View Full Version : Confessions of an average player - Confess!!

What makes me laugh about this here forum is the amount of apparently uber awesome playas that exist. Everyone has 2+ k/d and the only reason it's not higher is because of lag.
I love Gears. I'm a very average player with a 1.4 k/d and a 1.0 w/l and I'm not ashamed to admit I've made several errors in MP. So consider this a confessions thread for all the stupid things you've done - be proud people!
I'll get things started:
1) I have on more than one occasion killed myself with the mortar on trenches
2) I have stood next to my own grenades only for it to be detonated by the opposing team
3) I have walked into a 1v1 with a bot thinking it would be an easy kill - only for it to blow me to pieces whilst looking in the opposite direction.

Pretty sure that one happens to the best of us! Bots are crazy >_>

1.) I shoot the boomshot at my feet killing myself.
2.) I've definitely done the bot thing.
3.) I've tried to pull myself into cover only to stand there and get shot.
4.) I've stood out in the open as leader on Aftermath, only to get shot by the opposing sniper 10 seconds in.
I tend to stop paying attention sometimes.

1. I have screamed like a girl the 2 times I got a Hat Trick
2. I have been killed many times by the Longshot on Sandbar
3. I have been murdered countless of times as the Leader in Guardian by a One-Shot on Artillery
4. I have been head-shot a lot on Aftermant
5. I cried when I got second place in a match

Oh the thing's i have done! I think all of us have done something that was embarassing to ourselves.
1.) Tried to blind throw a incendiary grenade when next to cover only to hit it and burn
2.) same with Boomshot
3.) been beat by a bot two-piecing me with a shotgun
4.) Been Oscar Miked by a Bot with sniper, yeah that happened to me; my jaw hit the floor.
5.) Killed myself with my own digger rushing fwd after firing it
6.) The worst one for me is when i get surprised and try to whip out my shotgun real fast and die with a smoke in my hand like a dumbass.
I'm sure they're others but i can't recall. Those are the ones that stick out.

I got shot at while charging a torque and view kick caused my shot to hit the wall in front of me and because i was getting shot i needed to get into cover. I took cover next to my explosive arrow, things did not end well.
Lambent Venom
04-29-2012, 07:44 PM
I've done tons of those things. I also like to pop my head in and out of cover when I can clearly see a sniper aimed my way just to tease them. Sometimes I lose my head, sometimes I don't. I also like to chainsaw people that are clearly out of range but it's funny to try.

Haha? who hasn't done anything foolish when playing GOW? I can't think of any combination of events i haven't done... Blow self up? Check! Suicide? Check! Miss a sawed off on three occasions in a row against 1 player! You know the answer! Although that was also a fail on the other player for not killing me via Gnasher. ^_^
Most embarrassing thing in recent memory? hmmm... throwing a frag in a 2v1 situation on Old Town, only for it to bounce back at my feet with just enough time for me to say Ohh No! Ohh SH**?! :p

I played a game so badly that a wallbouncing player on the other team decided to duel me 1v1 in close proximity using a longshot against my gnasher.

1) I enjoy trolling players using my Sniper Retro and when they start to rush - corner camp with my Sawed-Off
2) I WILL sacrifice a teammate by tossing in my smoke grenade to set off a Frag if the end result is 2+ enemies die in the process.
3) I will fire a Boomshot at a enemy point blank killing myself and him to ensure if the Boomshot is picked up by his teammate it has one less shot
4) If you are a overly cocky player who trashtalks teammates, I WILL throw a smoke grenade at your planted grenades and purposely run infront of you when you are about to fire your Boomshot.
5) If you hump me, expect it in return - EVERY time I kill you (In which I generally become their nemesis after :P)
6) I boost medals (in private and usually in "Local")
7) I've thrown a frag only to have it hit something the moment I toss it and bounce back right at my feet
8) I've killed myself on Thrashball in the Frag room because I tossed a smoke in there and followed it - forgetting I planted a nade in there shortly before.
9) I've fired the Motar and had it hit something directly above me.......
10) I've had a bot Superman + Hail-mary me....

I have good games and bad ones, but I'm not ashamed to admit the bad ones.
I've made several mistakes that could have been avoided and resulted in my demise, by my own hand or the hands of others.

I am probably the worst culprit of smoking/inking myself because I underestimate detonation time and run in after it......I still haven't learned my lesson.

I've mortared myself at Trenches
I've been killed by a bot who looked in the opposite direction while as leader
I (to piss of my friend) stood in the corner with him there (so he couldn't move) to get purposely torque and we exploded (he was leader in Guardian) and it was hilarious
got killed by an ink on the stairs of the library on mercy when i was near spawn....made no sense

Ive been full arm rip executed by a bot at the end of a round.
Ive retro charged with one life left into a group of 5 opposing teammates as the last one alive
Ive pulled off and amazing 1v5 clutch execution only to be killed by my own grenade the next round
ive blind fired a mortar only to have it kicked back to me by the enemy i tried to kill.
Ive used the cheap retro jab tactic.
Ive two pieced with a hammerburst
i rev the chainsaw in a gnasher fight
I will arm rip/ beat down you only if you teabagged me before.
If you were a good opponent i will curbstomp you out of respect

My K/D in KOTH is kind of sucky, 0.9 . The reason is that I play alone and I try to break the circle whenever I can because most of the times the randoms won't do anything.
I am pretty sure that I've killed myself with Frags, Incendiaries, Boomshot, Mortar and Torque Bow at least once :P
I remember a bot blew my head off with a Torque Bow shot across the map. That was actually pretty funny.

Excellent thread, you could get the impression reading this forum that we are surrounded by 'Gears Gods', good to have some average moments exposed.
I have experienced most of the errors of judgement already listed, but my all-time favourite is tea-bagging a downed team mate (only do it to friends) and losing my head to an opponents long-shot.

I was at lower flamethrower at old town, dude blind fired a digger over the cover and if I would of stood still I would of been fine......but instead rolled back of cover and caught the digger like a boss.

I remember one time I was on the locust side. I knew it too. I walked in the middle of the map. I saw Carmine walking toward me, and for some reason I thought he was my partner. then he killed me

04-30-2012, 04:03 AM
1. I get really mad if i lose in a gnasher battle i believe i should have won
2. I always pop my head out and get it taken off by a longshot
3. I always kill the best people but lose to a bot
4. I have killed myself with all kinds of weapons including boomshots, frags, inks and more. (never learn)
5. Won a match with a 1v4 clutch, only to be murdered the next game
6. Got raped by 1 player who killed me 6 times, he then sent me a nice message telling me im sh*t :)
7. Got downed while holding a grenade (team mate came to pick me up) little icon showing right trigger button showed up, pressed it then thought .... OH SH** BOOM!

I do a lot of stupid things while playing,such as...
Trying to sneak up on someone who has the right hand advantage.
Trying to plant a frag with the shoot button...Oh s**t,did I just...BOOM!!!
Running into a gnasher battle...with the lancer equipped.
Emptying clip after clip into someone..and then realize heīs on my team.
Probably a few more I canīt remember right now,Iīll write them in later if i remember.

04-30-2012, 05:25 AM
I have on multiple occasions tried to retro run through the middle of thrashball only to be downed in seconds ( everyone did it in the beta why not now ? )
the bots always dance around me and beat my ass down when I get too close
Mystic
04-30-2012, 05:50 AM
I do all of that quite regularly lol.
Maybe I'm a bad person but it always makes me laugh when I accidently kill my own team mates with the score board on Thrashball or the kryll on Bulletmarsh.
Getting nade tagged and accidently jumping into your own team mates is always lol worthy.

I have good games and bad games and a average K/D ratio of 1.3.
I have done plenty of stupid things especially with the boom shot, killing myself & a enemy when I have let them get to close. I continuously fail tossing inks, frags, smokes & incides I gets to the point now when I just laugh and try to pretend I am a bot swinging my smoke.

I'll give you a few, from a player with a 1.9 overall versus K/D, and close to a 2.0 W/L.
I've killed myself with Inks more than ten times.
I kill myself with the boomshot around once in every 30 shots.

i am MVP all day, best player on gears with a 3,000 kd... having said that.
1. IF i toss a grenade i will hit anything possible in its way and more then likely kill myself with it as it goes exactly where i don't want it, to the extent i know who is watching my screen at the time because they always start laughing.
2.) i have been know to on occasion play a match as cog, and not notice i am locust on the next and either shoot like a maniac at my team mates on the first cap or "back up" an enemy as he grabs a power weapon and procides to kill me.
Ahhh Dodgyknees we have played each other often including last night in WASN
1,, Standing on top of the hill on Overpass near the scorcher spawn i see somebody through the grates on the floor so i try throwing a flame grenade through it to kill him and it turns out grenades dont go through the grid = SUICIDE
2,, As last man out in TDM on trenches with 8 people left on the opp team. I kill 6 by various methods, down the 7th near the channels leading up to mortar knowing that the last player and worst on their team is at the top of the hill having just picked up the one shot. I meatshielded the 7th forgetting that the one shot goes through meatshields and also blows away everything behind it
3,, At least 1 suicide every day
4,, Forgetting which team im on at least once every day

I tried to blind toss a frag while in cover , only for it to hit the wall n bounce infront of my feet. ...oh shi.........lol. I have tried to stand my ground with a gnasher versus a rushing s/o user...silly me thought me shooting him in the face first was a good idea. I have rushed an Idle player just to get chainsawed lol. oh and on many occasions I have tossed a frag in the air while trying to beat it to its destination only to be blown up by it lol.

OMG Its B3RT

4.) Been Oscar Miked by a Bot with sniper, yeah that happened to me; my jaw hit the floor.
Guilty of the same things also I tend not to pick up the torque bow anymore since I seem to kill myself more than anything else.
Also I have ran into my own digger shots I couldn't believe I actually caught up to them oh and I was apart of and on screen quad blindfire by a bot in boom snipes one day, I proceeded to shut off my xbox and go outside after that.

Across most game modes my k/d is generally higher than a 2, but heres my confessions :p
1. I have snook behind someone and still got killed by them
2. I have engaged in a 1v1 with Gnasher and missed every shot
3. I have suicided with Mortar
4. I have suicided with Flame nades
5. I have suicided with Inks
6. I have suicided with Boomshot
7. I have suicided with Frags
8. I have suicided with T-Bow
9. I have suicided with Kryll
10. I have headshotted myself (Gears 2)
That enough :(

04-30-2012, 02:29 PM
I lose a lot against bots in 1v1
My Gnasher hipfire is sometimes absolutely terrible
I suck at pushing people who have corner advantage
Rage too easily
Often lose Gnasher duels even after I walk up behind someone because they twitch at the last second and my shot doesn't kill them

Alright here's mine:
1) I've gone up to people who weren't at their controller, and have missed my Sawed-off Shotgun shot.
2) I have dropped the scoreboard numerous times, on my teammates in clutch moments on Trashball.
3) I went through the trouble of getting the fire extinguisher on Checkout, only to get executed by it.
4) I've fired the mortar and in the heat of things jumped right into it's range, while trying to not die.
This one is just a random funny occurance.
I blind-fired the mortar yesterday. On Trenches, and it looked like a Richter set. The mortar bounced off 3 different objects, and landed right in front of three guys rushing frags. Funniest trip.

04-30-2012, 03:54 PM
1.) I have shot my team mates in the back with the digger and killed myself.
2.) I have touched all four corners of my screen with the cross-hairs in a 1v1 gnasher fight (sarcasm).
3.) I have walked up to someone completely oblivious that I was behind them, missed my shot and got blown away cause of it.
4.) I have shot an enemy grenade and killed my team mates.
5.) I have y-buttoned kids way better when they beat me 9 times outta 10.

Im up for another round of i can be real stupid at this game :P
1. Everytime i take a torquebow,i waste at least 1 shot because i pressed RB -_-`
2.I cant stop trying to mantle kick people,i know it dosent work 3/4 of the time and yet i still try it.
3.If someone kill me 2 time in a row i will only try to kill him witch put myself in horrible situation numerous time.
4.For some reason i belive that at a start of a round people on my team will go for the best power weapon....i die so often in a 1v4 this way its stupid.

I really thought I was the only one. Every time I roll checkout, my team of randoms wants to break for the torque as opposed to gettin he digger/nades. They will send 4 guys to the torque, all die, and we lose all weapons.

Lets see
Incendiaries, Frags, Mortars and Boomshot, killed myself by them all.
Killed myself by a chest bursting Digger that I fired.
Never been killed by my own Ink, but one has caused me to be killed. Both were stunned, and they recover quicker, though they were closer :mad:.
I've pointed blanked someone with a Boomshot, only for me to be the only one that died :mad:.

04-30-2012, 05:15 PM
-I love shooting the boomshot into a ledge in front of me rather than over it.
-I continuously run up to somebody to gib them with the shotgun and right when I am about to get mad at the game for a sponge, I realize I had my snub out.
-It doesn't matter that I know for certain that the guy I see has a sawed-off, I still always rush them with a Gnasher (or sometimes a snub by mistake).
-I have also let bots carry me to victory :P (http://www.youtube.com/watch?list=UUbY0fSNsIZTni1LaJ-SSqBg&v=79YyVawPKsY&feature=player_detailpage#t=184s)

04-30-2012, 10:15 PM
Bless me Marcus... for I have sinned.
I have routinely run up to bots, missed two gnasher shots, then gotten gibbed.
I commit suicide at least twice a week, most recently with my own ink (wow).
I have gotten my head popped on large maps because I was focused on emptying an entire (non-active) lancer clip on some far-off target.
At least once a week, I rush up to a covered opponent for the easy kill, only to find I'm still holding my lancer after calling for my shotgun.
I have on more than one occasion hip-fired the digger right into the wall in front of me, because I thought it would go over.
I do not pick up the longshot or torque during matches, because my lame connection speed makes hitting moving targets near impossible.
I have given my life to revive a downed teammate, only to realize he's a bot.
I can't seem to remember that the gnasher is not an effective counter to retro charges and sos 1v1s.
I use the sos so rarely, that when I do pull it out out of anger, I routinely fire at targets that are too far away.
I have complemented a player on a nice clutch, only to have the same guy yell at me two games later for being deadweight.
I have never been host, ever, except to a group of nine other bots.
I have finished second to a bot on my team in an all-private match (only for the first round though).
I have 0.7 FOR LIFE tattooed across my chest because of a wildly inconsistent internet provider.
-Raven-
04-30-2012, 10:25 PM
1) I bring my natural Hammerburst to 1v1s.
2) I kill myself with the Boomshot an awful lot.
3) Ive never thrown an Ink that HASNT stunned me along with the enemy.
4) I have an insane, practically suicidal style of play thats received much criticism from friends. "Never retreat, hide, or surrender; always charge at the enemy" is my motto. (except when Im Leader)
5) I will always swap out my Gnasher for a rifle when given the chance.
6) There is nothing I fear more than a bot with a shotgun within close range.

I think the worst is when you watch someone hip fire the mortar and it bounces impossibly across the map to direct impact you and you watch it the whole way in dis-belief just to find out it's a bot.

I have routinely run up to bots, missed two gnasher shots, then gotten gibbed.
I commit suicide at least twice a week, most recently with my own ink (wow).
I have gotten my head popped on large maps because I was focused on emptying an entire (non-active) lancer clip on some far-off target.
At least once a week, I rush up to a covered opponent for the easy kill, only to find I'm still holding my lancer after calling for my shotgun.
I have on more than one occasion hip-fired the digger right into the wall in front of me, because I thought it would go over.
I do not pick up the longshot or torque during matches, because my lame connection speed makes hitting moving targets near impossible.
I have given my life to revive a downed teammate, only to realize he's a bot.
I can't seem to remember that the gnasher is not an effective counter to retro charges and sos 1v1s.
I use the sos so rarely, that when I do pull it out out of anger, I routinely fire at targets that are too far away.
I have complemented a player on a nice clutch, only to have the same guy yell at me two games later for being deadweight.
I have never been host, ever, except to a group of nine other bots.
I have finished second to a bot on my team in an all-private match (only for the first round though).
I have 0.7 FOR LIFE tattooed across my chest because of a wildly inconsistent internet provider.
I feel your pain brah! Death to all crappy ISP's........... *cough* Sky broadband *cough* *cough*

6) There is nothing I fear more than a bot with a shotgun within close range.

I shot a digger right into a person's chest, and was close to be impacted as well.
I tried to roll back, but a bot was just standing there glitching(looking back & forth.) Getting me killed.
Sadly, I died. :(

Hahaha... Nice Thread OP
I feel ya on this, and when I am playing online and goof really bad, I get over the mic and say
(while impersonating V. Hoffman) "Textbook example of what not to do!"
1) Frags
2) and mis-judging a barrel role and getting my dome popped or boddied lol
3) Trying to gib a guy the shotgun only to spray him with the lancer. Wow...
4) The ol' "Oh its just a bot, I got this guys" ....... "oh god dammit!"
My K/D is about 0.8 - 1.0 range and win/loss is 1.2 i think

I once managed to roll forward and kill myself with the digger.
My mates and I were crying we were laughing so hard.

1) I have on more than one occasion killed myself with the mortar on trenches
2) I have stood next to my own grenades only for it to be detonated by the opposing team
3) I have walked into a 1v1 with a bot thinking it would be an easy kill - only for it to blow me to pieces whilst looking in the opposite direction.
I have done all of these things. I also kill myself with the flame 'nades way more then I'd care to admit.

Quick match K/D and W/L ratios are a joke due to teams of all bots.
Ranked stats are legit mostly and lower than quick or overall.
Private matches count towards overall ratios.
So if it's not Ranked ratios, the rest is pointless.

Trying to get my Gold Hunter so i am using the sawed off -
Firing the sawed at a guy 10 feet away coz i thought it was a gnasher. Dum dum moment
Thinking you have a shotgun out and firing point blank and noticing you have your AR still out :@
Trying to fire the digger at one shot from the tunnel on trenches and just completely missing infront of 2 of your teammates :/.

We all make mistakes.
I sometimes push too hard with gnasher when I'm at a clear disadvantage. I lose a lot of lives playing recklessly like that.
I run out to meat-shield kills in warzone-rules gametypes because for the past 6 years all I've played is Execution. I get downed a lot by doing this.
I kill myself with frags all the damn time.
I sometimes rage when I get outplayed, instead of respecting the other player's skill.
I assess team situations too quickly and sometimes run/reposition instead of helping a team-mate.

You guys claim that you guys are average players, but most of the people who posted here have a K/D ratio of 1.5 and above. After months of playing this game, I only manage a 1.0. I guess I'm really that bad huh, worse than an average player. I so wanna die! Ha, just kidding. I love this game despite this. :)

Doesn't mean you are bad, some people have good days and bad days, i have a k/d of 0.6 last time i checked. Had a good night last night though, 5 games out of 6 was last man out and took around 4 or 5 of the other guys to kill me (all where red and green ranks)
Was 2nd or top nearly all games

I have blown easy clutches in sudden death by various stupid mistakes.
I saw a bot just aiming his hammer burst at me out of cover, so I ran towards him, right when I got into gib range, without moving, her instantly switched to his gnasher and gibbed me.
I have been sniped by bots' gnashers many times, seriously at the range a long shot would be effective I just fall dead because of the damn things.

What makes me laugh about this here forum is the amount of apparently uber awesome playas that exist. Everyone has 2+ k/d and the only reason it's not higher is because of lag.
I love Gears. I'm a very average player with a 1.4 k/d and a 1.0 w/l and I'm not ashamed to admit I've made several errors in MP. So consider this a confessions thread for all the stupid things you've done - be proud people!
I'll get things started:
1) I have on more than one occasion killed myself with the mortar on trenches
2) I have stood next to my own grenades only for it to be detonated by the opposing team
3) I have walked into a 1v1 with a bot thinking it would be an easy kill - only for it to blow me to pieces whilst looking in the opposite direction.
1.0 W/L! Ouch! I consider myself average and im a 1.5 k/d 2.0 w/l overall (my k/d was better til i left myself in a private game during the AvE2.0 event for 7 hours AFK!!!!!!). My Ranked stats arent great atm, when i play solo i get positive and win and when im in a "stack" things always go to hell! Very annoying :/
Anyway, confessions...
1) I have Planted a smoke, picked up frags, planted one elsewhere then planted Next to the Smoke....:/
2) I have on several occasions attempted to blind fire throw Incins over cover... :/
3) I have on several occasions left my rear guard exposed, expecting my team mates to protect/warn me...:/

Don't have many confessions... I die by Boomshot suicides a lot, but I also choose to die by them a lot.
I do that all the time. I have a lot of "I'm gonna die, but so are you!" moments. :p
I've killed myself with blindfire mortars more than once. :o

4.) I've stood out in the open as leader on Aftermath, only to get shot by the opposing sniper 10 seconds in.
I tend to stop paying attention sometimes.[/QUOTE]
How is that possible? Lmao smh
