I don't know if it's possible in The Twin Snakes, but it's entirely possible in the PC version of the original game (which is the one I've played the most, sadly). Most of the time I end up feeling like a cheater and reloading it to do it the old-fashioned way though, since the PSG1 is useless for almost everything else IIRC.

That's depressing. :C I hate the PSG1 so much. I'm perfectly fine on all the parts in that game except for when you have to use the rifle. I can't stand the blasted thing.

Man, it's my favorite weapon after the Stinger.  The one I really hate using is the guided rockets.

Seriously, you guys need a Metal Gear Solid thread. We've had more posts discussing that series lately than deaths. It's getting a little ridiculous :/

I'm pretty sure it'd just be GUNINANRUNIN and myself though, and all I'd really have to say would be about MGS2 because that's the only game in the series that I have access to at the moment.

EDIT:

Blown apart by a tank because the rocket somehow wasn't enough to hit the damn tank. In the several years I've owned this game, I have never managed to hit the tank in just the right way to make the game happy and let me proceed.

Conflict: Vietnam.

Tried to understand the plot, managed to think about it for about two seconds before I got murderized by Glorious-Symbol for the tenth time in a row.

Trying to kite a zombie horde around a house I lit on fire. Some of the horde didn't follow me all the way around and I found myself flanked.

Trying to kite a zombie horde around a house I lit on fire.[...]

I knew you had it in you. . .judging by those hints you gave on the Cata thread.


I clumsily forgot my +5 Health Charm and decided facing an Ogre with nothing but a rapier and scale armor is a good idea.
Which led me to panic at <5% life, and trigger a spotted paralysis trap in order to try to get the Ogre. Needless to say. . .

It worked.

And then a rat chewed on my brains as me and the Ogre were both paralyzed. x__x

Nope, that character is still alive. C: This one was from earlier today.

Had the defenders on the enemy homeworld outnumbered 2 to 1, and had elite troops dropped in later to reinforce. They beat the whole attack force off, because of a combination of Fortified Bunker the fact they were somehow training troops faster than I could kill them, which was most certainly faster than I was training them at my homeworld which happened to be in the same system.


So, failing that, I sent 4 ships with 35 Nuclear Annihilators each. It seems the developers actually didn't want you to reduce the surface of a planet to melted rock and radioactive ash, since I first had to group them into a fleet, then zoom out before I could give the Bombard order(default attack order doesn't do it). And even then, I had to order them to do it again after they stopped after a few salvos. And then again. Apparently, the ship captains thought they were commiting so horrible an act they felt the need to disobey orders.

First salvo reduced my rep to the bottom, and reduced the planet quality to zero, although only a small percentage of the population was killed. Several more salvos and finally the population was reduced. Then, when the last few of those plebs finally decided to be hit with a nuclear weapon, the last remnant of the planet's holdouts died, the game crashed.

They really didn't want you to wipe out an entire planet with those things.

Distant Worlds: Return of the Shakturi.

A note to all ship captains:
If your great emperor orders you to wipe out all life on a planet, you have two options: 1) glass the planet, or 2) I strap you to one of those bombs and launch it.

The emperor watches.

My fellow traitor, Jack, knocks himself out with N2O and is caught, cuffed, and stripped. After being beaten up a little, he's dragged to escape. My first act was to call the escape shuttle. Armed with an energy crossbow, the captain's carapace, and a SWAT helmet, I make my move. Jack was "guarded" by three people: Hector, who had no weapons and posed no threat, then Malachi and Reynard. They both have guns, but Reynard has the ablative armor as well. I shoot Reynard with my bow, stunning him, then try to shoot Malachi but I missed twice. Instead of continuing, I just grabbed Jack and ran for the theater. I took off his cuffs and brought his locker full of gear from the adjacent room. Malachi had found us again before I entered the theater and called for backup.

I took down a table and then wrenched apart a girder as an escape route for us, then Malachi walks into view. Jack fires his energy gun towards him right as I step out and fire my crossbow. I'm stunned and Malachi is stunned. My ally shakes me up, we grab our weapons, and run for security. At the security checkpoint outside security, Malachi and Reynard caught up to us. I was aiming for the head when I fire at Reynard, but I miss and hit his chest. The bolt gets issued a return to sender and stuns me. Both of them promptly unload an entire laser gun each into me, killing me very quickly. Jack tried to take down those two with his detective's revolver. Malachi then stuns him and puts him in cuffs again. He beats Jack to death with his gun at some point. When the shuttle docks at Central, both of us had the same objectives: Assassinate Vladmir Dimitri (Who went braindead five minutes in) and escape alive. We completed the first.

Out of three rounds I've played as Magnifico Giganticus, I've died twice. I say that's pretty good for a clown.
