Expression when you die while playing...???

RoninBuddha · Post by **RoninBuddha** » Sat Apr 23, 2005 3:42 pm

just a random thread, not commonly disscused (does it even need disscussion??hehe)

you'r prolly playing you favorite shmup... you're really into teh game, then the enemies crazy bullets barragge the screen... in the middle of the madness, you eventually get hit... (there goes you 1C streak)..

what is your expression??

mine would usually be "Bah! Darnit"

Lately ive been saying 'Fucking Bastard!' a lot at Souky. I think I'm going to have to leave that game alone for quite a while, as everytime I loose a life before stage 6 I go mental

Its only started happening recently, the thing thats so annoying is I die more in stage 3 than i do in stage 4, 5 or 6. Well about the same as 6...

i normally splutter an expletive through clenched teeth. if its a really lame death i often hit my forehead in a Homer stylee which may or may not be hard enough to render me insensible for a moment or two

Depends on the situation:

"Aw, dang it!" ("regular" death)
"Stupid!" (stupid death, obviously)
"Great, here we go..." (dying very quickly twice in a row, a la Gradius)
"Wouldn't give it to me..." (just barely getting my hitbox nicked)
"You bastard!" (being point blanked or otherwise killed cheaply)
"Oy yoi yoi..." (upon suddenly hitting a wall and losing all my lives in rapid succession)

Probably a few others, but those are my most common exclamations, heh.

I usually sigh or grumble when I lose a life normally...

If I die stupidly-

"DUDE, WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?!"

captain ahar · Post by **captain ahar** » Sat Apr 23, 2005 4:54 pm

"Liars..." when i hit a wall or otherwise obvious thing Gradius
"Fucka' Hell" accent on -ka, appropriate for all seasons
*Raspberry* successive deaths in anything... but particularly Gradius
*Laughter* any death while playing DOJ, or similar hell (Gradius III usually fits under this banner)

you'll notice much mention of Gradius, because i don't play much else these days. out of 7 consoles i regularly use, 4 have Gradius inside them (and 2 of those don't technically support it). i can almost hear Turrican laughing maniacally in the distance.

Clench Teeth sometimes

Shout profanities

I used to go wild at the computer, but I've calmed down since

landshark · Post by **landshark** » Sat Apr 23, 2005 5:35 pm

The most common is a simple yelling of "Fuck!"

Or "This fucking game!" (last night 2am dragon blaze)

Or not yelling at all and punching the monitor.

MovingTarget · Post by **MovingTarget** » Sat Apr 23, 2005 5:40 pm

Oh yea I say "Fucking Hell!!" too.

I sometimes draw my fist back to punch the screen or table but I've learned to control that

Ive mashed my right knuckles up before from punching solid objects and my hand is still kinda fucked up, so i realy cant punch anything with my right hand anymore as it'll do damage and hurt like hell.

Dewclaw · Post by **Dewclaw** » Sat Apr 23, 2005 5:56 pm

Heheh...it depends on the time of day. If its daytime it's either some foreign expletive or the classic "COME ONNNNNNNN"

If everyone is asleep then you will hear epic strings of profanity. I can never articulate myself well when I'm angry though, so "son of a whorebag" and "mother fucking cock-dick-shitfucker" happen alot.

I'm usually more down on myself than most. I don't really swear. I just say, "I'm throwing it away... for no reason."

Or, "This game is all about comebacks. Just don't die in the next stage and you're cool."

Sly Cherry Chunks · Post by **Sly Cherry Chunks** » Sat Apr 23, 2005 9:05 pm

It ranges from "fuck..." to a burst of laughter. I've also been known to launch into Kahn's "He tasks me and I shall have him!" speech from Star Trek II, pointing at whatever killed me onscreen.

Smraedis · Post by **Smraedis** » Sat Apr 23, 2005 9:08 pm

I usually say "oops" to every death or slip up, or a "noooo" if I die twice in a short time.

Blade · Post by **Blade** » Sat Apr 23, 2005 9:30 pm

Usually, for me...

"Dammit..."

"Godammit..."

"Godfukingdammit..."

"Shitwhorebuttmuncher..." There are other variations to this (I invent new expletives) and by then I usually throw the controller somewhere...usually someplace soft so it won't break....

And then I do my impression of Goku going Super Saiyan.

"AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHH!!!" with echoes in the background.

FatCobra · Post by **FatCobra** » Sat Apr 23, 2005 11:14 pm

Usually I say AHHH!!! when I'm on a roll and then I get hit.

If I die a stupid death, I bat my eye and say "DOH!" Homer-style.

On occasion I yell out certain four letter words.

Back in my earlier shmupping days I used to curse quite a bit.

Now it's just :

JESUS FUCK

that's when i'm really mad

usually i'm just dissapointed with myself, which is kind of sad lol it's usually my fault when i die, so i can't be mad at the game. but if it's the game's fault....

"FUCK!!! WHY THE HELL DID I GET GREEDY FOR?!?!" - Greed deaths

"YOU FUCKING CUNT!!!" - Stupid deaths

"CHEAP CUNT!!!" - Cheap deaths

MadSteelDarkness · Post by **MadSteelDarkness** » Sun Apr 24, 2005 3:44 pm

I'm usually pretty calm about such things so it usually comes out as:

"Awww....man..."

But occasionally it's:

"...Bastards..."

Wow... You guys are really emotional.

How I feel is completely different story. In a game like Garegga, It's no problem. In a game like Souky, I want to blow up the universe.

Thank fuck I'm not the only one, Ive thought my head was going to explode several times with this game through sheers anger

Leeram · Post by **Leeram** » Sun Apr 24, 2005 7:21 pm

If I know I screwed up, "You fuckin' moron", to myself.

If I think the game ripped me off, "you fucking cheating bastard machine", although I must admit that that expression is reserved mainly for SNES Streetfighter 2, but on occasion a shmup will get it levelled at it.

If the game got me fair and square and I saw what got me, "You fucking twat", can normally be heard.

Although probably the most common is, "what the fuck got me then?"

There's always my speciality "you fucking cheating bastard machine, what the fuck got me then? There was fuck all there you lying cunt". Which I can often be heard saying when the children have gone to bed.

Cheers

"Fuck!" is commonly used when I get hit, especially when I'm playing a shmup like Layer Section, where you have to gather the weapon power-ups all over again.

"Fuckin dumbass!" is what I say to myself when I could've easily avoided death but reacted to slow; or when I could actually see a bullet or enemy coming my way, but like a *dumbass*, run right into it.

BUT, no matter how angry I get, I NEVER EVER throw/hit my controller or console, unlike some idiots I know.

Note - it's not a good idea to keep alot of expensive, breakable objects nearby when trying to beat Super Nova on Hard level.

There's just something about repeated failure at a cheap game that makes you prone to destroying nearby personal property. I usually keep a box or something inexpensive nearby that I can beat the shit out of whenever I lose, because it's either that or something more valuable that is going to get destroyed.

Wow...I remember when I was a kid, trying to beat Bison on level 8 in Street Fighter 2. I went through quite a few SNES controllers, a trash can, a couple speakers...quite an expensive habit I had going there!

Anyway, I've calmed down a bit...now my expression of profuse anger usually reverts to "GOD DAMMIT" or "YOU GOD DAM FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT GAME."

After I've lost repeatedly enough times, sometimes I will burst into spontaneous, slow psychotic laughter. Such as, trying to recover after losing a life in level 9 in Gradius 3, then dying about 20 times in the same spot. I really HATE those stupid blue power-ups in that game, how friggin useless and annoying could one power-up actually be?
