Waterskiin' Behind Convoy!

[Monkeybits]

Now, we've all taken a creative fall off of Convoy. That's one of the joys of the map. Now it's time to post some of them, or any other entertaining death (Bubbles wishes she had known how to do screenshots when she ended up hanging from her pyro mask from back bridge of Convoy). Here are a few of mine.

OSHA would not approve of the rails on this bus!

Think I'm down! Think again! Stand still and I'll get you.

Sun sure is nice back here. I'll just soak up some rays.

That's right, I'm about a hundred yards off of red's port bow. Wanna know how I flew so far? Think unexpected sentry gun.

I don't have screens, but I have a hilarious Convoy story. I managed to infiltrate the enemy base and grab the intel. I ran for my life back to my side, but was killed halfway across the bridge. One of my friends went and grabbed the intel but was immediately pelted with rockets and stickybombs, so he flew off the map a few hundred feet. I searched for the intel to continue running it back, only to find it way out off the map, skating along at the same rate as the trucks.

Hah! I've seen that happen before. In fact, I once saw a sentry gun built in the middle--naturally it didn't last long. There's a lot of magic to that map.

I've got a few good screens (been collecting them) on my computer at home. I'll try to remember to post them.

One of my favorite death screens, however, I previously posted under a different thread.

In terms of the farthest knockback I've ever seen, it was when a scout, at his peak of his double jump, was machine-gunned back by a sentry. I wish I got the screenshot. He was like a rainbow trailing off the convoy before, of course, his inevitable death on the ground.

As a scout you can get in front of the train things, if you keep jumping you should be able to fight the force pulling you back and get in front.

But once you're down there jumping around you're stuck, and if you touch one of the trains you die.

 

[SubArtic]

OO oh noes but i see a bunch of people do that and the only problem other than that is when people see you then decide to take you down hehe

 

[The IRS]

Heh, awesome, oh and as a scout I have kept up with the train for a few second before i died.

 

[Monkeybits]

I'd end up dead trying that, but I bet I could get some great screenshots.

Another lovely day on Convoy. Just riding along, the breeze in my face and the heat of the sentry barrel keeping me warm.

Of course, they found me eventually. So I went hunting for a better hiding place.

Hey guys, wait up!

From the immortal SNL sketch with Mike Meyers, "Are you lookin' at me bum? Bum looka. Cheeky monkey!"

Haha. I've been the guy to drop it there. Their intel was out in the open. I got a medic to charge me up. Rocket jumped on top of the rocket. Jumped onto the intel. Immediately rocket jumped back out of there before getting pelted, and... I misjudged my r-jump, went too far, and landed somewhere in between the trucks, leaving the intel on the ground to follow in the trucks' wakes.

The plan was to rjump back onto the rocket and hightail it out of there, but you know what they say about the best laid plans...
