Default MOST FRUSTRATING MOMENT

We've heard a lot about players with their most glorious moments. How about those with their most embarrassing or frustrating moments.

For example, driving a tank up a hill near our base looking for a sniper (GAZALA MAP), found it hard looking for him a tank, got out only to be shot and for him to take the tank.....or

Trying desperately to bomb the shore gun in CORAL SEA. Only to be shot down by the shore gun not once but twice (pretty mean feat by the gunner, congradulations).........or

Flying into the wreckage of an enemy plane you just shot down

It sucks, but you just have to laugh at afterwards

Yes, I'm glad there are players on bf that kill teammates. I think they're called *tards or something.

...or even better, teammates that stand by ammo crates, chucking grenades at empty vehicles on home bases. You can't rid your teammate when friendly fire is off, but the vehicles suffer damage when empty. Truly frustating moment...

Most frustrating? That's easy. Piloting (captaining?) a destoyer with competant aft gunner (good shot and won't take your seat while you get out to do repairs) and we're doing major damage for like half to three quarters of a map. Getting the DD in position to lay waste to some vital area but I/we have to repair... well you know what happens next. Some smacktard spawns in, "steals" my position... I politely ask if I can get it back but no, they start moving and turning towards... you guessed it... either the beach or off the map. If the ship isn't gone outright, now the ship is beached with the aft gun pointing so it can't do directed fire at anything except the sea and their aren't than many scouts out there. Such a waste.

Amazingly one time, a guy spawned in and jumped into the drivers seat... he must have got a glimps of me wrenching as he spawned in and he immidiately got right back out and actually appologized. Man if only I could have shook that dudes hand...

Yea, my most frusterating moment would probaly have to be when I was on the airstrip on Battleaxe and the Apache spawned, so I get in and I'm gunner and some other guy is pilot, so we're driving, and he goes into a tail spin then bails out while I'm left there to die. That is really frusterating. Also, when enemies steal your shit and then rub it in "Ha, newb, thanks for the MiG!" Just stealing an enemy's vehicle annoys me.

my most frustrating moment happened today -- i was playing in an EA server for the 2nd or 3rd time since buying the game and the map was iwo jima.. i was sitting still in the battleship and using it as artillery (sitting still so i dont cause alot of lag) then all of a sudden this asshole named "me" starts ramming into me with the carrier - he pushed me around the whole map then i finally sped away from him - but when i turned .. he turned with me and rammed me again til i couldnt get away -- my ship was almost completely turned on its side. i started attacking him trying to sink him because he was pushing me out of bounds .. i couldnt sink him in time because he pushed me out and i couldnt get back in .. a few minutes after he sent his own ship out of bounds and costed the allies 2 ships. i respawned as axis because i was tired of his sh** .

Well, by all means, in my opinion, the most frustrating things in BF1942, are hills.

You trip down a hill a bit, and you die.

You try to drive a tank up a hill, and you just kind of sit there, about to go over it, and then you stop, and slowly roll backwards..

You drive down a slightly steep hill in a Jeep, and you flip forward/backward/left/right, we all know jeeps =P

I hate hills. Reduce the damage taken from hill falls =\

Most Embarrassing: Trash talked with this entire clan cant remember their tags, but eventually 3 of them piled up into to the B17, I go after it and right as I kill all of them I ram into their schrapnel. They died but I had the embarassment of dying like that.

Most Frustrating: Trying to get airborne against a guy who flies way above the clouds til he sees a plane dissapear on minimap then he kills you and returns to the heavens.

I Have a lot of frustrating moments, if my keyboard could talk it would testify. (i bash it in a lot)

Once something really hillarious happened, we were in Kursk when i decided to grab the BF109. I took off and did a circle around my base, and i saw some teamate take the jeep and climb the mountain. I then went for a run on the middle-right base, i did the run and turned towards the middle-left base and then out of nowhere i got obliterated by some well placed shot. As i see my plane float off towards the mountain, i see my teamate in his jeep finally got up the mountain and rolling towards the enemy base, then, WHAM, my plane hits the jeep on its side and he blows up.

I tell you, that is the most unbelievable moment ive ever seen in any game, the chances of that were so slim, and the fact that no one except me and him knew it happened crapped, had everyone seen that they would have had QUITE the laugh.

O and howabout the time in SWO WW2 when i took a jetpack and rammed straight into a tiger tank that had to have happened a couple of time in WW2

You defend a lonely flag. You fight with a guy and his tank, you damage him hard but die. You choose AT Class, knowing that 1 bazooka shot will blow him up and you rescue the flag.
You see the spawn counter going down : 8,7,6, come on bastard i ll get you , 5,4,3,2
1 second before you spawn the flag turns grey.

has to be when, on coral sea, I got a zero right at the start of the game, was flying along with the bomber not far behind me, when I sneeze really hard and jerk the joystick, causing me to plow into the full bomber and kill both of them.

Also, on BotB, I took the Wespe and beside the Windmill, looking into St. Vith. I could see the odd explosion illuminating tanks, so I fired a few shells right into the base, only to have one shell it a damaged tank, blow it up near another damaged tank to have it blow up, as well as several infantry standing around. I was not popular.
