It's time like these I consider getting into TF2.

Never any other time, though.

I've got two, from 2014 and 2013.

I spawned as a scientist traitor and proceeded to spend the first few minutes trying to figure out how to make a proper bomb. I eventually gave up. So I decided to use the one scientific skill I DO know how to do: Chemistry. So I fill a large beaker with neurotoxin and rig up a hypospray to inject it instantly into someone, rendering them incapacitated. I also have a fake ID made for myself with the name of another scientist on it and order a mask that changes my voice to that of the person who's ID I'm wearing. I then wander around trying to find someone to assassinate stealthily. Eventually I find a lone chemist mixing stuff in the lab. I don my false ID, so I'm not incriminated if things go south, and inject him with the neurotoxin. He immediately starts swinging at me with his toolbox. I knock it out of his hands with my own improvised weapon and then bash him to death when the neurotoxin takes effect. I loot his ID and find out he's actually the Research Director. After equipping his PDA and jumpsuit, not that anyone can see them under my labcoat, I stash his body in a disposal chute and spend the rest of the round pretending to be him and trying to figure out how to make bombs. No one notices and I escape in the shuttle with everyone else. Never did figure out how to make bombs properly though.

You are clearly qualified to be a Research Director.   Give yourself a raise and demand a comfy chair.

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

1 soldier + 1 GWTB Blues grenade launcher + 50 or so molotov cocktails = something. The grenade launcher in question has a stupidly high amount of recoil, enough to send the user flying (and, if they're moving fast enough and shoot forward, kill the user instantly). Molotovs will detonate immediately upon the death of the unit carrying them, no matter how they died. Together, they let my soldier basically grenade jump around the whole map killing people, then if I see a chance to do some real damage (like a drop ship), or if something actually fights back, suicide bomb the enemy and cover a quarter of the map in fire.

Then I did that last bit in a tunnel right next to the enemy brain.

Man, I want to play SS 13 so badly, but BYOND apparently hates me, and the game will never load. Well, it loaded once, but lag was so bad I had to wait an upwards of ten seconds for what I did to actually have any effect.

I remember one time making a bomb so powerful, it obliterated/vaporized the bombing range (nothing but the framing of the reinforced walls were left), and damaged the nearby atmosia to the point major repairs were needed. Even the admin was impressed with the lag-making explosion. I think the explosion was -/+(30,15,7) (or are the numbers backwards?) or something. It was big. It even blew out the safety windows in the bomb deployment room, and KO'd me for a moment. I got out before I ran out of air. It was a satisfying boom.

EDIT:
Fun thing to do: As chemist, team up with Virology, and make bloody smoke bombs with all kinds of illin' illnesses, and let them loose in the church. More fun if you're also a cultist doing that for a ritual.

EDIT EDIT:
I gotta play again sometime. Too busy trying to get IRL work, and enough of an income that I can waste a few days playing games nonstop.

I'm UK-based, and I had this issue - however, I found that connecting via a VPN (based in the US) solved all my lag problems...moreso than would be expected from a simple ping delay.  That's assuming you were trying the usual B12 server, that is (Vactor's server).

On topic: a friend and I managed to get several bags of cash and weapons out of the heavily-guarded private security depot without being spotted once.  :D

Managed to squeeze in another recruit in the last 6 days. Of course this was my first playthrough so I didn't manage to get all 6, but 4 is pretty good. Also got Ravian so it's worth it. Engrish (anglponese?) speaking Canadian best character.

Is Harrington the one in Eos or the one in the Badlands? Unless I use the Nano Rifle, I cannot take out the one in the badlands.  Even with giant amounts of explosives, it never gets completely destroyed, and there is so little cover to prevent being annihalated by the EDF response.  The one in Eos is still hard, but considerably easier. 
My own for that game is always playing on the insane difficulty.  I wish there was one that was a bit harder, but playing on insane gives it a true guerrilla feel.  The longer you stay, the less your chances of getting out alive become.

The trick, and most satisfying way, to take down Harrington is to use the upgraded sledge on the metal beams that connect the under-structure to the indestructible support pylons.

Is it possible/fun to spectate that game without playing it?  It sounds so interesting but I don't have the time to invest in learning to play something like that.
