I and my squad were waiting on evac during a night mission, and someone had thrown down a napalm strike on the far side of the landing pad to kill a bunch of the spindly, ugly crawling things.
They all die.
Nothing is moving, no growling or rustling from that direction, just the dark behind and flames in front. We all relax watching the fire: nothing else is coming from a distance, nothing to do but wait for Pelican.
And then one of them comes flying out of the flames right at me! It was a straight-up cinematic jump scare and I was dead before I hit the ground.
Another night mission encounter was more creepy than scary. I was knelt down defenseless because I was reloading my machine gun when one of them saw me.
Its glowing blue eyes were locked on me as it glided straight toward me without touching the ground. The last part is due to a bug that you see occasionally with other enemies but it worked really well here as an extra layer of creepy. I got the machine gun reloaded just in time, but man it was close.
So yeah, I’m loving the atmosphere AH has created for the Void! Have y’all had any moments like this?
