Got another true story, again just happened moments ago. I acquired "Big Red" and snuck up on the airport, I noticed a scimitar a few hundred meters away from the entrance, I went to blow him up but he started to drive down the road from the main bridge and into the base, as I followed right behind him, he pretty much escorted me right into the base without even knowing I was there(Except for a british soldier on the side of the road watching this whole event), I managed to get right next to the scimitar and took a pic....he also failed.

Well, i didnt fail but the other guy did. Me (Officer kit i picked up) vs some MEC guy with a G3. We both saw each other pretty much at the same time, went to crouch and emptied our magazines into each other.

He didnt hit me once, and i didnt hit him that much either. But when he started reloading i just calmly pulled out my pistol and slowly fired 3 shots into his chest carefully aiming all of them :D

^^^ Did the same thing a few hours ago on Al Basrah, He had AK-47 I had the British Rifleman kit. Running along the side of a building, turned left and there he was. No more than 40M away. Both dropped at the same time, both wasted an whole clip into the dirt around one another (no one hit) yelling at my comp to hurry up and reload (have a felling he was doing the same). I reloaded first, got him in my sights...then got stabbed by his mate.

I only recently found out that the TOW humvee has double zoom also wich explains a thing or two. To be fair i don't get in them often.

PS Mora on page 1 of this thread has 1337 posts, somebody take a picture quick as i fail at that also.

2 months ago On jabal I was flying copilot on the Huey with a full heli. Getting over the Dam we started taking Vodnik fire. Amazingly my Pilot was hit through the open side door and killed Causing me and rest of our squad and other friendlies to scream as we fell to the groud. Over VOIP all you hear is GO HEAVENS THE PILOT WAS KILLED. and various screams.

Looking around the corner, and see a aps racing towards you, duck back, and see the apc racing right past you, than you go with relief around the corner to see 3 full squads and a 2nd apc going in line formation towards you and get killed.

I once saw an F-16 fire a missile at a Cow, which missed, continued on, then missed another Cow, continued on and finally teamkilled a friendly BlackHawk. :lol:

On qwai, I saw the LB and the Chinese scout heli dogfighting. I thought I would help and fire at the LB with my SA-7. I fired, hit the LB square on and the explosion radius wiped out the Chinese heli also. :lol:

When I was flying the A-10 recently, did a reasonably steep diver on a tank with the cannon, only to have the tanks shoot me down half way into my strafing run. :(


Or when, after not flying the MIG for a long time and being used to the ground attack jets I realised the hard way that the MIG canĀ“t reall pull up that fast. :p

One of my worst rounds ever:
Al Basra map. Im joining Sq named TANK VOIP, i get into tank with SL and we go to Willage direction. Before going over bridge I see insurgents camping near bridge, I shoot them and some of them gets blown up. Then SL decides to cross the bridge, when the 50cal gunner screams: C4 on the bridge!!! The SL dont stop and we all get blown up with our super tank. Okey, we all spawn at main, evrybody is swearing, trying to get some vehicle again and then...THE BIG RED ONE rushes in and blows everything up again :lol: And there we are, no vehicles, no RP-s...

...the SL was so shamed that he left the squad.

Bad Guy's Fail: I was on Ejod yesterday out near MEC north desert in the dunes. MEC single seater APC saw me and was charging right at me with a full head of steam. Zoom! drop to prone as he passes over me and away to the west. Few minutes later here he comes bombing toward me again . . Zoom! same deal duck under and watch him drive away. Then a minute later I'm crossing the highway and he's going back to base. Fool drove right over me again and left me unharmed. Maybe he was going to get a gunner lol.

My Best Fail: I was on Sunset City with a full squad of six. I had spawned USMC a few minutes earlier mid round at a bunker in middle. Brought my oh so obedient squad up to the end of the north bridge and spread them out to guard it. After about 5 VERY quiet minutes one of my squadies suggests the idea that maybe we should camp near the ENEMY base.

This is my story of Fail, Let the world of PR know yours.

I played a round today on The Battle Arena server and I can assure you that it will make it to the finals of Face Palm of the year. Most (70%) of the British were busy looking at the ground in Main Base, and once they got bored with that its was a case of *knife* 'sorry' *revive* and then repeat.

I managed to get a Gunner for the APC I had saved from being blown to hell with a friendly C4, only to have one of the worst gunners I have ever had the dis-pleasure of driving for. After spotting a Insurgent with a not so APC friendly RPG I informed my gunner of his location...only to have the gunner look the wrong way *Bang* we took a hit. Again I told the gunner the Insurgents position, then to my disbelief my gunner bailed out of the APC while telling me to run because of a RPG *Face Palm*.

I will not post the name of the Gunner, because *points* you know who you are...FAILED.
Wow, sounds like a story about me. :O
But the driver was shouting in hes microphone so I didn't understand what he was saying. I said two times I didn't understand because he was shouting. And my the game was lagging.

So I failed to. :(

Was that me in the chinese chopper? I have a slight suspision, as I died halfway through a dog fight once. I lost sight of the enemy chopper, then as soon as it appeared (really close!) my chopper blew up. didnt know what the hell happened and asked for the rest of the round as to what did happen, no-one answered though.

and look at this failure.
