Interactions With The Enemy

[TheCongoSpider 8,942]

Have you had any noteworthy experiences with a particular enemy, or maybe even a group of enemies? Share it here!

 

 

 

There was this Freeze + Dictator on the enemy team that was a nuisance to me, and vice versa with my Vulcan + Dictator. Had a fierce rivalry in the battle. Given that Freeze is Vulcan's biggest weakness, I didn't expect to survive if I were within its range. I just barely missed the kill here when he started circling me. 

 

 

 

 

 

30 seconds after that, we both spawned on the same side and were driving towards each other (the pathway on the right side of picture). Both of us have speed boost enabled. While revving up my barrels, I was thinking about whether to use double damage or double armour. I choose double armour, stopped and reversed behind the wall that is in the middle of the pathway. Coincidentally, the guy chose double armour right as I chose mine.

 

I have the range advantage now and he's hiding behind the wall. I'm rocking my hull back and forth in place and he proceeds to do the same behind the wall while shooting his Freeze over the wall. I countered by shooting my Vulcan for a second, stopping and repeating. We did that for what felt like 30 seconds until an ally came along and we both killed him. 

 

I love these little taunt battles with random enemies sometimes.

My favourite is always when a skilled Railgun player faces a skilled Smoky player and they both wait for one another to shoot. The Smoky waits for Rail to start warming up so that he can knock off his aim, while the Rail waits for the Smoky's shot so that he can then shoot him back without risk of missing due to knockback. This sometimes results in situations where both players just stare each other down for 5-10 seconds until one gets impatient and shoots anyway. I think I actually had a couple cases of this where we stopped, looked at each other, didn't shoot and then just went our different ways  :lol:

When camping there is always on that notice me and try to put an end to my killing. Once he made his intention clear I specifically target him before he come close to me :)

 

I do the other way round, especially on Massacre with campers on both corner of the enemy base. I don't think or know if they actually target me.

 

Tanker tanking are also my favourite (holding a high ground position - usually a thunder Titan/viking), or those who keep coming the same way over and over. I will be there waiting for them. :)

I had something similar where both of us had Shaft rapid fire DD & DA we shot at each other at exactly the same time until it came to what would be the final shot and just looked at each other and went off, he ended up dying to another team mate.

I was juggernaut in chernobyl and saw the other one on top of the building. For some reason I felt like sneaking up on him without shooting. When he turned around and saw me behind... nothing happened! We both stared at each other and decided not to attack. It stayed like that for maybe 2 minutes.

 

Eventually other players came along and destroyed us both. But that was quite a rare and funny thing to see.

I remember having one on a low rank account I had a rather interesting interaction with an enemy jug.

 

So I shot him a few times then he turned toward me and looked at me for a few seconds as if he was saying: "watch it, boi, or I'm gonna kick your butt" I was like "OK" and ceased fire and moved on, and he never shot me back.

That reminds me. Sometimes players shoot me despite me having DA and 50% protection. It's honestly one of the best feelings when I have an enemy slowly chipping away at my health for a good 10 seconds, so then I just turn around and blast them in the face with Magnum/Thunder/Rail/etc. and just one-shot them into oblivion. I know it's unfair and P2W, but just so satisfying...

Everyday, I get into these small rivalry fights with random tankers. Sometimes, if I destroy a guy multiple times, they come for me to return a favor (I do the same, from time to time). Sometimes, these situations end after few standoffs, and sometimes I am literally in "personal fight" with the opponent for the whole match.

I always flip other people back on their tracks regardless of team. Unless I'd one shot them. Then I try to push them back onto their tracks somehow.

 

I like those speechless moments of understanding between two players, like a medic and a tank teaming up wordlessly and causing absolute bedlam or two Railguns having an intense duel detached from the rest of the fight.

I always try to unflip allies, usually they have already pressed delete though. :x

 

For enemies, I dont kill them they have to serve 5 sec penalty so its beneficial for the team.

Eh, I'm too empathetic I guess. I've mained Titan and Viking for almost as long as I've been playing so I know the struggle of being flipped. Sometimes they reciprocate by not attacking me afterwards, other times I'm forced to execute them. It's the thought that counts.

I never let my enemies kill me twice

I was in a Monte Carlo CTF battle on my first account in 2014. I had an M2 Wasp-Rail combo and an enemy had Hornet-Rail. We both were camping behind low walls and killing anyone who spawned in our view. But for some reason, neither he nor I shot at each other.

That was, until he jumped over the ramp to our side and took our flag. I shot at him as he took off the ramp again and... you know what happened next. :lol:

2014/15 Mote Carlo CTF was my favourite.  :wub:

[HRT-219 14]

It's a shame the matchmaking robot doesn't consider any FUN maps when it chooses. Monte Carlo is my favorite.

Or when you have an extremely powerful tank and an m0 smoky comes and shoots you. :lol:

Gonna revive this topic for a bit. Just had a really funny moment in Siege. It was on Aleksandrovsk, and the enemy had a bunch of guys with Gauss. So our team went to capture a point on the hill, and then we see one of the Hornet Gausses start aiming at us with his OD on. So instantly the three of us on the point move back and hide behind the pillar, away from his line of sight. It's the way we all went to hide in unison made it really funny and almost comical

On the other hand, me and 3 other members of my lovely team got blasted away by a Gauss player aiming from a distance. It was both funny and embarrassing to watch.

Lol, would've been a lot more embarrassing if the player was using striker.

I love when I camp, usually with Titan-Magnum-Saboteur. A lot of enemies come to try to kill me and in the end, they make my kill count grows ^^ I love when they send me threats (you're going down soon) but that does not happen ^^

When you both are going to kill each other, but then the gold box siren goes off, and then both of you agree to stop attacking and leave for the gold.

[TheCongoSpider 8,942]

In two instances, I stopped attacking to dodge missiles from 2 Strikers. Was pretty funny watching them try to hit me but fail.

 

First one was against OPSMelee, he was using a Uranium Striker so it was pretty easy to dodge. His teammates ended up killing me though, and he didn't respond to my message. 

 

 

The next occurrence was with nikit-a, a Cyclone Striker I believe. Stayed a good distance away him and kept dodging them. In-between the missiles, I was able to write those two messages and he responded after. 

 

 

 

 

Couldn't get any more scenarios like this though.

Playing on my Master Sergeant account, I've found a very peculiar way of bombing the enemy Juggernaut. I see the Nuclear supply dropping, rush towards it, and wait for a few seconds with my Wasp OD already charged. Usually I do this to prank enemies or to secure the supply for the ally Juggernaut. But thrice it has happened, such that the enemy Juggernaut rushes towards the bait, I plant the Nuke and boom, we got a roasted turkey.

One thing I like about PRO Battles is that there is no pressure to fight from the start of the battle up until its end. You can have simple, meaningless fun with no worries.

I joined a Fort Knox CTF which had like 1 other person on my team and 2 on the other. The battle hadn't ended, but people had left until it was Ko-MARAUDER and myself. We evened out the score and just did random things while nobody else was around. We hardly talked (they were Russian), but we still managed to goof off and not attack each other.

Yusup446 joined later on, and had fun with us. However, they were there briefly.

The scores are low because we had left and rejoined one time each, but our original scores were only high because of the actual battling before this. The end screen didn't show up so i took this picture while pressing Tab.

 

We ended up spending about 10 minutes doing whatever and got a pretty good amount of crystals to do so. (Look at the fund)
