when I was about 16 during an online match of Medal of Honor Allied Assault, I was so dialed-in with the bolt-action rifle that I got kicked for cheating.

I got kicked so many times in Quake II Rocket Arena for the same reaaon that I got fed up and started my own clan and stood up my own server. Which is actually how I got my current alias in here. [Crack] Happy

My favorite fps achievement took place in Halo on the Xbox. We did the thing to play online and during an online ctf match I was on point with the sniper rifle. The match was tied up for flag captures and we were in a stalemate for a bit. The other team managed to get our flag and were running it back. As I'm in my sniper spot trying to line up the shot they all jumped at nearly the same time right into my sights. I take the shot and head shot every one of them... Except for the flag carrier because they apparently jumped just a tiny bit ahead of the others and dropped just enough to go under the bullet.

The entire lobby was going nuts over that last sniper shot. Even though we lost it was the talk of the match. The loss sucked but that shot was amazing. I quit playing for the day after that... No way was I going to top it so I left on a high.

I had the same thing happen in Battlefield 1942 when I built up the skill of shooting the tank’s main gun to hit planes in midair. It’s not as hard as it sounds, it sends a righteous thrill of victory through your entire body, and it makes you look like a cheater. Great stuff

this wasn't even something that I was usually particularly good at, I just happened to be doing everything right for like one game. I understood why they thought I was cheating, I was winning one-on-one duels in small rooms against guys who had like mp44s with a single headshot
