Poll of the Day > ITT: Share funny/cool multiplayer/online gaming stories

(+) Yeah! (+)

Whether they're your own or you heard them somewhere.

I don't actually have any good stories since I rarely play online, but here's a couple I found.

One time about 12 years ago in the post game lobby of a halo 2 match I listened while a couple guys threatened to beat each other with baseball bats and were asking for addresses

Videos, even better?!?!

Pelvic thrust this!

^That was a bunch of terms I'm not familiar with. I just got that you solo'd a room full of enemies.

not much of a online multiplayer fan, but used to have fun getting drunk and playing halo with my best friend. due to playing on the same system we 99% of the time got teamed up with each other. well one time we didn't but for some damn reason the game still spawned us really close to each other, and he just assumed I was on his team. told me to grab the shotgun and he'd grab the sniper (which was our usually thing) so I did, pointed my shotgun at him and just said "we ain't on the same team pal" followed with him going "fuck" and trying to turn around and take aim with his sniper at point blank range but little to late for him.

i'm still dumbfounded that we got spawned right next to each other

oh and once in the same game one of our teammates killed my best friend because they wanted the sniper rifle he had. and it turned into him and I, and this dude and his buddy going at with each other the whole match killing each other, and we still managed to beat the other team. it became one hell of a shit show, of grenades being tossed everywhere, people riding around in vehicles just plowing down anyone who got in their way down friend of foe.

In TF2 there was a guy with no mic who decided to be my pocket medic (which means a medic that runs off with me instead of staying with the primary group of teammates).

But he took this to absurd lengths. He would never heal anyone but me. An ally scout that was currently on fire came running up to get healed/saved and the medic just watched him die.

Then every time he ubered me (made me invincible for ten seconds) he'd blast Flight of the Valkyries over chat. And it was an all chat server so the enemy team could hear it too.

Sometimes he'd turn it on even when he didn't have a uber-charge ready and people would start retreating thinking he was about to uber me.

This went on for like an hour. He healed no one else, said nothing, typed nothing, and ubered me dozens of times. Then he left, and gifted me vintage hat that was worth like ten bucks, and then didn't accept my friend request.

It was in Halo 5. I was playing Big Team Battle for Capture the Flag on that Blood-Gultch clone. I managed to run into the enemy base, steal their flag, kill some idiot in the middle of the field, run without any assistance of a vehicle, back to my base, and in the middle of the field, all miraculously without getting spotted, and scored the game's only point.

At around 2 minutes, the other team starting getting aggressive and desperate to tie to match, and started assaulting our base big time, with us holding them back. There were 30 seconds left in the match with us defending our base as hard as we can, with our only point being the only thing our enemies wanted to negate, and I lost my internet connection.

I never learned what happened in the last 30 seconds, if the enemy team scored a point, and my team presumably never recognized my talents in the post-game screen, since I wasn't showing up there.

Heard this one from a friend.

Playing Halo 3, on good ol' Valhalla. Teammate grabs the sniper rifles and pushes mid hill with.

Proceeds to annihilate enemy team with it.

While singing the Scooby-Doo theme song.

"Scooby-Dooby-Doo. pop Where are you? pop pop We've got some work for you now. Triple Kill! Scooby-Dooby-Doo. Overkill! Where are you? Killtacular! We need some help from you now. Killtrocity!"

Almost every time I pick up Elite: Dangerous, honestly. Even just seeing another human is exciting considering the odds of you meeting (outside of some of the constantly active systems).

One time in Rust I was playing "You've got a friend in me" from Toy Story on my mic.

I would stalk people at night naked, play the song from afar, then run up to a big group of people and indiscriminately bash them with a rock while people freaked out and ran around confused. Eventually, they would just kill me because they realize I'm just a naked man with a rock, and they have guns.

Mine is back playing Goldeneye on the N64.

What was funny was anyone ever thinking that was a good game!

Back when I was a teenager me and a few friends would have a small LAN party and play Battlefield 1942

Eventually we would get bored so we would join games that had friendly fire turned on and just focus on sabotaging our own team. We would place land mines all along the runways so planes would blow up, or we would offer to control the gunner of planes while someone else piloted but as soon as we were in the air we would spin around and fire the turret of the plane at the tail to bring he whole thing down.

One time 3 of us picked the engineer class and just did the little wrench animation at a random guy for several minutes while he was trying to actually fight. When he respawned I guess he thought he would get in on it so he ran up to us as an engineer and started wrench-ing right as we all got blown up by a grenade. Shit was hilarious.

LAN party

LAN parties are the best!

Me story. In CS:GO, it's a 5v5 game, best of 16 out of 30 rounds. Despite everyone being strangers, we agreed to play only with knives and flashbangs; no guns allowed. I've played 700 hours of this game, and this kind of thing never happened again. Anyways, everyone honorably abide by the rules for the entire match. In the last round, my teammate, faced with a 1v3 and losing the match 14-16, finds them all in one room, idling around since they could take him on easily. He whips out of his rifle that he bought premeditatively at the beginning of the round for this moment, and quickly kills all 3 of them within seconds before they could react to the gross misconduct and use their sidearm. Everyone's reaction was basically this:

Another battlefield 1942 LAN story. So the jeep could only fit 2 people. There were 3 of us around, so someone had to be left behind. However, we figured out you could ride the jeep by standing ontop of it. We were giggling like school children at this discovery. Quickly, we got 2 more others to ride on top with us, and now we're truly a ruckus of giddy school boys heading to a party. We drove for 10 seconds before we hit a mine, killing everyone onboard. We were all dying of laughter at the sequence of events.

My friends wouldn't allow me to play WWF Raw (SNES) against them unless I looked at the screen while playing.

Why would you not want to look at the screen?

He probably means peeking at their side of the screen.

No, he must have been distracted by something offscreen

I had a moment in Destiny as a hunter, in that map that looks like an evil underground cave, where I basically killed the enemy team twice by myself as they spawned in the next room and kept flooding in. I was using The Last Word and throwing knives (which recharged with each headshot). They did gradually wear me down, but just before I died, hiding behind really poor cover, two guys on my team decided to come over and I was able to get to safety and recharge.

In an example of both why not to camp and bad spawn points, I had a match in CoD4 on Downpour where I called in an air strike on the starting area near the greenhouse and killed all 6 members of their team in the first wave, nobody in the second, then their whole team again in the third wave (because it dropped them all in the same place again). The rage quitting was real. My team was laughing their asses off.

Once during a heated round of Smash, I somehow tanked a Final Smash from Zelda, taking only 1 damage. I still don't know how it happened, but I felt like a Super Saiyan.

No, I meant literally not looking at the TV. I just needed to be told which way to face. WWF Raw is a wrestling game -- it's not a split-screen multi-player game, so there is no "their side of the screen".

I wonder if I would have had a chance at beating my brother if I could have gotten him to look away from the screen. it was the only multiplayer he was clearly better than me at, but he was fucking godly at smackdown games.

I loved watching him take this egotistical dude down a notch. him and I had a back and forth for awhile and after basically giving him a victory choosing one of the weakest dudes while he chose someone like undertaker, he started running his mouth so I just called my brother in. hilarity for me ensued as I watched my brother wipe the floor with him in the game. the funniest moment was when he threw his arms up in celebration thinking he finally landed a clothes line on my brother only to discover my brother had stepped in such a way the referee got hit instead. brother then proceeded to break out a steal chair and work him over while the ref was down. in the end poor guy never landed a single move.
