Extremely rare occurrances


 Share

Recommended Posts

Server update about to happen, battle-join buttons still available, I click to join a battle. It works. Get in, and instantly this happens:

I got the gold btw. Server didn't actually restart until about 2 minutes after.

 

 

Post your rare occurrences, if you encounter anything that you think has an extremely low chance of happening.

One of the rarest things that sometimes happens is when two players with instant-damage turrets kill each other. I mean, with burn or projectile turrets it's fairly common for them to get killed, but then they get a kill post-mortem, but when, say, two Smokys are shooting each other, they have to fire at the exact same moment in order to be able to kill each other.

 

Oh and I have a gold box story too. One day back in 2012 (before the gold siren was a thing) I was in a battle on Polygon and saw the gold dropping nearby, I went to the spot, stood under it, and when the gold was 1 metre above my tank the server restart happened and the battle instantly ended. RIP.

I remember two occurrences where the first part happened while I was playing in an XP BP battle on the test server many years ago. We both laughed at it in the chat. 

 

As for the second part, there was a day where, a good bit before the recent daily missions update, I needed a Repair Kit to complete the mission so I wouldn't go back to the 3rd week (I had missed a mission on the 6th day of the 4th week so I wouldn't have been happy if I missed it.). All I needed was just one Repair Kit, just one. The repair kit was falling,...falling...falling...falling. As soon as it touched my turret, server update. Man, I flipped out after that happened. If it was a container gold then It'd be worse.

The Gold Box siren went off. I was taking potshots at some of the enemy tanks that went by. I was killed and respawned next to the Gold Box.

long story short, i made friends with a player who had a girly name but never cared whether or not he was really a girl. after talking to him for a long time he started telling me stuff like how some model scout offered him to become a model and he was considering... at this point i was just like, cut the crap man, i know you're most likely some fat guy... then one day he said he'd be visiting my country and wanted to meet me. i expected to see the fat guy so i arranged to meet him right in front of the police station in case he tried to do anything funny. surprise, she was really a girl... one who really looked like a future victoria's secret model.

I had a screenshot a while ago of a Chat Moderator (maybe accidentally?) trying to warn/ban another Moderator who was present in the chat.

 

A green message (like when a player gets banned) appeared that read something like "User cannot be warned/banned" or something like that.

 

Might have a dig through my hard drive and see if I can find it.

That sounds very unrealistic, why would she spend so much money in travel just to meet up with you?

When you use matchmaking battles and teams are fairly balanced.

 

I know it might sound as a spam, but so hard to get into battles when teams are actually fair and in the end of game you can type ''gg'' while thinking, ''Hell yeh, this was really a good game''.

I met a person online and we were online friends for 10 years before we finally met each other in person. We had already exchanged email addresses and phone numbers. I live in Florida, my friend lives in Illinois, which is a little over 1800 miles. I got word that my Aunt was on her deathbed and was admitted to Hospice. She lived in Indiana, neighboring state to Illinois. After seeing my Aunt, I called my friend for a shoulder to cry on. My friend asked the address where I was staying, I told her. Within 2 hours, we met for the first time, I had a shoulder to cry on and some much needed comforting.

lmao what makes you think she spent alot? her country is right beside mine, she probably spent 30 euros on the bus ticket. also, she didn't come just to meet me, she came for something else not far from my village.

Why am I in this match up?

Outcome is inevitable

What do you mean why are you in this match up? Your GS is 8999 - Meaning you are capable of facing Legends because your combo is M4.

He might not have had M4, may be even just had M2, because without kits, you would get M3 only at Marshal rank. Before it was different, but that was before.

it is 9999, he just doesn't have his fully MUed drone equipped right now.

if he has 9999 GS that means he must have turret, hull and 3 modules all m4. and i know that both his hunter and viking are m4 because he had 9999 GS with hunter twins before they made GS include skins.

It doesn't go by just rank, it's also your capabilities. You have a Legend account, so why not go up against Legends? Unless you want battles where your rank is Top Dog and you can take you M4s and slaughter M1s and M2s. Now your up against M3s and M4s and your complaining. If you can't take the heat then create another account and start over.
