Volgin's attack where he sprays bullets all around him is really annoying.

Metal Gear Solid 3. I've since beat him after losing 10 times, but still.

What I do when outmatched by boarders:

Vent everything but medbay, and, if I have more than 3 crew, put those crew in a room next to medbay, and keep it unvented. If they survive, they get faced with an uncrippled crew that can heal.

That's what I do too, but my crew was in the engine room repairing a hull breach and the mantis were between them and the medbay.

EDIT:

Killed close to the end of my best run yet. I was in Sector 5. I had two Burst Laser II's, boarding and defense drones, two shield layers, three humans, two engis and two rocks, a two-person teleporter, and enough power to run the entire thing at once.

Out of nowhere, in the middle of a battle that I just about to win, I start exploding and the enemy warps away. I had made a note to repair myself as soon as I found a shop, and then promptly forgotten. FUCK.

This wasn't most recent, but it sure was annoying. Playing co op with a friend, map gen gives us an alright map and I get to work expanding and pushing back the AI so I can find a golem or an advanced research/factory/constructor. I explore most of the worlds and I find one of the two AI homeworlds. Knowing that most of the enemy fleet in its core and surrounding worlds are nuclear explosion resistant, he sends one in anyway. It pisses the AI off so much it then stomps us both with a couple hundred tech V ships each, blowing through our turrets.

That damn nuke jumped the progress counter up by 500

Captain Vor and his damn lightning grenades. Anyone who gets downed within reach of one is probably best left alone. Everyone who has tried to revive someone within reach of one of those things just ends up down too.

How come no-one ever tries crawling away from the enemy when they've been downed? Most people seem content to just sit there and watch as team-mates take damage as they try to revive them.

Warframe. I've been farming the first boss to get parts to make his gun.

crawling when downed is so friggin bugged you have next to no control. Nine times out of ten you cant move at all, and when you can it's strictly backwards.
And if Vor is hard for you, wait until you reach Ruk. He's DORF level of !!FUN!!.
I'd be happy to help you, anyway

Finding out my unicorn adventurer had three completed quests...

Turned them in, and then found I could recruit random villagers, so while they had lost one leg and their tail, I got the whole town of farmers under my command and began a crusade across the wastes in an attempt to make it the a slaver fortress.

It failed horribly.

We got ambushed by a huge thing of raiders, and while I had a hunting rifle, I was unable to even stall our defeat. I got shot in the spine, leaving me able to live, however I could do fuck all.

My farmer army got slaughtered and I was finished off.

That's strange, I haven't had too much difficulty crawling. Though the fact that it is strictly backwards does bug me. I've also noticed that the less health you have while downed, the slower you move, which is also problematic, since you crawl very slowly anyways. Though my problem was less with Vor himself and more with my teammates who seemed to just jump on his grenades without even attempting to avoid them. Then another one would run over to revive him before the grenade wore off, which would down them too, leading into some sort of death pattern until the grenade turned off.

My record is currently all four of us getting downed in about ten seconds trying to revive each other while in range of two grenades and in melee range of Vor himself.

Anyways, I'm done with Vor, but now I need to bum-rush my way to a planet that has orokin cells so I can start on making Vor's gun. But first I'll be farming the Jackal for Rhino schematics.

Speaking of which, the first time I fought the Jackal the game decided to bug out on me. My HUD froze and wouldn't update my health or my ammo, and before I knew it I was dead, without being given the option to revive. I think the same thing happened to my teammates, and after a while everyone had to quit because the game wouldn't recognize that we were all dead.

Risen axe to the face took out my only healer on Hard mode. After that, it was all over but the crying.

[SOLDIER First]

Playing Finn and Bones (don't judge me D:)) and tried to do the first icy dungeon (the one with ten icy guards).
Even with my Charmed Flaming Sword with max attack and Frozen Charmed Wooden Shield with max defense and luck I lost.

"Ha ha," I said. "I've killed a dozen Glacial Agnaktors before. I've got it down. Now I'm going to try to kill 2 at the same time."
Everything's going okay, they come into the same area which is slightly annoying but I can deal with it.. right up until they both decide to do the 180 degree ice beam that does ridiculous damage. At the same time. Facing opposite directions.

So the beams cover the whole map and I have no way to avoid them.

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate

[Sinlessmoon]

Just captured a fourth story building, met up with a Russian who told me that I needed to hold of the tanks until reinforcements arrive. "Comrade! We'll hold off the troops while you hold off the tanks!" Thinking this will be simple, I man the Anti-tank rifles and start pounding on the tanks. Running up from the second story to the third story to man that anti-tank rifle and then back again. All of a sudden a bunch of Germans run up the stairs and shoot me in the face.

You had one job.

The very first Call of Duty on Hardened. Man that game gets really, really hard. I really don't want to play it on Veteren.

Jal Drunkenstumbles made a career of fouling opponent players unfortunate enough to fall next to him. It was perhaps not surprising that he met his end when half a dozen goblins gave him a taste of his own medicine.

Blood Bowl: Legendary Edition. I'm not too sad, Dirty Player was the only thing going for him, he never did much damage anyway, and the goblin that did it was ejected from the game.

Serious Sam: the First Encounter. It fits my needs of a mindlessly fun game right now.

Fuck E3M2. I think this map has the most Lost Souls out of any map I've ever seen. And people say Revenants are overused.

The Ultimate Doom

[Squanto]

Snipers, snipers, snipers
So, promptly after missing both a 95% chance shot to kill a sectopod and an 85% chance weapon disable on it, said beast shot my assault and killed my best support.  Obviously, my sniper then had to panic and kill my wounded assault   Heavy floaters come around and decide to say hi in overwatch.  Of course, losing some of my best damage meant that I wouldn't be able to take care of both the sectopod and the floaters in one turn, so with my remaining support I suppressed the sectopod and killed a floater with my second assault.  My heavy missed his second 67% shot to kill the heavy floater.  Next turn, the sectopod misses but the floater critically wounds my heavy, leaving me with just 3 squadmates.  I made the terrible mistake of trying to finish the sectopod with my sniper again.  2 95% chance shots miss, assault takes out the floater (I would have had him go for the sectopod but he wasn't close enough), and the support does the minimum damage possible on her weapon leaving the sectopod with 1 hp.  Sectopod then kills both my sniper and support that turn.  The only way for my assault to escape was by the sectopod, so I ran for some full cover.  Sectopod blows up cover with artillery thingymabob and then shoots and kills assault.  Left with only squaddies in barracks.
