Funny Things that Happened

Just a place to put funny stories that happened during the Beta. By doing so, I hope to not only make people laugh but maybe point out some things that could use work.

I posted about this in another thread but it still makes me laugh. I was playing Meltdown as Marquis, and doing a pretty good job sniping people at the start. Too good apparently because it caused the opponents Miko, and Shayne&Aurox to literally chase me around my teams half of the map until I could get away or lead them to my allies… though one time I was able to kill the Shayne&Aurox with a well timed and placed ult.

I had someone (I think it was a Rayna?) chase me around while i was low on health until we reached one of our stinger turret, there she finally managed to kill me. Guy stop and taunt. While under fire of the stinger turret. Didn’t finish his taunt.
Thanks to him I spent my wait time before respawning laughing out loud.
A similar case happened with an oscar mike chasing me in my base camp, kill me and taunt. Until he got hammered by a few missiles from the sentry.
the hell is wrong with some peoples :joy: .

the urge to taunt is too strong!

lol I admit I’ve taunted as some dumb ass times before, but not next to turret dumb. XD It’s like they don’t realize they’re vulnerable while taunting

This video. A couple of friends and I were dominating this team and were near their base. We found this marquis and we were about to kill him. Then I melee’d him into my friend playing Ghalt, we decided to all just Melee him to death before I was like “PUSH HIM OFF”. The Galilea ended up with the kill, and taunted him.

Pushed him right out of the game, lol.

This made my day! Oh that poor Marquis.

#7

I love how he rage quit right afterwards XD

#8

Best one for me was when a Phoebe taunted me after a kill. I could SEE my Thorn teammate behind her aimming her ult. Got halfway through her laugh before BOOM! Worth dying just to see that.

#9

Heh, yeah. I’ve watched it quite a few times and showed it to my friends. I haven’t watched it and not laughed yet lol

#10

Something that happened to me was quite fun. I was in a match and me and an enemy Mellka were fighting but we were extremely close to my base. (I was Miko, so she would have won if we were not near my base.) Both of us were almost dead and just kinda… Staring at each other, we both were to afraid to continue fighting I guess. So I decided to taunt, and she taunted back at me and then we had a BADASS taunt battle!

Then OM came and shot me in the back, party pooper. I made it out alive though, and taunted when an ally of mine did about all damage on OM and I stole the kill. ;D

A Reyna and a Phoebe were capturing the 2 thralls camp in Incursion mode, I decided that as a Shayne&Aurox I would try and go steal the camp on my own.

Phoebe wasn’t having it, she sprung towards me trying to kill me, I got some damage in, retreated a bit while both of them stood in the contract circle thing and Reyna threw up her ultimate, I think I managed to get my Tag-Team Ultimate into the bubble causing them to flee from the circle, I then stealthed into the circle to fulfill the contract while they weren’t around.

After I got out of Stealth Phoebe saw what I had done and charged at me and I killed her with a Fetch + Melee/Boomerangs and then stomped out the Reyna as well.

I’ve never had another game like that where I was fighting with 2 other enemies on a 1 v 2 to capture a location. It was very fun, rewarding, and hilarious.

I did the exact same thing I thought I was out of range of the turrets but nope I got hammered by bullets and died to which I say to myself I deserve that.

#13

Ah, I sent someone flying outside the map as Miko as well. It was at a thrall camp IIRC?
that move actually made laugh someone that was watching waiting for respawn. Went with a “LOL MIKO” on the chat :stuck_out_tongue: .
(I’m not sure that this intended that we can send peoples flying over that ledge at that place though. )

I noticed that oscar mike are often party pooper. Those clones are probably too dumb to read the mood ;p

#14

I just remembered a time when I was playing Gal and for whatever reason I found myself up in the air and flying towards the enemy sentry. I decided **** it and charged in with my shield toss to take out as much of the sentry as I could. I ended up taking out the shield and… maybe 14 damage to the sentry? I still don’t know why I went flying. It’s happened a couple of times on a few characters, only in Incursion.

Anyoner knows about Miko’s sticky spore bomb mutation?
That spore bomb is HUGE, and the fun thing is… It sticks to allies.

Was in mission once, but someone was afk and we needed to stand on those pads so we couldn’t continue. I think it was only me, my sister and a random Montana. So I threw the sticky bomb towards him and it got stuck on his knee. Looked pretty funny, yet Montana did not notice it. So after the cooldown, I threw one on his other and he looked down and realised he had those things on his knees.

I could almost see the reaction of the player, he was looking down, running and jumping around. XD Was really funny.

I also threw one of those things on an ally Rath once, it hit his chest. And the spore thingy was so huge, it actually looked like Rath was wearing upper body armour. He looked derpy af.
(Maybe I have a screenshot of it…)

My very first exposure to the game was a PvE with Thorn. I wandered what that move with the bow was that she was doing every minute or two. Then I realized I was pressing “G” by mistake all the time.

#17

hah here something funny

#18

I wish I had been recording when this happened, but during an Incursion match I had an enemy Benedict jump off the cliff near the Thrall camp very, very slowly. He double jumped backwards from me to create some distance, but he created too much distance and Benedict tends to drift slowly towards the ground. By the time he figured out what he did there was no time to fix it and I just watched him go below the lip of the cliff seemingly in slow motion.

This is all i have at the moment but shows 3 more funny moments

So I was chatting with some people in Void’s Edge, and at the last gate, I told them that I thought with 5 players, you could send two up (which had been a big problem; every time we sent someone up, they’d go down once or twice, burning lives needlessly). So we get there, and everyone is so excited that we could send two up that we forget to protect Wolf. Oops.

And another time, I was playing as Ambra on Meltdown, and our opponents had Galilea. I could tell this Gali was going for the “Frenemies” lore, cuz whenever she saw me, she’d chase me no matter who else was there. So naturally, my team takes advantage of this, I lure her into a trap with Rath and Ghalt a total of 4 times in one game. I got the kill the final time, only a few seconds before the win. The last thing she saw before victory was me taunting her, it was beautiful.
