In Response To: Speaking of suicide areas... (Bob-B-Q)

: I dimly recall a couple of instances where I ran out of fusion pistol
: batteries and grenade rounds from tripping that one high-up door switch on
: Colony Ship For Sale, Cheap! while going back and forth between the
: control rooms - usually mandating a frustrated escape into the waves.

: At that time I hadn't realized one could accurately time the rise and fall of
: the notorious pillars, and so wasted a great deal of effort and ammo on
: blind trial-and-error. Looking back, it's no surprise that the pillar
: timing was pre-set in M1A1.

While the seven pillar puzzle might drive you to suicide it's not actually a suicide area. Not in the same way as the bridge area on Defend THIS! or the hole on Smells Like Chicken...

Still trying to recall if there are other similar areas but my memory is pretty hazy.... I haven't played Marathon for at least 7 years.

Cheers
Hamish
