Designed a small-ish pistol. Not much in cost, either. Besides the custom-weapon grip and barrel, it only needs 6 iron and some pigment. Despite that, it does more damage than the non-custom rifle you get early on in the campaign - yet it's actually cheaper than if you were to fabricate the rifle yourself. I'm blasting apart with ease things that are, by definition, face-murder incarnate. Only downside is crap durability, but I've always had a problem with custom gear having too-low durability.

After 37 hours and 45 minutes of misery, frustration, gitting gud, and perseverance, I've finally completed the game!

Ha!  I didn't think I could do it, but I got my 3rd boss cell in Dead Cells!  I got ridiculously lucky and got 4 levels in a row with a trap-level portal, which really helped my stats.  I killed the boss with a legendary Infantry Bow(it only had 5 ammo, but man it did ridiculous amounts of damage).   :D

I am now a hero of the Tacketies and utterly reviled by London, so much so that I am shot on sight. It's making it... interesting, to travel around Albion.

I made a submarine.  By accident.   I would put this in the deaths thread but it is surprisingly effective as a submarine.   

It was designed to be a lot like an old american civil war era ironclad, but I may have put a bit too much weight on it and it likes to be underwater.  And do barrel rolls while underwater.  But it still moves at a good clip and all the broadside Advanced Cannons can still fire just fine while underwater, even thrashed my main battleship design once with a broadside of sabot rounds aimed straight at it's underside.  A good 2 size classes above it. 

So I just stuck a couple hydrofoils on the side, and stuck an AI module on it to tell it that if it's pointed almost straight down to turn the hydrofoils to point it back up again and it seems to do just fine for it's size, at least against my own ships.  If only I could make anything that could compete with anything vanilla.

First match, I took out a tank by smashing through the wall next to them, getting a clear shot at their side at point-blank range.

Second match, I scored what I think was my first ever "hull break" kill, because someone brought a reserve vehicle(weakest, but always repaired for free after the match) to a game where I brought 3.3-3.7BR tanks. At the end of the match, I came up on the side of a 3-inch-gun carrier, and fired. Then nearly crapped myself when I saw I only hit the driver, not the gunner, and the turret was turning towards me. Somehow they never fired, and I got the kill.

I'm so fucking pumped about this victory!

735 Spartans vs 953 Thracians and Triballi

I fought to the literal last men but I fucking killed them all. 218 of mine remained and the last few minutes of the battle was a knock down drag out fight between out of ammo skirmishes and peltasts and my battered, nearly wiped out Hoplitai.

TW:R2

Edit: and then the last of the Triballi attacked with mercenary support and Acrotatus II the Indomitable fucking stomped them somehow! Holy shit!

I won my first online match in a fighting game, which is a far cry from the usual total defeat.  I took that win and promptly quit while I was ahead.

Naturally I was playing as the Goddess of Explosions.

Didn't know that existed.

...Lagged like hell on the main menu even at lowest graphics. Seems to have stopped after awhile.

I once got a 27 killstreak in one life in Modern Warfare, and finally died to three snipers 40 feet away, AFTER I killed one of them with a fuckin shotgun somehow, and it was the game winning kill. Never played again after that.

I was enjoying some freerunning and wallscurrying when I got to a certain forced combat section which I remembered being particularly bad, on my no-kills run.  An enclosed car park with a very slow exit-door.

Nice thing about completing a run is that you no longer have anything to prove.  I disarmed the first one, then went Far Cry 2 on the other 5 with only the one magazine.  Discarded the gun, ascended into the pipes.

Later I was being pursued by two police-runners, and a couple of metro cops with pistols "ambushed" me.  Out of curiosity I disarmed one, turned, and shot the runners.  Well.  That's... literally too easy.  Being chased is fun, stopping to punch people isn't.

I got through the first Zero Virus level in Mega Man X5 without using Dark Hold.  It amounted to just getting lucky after about 50 tries, but I did it and got the trophy.  Now I never have to do it again.

In the Shard, when you have to climb out the elevator's escape hatch into the shafts, there's actually dudes that pry open the elevator door and shoot you if you're too slow.  Bet you can't kill those guys.
