Overwhelmed by the Soviets. I need to get better at managing multiple fronts in RTS games.

Multiplayer, I assume? Just play team games, and hope you get one of the flanks.

I logged out of the game to accept a phone call. When I came back and tried to log back in, I discovered an absolutely humongous patch being downloaded. I'm probably not going to be able to play for a while now :P

I was busy playing around with a physics map when a random Master Chief I spawned and forgot came up behind me and punched me to death.

Had to stay alive for about a minute and a half. Found a spot that left me almost untouchable, and held out for five. I decided to end it and broke from cover. The final time was 11 minutes, 4 seconds, much of which was spent runing around with my gun holstered because I wanted it to end goddamnit. Then the game crashed, meaning everything was wasted.

Pinnacle Station? I don't recall that, when in the game is it?

It's one of the two DLC for the game, the other being Bring Down The Sky. I think you can do it whenever after becoming a Spectre if you have it downloaded.

AI actually, caught me by surprise ambushing my tank division who had pushed very far to cap because we were close to losing. At that point I couldn't recover in time and lost, damn you Stalin!

I cannot express just how pissed off I am.

I was near the end of a jumping puzzle, when my character interpreted two taps forward one second apart as a double tap, making him roll of the edge and die.

Trust me, turn that functionality off. You can dodge with V by default, and that's way better than wasting endurance or dying due to accidental double-taps.

Seconded, it takes a little bit to get used to.  But you'll want to at the very least turn off double tap to dodge when doing jps and turn it back on after.

I accidentally clicked through my objective, which was to escort a civilian ship off the enemy side of the map.  I believed that the main difficulty would be killing the enemies while protecting the civilian ship.  So I had my combat mech fly off in front to draw fire while the civilian ship ran towards our map edge.

This turned out to be a mistake, as the combat mech has no shields of its own and mediocre flak.  It was ripped apart, leaving only the support mech and the Sunrider against a fleet of six mechs and two cruisers.  Deciding to end the fight quickly, I fired both the Sunrider's nuclear missiles (one of which was shot down despite being a 100% shot), and then obliterated an enemy mech and cruiser with the vanguard cannon.  As we finished tried to finish off the remaining mechs two more cruisers and a missile frigate warped in.  With support mech spending all its actions to repair the Sunrider, all I could do was take out one mech per turn.  The cruisers got into firing range with their kinetic cannons while two durable enemy bombers moved within close range.  I blew my remaining command points spamming the "repair drone" order and took out the bombers with my own cannons, which is decidedly not what they are designed for.

Then six enemy cruisers warped in.

I was doing great. Had a jetpack, a freeze ray, the Udjat Eye and loads of money...

And then my (dead) co-op partner misplaced a little gust.

I went flying down several levels of the stage, through at least four(!) enemies, before landing solidly on a mantrap and dying instantly.

I decided to test a bunch of destruction spells I had never tried before on the local guards. They didn't like it apparently and I died from an arrow in the head.

In the Pz II Luchs and me and 3 teammates have cornered a SU-100 (last guy on the enemy team) and right as we cap I plant one in his side point-blank killing him... Then a friendly SPG nails me accidentally because we all wanted the last kill, oh well.

Ahh, the luchs, the cutest tank in the game. Don't let that fool you though, with the sheer agility and speed it has, along with that 30mm autocannon, it's a very very fun tank to drive :P
