[Dwarf4Explosives]

As the title says, what is the coolest thing you've done?
For me, it was putting a disc on top of a motor and then attaching yet more motors with attached disks (which, in turn, had spiked clubs on them) to the first disk in Robot Arena 2. Besides the disc, I had one set of powered wheels, two spikes on either side of the rear casing and two spikes sticking out on top. The resulting gyroscopic force caused the thing to topple all over the place, making it impossible for an enemy to harm me. The conflict between said gyroscopic force and the bot's strange center of gravity (plus the slightly asymmetric placement of the clubs) made things so bad that the discs usually glitched out to the point where they were invisible and undamageable but still capable of supporting the spikes for some reason. I also managed to get the thing to explode like a nuke in the sandbox mode. Plus, the spikes on top turned out to be one of the most useful parts of the design, allowing me to damage enemies even when I was standing on my disc or the disc was flailing in the air like a helicopter blade.

Shores of Hazeron back when fleetships were a thing:
Linked 15 ships (and 1 station) together into a giant flying death-machine with giant laser pods and troop/invasion pods and backup fuel container/storage.

Grappled by a giant crab demon while climbing across the ceiling, proceeded to beat it to death with my bare hands, still attached to the ceiling. Felt good.

Created a gigantic fully independent weapons factory that could basically create me every single type of non exclusive capital ship weapon in the game and every type of missile frigate speacialized missiles.

Destroying a rival 40-man Eve Online corporation by turning the leadership against each other. I made a new account, spent two months in the corp until they trusted me enough to give me some leadership roles. I started to forge quotes, steal items, all blaming it on other people, playing a 'mean girls' style inside job. It ended up with a few big yelling matches on TS between the four other directors (all too dumb and testosterone-packed to realize they've been played) and the corporation disbanding.

Yes, I might be an evil, evil person. But this is Eve, after all. Cruelty is a core game mechanic.

In GMod Spacebuild, built a remote-controllable spacefighter with a working fusion plant with a remote-detonate control (which vented all the water and triggered an unrealistic giant explosion). (It was originally a mining vessel, but I figured I might as well program a self-destruct...)

Ah, I loved space build! Are they still updating it?

[Shadowlord]

I don't think so, but I haven't played it in years now.

In Operation Flashpoint, shooting down an enemy chopper with the manual-aim-only FFAR. You only have a limited amount, they're difficult to line up, and usually both the target and yourself are moving. There's very few really awesome action movie-type moments in Operation Flashpoint, but nothing is cooler than hearing a massive BOOM, then watching a broken helicopter tumble out of the sky, trailing smoke all the way before crashing with a shriek of twisting metal as it hits the ground.

I held a bombed out apartment building in Red Orchestra 2 as an MG42 gunner. Had a clear view of about 60% of the level from almost the top floor. I proceeded to pick off squads of players running along the opposite edge of the level trying to get into an objective point inside a bunker, for almost an entire game. I've played plenty of online military shooters. I'm not that great. Sometimes you'll kill 3 or 4 guys at best and that will be a glory moment.

This was a slaughter. I've never felt like I was in war more than that moment, using tracer rounds to just walk MG42 rounds across ant trails of Russian soldiers trying to make for the trenches that would lead them to the foot of my apartment building. Some of them did, and discovered I had an equally good vantage point on that too, and that the MG42 cut through the corrugated metal roofs and bridges of the trenches like they weren't even there. Those that tried to weave out of the narrow line of advance through open cover usually found themselves blown up by artillery, or cut down by everyone else firing from eye level, if I didn't get them first. It got to the point went to single shot and started going for headshots because I had my range dialed in so well, bullet drop accounted for, everything. It's rare you get to shoot from the exact same spot for long in FPS to get that kind of familiarity.

And still the Russians kept trying to advance in that spot. It must have been like 20 minutes and several ammo reloads later before someone finally got mad enough to play a sniper and force me to give up that position. But the damage was done. I single-handedly broke their will and capability to win, without even moving pretty much. I must have walked away with 25+ kills just from that. It was basically a "and this is why I'll never go to war" moment.

*snip* no idea how that happened.
