What funny/random moments have you seen?

-I shot a buck that was running full speed, and it flew threw the air, plowing into a random guy walking by, killing him.

-I shot a deer and it slid down the side of a very steep tall high. I hopped off my horse to skin the deer, and I slid down as well, barely surviving. After I found and skinned the deer, I whistled to my horse (a nice $750 golden one) hoping it would find it's away around down to me. I hear a loud nay, and look up to see a horse leaping to it's death.

-I discovered that cougars don't like being teabagged. I got attacked by one and narrowly managed to kill it before it killed me. For a laugh (my girlfriend was watching me play) I went to teabag it's dead body. Out of nowhere, another cougar flies at me and knocks me over. I managed to kill that one, and then skin it. I go back to the first cougar to commence operation teabag, when out of nowhere, again, another cougar tackles me!

-I stopped to help a lady needing help at a horse carriage on the side of the road. Surprise, ambush. I kill all her thugs, and as she begs me not to kill her, I hogtied her and threw on my horse. I then took her to the train tracks and dumped her there, and watched the train make her go splat. The surprising part? There's actually an achievement for doing exactly that.

-Funny glitch or something. I shot a deer and flew 20 feet or so straight up in the air.

-Pushed a prostitute down a flight of stairs. Euphoria is fun.

-Not really funny or random, but I found that if you draw your weapon on someone, they will draw theirs as well. They'll even start that little talk that you see in stand off moments in movies. If you back off, they will back off as well. I dunno.... That's just so real to me. It's like the NPC AI can actually rationalize instead of just going ballistic anytime you brandish a gun, even after you've holstered it.

So, let's get some stories going! I love reading this stuff!

it's a pornography store. i was buying pornography.

I don't know if somebody already mentioned it, but outside Casa Madrugada, there was this guy hurting this lady, and yeah I acted as a good boyscout and hogtied the attacker, then she came and said "

"Muchas gracias señor, ya debería saber que nos e le debe decir a un hombre que tiene una verga pequeña" - or something like that -

Being latin, listening to spanish in a game is a treat, and that phrase caught me absolutely off guard, it means:

"Thanks a lot mister, i should know by now I should never tell a guy that he has a small pr1ck" -yeah in english it may not be so funny but I can guarantee you any guy whose first language is spanish got shocked and then laughed hysterically.

Other than that... I'm sure most of them were mentioned :P

lol, makes me wish I knew what they were saying more.

Last week I was online, joined a random posse hoping to get the point achievement and played through fort mercer. There was my posse and some random guy doing the hideout and after it finished we all lined up waiting for the marker to be put down. The line ups, I think, are pretty cool - and the random guy obviously thought so too, and being only level 3/4 or something, joined the line up, standing right next to the posse leader. We were stood for about 30 seconds and out of no-where the posse leader just turned and shot the head of the guys horse and then rode off. It probably doesn't sound that great but it was the funniest thing I have ever seen on the game. The poor guy spent the next twenty minutes just chasing him down trying to kill him only to die everytime. Poor fella.

Right after I met the Strange Man in "I know you" for the first time. Right above the cliff overlooking Armadillo I whistled at my horse. Then I saw a wild horse I decided to break. "Great" I thought and lassoed it. Then my horse comes running and manages to push the other horse of the cliff and me, still attached with the lasso, is dragged straight down after it. And just as I go over the cliff my horse follows.

All three of us fell very stylishly into our respective deaths.

I whistled for my horse in Thieves Landing, and it ran under the Dixon Crossing Bridge and drowned.

I was hunting some animal and I got attacked by a cougar. Before I could get up to shoot said cougar, a boar came out of nowhere and killed me. Teamwork.

-I had just come across a woman in Mexico pleading for help, (the 4 man ambush) I shot her four cohorts dead with Dead Eye Buffalo Rifle shots to the face, and then lassoed and hogtied the woman. I threw her on my trusty steed and took off for a place off the main trails where we could get better aquianted. (Equates to me either shooting her point blank in the face, burning her alive or something equally cruel) So we ride off the main trail and I come across a woman crying over the blood soaked corpse of her husband. I just sit on my horse with my victim struggling behind me, and the crying woman drinks a vial of poison and passes over dead! I get off my horse, remove my victim and lay her lasooed body next to the dead woman and bloody man. Then I shot one round from my Schoffield Revolver into her ankle. As she lay screaming next to the two other bodies, I retrieved a fire bottle from my inventory and tossed it at all three of them, burning the injured woman alive and BBQ'ing the other two corpses.

-I've also lasooed people, drug them a few hundred feet to rough them up a bit and then hogtied and threw them on my horse. Then I take off for Wolf/Cougar/Bear territory. I put my hogtied victim in a place where I have a good vantage from a nearby distance, and then proceed to cover them in Bait. Then I back off and let mother nature runs it's course. ( Wild Animals mauling and biting hogtied victims covered in bait! LOL)

Last night I saw a bear attacking a campsite outside Beecher's Hope. It eventually got killed by the sole survivor. As he ran away he got attacked by another bear. I began to look around, and saw the field I was in was literally covered in bears and boars. Pretty frightening.

Well I just executed Nigel West Dickens.

It was just after completing the mission where you are chased out of Plainview and you have to shoot whilst riding shotgun as he drives the stagecoach. You finish the mission at Cueva Seca where there's this little camp and cave where presumably West Dickens is living, and when the mission ends the stagecoach is still there, as is West Dickens, ready to do the next West Dickens mission. Earlier I had had a shoot out with Seth before going over his mission marker, I was unable to kill him of course, especially since he shot back. But this time I decided to see what would happen if I shot at West Dickens. Initially it doesn't let you, so I used the shotgun which of course blasts pellets everywhere.

I just fired in his general direction, whilst he was taking a leak (when you start that mission he is taking a leak). And then he got all scared, I ran to him, making sure not to go over the yellow cross/mission marker, and pressed RT whilst real close to him with the shotgun, and it actually let me execute him. Amazing! It did the shotgun under chin and fire up into their head execution, and a huge exit wound appeared at the top of his head. But what's really funny is this...

...he survived. After it did the mini execution cut scene, West Dickens just ran off, now with blood all about his mouth and throat. It reminded me of Kim Coates in Black Hawk Down after having his legs blown off, when there's blood all over his mouth area and it reminded me of jam cos' of his stubble. It also reminded me of a zombie that had just feasted, how in the films they usually have blood all around their mouth after eating someone. After chasing him for about twenty seconds he just stopped and started walking casually back to the camp as well, and then I shot at him again and he started to run again. Real bad dementia the guy must have.

Recently re-bought the game having originally got it when it first came out. I cant remember anything particular from the first time round but was playing the other day and ha just finished a Marshall job which involved a load of guys on a high ridge and you take cover in a small dilapidated out house. Anyway I killed all the guys and finished the mission then ran around collecting loot from all the bodies, all of a sudden I get shot, a quick look round and there's no one to be seen so I keep looting, again I get shot so I get on my horse and look in all directions-nothing. So I slowly trot around and start getting shot more and more, there are no enemies visible on the map, I ride around the entire area I'm in looking for enemies and nothing still, I go up a hill amongst cacti and more bullets follow, including one that shoots off one of the cactus arms. At this point I couldn't be bothered playing anymore and put Pro Evo on..........

Yesterday I saved a woman from being kidnapped in Thieves Landing. Behind John's back I could see a carriage flying through the air and landing in the water, two horses survived and walked out of the water. The others died.

- Had a guy and his horse stuck in the ground.

- Saw a whore fall off a balcony.

- In multiplayer, me and a friend were riding around on our horses when suddenly he and his horse just fly up in the air. He couldnt go anywhere so I shot his horse, which resulted in him dying because of the fall.

Just witnessed a cougar go on a rampage in Tall Trees...

I was roaming around out there looking for a bear to burn with my torch when I spot a sasquatch. He didn't see me but for some reason he just kneeled down. I was about to shoot it in the face when a cougar comes out of nowhere and kills my undead horse and I fall off. The cougar then immediately runs towards the sasquatch which was about 20 feet away and kills it. Then it turns around and comes back to pounce on me and I died. It was pretty intense.

Had a crazy bounty mission recently in Tall Trees.
Managed to hogtie the guy and put him on my horse. As I was heading back to town, the first wave of his gang attacks. Fended them off, and continued into town. Suddenly a wild boar comes out of nowhere and attacks my horse, knocking the bounty off onto the ground. Second wave of gang members come riding in! So for a few seconds, it's complete chaos as I try to fend off the gang and the crazy boar attacking me while picking the guy back up, whistling for my frightened horse and trying to get him back to town! Somehow, I managed, but my heart was racing and palms were sweating.

Encountered a stranger, a woman, whose cart is stolen. I go after it and bring it back, then while she's thanking me she gets attacked by coyotes, so I shoot the animals but me firing the gun scares the woman and she runs away and I get a mission failed message, so in anger I go berserk on the coyotes but suddenly my horse walks in front of me as I fire a shot and the bullet goes straight through its head.

[–] MaroonSerpent 12 years ago

Another stranger mission. Lawman's cart broke down, horses killed by rattle snake. Two prisoners escape, he asks me to catch them. I shoot the first one, then rope the other one and bring him back. Lawman thanks me, I turn around to get back on my horse, I hear a gunshot. I turn around, second prisoner has been shot in the head and the lawman is running away. So unexpected.

I cleaned out Fort Mercer, then did some challenges and finally went looking for Irish at the ferry. So I made camp nearby to save. When I got up again, a stranger mission started like two feet away from me and this guy walks right in front of me, so I draw and start shooting, except I completely miss the guy but suddenly Irish and West in the distance start shooting at ME! So I guess I accidentally hit them or something, so I hurry around in a circle trying to get closer, trying to avoid their bullets until I reach the dock and the cutscene starts and of course Irish and West act like nothing happened lol!

"I shot a buck that was running full speed, and it flew threw the air,"

WAT THAT MEAN

And what's euphoria. THANKS.

Yeah about the whole "drawing a weapon and people freak out" thing, I was walking to my room and the prostitute said "Hey cowboy, let me see them guns" so I took out my HUGE gun, the double barrelled it was, and I pointed it at her and she screamed.

Kindof reminds me of a similar scenario in real life.

You probably know about this guy in thieves landing who is my no.1 enemy because he say I short and is mean to me in liar's dice, I beat him in liar's dice, got up and blasted his face off and was subsequently shot by everyone in the room.

We weren't even, so that was the beginning of our enemyship.

I kill him all the time, in the tailor store (which he very poorly owns). First time I did that, tried to rob him and the stuck up prick tried to shoot at me and run away instead of give me the money, so killed him on the spot, and took the money (all 6 bucks of it).

Sometimes I go back to Thieves Landing just to try out my new weapons/killing techniques on him. The dynamite is good, so is the fire bottle. I've killed him in all manner of manners. Plus I beat him up with my fists, and learned you can punch in different ways depending on how you move the left stick, so that was useful.

Wish I had a montage for all the times I killed that sonofabitchtailor. Did I mention he never says anything nice ? It's either something insulting or nothing atall.

Next time I will tell you about how I have bad luck with wagons, I drive the stagecoach and take my eye of the road for a second and it flies off the road and crashes into a .... not a hole, a.... a low point , no, aa.... well you know what I mean !

It goes off the road, flies down the air and slams into the ground killing all the horses. I don't even mean to, it just happens ! Sometimes it happens as soon as I get the wagon "Yay I've got a wagon HOLY *beep* LOOK AT THAT CLIFF EDGE! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO - CRASH!!!! !!! Why does this always happen to me ?"

I love having one of them small wagons but it never lasts, always getting capsized. Gotta kill the horse as a punishment for crashing my wagon. Did I mention ? I donot tolerate failure from my horses. If they fail me, I take my gun out (or knife, to be discrete or save monneh sometimes) and kill it so it will never sabotage me or let me down again. Anyone do the same ?
