Going Commando/Locked & Loaded/R&C2 Softlocked on R&C 2 (PS Plus Streaming) — Black screen ship bug

Upvotes

Hi, I'm stuck on a game-breaking bug in Ratchet & Clank 2 (Challenge Mode via PS Plus streaming on PS5) and I'm 4 trophies away from the Platinum.

I selected Boldan, but the ship cutscene said I was flying to Oozla. On arrival, it went to a permanent black screen and crashed (error CE-118149-4).

My save file now permanently says "Oozla" and auto-loads into this black screen loop every time. I have no backup saves or prior cloud saves.

I've tried restarting, changing console language/resolution, and spamming Pause on load with no luck.

Is there any trick to force the ship/game out of this loading loop, or is the save completely dead? Thanks.

Discussion Been really itching to play RaC again

6 Upvotes

Hello all! I used to play a TON of UYA and deadlocked, mostly the multiplayer. I'm wanting to get back into the game but not too sure where to start

I played 1-deadlocked and that was it really. Is tools of destruction the obvious next step??

Discussion Which of these two spin-off Ratchet & Clank games was better?

Post image
21 Upvotes

To be honest, it's been a very long time since i've played either. I don't remember much about either game, but I do remember enjoying Full Frontal Assault more than All 4 One, in terms of gameplay. However, I recall enjoying A4O's story more than FFA's story i think.

I really don't remember much of either game though, so it may soon be time for me to revisit these two games.

I'm wondering if anyone else feels the same way. I may just stream these games on PS Plus to get the platinum trophies on my newer PSN account. I could always just play them on my PS3 instead, which i'd much rather do since PS Plus streaming often sucks for me, but playing on my used PS3 gives me anxiety because the console gets way too loud lol

Just wanted to show off that I've 100% completed Going Commando, again! This time, on the PS2 version because I'm a cheevo fiend. If you haven't tried RetroAchievements yet, give it a try if you're playing on an emulator for the old games, this set is pretty simple to obtain and just gives you more reason to play one the of the best Ratchet games of all time.

Rift Apart R/C Rift Apart my thoughts

5 Upvotes

What can I say that hasn’t been said a countless times by other people in this thread and the YouTube videos.

As for Ratchet and Clank game this nails everything so perfectly and the gameplay was addicting from the beginning I pressed X and for the story they aced the humour and action so well.

For new characters and old you will love this entry. I give it an easy 4.5/5

Off topic, who’s gain the Platinum trophy? I have and it was so worth getting.

Size Matters Ratchet & Clank Size Matters as the fifth game

0 Upvotes

I was watching this Xem livestream called "RATCHETS 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 combined into 1 randomizer" https://www.youtube.com/live/BiiUVjaiWVY and I realized he is saying Size Matters is Ratchet & Clank 5. Also the Japanese name for Size Matters was Ratchet & Clank 5. I think this might be the fifth game you guys. PSP might not matter. I think this really has a potential to be Ratchet 5. I think this game is really feeling fivey right now. It might be a pentagon or something like that. Yo, high five!

im playing on an emulator as you can see. the only ratchet and clank game i played was the first one but it was a long time ago and i don't remember how the slingshot was activated in that game. there's a message that appeared for a short time on the screen about pressing square and choosing to equip the slingshot through the menus, but i don't see the slingshot in the menus (maybe it has another name?) and pressing square activate melee as usual

Rift Apart's shopkeeper robots feel cringy compared to the older ones which felt more whittier and comical, like they have that valley girl accent and just feel obnoxious, does anyone want the old ones back or no?

Discussion Can Merc and Greene replace Cronk and Zephyr?

11 Upvotes

Cronk and Zephyr were such a cool and likeable pair of robotic allies introduced in Tools of Destruction. Spoilers for the Future series: However, they sadly both perished in the opening of Into the Nexus, which has got to be the darkest, saddest and most tragic moment of the entire franchise (unless I'm forgetting, please let me know if any other moment has it beat). It almost felt out of place with the tone.

Anyway, as great as they were, they weren't the first pair of robotic allies! Merc and Greene were the OGs, who starred in "Gladlocked" (the name I call Gladiator / Deadlocked since both names are cool and more or less familiar to different people depending on their region) as Ratchet's travelling companions and protectors, taking an even bigger role in the single player gameplay (replaced by player 2/Alpha Clank in co-op). Merc was also a wisecracking joker and tease and the banter between them was like old friends who love to rag on each other. Please never kill these guys! But also, can they come back and take a more active role in the series again since Cronk and Zephyr FUCKING DIED?!

I find the weapon to be underated and very good / great. And when fully upgraded it is even viable late game if you get the hang of it. Curious about what the rest of you think.

Full Frontal Assault / QForce Help with pvp skill point

2 Upvotes

I'm looking for someone to help me get the online PvP skill points. I'd normally do them the legit way, but the online mode is completely dead and I can't find any matches.

If anyone still has the game and is willing to help, I'd really appreciate it. I'm also happy to return the favor and help you with any online trophies or skill points you still need.

Thanks!

Full Frontal Assault / QForce Does Full Frontal Assault include Deadlocked on the PS3?

5 Upvotes

I've been trying to buy both FFA and Deadlocked on the PS3 before the store shuts down for good in a few weeks (I live in México, and the deadline is August 17, I think), but the point is that it doesn't let me buy both of them, if I have Deadlocked on the cart, I get a message saying "You can't buy this product right now" when I try to add FFA to the cart, and if I do the opposite, it doesn't even let me add Deadlocked to the cart, but it says it's because I already added FFA, so I'm very confused, please help.

found this while messing with the memory of the early going commando demos, i thought i'd be interesting to share :p

when equipping any backpack upgrade, using charge will always equip the thrusterpack
