Funniest thing? Lets see... Aside from the planet / mine field ramming AI and the dumb police AI...

Well, I made a jump hole once to cut down a long trade route (I call it the Tokyo to New Berlin express) . The first time I tried using it I was put in queue... Those bastards... taking advantage of my hard (2 minute) work... So I shot those guys till they turned into a burning fireball.

The first time I killed someone with a cruise disruptor.

Or trying to do dock with the docking ring the "easy" way, nudges the edge of the ring and lands the "hard" way.

Gaians targets in a lowly startracker saying "You are out of my league!"

Me? I'm in a full blown Sabre...

Mr Bill forgot to put in some AI that goes "He's too strong, lets get out of here and regroup.." Well..the pie didn't missed him anyway

Hit your enemy when they are down
Hit your enemy when they surrender
Hit your enemy when they can't fight no more

hmmm, mollys dying constantly by their own mines in the minefield which they lay out to protect themselves...?

Using a Sunslayer torpedo on a Starflier in point blank range along with 5 Firestalker missles too!!! my screen rocked so much, the loot was about 1k from where the ship blew up...(dammit i got some splash damage from the missles and the torpedo)... i reckon i inflicted about 20k damage plus.... lol

New York System: Followed a Rogue Mule out of Rochester. The guy went to the Fort Bush<->Colorado Jumpgate trade lane, docked with it and flew all the way to the Jumpgate. Surprise Surprise. The weirdo used the Jumpgate to make it to Colorado.

Ok, there a very nice and much safer Jumphole in the debries field for them and they always brag about that that it's their main advantage, so you expect them to use that then but nooooooo, this one wanted to do it the hard way I guess...

I keep seeing UN-AIs flying into planet Manhattan and blowing up.

If I had a nickel for every time someone told me that my idea of building a giant robotic parrot out of melted down coins was a bad idea, I would have one kick a$$ giant robotic parrot.

About ever time i get out of one of the Natural Jump Holes in the Omega - ** Areas.

There are about 7 or 8 Titans always there to greet me. Screen appears and before i can even gain control of the ship ive lost my shield! Damn i gotta get good with the Corsairs.

By the way does anyone know where theres a bribe so i can actually make the Corsairs like me? Id really like to explore the areas.

on one of the servers i've played on there's a known greifer. he likes to shoot you with his lvl 10 weapons as you dock, or spawn kill lower level people over and over.

well, while cruising through the border systems i took a jumphole and low and behold the griefer is there in an eagle along with a titan equipped friend of his in a huge furball with a swarm of bounty hunter hammerheads. since he actually is quite a skilled pilot, he seemed to be doing pretty well.

until i started plinking him with a combo of tizona, nomad, cerb fire. didn't kill him mind you, just dropped his shields and cruise disrupted his greifer a** as the npc bounty hunters pecked him apart.

Myself and a few peeps were in MP outside of cadiz base, we're all friendly with corsairs, checking out everyone's loadouts and testing weapon fire. One of them goes to dock and I launched a sunslayer up his rear to test out the shield damage.....

He docks, the sunslayer hits Cadiz base (omega5) and without warning the base turns read and 10 titans with their lvl9 salamanca's want me! I couldn't go back into omega5 for a while, a good while at that too!

Scenario 2 - same place, dumb self fires wildfire with nomads to have a look at the lightshow - something hits cadiz base and they all turn on me again!

Both happened within 2 days of each other!

me and a mate are in bretonia attacking some battleship in mp for a laff in our titans, my mate has a 500K bounty on his head because he got a little pk happy and some other guy arrives and opens fire (looking to take him down while he's distracted with the police and bretonia armed forces/military etc to make a cool 500K) He engages the other player and kills him with an army of ships on his tail and i was sitting there laughing my ass off watching when, he cruises past me, the entirety of bretonia opens fire on me and before I could press B, was dead!

My favourite is probably when guys get into formation with you on the inside of a planet as your passing, you hit goto and he hits the planets surface.......

Then again, there's nothing like getting a full shipment of diamonds and crashing into the planet :/ (my first day playing freelancer after acquiring my humpback)

1. getting up to get a snack while a swarm of rogues helplessly attacks my eagle.

2. watching an AI shoot itself down with its own missile.

3. watching two AIs run into each other at cruise speed and blow up.

4. getting shot down by a wingman's torpedo

Reaper: $200,000,000.
Rockets: $100,000
The look on that pilot's face when you launch a full pod of screamers up his tailpipe: priceless

Sometimes I hear they ask for more... yes, "more" (??!??)

Newark station this is Police bla blah blah
I request for more...

Police bla blah blah, this is newark station.
Your request for more is granted.
Please proceed to more 3.

?? WTF ?

I've never noticed that before but here:

moor

\Moor\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. Moored; p. pr. & vb. n. Mooring. [Prob. fr. D. marren to tie, fasten, or moor a ship. See Mar. 1. (Naut.)

I watched a ship skimming the atmosphere of Manhattan, and right before he blew up he said, "what the? uh ah ah".. Now that was funny.
