[Mr Space Cat]

Isaac killed me.

Binding of Isaac

[pisskop]

I fell through a grate into a deep chasm while transformed into a dog.  Ironic because I could normally fly.

DF Arena. Finishing up a megabeast and testing ogut a transformation.

[Thexor]

Finished my first alien clean-up with nary a single injury. Thought to myself "perfect, a few moments to raid the Cult of Free Loot!"

I did not expect the crazy cultists to have a rocket launcher. I also did not expect them to land two consecutive direct hits on the same squad. Three soldiers, dead instantly.

Oh, and the game has generated exactly one potential recruit in the first three days of the game, so getting a decent squad back together is going to take a while.

XCOM: Apocalypse. On the plus side, incendiary autocannons are great fun when raiding cultist bases.

While in a gun battle with some NSF troopers, I accidentally shot a UNATCO trooper in the back. He ran in front of me and there was nothing else for it. Said trooper goes batshit, and I shoot him until he starts running away. Navarre senses this from all the way across the map and rushes me. I manage to unload all of my pistol ammo directly into her face and use up two medkits, but to no avail.

Navarre is hard to kill unless you know how.  Tip- Sniper rifle to back of head.

I was only at Battery Park, so I didn't have anything resembling the firepower needed to kill Anna.

That said, I usually kill her with a LAM in the NSF hangar.

Talk her death.

But yeah, that game gives you so many place to kill her. Incidentally, she's the only person entire game who's direct death at your hands* is mandatory, making a 0-kill pacifist run impossible.

You *do* very likely kill a lot of people with the nuke at the end, and are probably implicit in the deaths of possibly millions more in the Collapse, assuming you don't take the Illuminati ending(which requires directly killing Bob Paige anyway).

If you leave her alive until escaping from UNATCO, I'm fairly sure you can just run past her if you're quick enough to dodge her fire. I always end up killing somebody out of surprise, sudden necessity or impatience though. What really bites my balls is getting the violent-option dialogue from Battery Park because Anna rushed in and killed everybody before you could plink them with the crossbow.

I'm fairly sure most of this doesn't need to be in spoilers but it makes us look like top-secret conspiracy dudes

I want to be a top secret dude! How many spoilers do I need to qualify?
I always went for a mix of lethal and non-lethal.  On my first run, I would disable who I could non-lethally and kill the others.  When I faced the UNATCO troops, I tried my best to use non-lethal, as I saw most of them as innocent soldiers with no part in the conspiracy.

It wasn't the last time I died, but it was the first time I died a whole lot.

I got to the last third of the game on my first run, but I haven't actually beaten it due to school and the fact that I lost all my save files in a massive computer meltdown. On that run however, I tried to go non-lethal whenever possible. Eventually though, it became easier to turn on all my combat augs at once and kill everybody with 100% accurate shots from a ridiculously upgraded pistol. That, or run around gibbing anything that caught my eye with the Absolutely Broken Sword Dragon's Tooth.

The stun prod was always my best friend in the early stages, but there's a point when it gets tedious to wait in corners for that one soldier to turn his back just long enough for you to sneak up on him, and then his mate sees you and you have to shoot that guy anyway.

Rainbow Six 3: Black Arrow coop makes you want to kill every single person wearing a Hawaiian shirt hanging around a distinctly European locale. The terrorists in the RS3 series do not play fair by any definition, and half the time I'd already shot them all by the time I realized that one was trying to surrender.

That game (SWAT4) is bloody good fun on a non-lethal playthrough if you know what you're doing and you use your wedges and taser well. Wedges are REALLY important if you want to make sure no civilians or suspects escape the scene. Always secure all other entrances aside from the one you're using to get inside, and if you encounter an intersection, leave one or both of your elements behind to cover it or wedge it until you've secured the first area and are ready to come back. Usually it won't be that simple though and occasionally you'll have to leave an area unsecured in order to finish the mission.

Its only okay to shoot a guy if you give him a warning and he doesn't put down his gun immediately (within one or two seconds of you or a teammate issuing the order), or he opens fire at all. Basically a criminal is always putting someone in danger by firing a weapon, and you're always allowed to take him down if he does so, even if he isn't shooting specifically at a person. The idea is that the bullet he fired from his gun could have hurt someone, even if he wasn't aiming at you, and that you have the right to stop him from using that weapon via any means in order to ensure the safety of the lives of your team, bystanders and the suspects themselves.

If you bust into a room and headshot everyone without giving them a chance to surrender, then you're going to lose a lot of points.

If you're playing on hard, always take light armour. Speed is more important, and you'll stand a much better chance of surviving if you can take cover quickly.

I almost forgot about the Dragons Tooth.  When I got it, I assumed that I must of gotten some kind of DLC or expansion pack with my version, as it was so insanely overpowered.  I think I went another mission or two trying non-lethal, but after that I just started killing everything with that sword.

I rather like the Rainbow Six games but felt they needed a bit more depth. This game interests me and I wish to subscribe to its newsletter.

In other news.

Fuck every single terrorist in the Rainbow Six series. Any one of them that hasn't been shot by Ding and his team, I hope dies cold and alone. Bull fucking shit you can hit me from across the plaza, five stories up with the UMP, Ding couldn't hit himself with one if he was looking down the barrel.

Rainbow Six 3, the Parade level.
