the most despicable inhuman thing you've done in a game (online included)

My little bro used to be love hiding in Halo 3 back when it was popular. We used to play Team Doubles, get a few points or grab the bomb/ball/flag then hide in obscure or difficult to get to places. Oh lawdy the rage...it got kinda boring sometimes but it was always fun to do it to the XXXMLGHARDCORENOSCOPEXXX crowd.

Postal 2 was a dark pleasure of mine.

It's funny how they went from going splat in the PS2 games to rolling hyper-realistically off your bonnet.

After jacking someone's car, I often tap them to watch the Euphoria physics at play. Different ways, like swinging into them at full lock, or hitting them and trying to keep them on the bonnet or hit them while braking so that they fly away quicker. I repeat this until they're dead and then reverse over their corpse for good measure. I also like smashing people against walls.

It's funny, because I'm safety Sam in real life and hate violence and gore.

The physics in GTA IV are a thing of beauty. I couldn't believe the first time I hit someone and they rolled around like that, I actually felt bad for the first time doing it and almost felt the pain of it.

Then I realised how hilarious they looked and did it over and over lol

Standing in front of friendly jets in BF2 as they start to take off. The pilot gets a team kill and after a few times they get kicked from the server. Me and my friends thought it was pretty funny. If I had been the pilot I would have been livid.

Singleplayer- I bludgeoned and dismembered a couple dozen people in a pool area in a Casino in Fallout: New Vegas. There was blood and body parts all over the pool area and floating in the pool. I hated their cannibalistic society so much that I decided to go a little crazy on em'. Then I saved it so I had a nice load screen screenshot of the carnage I caused.

Multiplayer-Hardcore griefing in Dark Souls, killed a players boss without him knowing or wanting it to happen so he could no longer get invaded there. He was a ganking douchebag so I spent a ton of time setting up the counter-gank of all time. The guy obviously lost it and was super pissed that I "ruined" that area for him until next playthrough so he made a thread about it on GameFAQs.

BloodsOnFire said:
I was in the township pvping for a while, got bored and summoned someone that had their white soap stone down to have another fight with me. On a side note, I don't "gank" very often. I usually play and enjoy fair 1v1 duels. Anyway, we start to kill people as they invade, and happened to die a few times ourselves. I summon him again at the bonfire and we continue.

This kid ran off killing mobs and I thought he was killing them incase our next invader decides run. Minutes later, I aquire the Soul Of Manus and get 60k souls. Minutes after that, this kid sends me a message saying "gankers pay the price". Then I tell him he ruined my pvp here, which he replies.

"You just want to team up on invaders and gank. Township has enough of that nonsense. There's always next playthrough."

I'd love to know how this kid even got through the fog gate to manus.

I completely understand that ganking is frowned upon by most players, but when I invade and get ganked, I don't get upset since this is a game. It's obviously a part of the game to be able to summon people to pvp.

I can now never be invaded here until next playthrough, thanks Booshka for killing Manus to teach me a "lesson"

So those who occasionally find yourself summoning people in Township to pvp. Don't summon Booshka.

Reset the Wii when my friend played Animal Crossing. Sometimes even play for a bit under his name, send myself shit that he had that I wanted, and just turning it off when I was done.

I have a closet full of souls I've claimed from Mario Party.

Pretty sure it was pre-puberty to boot, extra high pitch.

Drowned my sims by removing the ladder while they're in the pool.

I think the most inhumane thing that anyone can do in a video game is drop Yoshi in a pit to save yourself. I always hate to see people do hat for some reason.

That pedophile fallout guy in the 3rd post is a fucking weirdo though.
 
Well like everyone I torture Sims. Other than that, every now and then I will go into Halo 1 on the first level, Kill Captain Keys, and then proceed to brutally murder every single person and alien on that ship. Nobody ever knows what hit them.

Most of my time in TF2 is spent uber-teasing. convince a heavy or demo or soldier that you're going to uber them and then bail right as they enter a chokehold or whatever.

Also fun: counter-productive teleporters.

Metal Gear Online was a real treat for griefers. You could choke out your own teammate, then just as they regained consciousness a minute and a half later, shoot them in the head. all while wearing leopard-print speedos and rocking a magnum p.i. mustache. I loved that game.
 
You know you wanted this post. Life just wouldn't be complete without it. When a game allows you to host a teaparty with dead naked people as your guests, this post is almost demanded. (I'm still working on the teaparty. I'm having a little trouble getting these bodies to conform to my will. I think I might try doing it with the lizard people. That way, I can stick their tail in between the back and seat of the chair and anchor them in pl - okay, time to stop thinking about it.)

My character is pretty stealth-focused, with skills in Sneak, Security, Light Armour, Blade, and a couple other ones I forget. My goal in this game is to join the Thieves Guild and the Dark Brotherhood. I've known for quite some time that I need to kill an innocent to get into the latter, but so far I haven't found anyone worthy enough (until today!). There's a few snotty NPCs I considered slaughtering in their sleep, but I knew I wouldn't get much satisfaction in that. So I went on a journey. If I was to become a murderer, I wanted my act to mean something. I wanted it to be symbolic. It became apparent to me that Oblivion suffers from a terrible lack of attractive female NPCs. So I promised myself that the moment I met one, she would be my mark, my tribute to the Dark Brotherhood.

I found her in Burma. For many days I watched her. Each morning I would enter the inn, take a seat, and enjoy some breakfast. Whenever I felt brave enough, I would look away from my companion and take a peek at her. She was quite social, my Lyra. Like a little butterfly, hovering from table to table and exchanging the latest news. For instance, did you know that the Fighters Guild was recruiting? I didn't, until I met Lyra.



I only spoke to her once, the last day of her life. She didn't seem to like me very much. I gave her a lot of money, and then she liked me more. Her smile made me happy - but was she only smiling because I had lined her pockets with gold? If so, she was a prostitute. My heart was broken. I made a decision that the **** would die that very night.

I stepped outside into the cold, frosty air and loitered around for a few hours. When nightfall finally came, I stole away to the stables and quickly retrieved my horse. If something went wrong, I would need a quick exit. I tied Glueboy to a tree just outside the city walls and went back inside. Lyra was still at work and her door was locked. I considered breaking in and waiting in a closet, but something told me that was the wrong way to go about things.

Late in the evening, my darling Lyra finally left the inn and went home. I followed. I waited for an hour or two, not wanting to catch her undressing or within earshot of my breakin. The undressing would come later.



Five lockpicks later, I was inside. Her house was immaculate, just like her. I crept around the first floor and took a flowerpot. I decided I would put it on her grave. I listened to the ringing from the church down the road. It was midnight. In the gloom of her house, I sat down and ate her leftovers. After I was done, I snuck upstairs and found her sleeping on the grandest bed I had seen to that point.





She was beautiful. I stripped off my clothing and sat down across from her, mesmerized by the delicate movement of her bosom as she breathed her last breaths. After a little while I began to lose track of time. Before long, she began to stir. Realzing this was my chance, I removed my dagger and struck her with it. How she fought! She staggered to the bottom of the stairs and ran toward the front door. I couldn't have that! I drained her stamina with my Greater Power and she fell to the ground. Moments later she was dead.



Beside myself with passion, I began to undress her, exposing long, regal limbs. After making love to her, I thought she felt a little cold. Trying to warm her up, I dragged her body to the fireplace.



And then I ate her.

Funny, but I like how you never mention what game this is.
 

For all I know the scientists in the Facility level of N64's GoldenEye could have been on the verge of discovering the Higgs Boson in 1997. It didn't matter. Every time I played that level I murdered them in cold blood for some reason. Something about those white coats. If killing virtual scientists in GoldenEye was a crime, I'd probably would have been tried and executed for being a war criminal.



Which leads to the next natural evoultion. Pro-tip: If you are going to release a demo of MGS2 and you can stick up all the guards and they react realistically to me shooting them in both arms and legs before shooting them in the nuts - I'm probably going to do it. I spent more time doing this than playing ZOE. And I feel dirty now when I think back on it.
 
In Red Dead Redemption I saved up money to buy the fastest horse but I was a few dollars short. So I took my old horse outside town, shot it in the head and skinned it to sell so I could afford the better one.

I worked for the slavers in fallout 3, but in the end I decided to free everyone I had captured.

Edit: actually oblivion dark brotherhood was probably the worst I have ever done in a game.

pk'd so many people in diablo 2 back in the day when you could hostile them everywhere anytime. I'd drop items around their corpse so they would accidentally click on them when trying to retrieve their body and their inventory would get full.

This was back when you could only leave one corpse and if you die, your equipped items would have to go back into inventory or if it's full, your equipped items would scatter all over the ground for anyone to grab. I felt guitly, but I got a lot of good items this way.

I also used the Sorc's telekinesis ability to snatch items people dropped on the ground from far away when there were games where players dared each other to drop unique items and pick it up right away.

Use to play Jim types back when Resident Evil Outbreak file 1 and 2 were still playable online. High viral rate but he had a skill that basically kept his ass alive from anything.
Well on file 2 there is a stage called end of the road, which is the easiest stage on 2 to complete at higher difficulties.

Anyway I would usually try and sometimes succeed at getting at least 1 to 2 members of my group killed before the level ended. Because during a zombie apoc, someone has got to die.

Also did the same shit in l4d when playing with at least 1 friend and randoms.
 
I would usually grief other players in World of Warcraft whenever possible. That's probably the worst thing I've ever done.

I was a badass warlock and had no problems killing multiple players of the opposite faction even if they were the same level as me... and if they were in MY farming location, well... I made sure they got the fuck out.
 
Back in the days I played a free MMORPG (Endless Online if I remember correctly) and found out a twisted way to make money. It was played from isometric view and you could only move in 4 directions. So there were many narrow spaces where you were able to trap other players by standing on the right spot. You couldn't push or walk through anyone and if you relogged you'd just spawn in the same exact spot you quitted in. I required 50-100 gold or else I wouldn't move. Got rich pretty quickly but I felt really bad afterwards haha.

Oh yes, Spec Ops: The Line too.

I sold a shield to a guy in EverQuest for a ton of money, because the display picture was identical to some rare fancy glowy-effect shield. I knew the one I sold didn't glow. I pocketed the cash and felt pretty horrible about it.

For what it's worth, I'm sorry, dude. I probably spent that money we... oh, wait, I forgot that was around the time when I was gambling with this drunken Dwarf from my guild who had a little gambling obsession.
 
In the beginning of fallout 3 where butch asks you to save his mother, since I remembered how much of a bully he was to me, not only did I not save her, but I killed him, cut off his head, arms, and legs, and dumped each part in a different toilet. Nobody bullies me and gets away with it.

Just discovered Postal 2 thanks to this thread...

Fallout 2 allowed to do really nasty stuff, but i am usually a good person while playing. I always end up having a halo on Fable :) Unless it's GTA or this Postal 2... Hell yeah let's blow up some heads.

In fallout 3 i recall betraying and killing the slavers when i had to deliver the girl, but i can't remember a lot from that game. Played it at release and had so many bugs on PS3 i had to stop playing... Was it possible to detonate the nuclear bomb at the first village? I always wondered that...
 
There was a task in Black & White where I had to search for a villager's ill husband who was lost in the forest. I found him but failed to arrive back in time to save him. The wife was obviously upset and angrily gave my my reward which was a large stone pillar. So I decided to smash apart her house with the pillar then picked her up and threw her into the sea. That was all me doing this, not my giant pet gorilla.

I just smashed the house until they gave me my stone. Afterwards I found the dead kid and showed them the body. You don't give fetch quests to an old testament motherfucker like me.

The sims. Let everyone swim in the pool and then take away the steps.

Or if I was really bored I'd not finish roller coasters in RCT and just make it really high and just watch what happens

That is awesome. :D

How did you kill the boss without him going through the fog wall?
 
The worst thing i've ever done was in WoW. My rogue was so close to 100 mounts and it was Brewfest. Queued up, got in and fought the boss only for him to drop the Direbrew Ram, no biggie, right? Everyone wants the Kodo anyway, well I already had the Kodo from the previous year and really wanted that Ram to up my overall mount count. Needless to say, I lost the roll. The fucker that won the ram immediately starts asking us if anyone wants to buy it for some obscene amount of gold for the time. We have the next player summon the boss, down him and bam. Kodo drops. I think to myself, fuck this group, i'm rolling...and win.

Immediately, I tell the guy who won the ram to trade me the ram for the Kodo and he does. I felt like a real goddamn Rogue at that time.

Alatreon-DragonCharge.jpg


When we hit HR 50 (myself and two other friends) we found a HR 250+ to help us beat Alatreon. He did really well and we killed it after about 40 minutes.

Then he felvine bombed us while we were trying to carve, we didn't get a single carve.

The only time I've done something really bad (that I had a choice in), was in spec ops when
you get surrounded by an angry mob after they kill one of your teammates and I gunned them down. Not even just one just to scare them off, I killed like a dozen of them. It was only while watching LPs of it later that I realised you could have shot into the air to scare them off.
I felt like shit after that. That game put me in a wierd headspace.
