i've got a good rofl moment for ya'll
i was playing on mineshaft, i don't remember when, it was a while ago; neither do i remember players. HOWEVER! the aliens had 2 hives, I was commanding, so, although the aliens had 2 hives, i had convinced my marines it was a good idea to take a lot of res nodes, not worry about the hives right away. i get a phase gate outside their hive at sewer, beacon the team, and they all run in. here i am thinking to myself, "alright hive down." NO SIR! NOT TODAY! i look back and there's one guy left crouching behind the hive in that little hole. i tell him to knife away, expecting him to die. NO! the aliums can't find him at first, then a fade finds him, goes down the hole on top of him. at this point i start dropping med packs and cat packs all over this poor marine's head. i tell the reast of my marines to get through to help out asap. NOPE! they get slaughtered....not one shot was pointed toward the hive. knifer's still there, happily knifing away while his head gets sliced in half by a fade, only to have it put back together by magical nanites. long story short, fade stays on top of him trying to kill him, he keeps knifing the hive, hive dies, fades gets shirtguned by a marine who phased in and the knifer SURVIVES!
i spent the next 5 minutes on the floor laughing. they had to eject me to get something done, asal turned on his Mic so the whole team could hear that i wasn't just being an ass and that i couldn't stop(this just helped to fuel my laughter). we ended up losing the game because while this was happening they got the other hive up. but it was certainly a moral victory for me!
