Seeing as how we have the Funniest kill thread, here's its partner.
What was your funniest death?
Mine was back when I origonally had a TR Cloaker. I had hopped into the chaingunner's possition of a prowler and was providing air cover when we were beset apun by an NC armor collume. I some how manage to bail at the last moment with Prowler exploding behind me. Now get this, I'm fully stealthed, just cheated death, and no one has a clue. I turn around to the hull of a Vangaurd landing on me, lady luck can be a *spoon* at times.
My first go at flying a gal for a resecure, I bail out too, thinking the gal will continue flying like a mossie, I land safely we hacking the door, BOOM gal comes down and kills 3/4 of the squad inc me.
I certed cloaking for the first time, run from an ams outside a cy to the enemy base, I'm croutched outside the cy watching a tr guy run around the wall when he looks over and kills me. I'm thinking how the hell did he find me here? He sends me a tell that read "Push B to cloak next time"....
The second time I ran out of ammo in a bio lab after the nc had blown the gen(go figure) and I surged from the cc to the bd spamming V-V-V past the NC only to be killed at the exit by enemy CE.
last night on Solsar i was running around in a magrider column and we decided to try and take Bastet (the LLU base beside Seth) so i hop out and go for the hack in my pilot gear.
note: the only weapon i have in my pilot gear is a Beamer.
so somone hacks the base before i can and i start getting sniped by a Cycler on the hill. i run behind a column and a friendly reaver kills the guy. im down to almost no health, so im laughing here. i go back towards the CC door where apparently a cloaker is waiting for me with his knife. he lunges at me and i whip out my beamer, 1 2 3 shots to his face and he dies.
but, Planetside gameplay mechanics allow for if you press the trigger, the shot WILL go through regardless. so after he's dead on the ground, his knife stab hits me and i die.
its gotta be when i was a cloaker. I was sneaking into an nc base, sensor sheild on, crouched, and staying clear of all NC. right when i get to the backdoor, a tr ams pops outta no where and mows me down.
This belongs in a "Stupidist thing every done in PS" thread tbh, but here goes.
Nearly 2 yrs ago I was in a Gal with my outfit en route to back up a VS assault on a TR base. We nearly had it and it wouldn't have taken much more to be in and have the base capped. However, as we bailed for some unknown reason I felt it would be a good idea to OS as I fell, (Don't know why the hell I did, maybe half cut, maybe just plain dumb, I'd only had OS a short while at that point).
Well as we dropped, the OS wound up and wiped out everyone who bailed from the gal, everyone on the roof of the base, everyone at the front door and our only AMS.
I wasn't very popular with the rest of the VS that night, the TR however were really impressed. I've never seen so many Hate/Congratulations tells ever, my whole chat was solid blue tells.

My first foray into this game many years ago gave me the story for this.
I logged on not sure what to expect from this here game. I had no idea about VR training to level up and get more competetive weapons so I just ran up to the Equipment term right out of the Sanc spawns and muscled through making my first loadout. It was confusing as I was sure there had to be more weapons to choose from. So I got myself a Suppressor and some grenades and some ammo and went to the Hart in my Agile Armor.
Once in the HART I was once again reaffirmed that I had no idea what I was supposed to do, so I look at every continent looking for something to do or help out on.
Wait...whats that? A flashing yellow orb of a thing moving from one of our bases to an enemy base it looked like. I should see what that is.
So I drop, thinking how cool it was that I was actually dropping in a pod down to the surface of the continent. I hit the ground and pull out my weapon. I open my map and get my bearings and begin heading towards the flashing yellow orb thing. I rise over one hill, still cant see anything. Then rise of another one to see a ginormous white, blue and yellow tank which was carrying the flashing orb thingy. Needless to say the end result was me getting slapped in the face by a Vanguard shell.
This pales in comparison though to the story that happened once I figured out how to get new weapons.
I lived and died by the Punisher the first week I played this game. How cool is it to have one gun that can shoot bullets, rockets and grenades!?!!? I had my first grip of reality with that weapon when I saw an NC max on the catwalks of a base and I was damn determined to take him out with the rocket mode on the Punisher.
After about what felt like 10 minutes worth of rockets and the damn thing still wasnt dead I just gave up and ran up to him throwing frag grenades out of it, after which he promptly blasted me into the ground.
Ahh the early days, lol.
