  • @TheRealBlazingDiamond
    @TheRealBlazingDiamond 3 роки тому +6

    I think the key might be in position 3's tower. Maybe theres some iffy collision that might be used for a proxy, or maybe some invisible collision higher up that would let you big jump and glide there.
    Edit: I have an idea with the elevator! Right when you're about to get launched, just punch! Clank gets a small speed boost, although it would have to be perfectly timed, as it takes a bit of wind up, and, let's be real, it probably wouldnt send you far enough, but it would at least make that part faster and potentially safer if you get the timing down.
    I think that somebody should make a mod that highlights all pieces of collision. I dont know if this is commonly used, but modders could use that to find the spots where theres invisible or unpredictable collision, then apply that knowledge to speed running.

    Honest shit:
    I started watching your chanel because of Jak speedruns, both that game and R&C have been the games of my childhood. I still remember just how it felt turning my ps2 on after homework to play these masterpieces, and after about 5 years of watching your videos from time to time I still love them, I still thank you for what you do and most importantly for breaking the shit of my childhood most fav games. Keep up the good work man.
    Also, has all this been tried on ps2, both pal and ntsc? Since it's already slower it might be worth a look into if not done so already.

    • @MuchWhittering
      @MuchWhittering 3 роки тому +5

      If I had to guess, the game probably only checks for the helmet for the first fighter mission. The 2nd and 3rd probably don't cause it's not supposed to be possible to get there without it.
      That said, the 2nd and 3rd fighter missions are skippable anyway.

    PLEASE keep breaking down mysteries, new strats, and historical moments in speed running- i love the concept and i could never do it myself, but im DESPERATE to know more. Watching GDQ stuff is fun, but having the history and the how and why explained gets me so hype. You explain things and show them in ways that are so so interesting, and makes it make sense even when ive never even PLAYED the game. I love it!

  • @awareqwx

    Poki Skip might not be a viable speedrun strategy, but it does seem incredibly useful in something like a minimum% challenge run (or something like a wrench-only run so you can skip the fighter segments altogether)

    The question is, should Poki Skip be successful, how will the game react when you reach Gemlik Base WITHOUT the O2 Mask. Will it have Ratchet automatically wear it even though you don't have it, or will the game freak out and crash because it is trying to auto equip something you don't have?

    • @wildfluffyappeared
      @wildfluffyappeared 2 роки тому +1

      When I was little I used an Action Replay code to unlock all planets and went to Gemlik without the O2 Mask. Ratchet just doesn't wear it and the level plays out the exact same. The game assumes "oh okay if you can get to Gemlik you have to have the O2 mask so there's no need to code anything for that other than to put it on" and if you don't have it it just doesn't put it on and progresses like normal. It's like if you clipped out of bounds on Blarg station without the mask
