I was assassinated once due to lag. Then the guy assassinating me lagged out and I was stuck there, Standing up with no gun and unable to move at all. Was hilarious to look at. Yeah, It's off-topic but still.

I've show-stopped to save myself before, with a counter assassination. It has to do with lag, usually.

I sometimes decide I'm not going to be Assassinated.

Occasionally. Sometimes I pull off this complex maneuver where I spawn a Shotgun, spin around, shoot them, and turn back around, losing the Shotgun in the process, all in a single frame.

It takes months of practice. Sometimes years.

Something like that happened to me once. I was playing Living Dead and I was an alpha zombie. I was waiting outside the red lift tunnel for some allies to come along. A human jumped down and tried to assassinate me. Due to lag the assassination screwed up, I turned around and killed him receiving a showstopper in the process.

The guy who tried to assassinate me then raged quit...

I'm assuming the sniper got a yoink out of it?

Forget it man, and get with the countdown. Shake this square world and blast off for Kicksville.

Reach host ranking algorithm: (a*quit_percentage + b*isMexican + c*(1/KDR) + d*hasGuest) * 100
where a > b = d > c

What's worse is when the game decides you really wanted to assassinate the rocket guy instead of beating him down, then the rocket guy decides he doesn't want join in the assassination animation, and then kills you before the game gets around to killing him.

I was unimpressed.

What's worse than this is playing LASO on Long Night of Solace and near the end elites suddenly decide they can't be assassinated by you anymore. -_-

Am I the only one with this problem? BOTH times I've done this level with friends during the final waves protecting the Pelican, my assassinations just don't work, animation or otherwise.
