When they say STUPID SUICIDE,...

When they say STUPID SUICIDE,  they mean, STUPID SUICIDE.

Only once did I have this happen.  I had tried to fire a rocket through a door only to have it hit the wall.  I was close enough to the F%#$ing blast, that as I like to say "I ate the blast, and it went out the ass."

So lets make this a discussion:

Stupid suicides do happen, But the object of playing a game and loosing is to learn so you do not make stupid mistakes in the future.

Stupid mistakes are born from ignorance, Dumb mistakes are born from lazyness.

EDIT: For the above piciture, Imagine the @ one tile bellow the _

Using your system,  it was more like:


#--------------------
#
#..................|X
#----------||_|---------
#........||||    
#...||||
#@
#
#

I was shooting at an angle, and it was the first time I used the thing.

I admit, I shied away from it for a while for fear of a repeat performance.

In all games, Rocket launchers work on the same principal.

That one is: "Something very fast comes out of that end, When that thing hits someone, That guy is most likely dead. Do not shoot the floor or that guy will be you"

Doom, Quake, Deus Ex, Etc all follow those rules, And so does DoomRL.

The basic principle is -- if you can kiss him, do do not fire a rocket at him ^_^.

Well, If he loves you enough to consent to a kiss and you love him for the same, Firing a BB Gun would mean bad news :-)

Hmm, I just had an idea!

#3 has to be Bowser's laugh from Super Mario 64.

Excellent story, too.

As for shooting oneself in the foot with a rocketlauncher: I keep catching myself in the very edge of explosions, or I'll walk out of a door and be standing a little too close to a barrel, or something like that. It's only gotten me killed once (walked into a new level, surrounded by 3 barrels, 2 imps promptly walk into sight range...) but it's annoying none-the-less.

Better luck next time.

Really? Damn.

Well, that does explain why I was able to gun down the first so easly... he was standing right in range when the level started. Another imp promptly stepped up to take his place, though, and it was only level 2, so I had a pistol and a regular shotgun...

Didn't dare use the shotgun for fear of causing a level-destroying chain reaction myself, since it was one of those levels that are full of barrels, so I was stuck using the pistol.

Barrels have an explosion radius of about 5-6 tiles, So long as another barrel near you isint in that circle of doom you are safe with the shotgun.

Actually the shotgun is your best bet in that situation, When the Imp is near the barrel then he should die with the first or second shot - Either he dies first or the barrel goes first.

Even if you get caught in the explosion, Its only 30% of your health anyway.

Beats death.

#1 K'z'K: name of a demon in sluggy freelance, possesed gwyn.

haven't got a clue where the other 2 are from, allthough they look oddly familiar...

on topic:
I also still suicide in stupid ways.. usually this happens on level 2. I'll get a bit too overconfident, thinking level 2 is easy enough for me to rush through, and suddenly find myself surrounded by lost souls without the combat shotgun in my inventory. They're usually pushovers, but if you haven't got the right weaponry, even 3 lost souls can spell game over.

Bing bing bing! Turgor wins...A Toaster.

Great comic...

One of the worst things that can happen to you is getting to level 17 or thereabouts, Facing a Hell Knight and for him to blast a barrel, Which will in turn blast you into the lava, Which will then kill you.

RvB, the alien, whose name escapes me at the moment, as I have been awake FAR too long.

That would be number two.

Caboose tried to name The Alien such things as "Crunchbite" and "Fluffy - The alien that only loves."

Damn RVB is funny.
