[List] The moment you really felt like a noob...

[Welshboy]

Flying the attack huey on Muttrah, i had survived untill the cobra spawned and i was rearming at the carrier, as i got to take off i turn left and see the cockpit of the cobra.

[Raufbold]

Warming up the Attack Huey on Muttrah and misplace my hand on the keyboard one key to the left (no space between arrow left and control). As a result, i did a nice half barrel roll into the sea instead of taking off. Happened on a few other occasions too.

Definately the first time I tried to taxi a jet on Quinling without knowing how to taxi a jet.

[Ccharge]

oh lemme think...

probably the time i was flying a full loaded merlin on basrah in 0.7, i was flying over the insurgent village when my helo gets opened up on. I decide to try to avoid gunfire by flying side to side but instead of pressing the d key i press the e key. My fully loaded merlin plumits into the ground killing that squad and the apc it lands on. My team got really pissed so i didnt bother telling them about the mistake.

When my squad swam from the carrier to docks in muttrah, took a good 15 mins....

This was a bad one...happened tonight.

I decided to get really gacked on some painkillers I had because I was bored and having trouble sleeping these past few nights...cue to playing on Seven Gates as the PLA.

My SL had assigned me a role as rifleman AT which I was all too happy to fulfill. We sprint up to a ridge to try and provide overwatch to the village and the river fort, where my first noob mistake happened. My team starts shooting and a FULLY LOADED supply truck turns around and drives back and I didn't even see it until it was cresting the ridge back. My squad deservedly gave me a "wtf shoot him what were you doing" over VoIP, but it wasn't really a big deal.

To no one's surprise we end up getting pushed back inside of Rvier Fort, and I spot a transport coming from the village racing across the lakebed and I put a well-placed rocket into its side, destroying it, and the poor PLA driver driving it. I apologize profusely, since I'm relatively new to .85 (PR vet from since .4 but college was demanding my time) and the domed canopies of these trucks confuse me.

At this point, I'm embarrassed but stuff happens so I reload and take another position. River Fort is now under crippling suppressing fire from the north-northwest as the Brits deploy SAW gunners and markmen to devastating effect and all friendlies in the base are scrambling for cover. I pop my head up and see a trooper running across our former rally point holding a weapon, and since both the L8 and QZ are bullpup designs, I thought he was an enemy. Since having lowered my texture filtering I couldn't see his helmet or much of anything, so I fired another rocket....turns out he was the driver I had accidentally tk'ed earlier.

At this point I'm face-palming in my computer chair and repeatedly spam "sorry" in the commo-rose. I reload and vow to check my targets more carefully. A couple minutes later I pop my head up since the suppression fire is getting worse and the Brits are flanking us from the south, and see two soldiers in dark green, one of which has a weapon with a bi-pod and is looking directly towards the river fort. Thinking this was one of those bastard SAW gunners that was giving us hell, I launched another rocket, killing the same guy AGAIN with his brand new LMG and his squadmate. I left the server in utter shame and disgust with myself.

Whoever that may have been, please forgive me. It may have seemed like I was griefing you, but I'm just an idiot. Sorry man.

Flying in Kashan whit a F16 when im typing a text message i realize at the point when i press E i hadnt activated the chat. then i just fall to the ground whit a parachute and dissconnect ;P

[Penga]

When my Mi-28 Havoc lost a 1v1 with an Abrams because I missed with the hellfire equivalent.

[Challenger 2 SWE]

On Kozelsk i was a little bit separated from the rest of my squad in a forest acting as a flank sentry.
Suddenly a Millitiaman with a AK-47 walked past my tree 30 meters away and i thought i could kill him without a firefight.
so i run up behind him and when i´m 10 meters away i got my sights up and WITHOUT waiting for the weapon to settle i fired a 4 shot burst... i missed. He gets down on the ground turns around and easily hits me as i´m still standing up. So even with the element of surprise i do an epic fail in a small scale.

So always knife people when you have an enemy that hasn´t seen you or wait for your weapon to settle.
