Bashe Posted June 6, 2004 I know there may be threads that already ask this, but all of those threads are too old, so I'll just start this one. I jumped just 3 minutes ago and one time before that. I was playing the console doom wad to see how far I could get (I got to "Blood Keep: Map18) and some of the Doom 64 maps were altered in that wad. I fired a rocket and I realized there was a spectre. I jumped at the sight of the red screen, not know what was going on. In "Blood Keep," I was firing rockets at Hell Knights and Barons but I stepped in front of a wall and I died. :( I usually get tense when I hear a demon but I can't see it. I get REALLY tense in mazes, especially when there's something like a Revenant in there. I jump whenever I get surprise attacked by swarms of anything with a loud sight noise (Cacodemon, Revenant, etc.). Well, give me your experiences! 0 Share this post Link to post
wildweasel Posted June 6, 2004 Last time I was affected like that was with Realm of the Green Soul - the first Stealth Imp that attacked me. I had no idea about stealth monsters at that point. 0 Share this post Link to post
SulfurOccult Posted June 6, 2004 play testing my friends level yesterday. i was riding an elevator up to an area i had been, not knowing that a Cacodemon had spawned there. it nailed me faster than i thought it should have been able too. 0 Share this post Link to post
Vegeta Posted June 6, 2004 I jumped when I were testing the Revenant's behavior that I'm working on (one that make him far more deadlier and agressive). First I tested it in map01 (with "summon revenant" cheat, and map 16, but nothing special, I said "yes, it works fine", but then I tested it in the first room of map06, and I get scared with my own monster, oh, and I died the first time, what a shame. 0 Share this post Link to post
Chopkinsca Posted June 6, 2004 About a month ago an imp managed to slip by me without me noticing and when I turned around it freaked me out that something was in the once empty hall. 0 Share this post Link to post
deathbringer Posted June 6, 2004 Was just playing through Dues vult, i got a bit scared when i first stepped into the vast cavern at the start of map 2, i had no idea what to do or where to go, just that i had to keep running and trying to kill some of the hundreds of monsters firing at me from evrywhere, 15 minutes of blindly running and shooting later i still dont know what to do, and there seems to be just as many enemies as ever hehe 0 Share this post Link to post
Use Posted June 6, 2004 Just the other day in Vile Fleah map22, I hit this switch and the floor flew down leaving me face to face with a pissed off Revenant. 0 Share this post Link to post
Bashe Posted June 6, 2004 This jump was never really inside of Doom, but it made me jump. I was playing Map20: Gotcha! and had just spawned there, sitting. I turned the volume quite loud since I never thought it was loud enough. Then, for some reason, windows had an error, and I was on my brother's PC. He has "The Rock" sounds as his errors and stuff. I had the speakers loud and that error noise was LOUD!!! Man, I nearly ran out of the PC room screaming. So, it wasn't Doom's fault, it was Window's. 0 Share this post Link to post
Amaster Posted June 6, 2004 Windows strikes fear in the hearts of men. For me it was probably the last time I played Asylum of the Wretched. 0 Share this post Link to post

Bashe Posted June 7, 2004 I jumped just less than a minute ago. I'm doing a little silly thing called "The Apocalypse" where I just summon in tons of Cyberdemons and Spidermasterminds all over the Suburbs. I was hiding in the little square building (the one with the fake wall) killing Cybers through the fake wall. I was pretty sure that they were all dead in that area, so I left the building when BOOM!!! I died. I totally wasn't expecting that. 0 Share this post Link to post
Oh No Its Kyle Posted June 7, 2004 Bashe, is it just me or do you get scared easily? 0 Share this post Link to post
Bashe Posted June 7, 2004 Oh No Its Kyle said:Bashe, is it just me or do you get scared easily? Yes, I'm afraid so... Mostly its just surprises. I never really get scared literally. 0 Share this post Link to post
Infinite Ammunition Posted June 7, 2004 I usually get a bit tense when I jump into a really deep pit and I can't see the bottom, so Mock2 map13 and map23 do it for me. 0 Share this post Link to post
Nmn Posted June 7, 2004 Hmmm. I jumped when playing Virgil's Claustrophobia (level 1, with the knight and the ripped body). Not surprising tough. 0 Share this post Link to post
Doom_Dude Posted June 7, 2004 I jumped the other day when I turned around in this map I was playing and I thought everything was dead and this sarge blasted me in the ass. This one time when I was mapping for the original Vilecore and using DoomCAD, I accidentially put two Cybs in a small room and I thought I had placed torches. So I was running around my map without any thought of being attacked. I thought my map was monsterless because I hadn't placed any yet.... that I knew of. When the Cybs roared I almost had a freakin heart attack. lol. 0 Share this post Link to post

Goliath Posted June 9, 2004 I was playing the other day and a bird hit my window when I was fighting a pink demon. That scared me alot. 0 Share this post Link to post
Piezo Posted June 13, 2004 Last week when I used my little headphones on the computer for the first time. I was on TNT - Evilution map18 (man I'm tired of that map) and I walked back into the big room at the end when I was spotted by a Hell Knight. His roar made me jump because of how loud my headphones where. It's actually quite an experience to play Doom with headphones and the volume up loud. 0 Share this post Link to post
Janderson Posted June 13, 2004 Recently I was playing something for zdoom, and I heard a fizzing. The person sitting next to me said 'what is that?' Then suddenly we heard a POC(Jump1)! come from my laptop adapter. She screamed(Jump2), and Doom guy got raped by a cyberdemon(Jump3). I fell out of my chair. My laptop began beeping so I tried to shut it down. Some guy banged the door open(jump4). I fell out of my chair again, (I preffer two legs to four). My laptop never woke up. 0 Share this post Link to post
Bashe Posted June 13, 2004 I was chatting the other day and I fell out of my chair. I usually think the chair is lined up with the bed, so the chair will sit there, but this time it wasn't and I fell down. 0 Share this post Link to post

JacKThERiPPeR Posted June 15, 2004 I think I normally scare the freak out when I hear the CyberDemon steps in some DooM 64 map for PC DooM. (I think it is "Cat and Mice" or somewhat) 0 Share this post Link to post
SulfurOccult Posted June 16, 2004 when the Doom64 TC first came out i was shocked. i hadn't ever played original Doom64 so i was always like "ommagosh, something unexpected-IN DOOM!!!" 0 Share this post Link to post
