If this also takes place in the middle of a battle sequence (or as an entire battle), it's a [[Scripted Battle]]. Can be quite annoying when combined with [[Trial and Error Gameplay]] if the events can't be skipped after the first time. |

* Many recent action-military shooter games (especially those based on previous wars) are filled with scripted sequences. ''[[Call of Duty]] 2'' featured many set-piece battles and events, from squadmates kicking down doors to carrying a wounded teammate (both impossible for the [[Player Character]]). |

* ''[[Left 4 Dead]]'' has one in the finale of Dead Air. When the survivors leave the safe room, an airplane can be seen in the background making a really tight turn and is low to the ground before it crashes and explodes into fiery bits, causing the survivors to reply in shock and awe. Happens every time the map is played. |

* "Fallout 3", No matter what, you will be captured by the Enclave after retrieving the GECK. Then, Fawkes will be there to help you escape, and lastly, (before Broken Steel) the game will end, weather you started the purifier, or made Lyons do it, you evil bastard. |

* ''[[Subnautica]]'': The arrival of the ''Sunbeam'' is a scripted sequence that starts about a month after your arrival on Planet 4546B, but it's dependent upon you actually going to your radio and listening to a couple of messages; if you never listen to the messages, they never actually try to land on the planet. |

** The various encounters with {{spoiler|the Sea Emperor}} are scripted to fire when you reach certain specific locations and/or meet other requirements. |
