What moves you?

This is kind of an open-ended poll.

All questions are relating to terrain.....
First question: What, in a map, would scare you?

Second: What, in a map, would make you go "whao"?

Third: What, in a map, would be strange/trippy/wild etc...?

Please elaborate on your answers. Thanks!

Wait, there was only four questions.... Grrr.

BTW, I'm going to use this in a map I'm terraining, so I need some more feedback.

In not so many words.... *BUMP*

1. Good scary atmosphere, with music. You can't quite scare people but you can creep them out with Wc3--maybe even a scary face popping up out of no where? :0

2. Simply astonishingly great terrain--high sky views, huge stuff, lots of detail, and stuff that just makes you feel emotional, just from terrain. Music helps, too. So do rays of light, but no overdoing it.

3. Nothin'.

1) That one map where it says "what is wrong with this" and you stare for a lil, then it goes AAAAAAH and you have your speakers turned up. Made me jump out of my seat o.o

2) Really nice terrain or really nice gameplay.

3) Nothing I can think of.

Holy shit I know exactly what you are talking about, and it scared me the same way.

MaybeI'm not asking the right question... How about, instead of what would scare you, maybe
"What would creep you out or make you feel uncomfortable?"

Hmm, perhaps a deserted graveyard and your walking through and then suddenly everyone pops out at once to kill you, but I cant really think of something scarier than that.

make a fade filter, make the camera look like its comin from the units point of wiew, also the fade filter redeuce sight a little, then have heavy breathing, and finaly do something very unexpected that might do the trick

edit- make rain, and fog too, make him walk thru a graveyard or somethin
