Your most memorable Multiplayer moments.

[img]tongue.gif[/img] I've got a good one:

Playing Halo with 8 freinds... and all vehicles on...

I decided that it was fair to have a 7 against 1 match...

me being the 1...

I started by getting in a tank and driving it into a cave, i jammed it sideways between two rocks and it was impossibe to squeeze back out without turning it upside down and then rotating it through the cave clockwise through the jagged rocks... moving such a heavy thing would take alot of firepower, but i wasn't satisfied with just ONE tank stuck in the cave, so i did so again with a second tank, running over anyone in my path... then my freinds started hopping into warthogs, and they started attempting to drive by while shooting me with the chain gun. Their fast movement however was quickly put to pasture when i rammed them into the same cave bumper-car style and they quickly took controll of the tanks. THey then spent most of the game time trying to corkscrew at least ONE tank out, using the other tank and vehicles to push it out, it took the efforts, combined, of all 7 of them to corkscrew it just half way, i stepped in with a few grenades to assist, and with a huge ammount of sacrifices (leading to a score on their side of -43) they finally mannaged to pry the single vehicle free of it's tomb. Everyone was cheering and patting eachother on the back and then (while they were all celebrating) i flew a tiny hovercraft into the cave and ran over any of those who hadn't hopped in the tank, all the while i had been picking them off but there were so many none of them truley held a grudge, and because they were so centered on the simple act of FREEING a tank, they forgot to check the scoreboard. The game ended with a score of 50 to -50 [img]tongue.gif[/img] With only one person against 7...





Let's hear it for 'em shall we? The Tank Savers! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

My most memorable moment was playing Multiplayer on BG2 with myself. [img]tongue.gif[/img] I just have never played Multi with anybody else though. I'd like to do it sometime.

Hmmm.....
Phantasy Star Online for the Dremcast. I remember, being with 4 other people, 2 with sabres and me and some other guy with mechguns. The sabre guys would go in, hack, slash, then we'd go and clean it up. Anyway, we came up against a horde of monsters. Around twelve of them. Well, we fell back, firing and slashing. It looked SO COOL! One of the sabre guys got knocked over, and just as the monster was about to bury him with a claw, I blew him back 4 feet!!!

Aliens VS Predator for the PC. I was an alien, up against a group of marines. I was with some friends, and we crawled around this huge arena. Suddenly, we spotted them. They were all huddled together in a tight group of 6, trying to get their left and right flanks, as well as forwards and back. They hadn't counted on an assualt from the skies. WE crawled up the walls, then lept at them from 60 foot. Aliens take no height damage, so when we fell on them, we were healthy. WE raked at them, killing 3. Then we lept up again, crawling the walls around them with lightning speed. One tried to lock onto me with a smartgun, and held down the trigger. I dashed behind another marione, and he killed his own man! It was a massacre!

AvP is a wicked game! Its freaky being the Marine at night with your surround-sound stereo hoocked up as your pc speakers. Damn! What was that noise behind me!

[Horatio]

I agree totally, Deathbringer. Some people say that it's scarier with no sound, but I think differently.
An alien environment. You are a marine, with only your pulse rifle and 20 rounds. The smartgun lies forgotten, ammo depleted. Your health is megre, the surroundings dark. *ping* the motion tracker! 10 metres! you see nothing! There's nothing there! *ping* nothing! *ping* five metres! *ping* OH MY GOD!!!!!! PREDATOR!!!!!!
You kill it, and it drops to the floor. You sigh with relief. What? It twitches! What the hell is it doing? Then it sets off its self destruct.
Very cool.

The First (and incidentaly last) Annual Peterhead Academy DooM II Tournament.

Id done well, got myself a seed place which meant id be gauranteed not to go up against serious opposition until the quarters at least. Breezed through the opening rounds - most of the players could hardly play and still though hiding was a valid tactic. Time spent hunting down newbied didnt do my Frag Difference any good, but im still scoring 50-60 per game.

The middle stages were harder - most of the level chaff were gone and the opposition is starting to become a threat. Im still winnig comfortable and my Frag Difference is catching up with the leaders.

The quarters - tough fight and im lucky to win it. Actualy i come second, but im through to the Semis. A field of over a hundred and its down to 8. Two games, four player each, for one hour. For the firest time in the tournament nobody is late. The 8 best players in the school. In 2 areans of death. We draw for the level - and we get the abyss. Nightmare. Its a *huge* open level with tones of *narrow* walkways and very little cover. The exact opposite of my favored terrain.

30 seconds remaining. Reaperman is waaay out in front, im joint second. Before me, reaperman falls to the player in fourth in an intense duel, leaving the survivor wounded and down to Pistol ammo. An easy kill, clinching me second place and a chance at the finals.

Except, at that moment, as I grab my chance at the finals, a stray rocket from the CAMPING B*****D at the far end hits me in the face, totaly by accident, wiping out my final chance.

Even the guy that fired it acknowledged that it was pure luck that he got me, but life is life, death is death and frags are frags. I was out. 7th place out of a field of more than a hundred. Not bad. But, if it wasnt for that shot-in-a-million, I would have been in the final. The final was on my favorite map. I could have won.

EDIT - wierdest thing, my monitor quits with a puff of smoke and a smell of ozone, but it came back five minutes later.

One time a long time ago i was playing a BG2 multi with cloudy, Sazarac, and somebody else. I was sitting in for another player that couldnt be there that time and i was playing Jan if i recall correctly. we were involved in a particularly nasty little battle in that other plane, you know, the one you get stuck in when you do the quests for that in the theater. sorry its been awhile .
anyways, we are fighting a whole bunch of folks, and we seem to be having a rough time of it. Since i was playing Jan i was standing back and using a cross bow and starting to run short on ammo. i looked through my inventory and found my wand of summoning.
I then proceded to cast it over and over to try to give the tanks some backup in the melee. now the whole melee team, and the enemy are getting bombarded by fireballs. Everybody is trying to take potions and cast spells, and party members start to die.
It is not going well. Pretty quickly its must me and one other party member left, and its about that time that i realize that i had grabbed the wrong wand. Instead of the wand of summoning, i had picked up the wand of fireball and I had been bombarding the party with a constant stream of fireballs. So then i tell everybody that i had grabbed the wrong one and i had just killed the party, everybody had a good laugh. Then we reloaded.

Hhhmmm, you sound like someone I once knew for a brief time. Say, do you live in Australia?

My most memorable multiplayer moment was at a Fragstock a few years ago. There was a Half-Life Deathmatch contest going on with 32 people on datacore. I was a killing machine that game! After the fifteen minutes were up, my score was 53/4! I didn't realize what my score was until it was over, it was incredible. I won a Voodoo card. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I was on a power trip for a while after that because I had a crowd of people watching me play all day. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
