The OH-COME-ON-NOW Moment

[rokkolpo]

Just yesterday I was playing Prince of Persia The sand of time and goddamnit, I came to a point I had long forgotten.

You had to jump from a rope onto a button which would lower a little bridge, then jump back on the rope before it swung away then repeat on another button and fast before the bridge went up again.....ALSO my rope was fucking rigged because it only went diagonal, no matter which direction FUCKING diagonal! (also the floor was covered in spikes, so one mistake means death)

/rant
Let's just say it's been some years since my last ragequit.

They got rid of the /roar command in WoW for Worgen.

Now my Worgen warrior just looks retarded when he changes stances.

Recent: Playing as a Spy in Team Fortress 2. I'm fairly good at it, but sometimes fate just craps all over you:

-Rounding a corner? Bump into a Pyro.
-Trying to get to the battlements while cloaked? Get shot in the head by a Sniper that was aiming for someone else.
-An unaware Engineer is upgrading his sentry. Right before you stab he suddenly whips around and crit-wrenches you in the face.
-Hiding in a corner? A teammate runs over to where you are, drawing enemy fire. You both die.

OH COME ON NOW!

Nostalgic: Diddy Kong Racing. Pretty much the entire second half of Adventure mode is one big "OH COME ON NOW" in terms of difficulty. Then when you finally thought you were finished, they suddenly trot out "Adventure 2."

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

When someone gets away in League of Legends (does anyone actually play LoL here?) on less than 50hp. Or when you are trying to run away and you get killed when you think you are safe and sound.

Yep, avid lol player. When i play as Vieg or a soft champ and get exhausted/ignited/nuked at the beggining of every damn team fight. We win and im always the only casualty. My team deciding im some sort of ritual to the team fight gods before they intervene.

Every time I'm cloaked and I bump into an enemy Pyro or enemy holding a shotgun. Since I use Conniver's Kunai and my max health is shit in a bun, four out of five times I'm instakilled.

Don't use it. Terrible weapon in general. In fact, probably about 80% of the weapons in TF2 are useless after the engineer update.

I disagree, no matter how many times the Conniver's Kunai screwed me over, it's saved my life many times. Often I'd be on fire or bled and get a backstab to save me life, or I'm low on health (shocking with a weapon that gives you the lowest max health, I know) and a backstab gets me overhealed.

I generally use it over the butterfly knife and definitly over Your Eternal Reward.

Okay I in a little shock right now because it has JUST happened.
So i was playing Left 4 Dead 2 realism advanced.(With 3 friends,we were talking.)
The Parish.
Last Sequence.The Bridge.
The ones who already played that sequence knows there is a Tank just before you go to the helicopter.
So 3 of us came to the helicopter while the other one was covering us with minigun.
We made it to the helicopter.A smoker got him.
I shot its tongue with the sniper.He got smoked again,right away.
He fell.
I said cover me to the other 2 and went to pick him up.
It was bloody hard but i made it.
I picked him.
He used adrenalin.
We were running to the helicopter.
At the last moment I got smoked.
OH MY GOD.3 SMOKERS.WHAT THE F**K
But wait i am coming to the best part.
My friends Shot the smoker.
And I was slow as hell.
And at he last moment....
A TANK FUCKİNG PUNCHED ME.
I fell.
So..
I am person number 3.
Person 2 was coming to me when we all were saying:Leave no one behind.
When he saw 2 tanks together he said:Fuck it.
And shot me in the head multiple times to be sure i was dead.
He sprinted back to the helicopter and they finished The Parish realism advanced.
I died.
I was speechless at first but that was the biggest OH-CMON-NOW moment of my life.

The giant Boar thing from Nier. You have to "kill" it three times, then run away from it, then "kill" it another two times after that. And each time he dies he leaves gas that takes away health (IIRC).

 

[Grospoliner]

Blood Bowl has these moments, thanks to it's reliance on dice rolls. In one match I lost ever. single. one. of my rolls; passes, blocks, even picking up the freakin' ball, even when using top notch players!

L4D2 had these moments a lot as well, more so than L4D1. You barely survive a couple of huge zombie hordes and surprisingly well-coordinated SE's, you're nearly at the safe house; hello Tank!

Getting matched against opponents of greater difficulty.

Dawn of War 2 pulled this 'joke' with me time and time again.

Hehe. Try World of Tanks.

Sometime ago,
When playing Army of Two: the 40th Day, (with my cousin)
we were almost at the end of the chapter, of resucing the chinese boy who is trying to help his parents, and we were trying to save the cilivans in a, somewhat theater, like, room but with no wall ,since it was blow to bits and thanks to my friend here(cousin)we were compromised and since having that happen they were ready to pull the trigger to the cilivan's head' but who comes to the rescue?! And you guessed correctly, not me but my cousin but having a bad aim and also accuracy he somehow managed to kill both the cilivans and the soldiers, leaving me dead on the ground trying to tied down the captain and we had to restart the checkpoint over again, oh and not once did we have to do this but about 3,4,5, or 6 times or so...
So I decided to restart the entire level and having doing that, we were locked from the weapon's cabin leaving me ammo-less and having my bad shot cousin


Leaving me with my " OH-COME-ON-NOW!!!"

Other M, when she starts flipping out at the presence of Ridley. Not exactly in the context of this thread, but hey, it's what I said.

 

[Ymbirtt]

I just got one today. Playing RuneScape, because I'm cool, Dungeoneering (big randomly generated dungeon with tons of monsters and traps and stuff) with 4 other people, cleaning out a particularly tough room by myself, and down to my last 240/920 hitpoints. I was in a situation where I could kill the last skeleton without taking any damage, when I was called away by the leader because I needed to open a door at the other end of the dungeon. Planted a gatestone so I could get back there quickly, then teleported over to him. The room was completely empty, and all it needed was me to pick the lock on a sarcophagus so everyone else could carry on. 'ported in, clicked the coffin, and I got hit by a booby trap. For 240 damage. Oh dear, you are dead. I'd fought off hordes of undead both earlier and later in the dungeon, but I get defeated by a sodding booby trap. Come on. Really?

 

[BanthaFodder]

alright... playing The Sacrifice in L4D2...
I go on ahead far enough to allow the other team to spawn. The others tell me to wait for a bit, so I go back to the spawn area. then a charger knocks me into the water, a boomer explodes on Louis and Francis, the swarm starts tearing them up, and Zoey's afk. match ends within 2 minutes.

The epilouge bosses in odin sphere. They're are giant pricks, and they always spam their strongest attack when they only have a few hits left

 

[supagama]

Every single time one of my attacks don't register when I'm fighting a boss in Mortal Kombat 9. :<

This, and whenever the story seems to end, another story appears! Plus, the last boss can kill you in 1 hit with a stun lock combo. Also, spending 10 minutes flying a plane in just cause 2, and, as I'm reaching the mission point, HITTING A LAMP POST AND BLOWING UP. Seriously, an armored plane should be able to take that without a problem.

In Metal gear solid when the codec goes off and its someone telling me how to climb a ladder, shoot a gun or telling me about CQC

 

[Zergadooful]

Who says "Oh come on now?"

But it's incredibly annoying when you shoot someone in the head at point blank and they just roll away and one shot you. There is a reason I don't play multiplayer in Gears 2...

 

[Cool Welshy]

Who says "Oh come on now?"

Granted, I would have spouted swear words, but I try to keep it PG.

I get that, but why the "now?"
