Ever since Zomb1e-kllr released the tutorials on how to do jump scares, there have been quite a number of maps that have been using them recently. What do I think of them? I hate them. I have always hated jump scares and I will never stop hating them. Especially when it comes to custom zombies.
Ever since ZK released the tutorials for them, I haven't been able to go into a custom map normally anymore. I've always had to watch a video of the custom map itself just to make sure that there aren't any jump scares, and if there is any, it completely ruins it for me. I for one love scary, horror themed maps but if the map is just a simple map with a jump scare through every fuckin door of the map (I'm looking at you JR) it ruins it completely. Jump scares weren't even an idea until Treyarch did it in Mob of the Dead and Origins, and the way they did it is completely different from how Treyarch did it.
Treyarch's way of activating a jump scare: aiming at a certain point of the map from a certain area with a scoped sniper rifle. ZK's way of activating a jump scare: walking through a fucking door.
If you're gonna make a scary map, don't fill it with a bunch of jump scares and not even fucking take pride with it. Learn from Chromastone10 and add scary sounds and effects and design the map how a scary map should look. What do you guys think?

I dont mind jumpscares but I agree, the map has to be scary and the jumpscares should fit the atmosphere. I hate seeing a bright and colorful map only to have a jumpscare for no reason. I would like jumpscares to be in horror type maps.

I have strongly disliked the idea of a jump scare since prison mission by ZK.
When UGX play is ready to roll, a jumpscare tag would be greatly appreciated. A scary map is made through atmosphere, making the zombies much more fearsome should they be right behind you. Not an image of Pazuzzu playing peak a boo.
Fear of the unknown is the greatest fear of them all.

Well said. I also dislike them. Novel at first but they are not really a zombie kinda thing. They cheapen maps in my opinion.

If jumpscares were meant to be in a map, then they should be used in a correct way, and in the suitable and correct map too. Jumpscares that happen every 5 meters you walk or every door you open make a good chance of ruining the map. I also hope ZK is offended by the above posts and then stops making maps

There's no better feeling in the world than a warm pizza box on your lap.
I've only seen like 3 maps out there with the jumpscare. Prison Mission, Bridge and I can't remember the last one. I don't really mind them but I don't like them. All though some one recently said that on his map he might have a doge jumpscare which would make me laugh my ass off.

My entire map is a jumpscare, that starts very slowly and then crawls into your head, lay eggs, then hatch into little spiders of insanity, making you more paranoid with each step that there might be the most terrifying jump scare you have ever witnessed as every ghostly moan, wolf howl, hanging body give you the ever growing fear of something about to jump out from behind a door and scream in your pathetic, cowering face, dripping with sweat, ready to empty your bowels, the question is...when will it happen? is there even a jumpscare on my map? no, there isn't..... or is there? MuhahahahahahaAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHHA..... have a good time playing my map once it's released....

I don't see why a jump scare "ruins" a map. In what way it the map ruined? Are you really that mad that a mapper pulled one over on you? Did these jump scares blow up your computer? Did they make your body completely seize, paralyzing you from the neck down? Were these jump scares such a life changing event that you felt that it was necessary to post a topic about it? Can you please explain to me why the map is considered "ruined" after a simple jump scare, because apparently I don't get it.

I seriously doubt that he is going to release another version without jump scares. I guess you just wont play it because its "ruined" now.

Didn't Prison Mission have a rather scary atmosphere? Creepy background music, dark hallways, ect. I thought the jump scares fit that map quite nicely.

so if you want to play with jumpscares in the map go ahead, I wont stop you. But if others dont want a heart attack go complain to those people.
F.Y.I. The walking dead isnt even scary enough to add jumpscares. I wouldn't waste my favorite show by watching a really important part and suddenly a picture of Jeff the killer or Chucky or a yawning girl (thats right Bridge 1.6, seriously) shows up playing loud chime for a split second and goes back to that part.
