So last night in Gravelpit I was playing medic. The round had just started and I had just filled my uber. I was attached to a pyro and we were camping out under the left hand (as a defender) exit from blue's spawn on the way to CP B. A HUGE group of un-ubered enemies was just dropping right in front of us, and I was going to hit the uber and some havoc was going to be caused. It was going to be brilliant.
However, right as my finger was hovering over my right mouse button, my Java applet decided it needed to update itself. TF2 went into windowed mode and I lost all control over it, as Java put itself in the foreground. So, rather than a beautiful uber with many kills, I was forced to watch in the background as a grenade blasted me into oblivion while I desperately tried to click off the Java applet and back into the game. Two seconds later my computer just froze, and I realized that that was probably it for the night for me....
Stupid Java....
 
i actually have that happen a lot when it comes to updating my AV's...sorry to hear that man even though that is pretty funny
 
man that sucks. i always go in msconfig and turn off java, adobe, and all other updates before startup
 
I've had that happen a number of times. My stupid spy sweeper whatchamacallit pops up a window, and it really enjoys closing everything else, INCLUDING MY TF2 GAME!!! Fortunately, I wasn't in the middle of heavy fire, but one of these days, it'll happen, I guarantee you.
 
Ah - the one that drives me nuts is someone will ping me on google chat/talk while I am in game, which occasionally drops me from the game to the app - while in game. Ghah...
 
ouch.... This used to happen to me a lot but with Norton AV scan. For some reason I kept leaving it for later (got rid of it)

yet your situation was already setup for some serious ownage ...gotta love those moments...aaah.
 
I was able to laugh about it as soon as I was able to dislodge my mouse from the wall, where I had hurled it...
 
thats terrible. I've been a cloaked spy when my keyboard ran out of batteries... that wasn't much fun.
 
What's worse is when you click the uber button the instant a sniper shoots you in the head.
 
hahah i hate when something like that happens. oh wait that just reminds me i havent installed JAva on this PC yet. thanks =D.
 
Dude, for a while, right after we had put the radio plugin on some of our servers, my game would freeze for like 10 seconds every couple minutes. It would freeze at the absolute worst times evar, like as i'm capping a point, and an enemy is coming to contest..... Freeze...... 10 seconds later, I'm back in spawn. Blarrgh.
 
Once in while, I pwn as pyro, a lot of enemies on fire, and then: Virus check complete. Game crash to desktop >:(
