What hazard do you hate the most in Sonic?

Especially when you have 49 rings and you just need one more to turn super and blast through the level and FUCKING SPIKE BALL!

 

Nothing is worse than the crusher + conveyor belt combo.

 

I already knew before I voted that bottomless pits would be the most-hated hazard. I hate bottomless pits. They're so cheap and retarded.

 

Scrap Brain is one of the few Sonic zones I consider to be hard. Those flying saw blades scared the hell out of me the first time I saw them.

 

Spikes are a problem in Sonic 1 due to the spike bug in rev 001 and 002. Their even worse with debug mode on in these two revisions because you get stuck with no way of stopping it and you finally have to just press reset.

 

Odd. The only bottomless pit in classic Sonic I ever had a problem with was that damn pit in Star Light. When I voted bottomless pits, I was thinking more of Advance 2 and the like.

 

Water, bottomless pits and lava. At least 40% of all my deaths are because of them.

 

Although I has bottomless pits, Altitude Limit is incredibly awesome. Sky Babylon is not XD.

But I like Sky Babylon because it's hard and gives you troble, so you spend some time on it.

Sky Canyon fom SAdvance2 was terrible in every way though.

About the crushing obejects...

Huge Crisis is no fair with that >.>

 

I'd say bottomless pits, since they seem to be the most prominent way of killing Sonic these days as opposed to spikes, badniks, or even water.

^Agreed, one hundred percent.

 

My hatred of choice is but one particular bottomless pit. You know it, you love to hate it, every hack of Sonic 2 MD should get rid of it in progress...

The Mystic Cave 2 Pungee Pit! You know, the one that's about 3 screens deep and has a floor made of spikes? It's not bad at when you're playing KiS2, but usually you are playing as Sonic or a Tails that can't fly on demand. If your Super at the time, this is a psychological torture pit. 33 seconds till you die! 32 seconds... 31... etc.

Edit: Post 700 was about the Mystic Cave pit, I am not dissappoint. :D

 

Can I vote for bottomless pits and water combined?

I don't know about you, but there's just something particularly Nightmare-Fuel-ish about falling into water in the likes of Chemical Plant Zone and Hidden Palace Zone in Sonic 2 then just continuing to fall and fall until eventually you hit the Bottom Of Nothingness, and have Sonic's shocked expression engraved deep into your eyelids for the next few seconds, or even minutes. *shudders*


And, yeah, I kinda find myself panicking during long water sessions sometimes, hoping not to fall victim to The Music of CHAOS AND DOOM.

 

Fuck that barrel.

For me, it was the bottomless pits. In particular, in Sonic 1 Scrap Brain Zone-Act 1. Going up those bridges with the spinning platforms. Took me a while to time those jumps right.

 

That barrel likes to squash me when I'm distracted by all the pretty colours. That still gives me more grief than being stuck on the barrel trap.

 

Am I the only one who was never bothered by the Barrel?

 

Not at all, but then again, I didn't play Sonic 3 til I was 11, so, eh.
