It was a couple of days ago when I hopped into a Dom match on the map with all those towers with my sniper fitting because I wanted to take it easy. Whilst trying to find a place to perch myself, I came across an enemy sniper up in the hills.
Wanting to test my 3 profile dampeners, I got about 10m away from him and proceeded to snipe from that spot: hoping I would not alert him. However, it only took the red a few seconds to notice I was there, but all he did was come up from behind and whack me once with his rifle. I then turned to his direction only to see him circle strafing as if to make his character appear as if it was dancing.
Without a sidearm on my Logi suit, I couldn't hope to do much other than to hip fire my rifle, but before I could, the redberry immediately went back to his spot and continued sniping.
We stayed there for a good amount of time before I was taken out by another enemy sniper, but those minutes spent with that redberry either had to be the most awkward or coolest moments I've had in Dust in a while.
Have any of you encountered any cool random redberries? |

Can't say I have. I've heard stories of honorable matches between scouts with Knives, snipers, etc. but that never happened to me. |

I did have a heavy trying to nova knife me once, I didn't kill him right away just so I could see him trying to catch up

Have had a few honor battles with other knife users.
The best one was running into three other scouts with knives, they all stopped and we dueled one at a time.
Got two out of three.

Today I had a redberry spawn on a CRU, run past me, and begin shooting at the other redberries. The distraction allowed me to take down the reds, but someone else on our team took down the rebel red.

My only good experience with a redberry involved assault dropships. We just happened to be flying around. I like to challenge enemy dropships to dog fights, you see. This one danced with me on two occasions. Once he bolted for the red zone, then came back for a duel at the top of the map. lol Long story short, I shot him down. A minute later I get mail. I think "Heh, another red sends me hatemail." To my surprise, he actually congratulated me on the fight. We met once more on the battle field, but he got swarmed and smacked into me. The crazy DS physics made me crash. :( But he apologized. All around a pretty awesome dude.

I've had that exact scenario happen to me as well. An unspoken sniper truce. Simply look at each other, do a dance, and immediately understand "Hey dude, I don't really want to fight you and you probably don't want to fight me. I'll shoot your guys and you'll shoot my guys, we'll both take it easy."
It got to the point where at one point a friendly came up to our sniping spot and tried to engage in my new redberry friend so I tried to get in his way while the redberry proceeded to kill him, then we returned to sniping.
Way back in January, but still.

This reminds me of the time me and a scout faced off in a good brawling match.
I could have shot him in the face but no, I decided to end that knifer with my fists.

My story is similar but with a nova knifer as he was testing how many snipers would kill him as he ran around them stayed in their area. I was confused for the first time as he was a covenant suit and showed up while I was in scope and accidently shot him. But then he came back to me and was dancing I laughed and danced as well. As I went back to sniping he went to go troll my friend who I warned not to kill him as he was cool. After the match needless to say I sent him a message saying I would pay him back for his suit and I apologized to him he said it was a cheap suit and not to worry about and said I gave him hope that Dust wasn't full of jerks and he would like to stay in New Eden. :D |

I can't say I've met any cool redberries like that, but I have been that cool redberry to other people.
I've stolen tanks from enemies then drive it up to them and get out and run away, giving it back to them.
I also ride on enemy tanks all over the map. |

I remember the days when we used to have Nova Knife fights where people would just gather around to watch them. You will still see me trying to hold on to that tradition, though not in a light suit. That's right. I knife with a heavy. To combat a scout in my heavy suit is a thrill. My weaknesses with such a suit is large and blaring that it puts me at a disadvantage. I love that. I dare them to try to get to my blind spots while going toe and toe against the goliath.
It's been a while since I have gotten into a scrap with a fellow Nova Knife user. These days, they'd sooner shoot me in the back with three other peoples than engage in close combat with me. I don't know. I'd be scared too if there was a heavy suit going around shanking people.

I only wish players can see the difference between a fire fight and an honorable dual.
I once into a redberry at mid range and we both had sniper rifles. I instinctively pulled out my Smg but he kept trying to snipe me so I say "eh, why da hell not?" and switch back to my rifle. We wound up blowing most our ammo as he is a tanked mid frame and I'm a fast scout. I won (thanks CoD) but never seen the guy again.

So, this one time, matchmaking put me in with 2 other reds. Just the 3 of us! It was Domination, and I didn't really want to fight, so I just RDV'd for my Saga and see how fast I could go. The Reds saw me several times, but I was just to fast. Once they got the objectives, the RDV'd their own LAV's. So, it's me, just driving, then these two other LAV's appear on my left as I circle the map. I then drive towards a straight road in the center of the map, and stopped. The other two Reds did the same thing. Then we RACED! |

No cool reds, I did have a face to face assault forge gun duel on flat terrain pretty early on.
It must of been 8 shots before he got me, no ground spamming, no sidearms, just strafing and gunning. |

Are such practices mentioned in some sort of sniper code of conduct that I am unaware of?  |
