Title: That Moment When...
Post by: N-Sunderland on April 07, 2013, 11:18:09 am
That moment when your balloon pops and you try to hit F3 to get the AI to rebuild, but instead you hit 3, which is Chute Vent (happened to me yesterday).

That moment when your gun blocks right when you're about to finish the other ship off.

That moment when your friendly Spire charges at an enemy Galleon.

That moment when you think you're being carronaded but you actually just left hydrogen on.

That moment when you run up to the balloon to rebuild it, and as soon as you're halfway there the hull breaks.

That moment when...

That moment when you are gunning and the engineer just wont repair that last sliver of damage on the propeller and it's driving you mad.

That moment when you decide there is no enemy so you will go up there yourself to repair that propeller, and then get killed by an enemy.

That moment when one of your crewmen tells you "No."

Better yet: that moment when you tell a noob to get on the front gun, but he stays in the rear left gun shooting at nothing. You start typing in caps to get his attention, and he says "I'm not going to listen to caps from some randomer". Then he says "I wasn't reading the chat because I was listening to the captain", which is obviously not true, since the captain was telling him to get on the front gun.

True story.

I did that today, and Keon jokingly asked "When is boarding coming?" to which I said "Tomorrow". All the noobs took me seriously and got really excited XD

The moment when you know your teammate speaks English because they have an English name that completely forms an idea (Random EG , Look at me a gunner), they respond in chat to you once at the end of the game to type out "Good Game" but throughout he game and lobby they refuse to listen to you, remain gunner, and stay only on the artemis despite the fact that I clearly always need the chain gun firing to keep up my DPS! I mean, did they even READ the manual!

That moment when you spawn into the map and you're getting hit by mercs before you even have a chance to load your ammo.

That moment when you have the throttle at full speed with moonshine on but somehow you're going backwards.

That moment when the hull explodes right when you're getting the last rebuild hit on it.

That moment when your gat just won't hit for no reason at all.

That moment when your captain finds a creative place to get the ship stuck and can't find a creative solution to get it out.

The wrong rotary will still let you turn where you want by going in reverse.  It won't be as fast as fixing the correct engine, but just turning NOW is often better than waiting an extra second for the engineer to reach the right engine to turn a bit better.

To counter that, there's that moment when one of your crew members is being unresponsive, and everybody tries to communicate with them but can't because of a language barrier. Then you realize that you're the only one on the ship who speaks their language :D

I just found out that you can still see the switch even if you are in the blackness from falling off your ship.

Also, Sunderland, the SI unit for moronness is the stupid-seconds. (The amount of stupid in a system times the seconds that stupid exists.)

The moment when you spot your prey far below the clouds in Fjords. A lowly spire all alone. Then you hit your chute vent and fall right down beside it in your Junker with your broadside tearing it up. Pre Junker buff.

Then the moment when after that match the other crew cries out in the lobby how freaked out they got screaming "JUNKER JUNKER JUNKER!!!" and the Pilot yelling back "WHERE?!! I CAN'T SEE...OH SH-"

The moment when you engage in a spectacular duel between squids, bobbing and weaving. Then after the match realize all the spectator spots are full because someone started spectating then called all their friends to watch the fight.

The moment when...you kill a galleon with a squid balloon ram that wasn't completely intentional.

The moment when you make an entire enemy team rage quit after they ridiculed your choice of flying a squid...after going 5-0 against them with little or no help from ally.

The moment when...you remember Malcolm Reynold's first rule of flying, every time you take the helm of the ship you love.

That moment in Fjords where you get that weird spawn that puts you near the mountains in the middle of the map. You are facing a ship that beelining towards you. You call your men to battle stations and they start putting rounds into the enemy ship, only to see no hit markers.

Thats when you realise the enemy is actually on the other half of the map, now behind you.

It's just conjecture right now, and it might be coincidence. Birds seem to follow ships, much like dolphins in water. If this is true, seeing birds flying in circles could mean a ship is approaching. I need to test more though.

That moment when you flare a pyramidion's balloon, and it continues through to hit the front weapon on the Goldfish directly behind it, as well as its hull, setting everything on fire.

For reference: http://www.twitch.tv/qwerty2jam/b/417985294

That moment when you tell your slightly nooby teammates a 15-30 second battle plan, including which ships to hit first, and which to stay away from.

Then your Gunner just says "cool."

And you look off your port side and see a friendly Spire rushing his Heavy Carronade at the enemy Galleon's broadside. 


That moment when you jump on top of the main engine of a Goldfish for sh*ts and giggles and fall off the ship while still on top on the engine.

That moment when you try to jump back on the railing and your screen turns normal again.

EDIT: Or to put it in a form relavent to this thread-

That moment when you try to be proactive by flaring a cloud where the enemy could be hiding, and only your ally is in it. And that flare gives the enemy's Galleon vision of your ally.

I should probably calm down.

(But seriously, no mortal tongue can convey the hatred I have for sandstorms on desert scrap)

About a week now- and I'm going to stick with ol' birthday cake. Everyone needs a slice of the celebration~ With the buffed ignition chance, three will completely disable a ship like a flamethrower does- except at a safe distance, and with with explosive damage that can kill once the hull armor goes down.
Not to mention that its extremely horrifying to be on the enemy ship with all of the whistling, confetti, and 6+ stacks of fire on every component.


Earlier today, I flew on a replication of my build named the Rice Cake.
Hark me, the cake legion will take over!

When you come back from a 4-0 deficit in 3v3 after 1 ally disconnects. Your surviving ally keeps meat grinding till they give up and leave. Your Pyra is riddled with more holes than you can count and has literally 1% hull left as you try to use the mostly AI ships as bait. Competent people join midmatch, take up the lost ships. Then you go on and survive till the end on that 1%. Getting the majority of the kills, dodging multiple rams after engines being disabled twice. Then in the end the score reads 7-4.

Shhhh....
Don't tell nobody...

In all seriousness, once you get the crazy arcs and arming distances down, mines become a ridiculously satisfying offensive weapon. 

Hawchafish turning his gun to 'ya? Knock his gunner off mark!

Sniper Mobula annoying you? Surround him with mines, and detonate then all!

WARNING: offensive mining requires a good pilot, a good miner, and two good engineers.

Wait until they're in Gatling range, or just before they reach it, since that'll cancel out any buffs and force them to rebuild when they'd usually be gunning. In terms of aiming... It's a bit tough, since those things have silly hit boxes. Don't go for the top bit of the gun; you'll likely miss. Aiming for around the centre is usually a good bet. Also, remember burst rounds, of course. That minimizes the chance of the hit box screwing you over.

That moment when a your Galleon finds itself the victim of a well-executed Spire ambush from a cloud, and is subsequently awarded a ramming kill while stationary.

Also, Zill, the $25 at 11 years is nothing new. Mobility pilots (transport and refuelers) have had that for a while. With sequestration, the money and flying hours to keep manning for fighter pilots at those previous levels just isn't there anymore. The point nosers here are barely allowed to even fly their airframes because they fly do infrequently.

I can't remember if it was in practice for the Spire tournament, or during the tournament.

We had just gotten a kill on an enemy flak spire, when suddenly we got nailed by something from the direction of the dead spire and exploded.

We were kind of surprised for a moment, then we realised it was a flak shot. From the dead spire?

It was a flak shot that was already in the air when we got our kill, and our fate was inescapable.

That moment when you download Mumble right before the Fjords tournament, try to sign onto the SMAC server, and fail. After a bit you finally get in, but there's a problem.

At the first attempt (the one that failed), it starts saying "Server connection failed: host not found. Reconnecting."

Thing is, once you actually connect, it doesn't stop.

You try disconnecting, closing Mumble... But IT DOESN'T STOP. 

Five hours. FIVE HOURS of waiting/battling, filled with that stupid message OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

Yeah, about 99% sure velcro happens when the hitboxes of your ship overlaps with terrain (the 'velcro' effect is when the collision resolution struggles to figure out which way the ship should be pushed when hitboxes overlap, since it's a non-trivial problem to solve). Sometimes the hitbox of the terrain overlaps with your ship so much that it affects the crew onboard.

Oh my gosh, that's hilarious XD

And unless the low res is deceiving me, there's also a town called "Naufrago"

Isn't there actually a place called Sunderland? Atleast I know I've seen some kind of booze with the name.

Yep, it's in England.
It looks like it says Naufrage. E instead of O.

All right, so we've got a city named after the French word for shipwreck... Huh...

Well, naufrago is spanish for 'shipwrecked person', so it's possibly coincidental that they named it that. I'll still tell people I have a town named after me, though, 'cause that would be awesome.

That moment when everybody's discussing Flotsam in Duck TS, and somebody brings up the topic of what to do if two teams tie for number of titles, to which one of the suggestions is

"They both have to play The Paddling, and whoever does better is the winner."

So then you re-record it again, and your computer is making a loud, irritating beeping sound (probably overheating or something...)

So. I crunched some numbers.

Haven't double checked them, because I'm about to get something to eat, so call me out if I got anything wrong.

So, using public forum statistics and registration dates, I've found the following:
 
I've got 12,305 minutes in 105 days, or about 117 minutes per day,

Sunderland, you've got 53530 minutes in about 220 days, or 243 minutes per day.

That's just over 4 hours a day on the GoI forum.

And I thought my nearly 2 hours a day was bad.

Yes, I need help. I probably need another break from this game (last time I took one, it was to play HL2... Bit late to the party there, though then again I was a bit too young for it when it came out, lol).

BS! The minimap has visual differences with ally and enemy ships other than colour. also in 2v2s you might get lucky enough to not have the same ships on the opposite team, so that is a very faulty test.
I have a slight colour deficiency, which got me into a lot of trouble before this new minimap. they could make it a BIT MORE obvious though.

That moment when you see someone trying to be romantic on the forums in reaction of a conversation about someone apologizing to a person who is colorblind and another person completly raging on it because SHE (B'Elanna) can't understand that the person that was shooting on an allied ship actually was indeed colorblind and was completly trusting the captain to see which ship was enemy or friendly.

yes i mean you josie  :P

by the way B'Elanna, chill out.
I apologized for it, it's not an insult.
and the time he was on my ship was before the new minimap, I only lied 1 time to him and were telling the truth the rest of the match.

ok maybe I lied more then 1 time, but we had fun together and he wasnt angry about it.
he was wandering why I was ramming my ally to death, he kept yelling at me that it was an ally and I said he was a bad ally and he needed to die. After the ship got destroyed I told him it was an enemy. 5 seconds later we laughed to death XD

that moment when cakeman is born
*The music tensens, the violins shrill and the timpany ensemble crescendos from a dull drone to a loud glare. The brass section rallies, building a majestic chord sequence as they steadily increase in volume. The tempo quickens, pizzicato strings countering the deep thudding of the drums and the thumping roar of the brass. Morgan Freeman stands over a lowly chef slaving away in a small kitchen. The oven is clay built and set into the wall. The tools he is using are basic and humble. He wipes sweat off his brow as Freeman begins narrating this poor man's life, in his neverending quest to turn a cake into a real boy. At last the head is done. Using icing to bind the head to the body he has already prepared - he breathes life into the large and sweet goodness he has strived to produce. The music stops. Cakeman takes his first breath. Fade to black.*

That reminds me of a Japanese cartoon I saw my friend's little brother watching.

"Anpanman (アンパンマン Anpanman?)
The main character of the anime, whose head is a bun made by Uncle Jam. His name comes from the fact that he is a man with a head made of bread (Japanese: pan, a loanword from the Portuguese word meaning "bread") that is filled with red bean paste (Japanese: anko) called an anpan. The rhythm of the rhyming name might be loosely idiomatically translated in English as "Bean Bun Boy". He doesn't need to eat or drink to sustain himself and has never been seen eating, as it is believed the bean jam in his head allows him to sustain himself in this manner.

His weaknesses are water and anything else that makes his head dirty. He regains his health and strength when Jam Ojisan bakes him a new head and it is placed on his shoulders. Anpanman's damaged head, with Xs in his eyes, flies off his shoulders once a new baked head is made for him by Uncle Jam. Anpanman came to life when shooting star landed in Uncle Jam's oven while he was baking. He has two special attacks: An-punch and An-kick (with stronger variations of both).

When Anpanman comes across a starving creature or person, he lets the unfortunate creature or person eat part of his head. He also has super hearing in that he can respond to anyone that calls his name out in distress from anywhere in the world."

This is a few days old:

That moment when I join a match that has already started as engie, in a ship with one human capt and all AI crew. The second I join, the captain leaves the match so I take the helm and realize we're in a squid and I've never piloted one. So I go to the nearest enemy and set the AI to attack, and then back to default because we're taking damage and I can't think straight so I decide to (hear this) ram the enemy ship. With a squid. At the lowest throttle. I was already touching them when I decided to go full speed.

That moment when I actually killed them with that ram. I almost cried. Then another captain got in the ship and I just gave him the helm and stayed as gungineer. We won that match [*happy face*]

That moment when I just posted a wall of text here xD But I felt so proud of my stupidity! I crai evrytaim...

That moment when you squish a squid from full health to zero before the commentators had announced all 6 ships. Damn I felt good about that kill  8)

That moment when you later at the same match gave a slight downwards push to a fullspeed goldfish so it crashed on a edge and lost all its armour. It gave Melon McCabernathy the chance to finish the kill and he afterwards called my little push for brutal.

Desert Scrap is now my favourite match :D

That moment when you lose the point on Desert Scrap and fight inside it, repeatedly killing enemies only for the next one to show up and continue holding, till about 100 seconds from losing before finally taking out 2 goldfish by ramming them together into a corner giving you a chance to finally recap the point.

That moment when you win a capture point match with 12 ram kills, 20 kills total, and only 2 deaths.

I like Desert Scrap as well.

That moment when you're in a sniper match that is long enough to justify, as a captain, time to watch anime on your phone and paying only minor attention to the ongoing battle.

That moment when you mistake a junker that is on your team for one that isn't.

That was embarrassing, especially because it was also taking fire from a ship that WAS marked. We kept shooting at our own teammate until the ship exploded and the ship that killed it turned on us.

That moment when you are Galleon. You are flying full speed dead ahead, moonshining, breakind the clouds and sandstorms. Suddenly, an enemy junker appears on your way, and you feel it is too late to turn off moonshine... You crash into him, and he eplodes into gears... the junker's team is sending you "WTF?!" messages to match chat and specs are exited with it, and you feel yourseld exited and a bit dirty.

This happened to me the other day flying a spire.  Galleon appears out of cloud speeding forward, suddenly ship with full health and armor is in smithereens.  Ouch.

When you see the satisfaction of the Red Cross of Death after firing a heavy flak across the map.

When you see it arcing arcing arcing and the enemy is strafing away and it lands right at the tip of the engines and you see their splinters spew out at max speed...even moonshine won't save you now.

When your flak fires first but then you hear the mercury fire...and the merc shots lands JUST before your flak. Spire from full to dead in 0.1 seconds.

And just as satisfying but not as hard to do ... when you patiently wait for the exact moment to ram a lochnagar into their hull at point blank range.

When you hear your captain incredulously question whether you just killed them blind through a dust storm at 1.5k.

I am still not very good at the heavy flak, but it is by far my favorite gun in the game. Unlike even a lumberjack, your shots are slower than a moonshining squid, every shot is 5+ seconds of holding your breath, only 2 attempts per clip, lesmok is for sissies...and that giant red cross, my god that giant red cross vindicating you.

And it's a gun that is completely useless without crew teamwork...the epitome of the guns of icarus ideal!

I think hit crosses should scale linearly with damage. Lochnagar flak should fill the entire screen so the entire world knows how much you destroyed them =D

That moment when enemy pilots get mad, blaming their engineers for their guns always being down because you took a double arts.

That moment when a new pilot tries to save themselves from a popped balloon by using hydro as soon as it is repaired.

That moment when burst rounds on everything.

That moment when you blind fire into a cloud with a merc at where you think a fleeing enemy is and wind up destroying their engines.

That moment when you go to loch mine the enemy, only to have a friendly spire pick the worst possible time to go for a ram kill.

That moment when the enemy team gets carried by a high level stack on one of their ships, only to have their newbie teammates trash talk you to hell and back about how awesome they are.

That moment when an enemy repeatedly charges into a meatgrind, then blames their far-more-competent ally for abandoning them.

That moment when you take galleon, only to have an enemy switch to lumber spire at the last possible moment.

That moment when you take three all-banshee junkers into a 3v3 and 7-0 the enemy team who took legitimate loadouts.

That moment when you read up on game mechanics and strategies a lot and are more knowledgeable than your captain, but they see they are a higher level in one class and instantly dismiss everything you say.

That moment when you are accused of not fixing the hull despite it being on mallet cooldown and the captain busying themselves with destroying their engines via moonshine.

That moment when you fire a mine a little too accurately and see the single white x of disappointment.

Wow, someone's contrarian today. You are correct, but there is no indication I think that the aiming directly at the ship is where I think I should do it.  I guess you just like correcting people.

That moment when one of those kills involves staring down a pyra until it rams itself to death on your balloon.

While level =/= skill, it's morel likely for the much higher level to win, as they have at least a little experience.

I mean, if they're braindead, then they're easily beaten, but if they're higher level by alot, and have any intelligence, it's a higher chance to win.

Then mid match a high level player joins replacing the decent AI main engi with Spanner, Pipe Wrench, not able to keep Balloon and Engines up against Hwachas and Artemis, constantly mocking about how bad you fly and how bad it is to not use a mic. When the enemy decides to totally ignore your ally and you need to play super defensively by dodging all Hwachas and using little hard cover to maximum effect he gets even harsher in language and says how you are abusing the Squid and asks you if he can take over... Also laughing at your advice to other low level captain how to approach best. (Fun fact I have that person blocked for bad behavior on my main acc since a long time.)

Luckily when playing on alt account I always meet super nice and actually really good new players and this was fortunately the first really bad encounter with a veteran. Also I really wish I had recorded that match, the commentary was priceless.

Funnily enough, I've experienced almost exactly the same thing, except the high level joined as gunner on a squid, and then refused to shoot the balloon with the carronade because, even though we were rarely in gun arcs, he found the risk of being shot too scary with a, and I quote... "level 17 retard who shouldn't be using squid cos squid should only be used by good pilots with a match count of a few thousand."

I didn't block him, but I sure as hell made sure to troll him by following his every lobby for the rest of the night, and got myself onto pilot slot against every match, so many people were understanding and willing to give up their pilot slot for the cause of revenge, he quit with harsh words and reported me..

Oh I've had some fun along these lines. We had a level 45 gunner join our ship who insisted that he didn't 'need' heavy clip for the carro back when the meta blenderfish used it to snipe out balloons at range. They were insulted that I felt they 'needed' it, because you know, super MLG leet 720 no scope skills mean you can defy entropy and the random number generator. Of course they couldn't hit anything with it, kept trying to shoot out engines for no adequately explained reason and then were shocked when the enemy fish (which I think was a Ryder ship pilotted by Lue here) kicked the ever loving crap out of us. You'll never guess whose fault he thought it wasn't.

On the subject of backseat drivers...

Post by: BlackenedPies on September 11, 2015, 03:59:05 pm
I always have a flare on the left side of fish. If you have a choice of which side to use in combat it should always be the right side gun. A flare is an invaluable asset to your team and can be used to put fire stacks on the enemy (15 per shot). Failing the chem cycle on your balloon and getting a 15 stack will make your vertical movement impotent. With heavy clip and good aim it can be used to snipe out guns and engines.

In combat using the left side is only for necessity because the right side is more efficient. Having a flare on your team is a big advantage that lets you see where the enemy is or isn't, and lets you effectively snipe ships behind clouds.

Another good point to note: The right side gun on a fish is further forward than the left side, and a Carronade-flamer/banshee can effectively shoot both guns at the same time.

That moment when the *ahem* "lovely person" piloting the opposing VIP ship decides to make a last second swap to squid and spend the entire match running away dropping aft mines, but they fail to notice their opponents being 2/3 hwachafish.

That moment when you're main engineer and you have a flare gun.
That moment when you save the ship from a flanking fish by flaring the front gun and no one notices.
That moment when the fish's front gun is chemed for the rest of the match, because of one flare.
The moment when you get shouted at for not flaring the front gun of the flanking fish, and you're like: "but it was chemed".

That moment when you're main engineer and you have a flare gun.

That moment when you convince a pub pilot to take two side flares on a pyra.  And successfully score two kills with flares with no environment involved.  Including the final kill.

That moment when you moonshine your squid face first into a canyon wall and it reverses your momentum so perfectly you can escape the intended ram victim by just accepting it and going full speed backwards.

That moment when your captain is doing a Bob Ross impression but the happy little clouds are mines and tar.

That moment when your beginner crewman insist to take a gunner on a goldfish, but you already have a gunner so you send him an engie loadout, but he changes it to his own few seconfs before match, so you end up with teo gunners.

Actually, flare is the only fire weapon that is countered by Extinguisher, especially post buff. Should you miss a chem at all most components tend to go down before you can fully take off all the 15 stacks.

You say that Schwalbe, but I hardly ever see heavy guns chemed , even against veterans or in competitive matches. At least until I flare them :3.

That moment when you wait on your mortar for gat to strip the enemy, but you see the gunner went away so you run to the gun to make it in time, but before you can shoot a gunner grabs your mortar and shoots at the enemy, dealing no damage and ruinin the gat/mortar timing.

That moment when you have been simultaneously rammed by Two Veteran ships and have Somehow survived... for the next 30 seconds anyway.

That moment when you have Caught yourself on a Crane in Labyrinth or Paritan...While doing a Stamina Moonshine burn.

That moment when you "Accidentally" Rammed a Friendly into an enemy ship and somehow killed them both.

That moment when the conversation in the lobby has turned from making a plan to discussing Porn.

That moment when you meet a fellow Forum user in GOI.
And kill them.

That moment when a noob comes to your ship, seemingly listens to your orders, agrees to all you say, only to totally fucking ignore your orders during match while being on the important role of artemis shooter of art-gat-midion.

That moment when shithead like that totally ruins your match (we literally have lost, because that cunt never listened to what all three of us - Isla, Horus and I - were saying).


One more time someone tells me about great new players, I'll punch that someone in the face, cause I haven't witnessed such a miracle in at least 4 months.

That moment when a hwacha spire suicide rams into a pyramidion and dies.

That moment when said pyramidion also dies to the same ram and ends the match in victory for your team.

That moment when you're main decking a pyra, and you're someone's first kill.

That moment when your pilot teases you with double side flare pyra and you don't have time to shoot them because moonshine for days.

That moment when you shoot the side flare anyway and the ship spontaneously implodes due to overburning the engines straight into a hwacha barrage.

That moment when you're told that you're responsible for multiple pub main engis' mindset that shooting flares instead of repairing broken armor, resulting in the death of their ship, is a good idea.

That moment when flares become not only viable in comp matches, but actually set up kills in comp matches.

That moment when you and 6 friends sub for nearly a whole team in the last week of 7 deadly ships.

That moment when the one person who is not a sub tells you that this was the best "they" ever did.

That moment when you and Lysanya are on a mobula with a single flare gun and your cap puts you on the side with the flare, because Steffen knows me.

That moment when there is a new flare meta rising in competitive play, but you are to busy being referee or caster to enjoy the fun.

That moment when you try to tell your captain that flare on 3 is the only way for a metamidion, but they tell you there already is a flare on 4.

That moment when you know that the banshee on 3 will either not be in arc or you are to busy trying to keep the ship alive to use it.

That moment when you use the flare on 4 more often than the banshee on 3.

That moment you use a harpoon on a Mobula as a pilot and throw an enemy Mobula into your minefield.

...you notice that your Galleon was equipped with 4 Flak cannons and not 4 lionguns as you believed.
... you find that your crew is actually composed of bullseyes and don't miss a shot with a heavy flak gun even when travelling at full speed in a direction.
... you win with a ship loadout you didn't even think to have.
