Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

Re: Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

I'm nearing completion now...and I need to know this if I am going to hope of getting the platinum. Can I go back and collect missed Zoni/Weapon Mods/Gold Bolts?

Also, when I start the next play through on the new difficulty, can I use my carried over weapons? (Please say yes!)

Let me know if you find the answer to that as well since I know that Ive missed some gold bolts so far. Ive found every zoni to this point so not missing anything there yet but the gold bolts are another story.

You had any issues with the games difficulty? Im playing on hard from the start to get that trophy without having to play it twice and Im having a good time. The game isnt as difficult as I would have thought, although I have had a few occasions when I had to repeat something a half dozen times but nothing too major. My biggest problem is the whole clones system as I cant seem to figure it out for some reason but thats my only problem.

Well, I've run into a few problems on hard. The part where you are breaking into the building and have to fight off hordes of enemies while the tarachnoid(sp) gets the security code. Also, the first space boss battle, the one where you fight the huge ship. Other than that, not much. That clear enough? I will go into more description if needed.

I will find the answer today, let's keep our fingers crossed!

Wow, what an intense boss battle!

Beat the game, loved the final boss. The ending was decent as well. I chose to "travel back in time before the final boss" so I could get all zoni/gold bolts/weapon mods. There was also an option to start a new challenge save with all weapons, armor, etc. I would assume the bolt modifier is also in.

I think I'm gonna run through and grab all of the Weapon plans, Zoni, and Weapon mods first, and after that run through the sectors again and get the Gold Bolts.

When you start running through again, let me know if the enemies are still there and you have to fight them as you look for the gold bolts or if they are all gone since you beat the game? I hope that made sense. Im hoping that they are all gone but not holding my breath much either.

I'm gonna guess they're still there since he said it gave you the option to "tavel back in time". It would only make sense, if that's the case, that the enemies will still be there.

It would be pretty cool if they weren't though and you could just collect stuff.

My thoughts as well but figured it was worth asking as it would be nice if they werent there.

Finding some of these gold bolts and zoni's are tough, I just started doing the tournaments and have 19 zoni's and 15 gold bolts.

Re: Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

For anyone thats beaten the bronze tournament, did you have any problems with it saving? I beat bronze and silver both and decided to take a break and do other things but now it shows that I havent beaten bronze in my mission area but when I go back I have beaten it still. It does show that Ive beaten silver in my mission area which is strange considering you cant even play silver until you beat bronze. Any clue whats going on here?

Not sure, sounds weird. Has anyone won the Raritainium (sp) Tournament yet? Last challenge is giving me trouble.

Re: Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

OK, for anyone thats beaten the game Ive got a question as Im stuck on a part and about to throw in the towel...

Spoiler

Im at the part where you fight General Azimuth and I cant beat him for the life of me. I can get him down to about 20-25% health but then I die everytime. I do not have the Rhyno V gun, or whatever its called, and havent leveled up all my guns as I tend to use the same gun a lot but has anyone been able to beat him without having to use the Rhyno? Im so damn tired of fighting the same guy over and over again that Im just about done with the game entirely as I dont have the time to waste doing the same thing over and over again. Any help would be appreciated.

Alright

Spoiler

While the battle wasn't easy by any means (although I did it on my first try), I just used a couple of weapons. If you have the disco ball, the Rift Inducer, Buzz blades, Constructo Shotgun (with upgrade that stuns enemies) you should be ok. I love using the Disco ball whenver I am in any sort of trouble cause it basically just gives you 10 seconds to regroup, then I use the Rift inducer while Azimuth is dancing. I use the buzz blades from a distance while strafing and side jumping cause they are fast, and have great accuracy, just hold that fire button down. Next, When he stops to use his shield, I get close and use the shotgun non stop and always prepare to jump when he jumps into the air to slam the ground. If you run out of ammo, just mix in some Frog Shotgun, Pistol, and I actually needed the bombs to finish him off. And yes, most of my weapons were level 5 except the buzz blades and the rift inducer. Good luck man.

Spoiler

Also, i nearly cried at the 2nd to last ending. Ive played every game in the series, which is most likely why it hit me so hard.

Re: Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

Thanks for the info, I finally did it earlier tonight before I went out for dinner. I ended up beating it when I threw whatever weapon it is that makes a cloud in the air with octopus like tentacles that come from it. He was by far the toughest fight I had through the entire game. Now Im basically looking for the rest of the bolts and other extras before I continue. Thanks again though for the info.

Re: Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

Yeah, thats the Rift Inducer Awesome weapon

Re: Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

Well Im getting a little annoyed now. Ive beaten the game, collected all the Zoni's, gold bolts and weapon ugrades but I cant get the damn Samaritan trophy for completing all space missions. On my map there is one planet that is green but when I go there there is nothing for me to do on the planet and it wont change the status of it either even though when looking at it in my map screen it lists it as completed. I cant find any ships to hail either so Im completely clueless at this point as to what Im supposed to be doing. Any help from someone who has gotten this trophy?
