the marine shuttle was returning to the Sulaco, he barely made it back as he was in near crit.

I played a game of Mao with two other MP's. That was a good round...

Also, more recently, it was me and Officer Xur Dergens, and... another MP, I think Zane. We were so good at MP that round, Central made an announcement about how awesome MP's were, we were given a corgi, which if I remember right we named "Xurry Dogens", telescopic batons, gold, diamonds, golden apples, lots of cool stuff.

... Oh, and any round where I get to arrest Command is fun. When they think they can authorize executions because a marine wouldn't shut up in briefing, that amuses me, because I get to drag their ass to the brig for unauthorized executions.

For me, it happened in the old version of CM. But during a terrorist round where the marines were rescuing hostages from "space-ISIS" I was one of the hostagees. The insurgents convinced me to help them take out the sulaco, and gave me a bomb they made in toxins to put in my backpack and a detonator. After a "staged" breakout where i made it to the marines, I was brought the the bridge to greet the commander. He met me by the LO area. He exteneded his hand to greet me, I leaned in and whispered Aloha Snackbar and detonated the backpage, taking out the commander, 2 LOs, and an MP. Never again did they bring back hostages without nearly strip-searching them.

The time I started a cult and sacrificed one of the marines to the admins/mods.

Which then turned into a mutiny and me becoming Supreme Commander of Sulaco.

Took a 3 day ban because of that one.
