I was a Halo fan before I registered. I became a Marathon fan after I registered.
"You are really good at killing things. I'm impressed." - Durandal
"Welcome back. I'm sure you're wondering why you were in stasis, what happened to the Marathon and Tau Ceti, and most of all where your rocket launcher and fusion gun are. There'll be plenty of time for explanations later." - Durandal
I thought I might give some useful tips or rules for the Marathon Trilogy. Some rules or tips may only apply to a certain game, I will put a note on the side to alert you. Eg: Frog blast the vent core! (M2). Feel free to leave suggestions for new rules/tips.
1. Don't run in guns blazing unless you have health to spare
2. Always restore health/shields when you have the chance
3. There are always bigger guns nearby
4. There are always secrets
5. If a BOB is happy to see you, kill it (M1)
6. If the floor isn't full of dead Pfhor then you haven't benn there
7. If the room/area has Pfhor in it then you haven't been there
8. If you haven't been there then you haven't been there
9. When in doubt, USE YOUR MAP
10. No level is easy
11. Never underestimate the versatility of the .44 MEGA Class.
12. Don't even try to grasp how to reload the Combat Shotguns.
13. Save your shotgun ammo (M2)
14. Don't abuse the W key (Or whatever key you use for run). You run at about the land speed record, not a snails pace like most modern shooters.
