15 Enjoyably Dumb Things Gamers Do We Can't Explain

9. Destroying Every Piece Of Scenery Before Moving On

Killing an enemy with a perfectly timed shot to an explosive barrel never gets old. In fact, the idea of scoring that epic environmental kill is so infectious that you€™'ll probably go out of your way to get it during firefights, even if it means putting yourself in harm€™s way or extending an encounter for way longer than it should go on.

Even though nine times out of ten you'€™ll never actually line up the shot perfectly, and end up blowing up that explosive barrel a split second after the enemy moves out of range, every player will always go for gold on the off-chance they might just pull off one of those satisfying trick shots.

And hell, if you finish up an encounter and there€™'s still explosives in the area untouched, you can guarantee every player will be rectifying that before they move on.
