For me, it was in Prey. The situation was this, I had just finished getting through the single player campaign on normal difficulty. I'd just also gotten a gold memebership so I could watch netflix through my x-box. Anyway, I decide to try a Prey multiplayer game. And I'm not usually into multiplayer death matches.
Anyway, the host set up rules so that we started with just the wrench I think, and I didn't know the map at all. No idea where weapons are and such. That, and the other seven people are hogging all the weapons. So when I spot a grav pathway I take to the ceiling. I'm creaping along the ceiling looking for everyone, hoping no one thinks to look up. I drop to the ground when I have to, but go vertical every chance I get. Anyway, no one else ever thinks to watch from above. I keep dropping behind people and clubbing them to death with my wrench, then taking their gun. Just to prove a point, I take them all out with nothing but the wrench.
Of course, then there was my first multiplayer match in The Darkness.
After playing through on normal I'm feeling decent about my skills. I decide to test them against others. After joining a match where the goal is to be the human (darklings become the human if they kill the human). I start out as human myself. Now I should mention, I am not a 'run-n-gun' type FPS guy, even though I can do it. Rather, I like to take my time, use cover to my advantage, and change position after firing a few shots so I don't get flanked. Thus Gears of War suits me well. Anyway I find some cover, and bunker down. Shortly after that, I see all the other players bum rushing me. Without even poking my head out from cover, I start popping their heads. Afterwards while they respawn I move to a different spot, one where I have an arial view of where I had just been. Again they bumrush where I was, only to get confused apparantly by my lack of being there. I fire off a few rounds, dropping two of them. Then I high tail it out of there to set up a new ambush spot. All this time I'm just using the duel pistols.
I think I seriously cheesed them off with those tactics. They I guess expected me to run around like a chicken with it's head cut off.
Fear not the fae, they are harmless. Anger not the fae, fear their wraith. Kill not the fae, Beware the Faerie Knight.
