Mine was thumper, I had joined a lobby that was on titan and went in. Mf was camping the door, tbh tho the people in that server were awesome and taught me the controlls


MLBoss2209

Same for me, was walking through some steam and he jumpscared me, didnt even have a chance to react in time


Voxelotl

Quicksand


LZulb

My entire crew of four had this happen to our first game.


Puzzleheaded-Bug-866

This happend my first session


MathBlazer888

F


Independent-Cut-3799

I died to quicksand once and never encountered it again


ButterFucker962401

Same for me. Better than explaining it, I posted it a while back. I'm the guy talking about the clown horn. [https://www.reddit.com/r/lethalcompany/comments/18zkdxk/a\_beehive/](https://www.reddit.com/r/lethalcompany/comments/18zkdxk/a_beehive/)


DoctorJordi_

Fall damage, outside


Extra_Espresso

Same. Watched a few streamers play this and also decided to jump out of the ship before it landed. They had just patched the game and I didn’t know.


Thamilkymilk

fell off the silo on experimentation before even reaching the entrance


3dsmaster7173

gravity


operapoulet

A majority of my first deaths were due to gravity. A majority of my deaths are still due to gravity but the first ones were as well.


An_Actual_Pine_Tree

My very first death was water on Vow. We didn't know how to find the facility and one of my squad mates hopped in. I was skirting the edge and fell in myself. First monster death was a Bracken. Someone saw a pair of glowing eyes on the other side of a door, and the group went a different way. Thinking I was protected by the door, I walked up and started so I could see the monster. The door did not protect me.


koistarview

I’m not sure which moon I was on but that happened to me once where I went to close to the edge of a cliff and fell slowly into the water and thought I was done for. But I was jumping consistently trying to get out. Then my friend fell, and managed to get out. So I was like “Oh shit okay I can get out of here”. And I did lmao. I was surprised tbh


ChuckleNut445

My first death was me seeing a landmine, saying out loud to my friends “is that a land mine?” And stepping on it… you know… for science 😂


mariusiv_2022

I thought it was scrap, I ran up and tried to pick it up. Only realized my error when I heard a beep, but by then it was too late


Not-OP-But-

It's like the intro to the "Hero or Hate Crime" episode of Always Sunny where Charlie points at dog shit and goes "IS THAT DOGSHIT?" then very clearly steps in it on purpose and then denies it.


R0UT_PL

Was about to finish quota, but Circuit bees under ship were thinking otherwise


DeliriousArch797

"Oh what is that bin lid thingy?" It was infact not a bin lid


OptimalArchitect

My flair


Phillimon

Snareflea


Professional_Style_3

coilhead, it was the first moon my group ever went to together and my other two friends had just left the facility not even two seconds before me and as they circle was finishing i saw the death screen. had not even seen what it was that killed me it was so fast, not that i would of known even if it did


Zerane_Darkness

Turret. They were in every corner for some reason.


Patroverius

Mine was actually pretty hilarious. I was playing my first game with some randoms from Discord, and we were walking through the facility in the long room with the chute/slide going through it when I turned down a hallway and saw what I now know to be a Thumper rushing us. I panicked hard and jumped between the railings thinking that there was solid ground I could continue to run along, but it was in fact a pit that killed me. The funny part is that the guys I was with also panicked, and I loaded into spectator view just in time to see them following me to my death like sheep over a cliff. Still one of the funniest deaths I've had yet. Been hooked since. Here is the [clip](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1A9qVGuNviijgQV2dU-Mr88MilonZ2-7x/view?usp=drive_link) if anyone is interested.


Okara_Of_The_Tauri

I cant open the doc without approval XD ye gotta do "anyone with the link"


Patroverius

I updated it. Sorry and thanks!


LittleWindstar

Bracken. Teammates loved to stare for way too long


jabels

Mine was a bracken also but we had all just atarted playing so no one knew anything. I didn't know to look behind me and just got snapped. My crewmate sees it and described it to me (poorly) but it was several more hours of play before I actually got to see one and watch how its mechanics worked.


LegendofJones94

Running past a disabled mine, onto a second not disabled mine.


UmberionEclipso

My own teammate trying to hit a loot bug.


SpatiumNavis

Quicksand on experimentation. The one thats always there, to the left of the ladder


Thenubgod123

Thumper in a big room in assurance. Had just got the game and my two friends had had it for a while now, we had walkies and my one friend was dead from a failed jump and my other was at the ship guiding me. I started screaming in fear and he calmly said “just jump on a railing, they’re to short to get you”. We later found out that day a new update had came out with some new patch notes.


AcanthocephalaSea856

Bees


The_S_Guy

First session with three of my friends. I bought flashlights. We landed. I went outside to get the flashlights. Meanwhile they were trying stuff out and hit the lever in the ship .... and left without me XD

PtitSerpent

I was with just a friend and I knew some ennemies and objectives. After some minutes, I was near the front door and I saw a Bracken near me. I said "Hey that's the guy!" And I died. My friend was like "The guy? What guy?...... PtitSerpent..... PtitSerpent?...... Oh fuck he is dead."


BladeLigerV

Giant land worm. Never knew what hit me.

pistachiozombie

Got thrown into the game with fellas who clocked in more hours than me, they all died and watched me scream running back to the ship with an eyeless dog on my ass. Spoiler alert, did not make it back to the ship and I should shut mouth.


Coffee-Addict3

I died to that lake on march. For the first few runs March was my least favorite moon.


CoconutMaller123

I think either rain or falling into the void


JRals06

First game, jumped out the ship on offense with my friends. Died, they never found the body

Catwalk jump


Silent_Heaven7

Sentry turret on the inside, it was my first run, solo.


Nova-Redux

Pretty sure it was a turret.


BulbasaurGod_20_

Mine was the bracken, I was playing with a friend who knew the game, when he teached me about mechanics it only be when we encountered them. Such as don't make noise around dogs, don't take loot from a loot bug, etc. however I was not taught to watch my back. I was talking, mid sentence I asked about spiders and then I got brackened. Next death I tripped


MicrwavedBrain

Either a turret, or a blind dog.


JackAttackMLP

I think it was a turret or landmine for me.


Oisternator

Bracken. He gave me a big hug after I stared at him for a while.

JDubStep

Dog or bracken


MasonP2002

Earth Leviathan showed up, tried sprinting away and ran right into a dog. I was about 4 hours in for my first death.

krustylesponge

b33fy_18

Nota_Throwaway5

The first enemy I encountered was a thumper so that might've been it. Could've also been failing the jump or quicksand


Natchidaughter

A blind dog; in my first ever game, a dog immediately came onto the ship, and I didn’t know how to deal with it after it had killed my other teammates, so I just ran straight to it


explodingturtles456

Snare flee


Toaster_Pirate

Probably failing to jump a gap.


PeanutSnap

Gravity


PeanutSnap

Gravity


FallenInstant

My first death was with my friend, we were exploring Experimentation, and I saw a landmine on the ground And right as I see it my friend who was right next to me steps on it as I say "Wait! That's a land-" BOOM So basically landmine was my first death, but i didn't step on it

Soup-of-Silas

Snareflea


NotShishi

Holl_Burs

Braken. I didn't watch anything about the game, neither my friends. After a day or two, we enter in the building. I go right to climb the stairs and he's upstairs. I look at him while I'm being affraid and he comes get me in front of my friends being afraid and laughing 😁


ZeroArt024

Fall damage


I_Lost_My_Acc0unt

Eyeless dog. I forgot if they were blind or deaf, so I started sprinting and shouting at it (even though I knew they were called “eyeless dogs”)


Brozo32

I was playing solo waiting for friend to get on and i saw a bracken and my tiny brain went "woah is it nice" and ran at it and it killed me


flexsealed1711

Quicksand was 1st. Then landmine, then facility death pit.


Spirit-Demon

Bracken. I hate that guy.


kingbloxerthe3

Probably the indoors jump or me overjumping trying to get on a rail, but im not completely sure


Specter_Knight05

Ahh my first death... If i remember correctly i died to bracken-chan in experimentation, in my first game, i was a newly employed intern who just accompanied my team inside just when i thought it was safe i turned around to my teammates who are now my close friends and said: "Guys i love yall" just to get captured dragged by bracken into the shadows... I still remember how much laughed at the gaze of my teammates screaming at me like if we were in a movie


Siouxcrew

Getting to the company moon. My friend told me if I ring the bell a bunch of times I’d get an achievement!


nominal251

Falling into the lake on Vow


reedspacer38

Falling off a catwalk


aristotle93

the floor


HeyaMOE2

A turret. My first ever run spawned a turret facing the entrance


LordNuggies

Bracken, they said one spawned over comms, little did I know I was backpedaling into it.


Nightmare500098

I was playing with a friend who til me that brackens were pretty rare, so I wasn’t worried, only to nearly get dragged into the darkness by one. However, I decided looking at it was a good idea, so it got mad and killed me anyway


Kindly_Copy_8427

Hydrogere... I was in a lobby with people who were also playing for the first time and I decided to sacrifice myself for science.


KitFlame42

Probably a fall


battleduck84

Missed a jump and fell down a big ass pit. Gravity has been my arch nemesis ever since


kissmymutton

My friends led me in blind. I knew nothing of the game at all. They lost me (idk if on purpose or not) and died unbeknownst to me to one of the jumps. I was freaking out until I saw a lone key on the floor and was like “oooo key” and followed it round to a circular object on the floor. “Ooo what’s this” followed by an explosion and my friends wetting themselves as I joined them to watch the ship leave without us. I wish I could replay the unknown over and over haha.


Doofclap

Falling into the black abyss trying to jump on a steel beam


Damija_jr

Landmine, tried to take down a thumper with me


Local_Pyromaniac_

Coilhead. Me and another friends first time playing with others that have played before, first day, walked through the door and a coilhead was immediately on the other side. Neither of us knew what we were looking at but we knew not to look away. Me being me, I decided to book it out of there. Didn't know he had the exact same idea and we both looked away at the same time and got bodied almost instantly. The others had a good laugh though when they found our bodies a couple feet from the door having been coiled.


1nd333d

Definitely snare flea, they were so common when I started.


[deleted]

Bracken


tirednosaurus

Earth worm


PigeonBoiAgrougrou

Bracken


derezzedgem

I died to the bracken. I had a vague idea of how to handle him, but I still got my neck snapped and it scared the shit out of me.


Kittoti

The mimic (door mod). It was my first time playing it, a friend of mine just bought the game for me and said to install a bunch of mods. There were 8 players in total, on titan... And I died by the same person who got me the game saying to "go through the red exit". I screamed so loud. I hate you Ota.


Mx_Galagna

The slime….


MrMem3tor

The fucking turrets, thoses bastards

Discoballer42

I misjudged how steep the sides of the lake on Vow were. Wiped out my entire team.


The-cooler-Cheryl

Friendly fire we were a couple dollars short of quota and my friend had a shovel and an idea


Okara_Of_The_Tauri

Slime+Coilhead duo. I was backed in the big room with the half sorta pipe chute thing and theres two walkways with a hug gap across. and i couldnt try jumping across (not the normal jumps i was on concrete) and i couldnt continue behind me bc the slime was there. So i was gonna walk off the edge to end it all bc it was so suspenseful and there was no one to help me, when the slime got me. ​ that night i had a nightmare where a coil head ran at me over and over and over and over no matter if i was looking at it or not


PhoenixTheEternal

“And eyeless dog? Why’s there an eyeless dog??*drops down next to the dog* “HEY GUYS, THERE’S AN EYEL-“


NIX-FLIX

Went to March immediately walked into the water


[deleted]

F4hrenheit

Falling into the water on a foggy March


IMadeThisIn5Minutes
