    ...when you are over half the map away from an armory, you call for ammo in the middle of a fight, and the comm says "I dropped you ammo at the armory".

    ...when you have 1 hp and the comm drops your med pack(s) half way down the hallway...right in front of a hydra.

    Or if you don't get any ammo/health at all, even though you are pressing the button, using (voice)chat and explaining your commander how to do it.
    Oh god, I've done that. I've gone step by step to explain how to do things, and they don't know how even after that. It's...amazing, really.

    It's like talking to a wall

    did that once. we spent 5 minutes trying to tell the comm what to do, ended up the comma had sound off.

    Get this person on a div 1 team, he seems to know what hes doing.

    For explaining tasks such as how to place the resource tower. I explain it like this with keyboard commands. "Press spacebar, then s, and click by me"
    Works more often than not, although how fast one does it is an issue. Some persons will be able to see what I am saying and this happens in under 30 seconds. Some persons this is a two minute process, making me fight off two waves of skulks before he places the first RT.

    When your commander informs you that medpacks are a "luxury" while still having 40 res (he also didn't spend it for the next few minutes).

    ...when you have arrived on a German server and out of 18 players, you are the only one capable of human speech.
    Depending on how long you can stomach talking to a black hole of silence, you're in for a real fun conversation with a brick wall.

    Doesn't quite belong here:

    You know your team-mate is awesome when:
    ..they move in packs.
    ..they count in assaults.
    ..they hold their position until the count-in finishes and someone calls "Go!".

    Found about 5 random non-clanners doing this together in a pub game. It was unexpected and awesome.

    also when people actually know how to distract the enemy... oh look the marine is shooting at my friend and his back is to me? let's wait and see who comes out on top...

    ...When someone finishes the power while building a remote gate
    ...Conversely, when someone wants to 99% every power node, including the ones at your natural RTs

    actually, don't see a problem with this, good policy in general, on the off chance you die before finishing the Rt, at least you won't have to weld up a powernode. not a huge benefit , but at literally no cost except the one in a hundred times they attack in that 2 second window between finishing the phase or Rt and tapping the power.

    It's more about making sound than it is about saving that precious power node.

    as opposed to being completely quiet while building the res? if you're talking about 99ing literally every node, then it's more on the comm for dropping than on the other guy for building.

    Comm you should put a phase gate in <natural rt>
    We need an armory also.
    ...two spawn waves later...
    We need sentries too. Then we can win.

    I guess I should have been more clear: when that person makes a big deal about 99%ing every power node on the map.

    - teammates don't check the map when nodes are under attack
    - skulks running straight at shotguns
    - marines constantly pressing jump
    - people who doesn't cover other teammates back
    - people who always joins marine and sucks at it
    - people who always joins alien and sucks at it
    - when a teammate says "command station under attack" and other teammates continue to go about their business
    - people who can't aim
    - people who stack the team with the regularly playing losers
    - person who plays too much NS2 he could dominate the entire enemy team
    - person who plays too much NS2 so much he sucks it
    - person who always complain how shitty this game is yet he continues to play

    Why does my team keep yelling at me? They're the ones who keep attacking the res instead of the power!

    Not as good as @BeigeAlerts, but that picture reminded me of the bacon dog commercials with the golden retriever. And bacon is ns2 terminology.
