ok this is more of a worst fail for me.
i was playing San Andres and i had been trying to complete a really annoying mission for like over an hour. I had to steal some plans from a office building. It takes about 10 min of hoop jumping before you make it to the top where the plans are kept after which the alarm goes off and you have to kill tons of cops to escape. If you die then you have to do it all over again, so after half a dozen tries I fianlly manage to fight my way out of the building and i manage to shake my wanted level and since i was right near a gun shop and on my last leg, i decide to buy some new armor just in case any last minute surprises we're waiting for me. I buy the armor, leave the store and get in my car...and then i shit you not, a goddamn PLANE!!! crashes right on top of me, blowing my car up, killing me instantly and forcing me to restart the mission over again!
I know what happend, when leaving a store the game respawns people, cars and other stuff that it removes while your inside a building to save memory. one of the things that was spawned was a plane, but it was spawned right in front of a high rise building causing it to insantly crash and kill me...but what are the odds that it would happen then of all times!
I had to rage quit (one of the few times in my life) and i didn't touch the game for a few days. It is the cheapest death i have ever gotten in a game in my life and it's one of the many reasons i will proabley never play that game again (another was i just didn't like how it ended)
