top 5 doom death animations

[the-widow-maker]

1-Cacodemon(the sound clinches it)
2-Daemon(again nice sound)
3-Mancubus(bloody!)
4-Chaingunner
5-Pain elemental

If you think my ideas are stupid then why are u even talking to me???!

[deadnail]

Hmph, I thought this cavalcade of top-ten-etry would stick to the General Forum but I guess I was wrong.

1 - Cacodemon (Yeah, I like how it just spills)
2 - Former Humans (I like how they grab the hole in their chest as their lifted off their feet to land on their backs)
3 - Cyberdaemon (It's just fucking satisfying to see the bastard erupt and only leaving some blood and hooves)
4 - Arachnotron (I like how it's brain splits and the sound)
5 - Commander Keen (He just has it coming)


To be simply argumentative:
Daemon - Poor animation. I dislike how the blood is still falling while the body is flat on the ground.
Mancubus - Looks like rotted chicken falling off of the bone.
Pain Elemental - What? It just explodes.

[Zaldron]

At this rate, we´ll soon start topten-ing our asses...

Anyway, here they are :

1- Mancubus (love how the fat pulls the skin down, showing the bones)
2- Arachnotron (combined with a shotgun blast, this dead sprite sequence looks like something out of SoF)
3- Baron of Hell (not much because the sprites but the sound, it´s just amazing)
4- Cacodemon (nice flow of blue goo)
5- Chaingunner (a gory dead for a damned motherfucker)

There's one frame where you can see a lost soul popping out... the skull is red with yellow eyes and it looks really cool.

I used to think the Mancubus was the best one. I still think it's a pretty cool death scene, but not entirely fitting when the last thing you put into it's body is a pistol shot.

I like the Caco's eye falling out, but not much else; it looks like some kid threw a can of blue paint at it.

The demon's blood is a nice touch also. I never bothered to notice if it's timing was proper but I like how it splats. Kinda similar to a few of those "realistic" action movies I've seen; in particular, one with Chow Yun Fat where some terrorists take over a hospital and Chow and some dude run around killing everybody in the end. They did a great job with the blood and bulletwounds in that one.

[nightmare imp]

here are my fives:

1.imp:just the way it hits the ground with that"aurghhh!"
2.cacodemon:a messy death
3.those damn arch-viles,falling to peices
4.cyberdemon"KA-BOOM!"
5.demon(bulldemon,whatever)the snarl and loud thud!

[CHAINSAW+DGM]

I didn't like the caco demon one too much
on my version of doom I redid it so it explodes in burst of
purple plazma - oh and the sound was good but i redid that
to fit in with my new set of frames

HUBUBULEEE! - it says when it dies

TOP TEN DOOMWORLD ASSES......

only kidding! (so sorry)

[CHAINSAW+DGM]

ok here it comes.....

1 pain elemental (look at the way the skulls just burst out)
2 imps (simple but efective)
3 gibs (all of them)
4 cyber demon (that was one big mother fuckin' gib man)
5 mancubus (it's mr creasote.....sorry monty python joke)
6 yaks (uuhhhg thump!)
7 barons and hell knights (slop!)
8 spider demon (just look at the way it falls)
9 chain gunner (off with his head!!!)
10 former humans (they are in pain!)

one's I didn't like

cacodemon (the corpse was too big and you could walk through it)
vile (didn't they nick that death off catacomb abyss*)
lost soul (should have been chunks of skull in that)

* catacomb abyss is an old heretic style game based on the
wolf 3d engine - if you ever come across it play it....it's
got zombies in it and magic weapons

[Guest Employee 2-4601]

3: Chaingun guy: need i to say more?
2: Demon: the sound...

And finally the one we have been waiting for
1: Cyberdemon: a nice gibbing anim

1. Mancubus (love the sounds)
2. Arch-vile
3. Cyberdemon (splat)
4. Baron & Hell Knight (pretty cool sound)
5. Spider Mastermind (kaboom)

[Jayextee]

1; The ArchVile. Eerie sound, and the death is kinda half-gib, half regular death.
2; Pain elemental. Look at the frames in WinTEX, and you can see how the skulls it so kindly hosts tear it to pieces upon it's death. Shudder.
3; Arachnotron. The sound clinches it.
4; Cacodaemon, I love the eye popping out. IMO the PSX version has a better death sound.
5; 'Cyberdemon64'; To me, it makes more sense to see it explode in such a manner.
