One in a million shots in video games.

[LOZFFVII]

Myself and two friends were playing Starfox Assault 1 vs 1 vs 1.

We were playing on the Corneria battle field.
I ran up the roadway trying to get away from Friend A who was trying to blast me with a rocket launcher. I stood still on the highest spot of the roadway trying to kill him with a sniper rifle (I'm rubbish with sniper rifles).
It was at that point that we both had a look at Friend B's screen and realised that he was just running in circles, literally, because we were too busy fighting with ourselves. I decided that because he was running in circles he should be easier to hit with a sniper rifle - so I aimed down at him. I fired once and missed. I aimed again. I fired again - it hit! But it didn't hit Friend B, it hit Friend A who was running after him!
Of all the lucky shots in the world it had to be that one, awesomesauce!

Then there was that other time (same game) my dad and myself were playing (he's actually pretty decent opponent - we can be at a stalemate for nearly an hour in some games).
Playing Corneria again.
Dad shot down my Arwing and I came running at him firing my blaster as fast as I could, whereas he came running at me with a machine gun. We both died at exactly the same time. That was awesome.

In cs at the beginning of a round I just shot randomly with a gun. I didn't intend to kill anyone because I thought that no one would be there anyway. Suddenly I see at my screen that I killed someone with a headshot.

Day of Defeat: Source

on dod_colmar:
Rushing for the enemy flak, and I'm almost there. 3 heavies and 1 medium come at me, get stuck and jam in a narrow corridor, one stg 44 clip later I've killed all 4 of them and have still around 50% of my life left...

 

[Arc_Light]

Cod 4 multiplayer online, enemy gunship over head our entire team is firing machine guns at it, it kills everyone, then with deagle someone brings it down... >_>

 

[heyheysg]

I was on CS_Italy, at the alley to the market. 4 of my team mates were in front of me. One lucky bugger on the other side fired a shot and it just happened that they were in a straight line.

1 shot 4 kills. They were all moving targets. Crazy

I shot an rpg towards a helicopter flying right above me in Bad Company 2, but because I suck at aiming the damn thing, I missed. 2 seconds later that same rocket made explosion-friends with the UAV.

Pokemon Platinum, I caught Mesprit (who as anyone who's played the game knows is nearly impossible to catch) with an Ultra Ball, on my SECOND try, when it had FULL health.
I think my build-up of Pokemon luck has just been depleted for another 11 years. D:

Ya, I caught Rayquaza with one on the first shot when he was at half health.

OT: Probably something grenage based. Where I was randomly throwing stuff in some direction.

GTA 4, I got bored and went on a helicopter cruise up as high as I had patience to fly, then jumped off.
I fall for like a full 20 seconds, plummeting to what should be certain death.
But I hit the very tip of a branch of a tree and somehow just bounce off... and survive?
What made it funnier is that, as I were getting up after 'safely' bouncing a few dozen metres on the road and a few cars, I immediately got run over by a cop and died.

In the original Halo, I was up against some friends in Blood Gulch. My opponent was in a stationary warthog and I had a rocket launcher. I shot the rocket launcher right as my opponent got out of the car. The rocket hit the warthog at such an angle that the warthog flipped through the air to land on me. My opponent got my rocket launcher.

BFBC2, Atacama Desert. I spawn at the Russian deployment and get in a tank. There is a chopper flying around over point C. I shoot once without even moving, then get out and run to the AA gun. On my way over, I get a hit notification for vehicle destroyed and double-kill. The chopper was being flown by two guys who had been pissing me off all night.

TF2 Sniper - Anytime I somehow manage to hipshoot an enemy 6 feet away from me, unscoped, unpowered.

 

[T-Bone24]

I fought off about 3 enemies in a game of Swords on Halo 3. It was awesome, and it was all at the same time. I got it on film, even.

Thrust, turn around, parry, melee, jump, attack, turn, parry, kill.

 

[Gethsemani_v1legacy]

Playing the original Call of Duty on the large winter map with bunkers and a dried out river bed in S&D, I was on the american team and the classical "for fun" tactic on the server I was a regular on was to bunny jump all the way from spawn to the riverbed at the start of every round. So I did this while firing my garand in the general direction of the closest bunker and manage to score a headshot on their teams sniper.
There were plenty of lols and wtfs going around, seeing as how I had bunny jumped a headshot through a tiny firing port half the map away (I didn't even see the sniper).

 

[Sephychu]

My mate once No-Scoped me with the R700 from halfway down the map on Crossfire, while I was looking out of the window from the uphill building. I got saaad.

 

[Gag Hag Wag]

GTA IV online, at the airport with a few chums. My friend was running around erratically behind the big red and white barriers at the south end of the airport. I was about 200 metres away, so his on-screen blip was off. I fired one shot from the sniper, followed by seven people shouting "WHAAAAAAAAAT?!"

I proceeded to blow myself up in a blaze of glory.

 

[fatmann55]

Pretty much every time i play TF2 on the 360 something beyond amazing happens. My alltime favorite was i went to headshot a sniper and just as i pulled the trigger a scout double jumped and was coming down in front of him and he took the headshot. I was then sniped easily because i couldnt stop laughing.

12 years ago I was playing a crappy little physics simulation that was the truncated version of modern "tankz" games. They were simple little cannons that fired one type of ammo. The first person to hit the other wins.

Class was ending so we agreed, "Last shot." He fired and took me out. As a laugh, I had triggered my final shot to go out at 45 degrees and at full power...

The shot cycled through the screen (exiting one side - appearing on the other) 3 times before it came down and blew him into dust.

 

[Tandrews]

On COD 4 on the map (called cross fire I think?) I was at one end of the map trying to counter snipe another guy at the other end of map. As I was lining up my shot at the guy, prone on the bottom floor of a building, he must have seen me and shifted backwards into cover. So the shot I fired missed him. However, it didn't miss a differnent guy leaping out a window of the same building, right into the bullet and giving me a headshot. Needless to say, I was quite chuffed with that.

 

[Zersy]

Well, doesn't have to be a "shot". But things you did in a video game that has so small chances its just insane that it happened at all.

I was playing GTA: SA, and you know how you can jump out of airplanes over the sea and land in the water unharmed? Well I was doing that, over the open sea, and for some incredible reason I hit the ONLY boat out there! ... I was killed =p.

So, anything to share? =3

On PS3 warhawk, on the map Eucadia, in the middle with the main bridge there was a serious tema showdown to capture the bridge base, there were Planes ,Tanks and infantry running all over the place. After a few tries of trying to battle for the base I realised I needed a new strategey, show I loaded up on RPG ammo and got a jetpack as well as plane, using the after burner of the plane I boosted all the from one side to the main bridge, I went into hover mode for the plane and tried to waste as much ammo on the ground below shooting rockects and MG's , then I see someone has me locked on with multiple RPG's , I used my jetpack to jump out and stayed flying in the air doing a terrible job at shooting people from above, then out of no where I get a Gold Trophy .... ? The hell I thought ? after the match when it's safe to check (In Warhawk your always someone's prey) I find out that the Gold Trophy was for hitting a jet packer with a plane and killing him, apparently my place someone fell at such a angle it went under the bridge and killed a guy hiding with his jetpack under it.

Ahhh Yes Warhawk, Good times
