Most annoying enemies in a PC game...

every enemy in world of warcraft....The_Laser08

Hyenas and those Hellboars most of all.

The Snipers in Medal of Honor: Spearhead. one shot kill.

and those bat thingies in king kong when all you're armed with is a friggin' spear.

I was inspired today to do this. My vote goes to:

Cliff Racers in Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind (Suppose this applies to XBOX too)

They are EVERYWHERE, constantly sneaking up on you and disrupting what you're doing; coupled with that obnoxious screech sound they make. Agh.

GO.

Those things actually made me give up playing Morrowind they were so annoying.

haha yeah those are the worst.

here are quite a few that comes to my mind...

- Doom 3 : the flaming, flying heads and the spiders

- Diablo 2: the doom mages in the Chaos sanctuary that cast Iron Maiden (the curse that returns damage to you when you attack). this makes being an assassin/barbarian or any character that relies on massive dmg an annoying experience.

- Rome total war: Elephants and chariots.

- Red Alert 2: Yuri's mind control units /towers

- Age of empires 2: Mangudai (Mongol cavalry archers that are powerful in large numbers), and the neutral wolves that attacks your villagers.

- Dawn of War DC: being on the receiving end of Basilisks is not very fun. nor is the necron lord's arsenal of very annoying powers.

aww yeah cliff racers are definitely one of the most annoying. You'd go to rest but couldn't and you couldn't see anything around you, you just knew it was a cliff racer haha. Hated them.

Also agree with the guys from serious sam, the shout just gave it away but became tedious and annoying.

And i most definitely agree with the 12 year olds on counter-strike. I once went on and there was a boy, that because me and a mate were Scottish, decided he would try a Scottish accent with everything he said... I'm sorry but it sounded so bad i had to tell him to shut up haha.

Lost Souls in Doom 3.Those mofos always shake your perspective around and when they attack in numbers they're so pathetically annoying to fight! Should you find yourself cornered, you're in for a quick load! How inspiringly fun!

The dwellers from The Chronicles of Riddick. They aren't that much annoying because of what they actually are, brainless creatures with the urge to kill adn devour. The problem with them is that they respawn, and they respawn so quickly it's not even funny. The first dwellers level is an insult to the intelligence of any FPS fan. Really, really bad decision.

The Flood. C'mon, really. In a game that has such awesome Covenant action, not only do you have to crawl through insultingly repetitive indoor environments, you have to do so while fighting countless popcorn equivalents and their big brothers, which, surprisingly, also explode! Really, really wrong move, Bungie.

The ticks and baby Skaarj from Unreal. I hate spider missions. I simply hate them, and these are spiders with different skins. They respawn, they're not fun to fight, and they make the most embarrassing level of the game (Sunspire) only that much worse.

Lost Souls and Trites/Ticks in Doom 3, Will-o-the-Wisps in Oblivion, the ape trigens in Far Cry (the rest were okay), the baby headcrabs from the Gonarch in Half-Life, rail gun mercenaries in Red Faction, eyeball robots in Xargon, the Thief Bot in Descent 2, Giant Spiders and Zombies in Dark Messiah, the beetle demons in Diablo 2.

That's all I can think of for the moment.

Oh hell yeah. In fact, every lightning enchanted enemy in Diablo 2 was a pain in the ass.

Rofl!

You know, I didn't know what you guys were talking about until I hit the "All Ghillied Up" level last night. OMFG! At that part where the dog is chewing on a dead body, and MacMillan tells you to walk around it, well everything was going okay until the dog turned around and started growling at me. I lost my nerve thinking that it was going to attack me, so I shot it in the head. Then a whole pack of the beasties came and ripped out my throat. :o

I agree with the 12 year old part but what's wrong with porn sprays? They're hot,lol.

Fixed. :?

the generic "pop up enemies" from just about all MMO's....why do devs insist on making the damn annoying enemies which randomly pop up from the ground, or drop down from trees, or just rnadomly appear out of stealth...these mobs annoy me so much its unbelievable....marriage0

Ahh, you beat me too it. Guild Wars has a bunch of these things. It is so frustrating to finish off five devourers only to face five more that pop up two feet down the road.

Those screaming headless guys (with bombs in their hands) from Serious Sam.

God, they were annoying.

Those basterds with the bombs in their hands, I agree.

The first 5 times you meet them, they are simply awesome. After these 5 times. GRRR!

I thought they were cool throughout the whole game. I'm surprised people are annoyed by them, they weren't ever difficult to deal with.

I got a few.

Those MG42 toting super nazi soldiers from Medal of Honor: Airborne. Practically impossible to kill, even with like 10 headshots. Not to mention, they are totally out of the normal theme of MOH which has never really done anything like that before, thankfully.

Some of the enemies in Rainbow 6 Vegas use the same dialogue over and over and over and gets reeaally annoying.

"I think I heard something" "Maaaaan you're too nervous!"

The Flak 88's in the COH singleplayer. Can destroy just about anything from anywhere on the map.

The Engineer bots in Battlefield 2, especially on Expert level. They always seem to run towards you when you're reloading, and those shotguns do major damage. Come up against them in close range then you're stuffed.

I sort of liked the Flood in Halo. Mixed things up a bit, forced you to use different tactics and was fun blowing both their arms off with the shotgun.

I might think of some more later.

And on that level, trust me, the hits just keep on comin'. There's more of the ragged little beasties on that level than any other. And by the way, Price is their favorite flavour.
