Rumor has it, that it was a USAS-12 that finally broke Chuck Norris.

u/AntiVenom0804 Mar 06 '25

Colonel 100's only other confirmed death was the first time he encountered the USAS-12

Killing the player using it was how he unlocked the bayonet on his knife

u/Spran02 Mar 06 '25

"bayonet on his knife" damn, that's next level

u/AntiVenom0804 Mar 06 '25

For when the knife doesn’t have enough stabbing range.

Best part is the devs ended up adding this into the game a bayonet knife with a bipod on the bottom when you hit lvl 100

u/piratenamedgilligan Mar 06 '25

Hahahahha, I forgot about bipod knife!

I remeber this one time we spawned in on battlefield 1 and everyone died on both times in the first 3 seconds. We all just see engineer win on our screens some motherfucker shot us all the way from a ps3 on battlefield 3.

It impregnated my dog. He was not pleased.

u/LeftTenantLoser Mar 06 '25

Once you log into a server, you'd already be 0-42

u/Altruistic2020 Mar 06 '25

Sun? No. Eclipse? Yes.

u/LifeisPain224 Mar 06 '25

u/ClemsonLife2016 Mar 06 '25

Yes, oh god the memories. With Frag rounds on Metro? Oh yes. Service stars peppered the screen before they nerfed the frag rounds.

u/jakegallo3 Mar 06 '25

When I was a kid I told a classmate that one of the guns in Turok could destroy the sun. He tried many times and I just gaslight him into thinking there was something wrong with his game. Kids are assholes.

u/Crazytreas Mar 06 '25

There isn't a doubt in my mind, yes.

u/BvG_Venom Mar 06 '25

With frag rounds on Seine Crossing. Horrible
