Tell us about your most satisfying kills, your most amazing shots, your tales of teamwork, and your stories of jaw dropping idiocy.

Me? Well, just the other day I was on Sharqi as US, and spawned as Engineer. I sprinted to the tank choke point and threw a mine into the road. A tank saw me, and shot me. He then proceeded to drive other said mine.

GRRRRRRRRRRREAT!

Now you go.
 
Anyone in [clan] will remember this: Zatar Wetlands - Clan match

Gunner in the Blackhawk, patrolling our points. My pilot noticed an MEC soldier falling to our point, and his ENTIRE TEAM SPAWNED ON HIM.

Needless to say, that was quite a massacre, especially since this the 1.12 .50cal gun on the Blackhawk. Must have racked up 12 kills in less than five seconds.
 
Going 9:1 in 10 seconds on Karkand... Spawned as Spec right next to a full APC and a tank... C4'd em both...

I just had one of the best sniping rounds of my BF2 career. The round was Oman and I was on the US. In order to understand this story completely you need to know what I'd been doing the round before. One of my favorite things to do as a sniper is to camp airfields and shoot the plane whores before they get into their precious jet. This is what I had been doing, with a good deal of success for the entire first round. I think I ended up with something like 19 kills/0 deaths. I should mention I ususally do this from atop the oil tower in the MEC airfield. At the very end of the round, two guys on their team found my hide and attempted to shoot me from the ground. Needless to say...they were unsuccessful.

At the start of the second round I made my way back to my favorite spot. I notice three guys are standing, waiting for the bomber. One guy TK's the other so he can't get it when the plane spawns. This is exactly why I started sniping in the first place. Immediately after he shoots his teammate, I line up and fire one shot right into his head. (I've been known to type in "BOOM headshot" whenever I take an asshole like that out with one round.) The third MEC is looking right at him when I shoot, and by the time I chamber another round he's bunny hopping like crazy, sprinting, stoping, zig-zaging, bunny hopping some more...you get the idea. He jumps into a jeep and takes off. About two minutes later I see the jeep comming back loaded with guys. I throw a claymore down, jump/parachute out and fall back to the little hill by the two buildings where the attack helo spawns on the 64 round map. Shortly after I go prone in the bushes, all three guys dismount, now accompanied by four others I had apparently pissed off the round before, and were circling around the oil tower like a pack of lions looking for an easy kill. Little did they know, I was the one who would be doing the hunting.

I really wish I had taken a screenshot but I just didn't think of it at the time. Imagine seven guys standing around the oil tower looking up throwing grenades trying to blow whatever claymores I might have laid. After they all throw their nades, one guy starts going up to try and find me. As soon as he gets on the ladder, I loose one round and put him back down. The other six are looking up, thinking I shot him, somehow, from the top which is where they still think I am. I shoot three more times, droping three more of them before they realize what's going on. The three that are left at this point decided that the best way to flush me out was to shoot wildly and hop away.

Two minutes later I sprinted across the runway to the left side of the airfield and proceded to harass, confound and confuse the MEC for the remainder of the round.

****ing pwnt.

Karkand, trying to get my Explsives Ordinance badge by just spamming Claymores. I'm MEC.

I sprint from Square to the South by hotel, and run into an alleyway full of USMC soldiers. It's an entire squad of like, 6 of them. I start bouncing around like crazy, drop a claymore, and bounce of behind a crate (mind you, they're all on the other side of this crate). I drop another claymore.

And I bounce off into the sunset, only to be shot by a lone PKM whore who survived the blast, only to step right infront of another one of my claymores.

As support, repeatedly shooting an unconsious soldier and the medic trying to revive him. Seriously, this medic must have tried 6 times, only to have me tear him and the other soldier up.
 
OMFG, how could I forget.

Karkand, same round as the other where I whored up the Claymores (two posts up).

I see a medic go to revive this guy I just claymored (seriously, this medic must have been desperate, I was maybe 20 feet away, watching). He dives in, and revives the guy while i'm trying to line my scope up with them.

Bingo. Pull the trigger. Two kills, one bullet. I thought that was pretty amazing.

M95 btw.

Another, the round before, same server. I'm USMC.

I see some guy down by one of those tin fences so that the tip of his head is the only thing sticking out, and he's trying to snipe us. I pull a shot and dont see the little X, but I do see this big spark off the tin fence. I think, "damn, missed".

Look up at the corner of my screen.

Thought that was pretty cool. Headshot through the metal fence.
 
Greatest kill that I've ever gotten was in BF1942...This jerk in a t-34 was spawn killing us, so we were all chilling in a barn (if we went outside, we'd get owned). So i'm like, forget this, I run outside, get owned. I came back as an engineer, then proceeded to run around the perimeter of the base, in the trees up to the tank. I throw an explosive pack on the tank, which makes a metalic clang sound. The tank drives forward and owns me. So, not being discouraged, I repeat the whole thing. But before I throw the xp. pack on the tank, I put mines in front (he's in first person, so he didn't see me). Thats when I threw the ex. pack on the tank. He drives forward and BAM! And there behold my most satisfying kill. edit: Yes, I know this is the BF2 forum. Bf 1942 is close enough.
 
My best kill (well... a double kill) is on a Kubra map and I'm chilling flying solo on my trusty heli. My teammate pilots decides that enemy jet's should roam the map freely, which results in them hunting my for my head since I kept raping their armored tanks / apc / mobile AA. This one specific guy, made 3 passes, blowing away all his missiles and yet he has only managed to dink me for a few bars of health. I normally don't mind pilots that are trying to kill me (only natural), but this arrogant bastard is the type that flies 2 mph and coming real close to smashing into me the last two tries. I naturally get pissed and I realize how slow he was flying as he lined me up. On his 4th pass on me... I line my heli head-on with the jet, he turns at a snails pace as expected and I unload a TV missile straight into his cockpit, blowing him and the co-pilot straight to hell.

The bastard never came after me for the rest of the round :E

My best shot... I used an AT rocket and hit a guy about 250-300m away while he was running towards a hill. I was on top of the TV station on Sharqi and he was by hotel, I had to arc my missile shot downwards at the end and I pretty much hit him with a good bit of luck. He never saw that coming :D

Stories of idiocy... way too many to tell. Anytime I fly a heli with average pubs pretty much results in complete and utter idiocy. My best 'punishment' I did for my retarded gunner (take into account I told the guy repetedly to right-click TV missile... he wouldn't listen) was on a full 64 Wake Server, I decided I had enough of this idiot and I fly my heli straight to the USMC carrier. They at this point hadn't taken a single flag and we were dominating, the AA on the carrier notices me but I fly low and away from the main AA. I end up going directly underneath it and parking the attack heli right in the 'platform' where the boats spawn. The enemy attack chopper notices and comes down to blow us up, I thought it was utterly hilarious and my gunner was completely stunned XD

I remember that :P
 
Mashtuur, my new favorite shot.

I'm working on my basic pistol badge. I spawn at Hotel, and start shooting at US soldiers as they gather by Mosque. They're only specs, and I only hit them once or twice, but boy is it fun to shoot at little ants with a pea shooter. Feels even more satisfying when you realise that the MEC pistol doesn't put its shots in its targetting reticule (it's actually way way WAY up).

I see a whole platoon of soldiers parachute out of a blackhawk behind me and stand up. Suddenly this tiny grey spec starts standing around by the entrance. I take at this faint grey spec with my pistol, and I killed him.

:D
 
Sharqi Peninsula. I was at the far left side of the map with the M95, sniping down the long road (in the direction of the flag near the water). Suddenly, I see an enemy attack chopper, hovering directly in my line of sight. I aim at the cockpit, where I think the pilot is... BOOM. Nailed him in the head, first try. From like 200 meters away.

Now here's where it gets good:

what I hadn't noticed, however, was that there was also an enemy tank RIGHT below the chopper. And you know how, when you take out a pilot, the chopper just sinks like a stone? Yeah.

I TOOK OUT A CHOPPER AND A TANK WITH A SINGLE BULLET.

you remember the day you, shaker and myself were playing on 64 karkand, we followed shaker to a rooftop overlooking the MEC's furthest East flag, you were Spec Ops, you jumped off the roof, dropped c 4 on an apc below, blew it while you were literaly landing on top of it, that was just, well just WIN!,<3

D:

Why are you running around with a pistol to get that badge? The easiest way (at least for me) was go with a bolt-sniper and hit a body shot then immediately whip out the pistol. I got the basic badge on accident really, since I've made a habit of doing that regardless. That is, if I miss the head...
 
sinko you need to post some of your draumatizing stories that you tell me about... seems like everyone is out to get you in bf2
 
i was on the battleship in wake island, waiting for the chopper to spawn with about 10 other people (we didn't have a flag yet). When this jet came down and flew into all of us, killing everybody. It was like bowling. I was one of the guys killed, but it was so memorable.

It's TRUE D:

I'll be running allong, when I look at my score, and suddenly where I had a 2 in my Kit Points spot, I have a -2. ZOMG WTF BBQ?

I'll throw a grenade, when some prick runs infront of it. Guess which key he presses right after?

I've had tank drivers drive over me while I was standing in the middle of the street. These are FRIENDLY tank drivers now.

I've had friendlies lie infront of my claymores. A baddie triggers the claymore, they both go down, I get punished.

I've had Helo Gunners use the Chain gun on tanks, then I start arguing with them about the TV missiles, when suddenly, in the middle of the argument, they say they actually shot a TV missile and missed. Yeah, bullshit buddy.

I've had friendlies SPRINT accross the street because they thought they could make it before my Jeep. Car VS Human. Guess who wins? Me. Then I lose cause I get punished.

I had a round start, then the server kicked me for swearing maybe 5 tickets into the game, where I clearly hadn't been talking at all.

Pilots who squish me when they try to let me into the helo (I have no idea what's going on btw. I'll be lying down, when suddenly a huge ass flying whale lands on me, and I hear some prick go "sorry chief").

The list goes mother****ing on.

But here's some good news, my best KILL yet :D

Was playing Mashtuur, and somehow I ended up with 5 pistol kills. Suddenly, I feel like going for my Vet pistol, and start shooting the place up. I outsniped a few snipers with the 92fs, took out an entire squad with it, was doing some snipping from ontop some buildings with it, it was only natural that I felt like getting the Vet pistol.

So there's maybe 5 tickets left, and i'm scrambling for those last 2 kills. I'm comming from Mosque, trying to spring to backyard (where all the action is at), and I see a smoking jeep comming right at me and my squad, I run behind a tree so he can't smash me, and start unloading my pistol into it. 5 rounds into my clip, I hear the most satisfying explosion of my life, coupled together with the drumroll of BF2 success!
 
Ahhh... the joy's of taking out vehicles with a pistol :)
 
ANOTHER TALE OF IDIOCY FOLKS!

Karkand, the DUMBEST map on the planet! I, MEC, running from Hotel to square allong the backroads. Swing around to the main road and see an MEC soldier lying in a bush, STARING right at a US soldier who is maybe 4 inches infront of him. NOT A SINGLE SHOT COMES OUT OF THIS MAN FOLKS! No, he is not AFK, as I see him spin around right after somebody kills the us soldier.

I sprint to the other end of the road to revive a comrade, and I see an MEC soldier running to Square. A foot behind him is a US soldier, ALSO running to square. Again folks, NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THESE MEN MAKES AN ATTEMPT TO KILL THE OTHER!

AND NOW A STORY OF ASSHOLES!

I'm piloting my PLA tank all the way to the other end of the map, when a car full of friendlies starts ramming up the back of my tank. Of course, I have NO idea about this, till I hear a big KABOOM and see the name "sinkoman" followed by the word "teamkills" filling the top right corner of the screen.

Thankfully folks, only one of the 3 people that teamkilled themselves via me, punished.

HUZZAH FOR BF2! HUZZAH FOR THE DUMBEST ****ING GAME ON THE PLANET!
 
Diving under enemy tanks and jeeps. Now my offical hobby on BF2. It's fantastic. They come screaming towards you and instead of running for your life, you sprint toward them, slam the prone key let them roll straight over the top of you (remember kids, aim for the middle of the Tank or it may go horribly wrong!), spin round, pop up and blast them straight up the rear with an AT rocket, or if, for some reason, I think I feel daring, stick a brick of C4 to the underside and blow them sky high. For best results perform on Shiqari peninsula just as the MEC T-90 is steaming up the ramp toward the TV station.
 
On one map there is a flag fully protected by a tin fence and I saw the flag going down. Having just seen the shoot PKM through tin fence clip and having a PKM on me I lay down and began to make swiss cheese out of the fence. Little to say 4 people on the other side got to meet the reaper.

I wish I could still Dolphin Dive for those knife badges... oh well, flashbangs and being a sneaky ninja will have to do :D

I just had one of my best moments in Solo Heli flying, I managed to shoot down 2 oncoming fighter jet's as they were trying to kill me :D I think Xombine also shot down an enemy jet too as a gunner with a friend of mine.

w00t!

Yes indeed. So that's who augiep1 is, I always noticed how he joined the HL2 squad. The one I shot down, the guy was flying straight for us. If I hadn't shot him he would have taken us down with him. :laugh:
 
Was playing with Augie and AiM the other day, and I brought the PLA tank into the only US point. Needless to say, they all went crazy, and unfortunately for them, nobody spawned as AT. So, I drive around like a madman, trying to dodge C4, while i'm just raping the shit out of these guys.

Then everything goes horribly wrong. I got the tank irreversibly wedged between two buildings, and just started shooting at every Specops I saw running up to the tank. Good, the specops are out, now to try to get this bastard out. Well, instead of hiding and waiting for the specops to respawn, the rest of their medic/engineer/assault/support team proceeds to jump ontop of the tank, and play pow wow on the turret.

They all start running around the turret in circles, unloading all the bullets they had into the tank. Of course, this did nothing, except make me laugh like an idiot.

Swing the turret around and just hold down the secondary fire key, and most of them went down. Till the tank got hit by a C4 :/

:D
 
I just recently got the demo and I'm really new at this. Most of the time I have no idea what I'm doing...but the first time I joined a game I picked the engineer and repaired a radar, and then went out into the hills by the MEC airfield and I saw this guy in a prone position.
He didn't notice me so circled around behind him and when I got close I pulled out my knife and stabbed him. :D He turned around right as my blade was falling. It was awesome! :naughty:
 
Tonight. That was amazing. After we all got together on 256 for some fun then some of you guys left, it was me and Sinko in a squad. Dude, that was total awesomeness. Especially that 2nd round on Songhua, early on I thought we were done for but we managed to come back. I gotta get a microphone cause it's a pain to type everything when you ask me something. Then...Wake...that was different. Total rapage of us on the carrier. I got thrown overboard by an explosion and landed in the water, holding my healthpack. I was still alive so i decided to swim all the way to land. Took me forever but I finally got there, then took that flag. My team was full of moron Private noobs so they didn't spawn on it. Then I made my way up to the airfield and started picking guys off for the hell of it, seeing as how it was over anyway. I take out 2 guys and then get knifed by Nightshade. :laugh: Speaking of that, the other time you knifed me Nightshade was because I was telling Sinko that I was sorry for tking him. I knew that you saw me in your APC and figured that you'd jump out to come and get me so I just readied myself. All of a sudden Sinko spawns in on me, right in my face, and I was all jumpy so I blasted him in the face. :laugh: I'm like "soz soz" and then bam you come knife me. All in all, tonight was kick ass.
 
Yeah, in case you guys haven't caught on yet, knifing is my specialty. I'm the KNIFEMASTER.
 
Yeah, tonight was crazy.
I had to leave near the end of the first round unfortunately, but came back last round of Songhua.
