I thought I'd post my recent epic fail.
One of the first dogfights I've been in, I was doing ok. Not great but not absoulutely terrible either. Well we were coming at each other head on, my shields fail and then my cockpit glass blows out. OMG i dident even know that could happen. With only space suit oxygen, I've got like 5 mins to live. I manage to retreat from the fight and locate an outpost close enough to try for. (Flying with no glass is a challenge as there is no display where the glass is missing) I get to the outpost with about 40 secs to spare, find the docking pad and try to land quickly. Landed with 10 secs on the clock...backwards. Slowly start spinning to face the right direction, ran out of air and blew up on the landing pad... priceless.
