Re: Uncharted: Drake's Fortune

Re: Uncharted: Drake's Fortune

I guess this is not gonna help you much but I distinctly remember getting stuck on that part also and couldn't find help anywhere. The only problem is I can't remember how I got thru it but it wasn't difficult.

I'm trying to remember but I think at the end of the swing that instead of trying to swing to the out of reach ledge there is a higher smaller ledge at the top of the wall. So you have to press up just at the right time at the end of the swing and then from there you can jump to that next ledge. I don't think you can really see the ledge on your screen. At least that's what I remember. If that isn't it don't worry you'll figure it out. I was stuck on that vine for hours and then remember feeling stupid when I finally figured it out.

I'll take another look. It's that jump from one vine to another that looks impossible. I have stood back from that wall and looked and looked and I'll be darned if I can see anything vaguely resembling another ledge, but I"ll try it again this afternoon.

Re: Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (PS3)

okay, here's the area.

starting point


here you jump behind you to ledge on wall (behind you)


you're on the ledge and must make your way to the right to the vine


once on the vine the next ledge isn't even in the picture. It's just too far to jump


I still can't figure it out. There is no other ledge that I can see to the right between this vine and the ledge way, way over to the right. No matter how far I swing the vine back and forth I'm only going to make the jump about half the distance.

Sorry about the poor quality, but here you can make out how far it is from the vine to the ledge on the right. You can see the long slim lighter colored ledge to the left of the vine then have to look way over to the right under the tree branch to the other ledge.

Re: Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (PS3)

I think I remember that. I think you had to jump over something, not onto a ledge.

See if that helps.

Walkthrough

FOREST

Go up the stairs on your left, then left again to reach the dead-end wall.
Jump onto the coffin, then grab hold of the ledge mounted against the column.
Once you reach the end of the mounted ledge, jump across to the column behind
you, then move over to your right and jump onto the vine.

Swing across the vine to the right, then jump off to reach the right-hand
ledge.

Move towards the right, jump across to the opposing wall, jump left,
then again to the vine.

Swing across to the mounted ledge on the left and
jump to grab hold of it. Jump to the wall across from you, then ascend it to
the broken window above.

Another Walkthrough

1. Go up the staircase in front of Nate and then up the staircase to Nate's
left.

2. Climb up the pile of rubble you see in the corner to Nate's left up
ahead and then jump up to grab the narrow ledge on the wall just above
the rubble.

3. Shimmy to Nate's left all the way and then jump to the next narrow
ledge to Nate's left.

4. Shimmy to Nate's left all the way and then jump to the narrow ledge
behind Nate.

5. Shimmy to Nate's right all the way and then jump to the vine on the
wall to Nate's right.

6. Wall run using this vine and jump to the next narrow ledge to the left.

Two completely different things. The second one has me jumping back to the LEFT, the first one all the way to the RIGHT?????

I just beat the game a week ago but I cant tell what part of the game that is in your pics. Very blurry...

Don't ask me how but I can't remember what I did to get to that ledge but I can remember what happens after I get over that wall. When you get over the wall that's when you you first get the sniper rifle and you're shooting down at the pirates from a distance. So if you remember that part and happen to have a save file at the checkpoint around there you might be able to help otherwise you would have to start the game over on easy because this problem occurs pretty late in the game from what I recall.

Jim one last thing you can try is climb up the rope near the top and start swinging then and try jumping up at the end and you might be able to grab a high ledge at that point that you can't see right now. The funny part is I posted this exact problem on this thread about 6 months ago and I couldn't find help then. Keep plugging away. If I can figure it out you can too.

Re: Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (PS3)

Yep the same problem is posted on page 36 by me but unfortunately no one responded to it. I do remember thinking how pissed I was I might not be able to finish the game because of it. The only positive thing you can take from this is how happy you'll be when you do find the answer. It will be like winning a big boss battle except it's with a wall.

Here's the problem. A poster, trombone482 says not to swing on the vine????

Man, getting to the point of no return frustration with this one.

Re: Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (PS3)

Scoop, thanks.

Seems there's no mystery to it, that the jump from the vine to the next ledge CAN be made. I'm not able to do it, fall woefully short. I guess I'll just keep plugging away until I commit to the jump just right.

thanks, jim
