Deathsight Messages

Ok, as doing the volume of messages in the space of time that I and those that helped me write them did them is not conducive to excellent quality, I'm going to allow you guys to present possible messages of your own if you wish.

These are the rules:

* The killee's name must be at the beginning. The killer's name (which includes their title when it comes out, but you don't have to provide a full title in your suggestion) must be at the end.

* Gender pronouns may be used, but only for the killee. This means his, her, she, he, etc.

* Damage death messages must be generic enough to cover any death by that kind of damage.

* Instakill death messages will only even be considered if the current one is, in my estimation, sub-par and the suggestion is significantly better.

* They can't be too long! If they're going over a couple of lines on someone with a decent sized wrapwidth, they're too long.

Remember that damage death messages get chosen from multiple possible messages, so I'm more interested in them than instakill death messages, which will only be considered as I have defined above.

Torak has been judged and found wanting by the Holy Power of the Supernals channeled through Lights Justice Sir Silimaur, Igashen Fury.

I wast JUST about to write that! It brought back memories of A Knight's Tale!

Too long.

Shorter, but not quite as impressive.

Killee has been judged and found wanting in the Light by Killer.

Any chance we could get custom deathsight messages for custom weapons?

Serrin has been anihilated by Orclachmar's Wrath in the hands of Richter.

Munsia's heart has been pierced by a bigass dragon fang, wielded by Daevos.

Just an idea. happy.gif

"Bob was beaten to a pulp by a gnome" should be "Bob has been beaten to a pulp by a gnome" sounds better then.
Xavius2006-01-26 20:26:04
I would guess no, since they aren't instakills. You'd just get damage source messages.

Torak moans in embarassment as he is kicked to death by Xenthos.
Torak moans in embarassment as he is punched to death by Xenthos.

(for newbie kick and punch if possible)
Richter2006-01-26 20:33:01
Well, you wouldn't hear anything from them...

Maybe just Killee has embarassingly been kicked to death by Killer? (sorry about spelling)
Daganev2006-01-26 20:46:04
That works.. I just want a special deathsense for newbie kick/punch.

Is moonburst a specific type of damage? unsure.gif If so, maybe:

Killee has been burned in Mother Moon's pale fire by Killer.
Lisaera2006-01-26 20:50:27
You can see the damage type of the ability in the AB file (the source doesn't matter, by the way). Moonburst is magical, and so will use one of the magical death messages.
Daganev2006-01-26 21:26:49
There is no AB file for kick and punch sad.gif
Richter2006-01-26 22:28:37
You know, honestly, there should be, for the newbies that run around not knowing what to do.

I agree there should be special messages though for them, I can see people trying to humiliate others, that'd be amazing. I can hear the Counterstrike "Humiliation!" message now...

Lisaera has suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of Richter. (Punching)

Serrin got his censor.gif kicked, yo. (kicking)

Murphy landed on his pointy little head, killing him instantly. (falling)

Now pick which of the three was the serious one. tongue.gif
