this mission is an absolute meme sometimes. I replayed the game the other day, and Errol pushed my zoomer across the finish line. didn't even look like I won.
Definitely 2nd Hardest mission next to the Water Slums one, damnn first actually completed the race with the help of ya 76 minutes later from starting this mission xD this seems to be a good 2nd option incase I miss a ring which is always a good option
Jak 2 has a weird failing condition for like all of its missions either you die or destroy the thing or someone else dies and that’s pretty much your only fail conditions besides select other missions ie racing missing a ring doesn’t fail until you hit the next if you never hit the next and only hit the win condition area it’s a win
After reading the comments, I must be a god because I beat this mission first try my first time ever playing and continue to beat it with little to no trouble ever since. Although getting the gold is a different story lol
It’s not even the Erol race this is the underground side mission race where you can get up to 9 precursor orbs for getting the gold record time which is sub 2:08. It’s honestly horse shit though. The pedestrians and cornering have fucked up the gold record time for me probably 60 times now at least. This platinum trophy is simply not even worth the time it takes to get because of this race challenge alone.

I agree! Especially with all his talk of "mIss EvEn OnE rIng And It's OvEr!" Then he blatantly misses every single ring himself without consequence.
Erol: “Ha! I don’t have to grab all the rings, but he does.”
Jak: “You already lost.” 0:50
Erol: “Nani?”
Jak: *Wins race.
Jak: Omae wa no shinderiu.
Jak has outsmarted Erol.
Who knew you could just skip the rings?!
"mIss EvEn OnE rIng And It's OvEr"
Apparently not...
Not me
Not in Jak 3.
It fails me instantly if I do
LOOOOOL Ive never thought about that
"Miss even one ring, and it's over!"
Huh?
Escanor: And who decided that
*proceeds to skip rings while keeping Jak under the rules*
damn this is awesome. Can't believe sub 1:50 is possible now.
Yeah lol
I got a 1:48 but the video corrupted :( I have the picture of the time on speedrun.com though
damn thats so nice.
Damn lol, I'm assuming it's RTA viable
Yeah, just don't hit any rings lol. Honestly though, I don't think it's worth it to save 3 seconds.
@@unreal704 - Maybe dropping into the canals is not the best racing line...
@@unreal704 I think it's worth it for a casual playthrough probably lol
i praise the earth you walk upon!
Well done, bro! I didn’t know this.
Omg it does save time after all... awesome!!
I did it with the skips and it still took me like 8 hours over 2 days to get 2:06.87

Water slums?I don't rememeber any slums being hard
Water Slims isn't so bad when you just punch your way to the goal.
Literally just keep punching through.
@@DaveMan1K Yeahh I beat the game 5 months ago aha
Dark bomb into the water destroys the turret and then hover board past everything.
@@IXLegion or hoverboard flying glitch. I did it like 4 days ago and it was super easy
They had us in the first half
Wow I suck so bad that I'm doing it and still losing lol
2:14 IF I finish at all gfd
Do you still get the gold rank if you do this skip?
Does this still work on PS4?
I tried doing this but it doesn't work for me.
wait....how is this possible?!?!
Can u complete the mission tho?!
How the hell do you do this?
Crimson Dynamo
Don’t touch the rings that he didn’t touch.
How does it let you skip all the checkpoints?
The trigger that kicks you out is only if you go through rings out of order. That why he skips all of them after the shortcut

I hope this works on ps4! Been struggling with this mission so im gonna try and see if this helps lol
Did it?
@@ya_boii_brad3597 it does
Oh yea well.. I got ..40 seconds. Bam. Lol I never thought of that
Is this "glitch viable"for the ps4 release?
Should work no problem.
@@unreal704 the fact that you still reply after 3 years is💓
Does this frfr work when racing Errol????
Yeeees it does

...Really...
If I knew this when I played the game, I'd scream a Whole lot less
............................ what
excuse me, what
Cool! I hate race in not racing videogame
why does it suck?
I usually hit the rocks and lose my momentum near Mars tomb :P
hmmkay gotta try this later lol
Fucking shit, it's even harder with this method. Time to skip this shitty level with debug mode.

I absolutely hated this race I could hardly beat erol or the other guy let alone get gold on this
