I hope that duck gained the title "Darkwing" for that.dvd_72 said:Not quite happene to me, or even in my game, but in Dwarf Fortress a normal duck gained a title for killing two "clowns". I'd say that's pretty embarrassing for them
*Twitch*... What... How the dickbats is that supposed to be possible when the first of those squads tears you apart with ease?SirBryghtside said:
I was killed by a slight hill in Oblivion once. I wandered down a slight hill, but fell off the ground just high enough and going forward just fast enough to effectively orbit for the length of the hill, at which point I hit the bottom of the hill at terminal velocity and died.
I got killed by a headcrab just the other day in Black Mesa.
Not a whole load of them.
Just one.
Jumped right up my jacksie.

I was playing halo reach campaign, all skulls on, end of the second level and absolutely out of nowhere a grunt got a ridiculously lucky shot and stuck me with a plasma from at least 20 meters away.
I no longer have 3 xbox controllers.

Oh god yes Oblivion is terrible for this. Especially if your athletics is high >_> "Running running running weeeee-- oh shi- /splat"Altorin said:
That being said I still miss athletics and acrobatics... :C
OT: Mass Effect, anytime you die to husks. Especially in the lower difficulties. So much shame ;_;
I was happy in the sequels at first because they didn't have that god awful "lol I eat your shields now" move... but then I realised how much more they sucked ='D
Sigh..
It has to be presented. And we all know it:
Dying to a friend "karating-chopping" their way, blindly, through a cloud of smoke. You're holding dual P-90s. He's suffering from the epic frame lag.
It happened to me. My friend laughed his ass off.

"Darkwing the Netherfowl" infact!vallorn said:I hope that duck gained the title "Darkwing" for that.dvd_72 said:Not quite happene to me, or even in my game, but in Dwarf Fortress a normal duck gained a title for killing two "clowns". I'd say that's pretty embarrassing for them
I've been killed by Crawlers in Killing Floor right after killing fleshpunder and a scrake. Crawlers do almost no damage and most weapons kill them with one shot. I guess I can blame it on the fact that there are zombies everywhere, but still it makes me hang my head in shame.
Goombas
Mudcrabs
Grunts (Halo)
Enemy infantry taking down tanks in C&C games
Dying in the starter areas of WoW by anything, it's happened to me.
I've been killed by the weakest enemy in any game I've ever played (Where it can happen) probably once before. And I'd bet everyone else is in the same boat.

So I'm fooling around in single-player minecraft hardcore mode, looking for interesting stuff to do. I'm in an ice forest biome, and there, on the top of a large canopy of trees at the top of a slight incline, sits a solitary pig.
Thinks I: "Hmmm, that looks like a tasty little beastie. I have a stone sword and a bad attitude. Let's go get me some cholesterol."
So I get myself to the lower edge of canopy, three trees or so across from where the pig sits. As it gazes ruefully at the stars, I make a short tower of dirt, only four or five blocks high, to get myself onto the canopy. Soon I'm standing on a leafy bed. I start to make my way towards my oblivious target.
I edge around the outside of the canopy, making my way upwards, scaling the incline. I keep my target in line-of-sight as I work my way up the slight incline, until I receive one heck of a shock: at the top of this innocent-looking hill is what might conservatively be described as the mother of all f--king cliffs. I'm talking a straight drop from the top of a VERY tall hill, directly into a VERY deep ravine, with no outcrops to break your fall. And I had just come ridiculously close to jumping right into it.
"Phew!" I think. "That was close. Now let's go get... hey, where's that pig gone?"
And it's then that I hear an ominous "oink" from somewhere very close by, which I'm sure is pigspeak for "Die, motherf--ker." Then there's a flash of pink, and a nudge. And before I have time to say "Oh crap", I've just provided yet more proof that in a game of "chicken" between your face and a stone floor, your face is the underdog for a reason.
And that is how a Demon Pig from Hell managed to kill me where creepers, skeletons, zombies and blazes had all failed. Freaking pigs.

I once got killed by a rat in a Tomb Raider game. Not a giant rat or anything, I was just low on health and I got killed by a regular sewer-rat who nipped my toe so hard Lara grabbed her heart and fell to the floor, crying out as if she'd had a stonefish catapulted at her.
I consider it my punishment from playing a Tomb Raider game.

Now to point out it didn't happen to me because I had enough of can idea to run but I watched my friends girlfriend get killed by the first zombie is resident evil.
Due to the lack of enemy footstep sounds in System Shock 2, those pipe-weilding Hybrids can totally screw you up if you don't notice them.
And under the rare circumstances they don't scream horrifying, cryptic messages at you.

I played Nethack once, which ended with me dying of food poisoning from eating a dead bat. In other words, I wasn't just killed by a weak enemy, I was killed by one that I'd already killed. That's a pretty sad way to die.
I can't help but die a little inside every time a generic mook lands their 1% crit chance on a unit I'm trying to train when playing Fire Emblem.
Being a grid-based, turn-based, strategy game, it's fairly easy to account for pretty much everything EXCEPT the crit chances, which are often times so small and mitigated further still by the fact they have a less than 100% chance to even land a hit in the first place, you never pay attention to them.
And then the RNG dances its little jig.
Oh, and in Skyrim, where I'm training up a new character, I'm occasionally on the recieving end of some combat system glitches.
Yeah, laugh it up Dragur. You'd be the one with a sword in your skull had my left trigger actually registered the fact I was wielding my handy little healing spell for a reason. I don't want to have to pause my heated combat and break the flow of my mental anticipations to un-equip/re-equip my spell just so I can use it again. I want to be killing Draugr and watching the little blue bars fill up. Is that so hard to ask?
