Don't say 'lag' or 'bailing KT', just post up minor annoyances that seem to keep happening to you. A few of mine are -
Being shot by someone you can see in your scope, just because they were a fraction of a second faster. Even more humbling when they aren't using a scoped rifle.
Getting knifed/shoveled while using a scout kit, which your killer then steals (meaning it won't respawn/won't respawn as fast).
Lazy teammates. At the top flag on Gazala last night, and Farticus rolls up to my position (not knowing I'm there) in a Crusader. He was there for roughly ten minutes, just mindlessly shooting things, while I relentlessly requested anti-tank support and air support. No one responded (about 30 people online) and I sat there in hiding watching plane after plane take off from our airfield, and it was not until I was the victim of a shot in the dark from the Crusader did someone finally ask me where he was. Naturally, almost every plane after that was shot down by the AA gun there.
Teammates that hitch a ride in your tank, then relentlessly fire the machine gun constantly. Annoying both because you can't hear any enemy tanks, but they certainly can hear and see you.
Teammates that hitch a ride in your StuG. Assuming you all know this, but the 3rd position in the StuG as a vehicle gives you a perfect 360 degree view of the battlefield, and also gives you the benefit of having your engine off and not making any noise. Naturally, should someone else be riding in your StuG as you're driving it, and you go to the 3rd spot to have a look around, they immediately hop into the first spot and drive off.
People that steal vehicles you're repairing.
People that try to hide with you when you're spotting arty or sniping.
When some jerkoff in a jeep drives past everybody on Arnhem and caps the last flag.
The lame ambient sounds on Charlie Sector. Also, when some Americans cap the last flag there, now that I think about it.
Spammed radio commands.
People that claim the Faust/Schrek/Bazooka/PIAT are 'impossible to aim'.
People that don't understand the difference between tank destroyers, tanks, and artillery.
When the Lee Enfield No 4 is the only scoped rifle available to me. Just looks goofy.
What are some of yours?
