Support NeoGAF

[Consumer]

Anyone know the weapon level caps? Both base versions & upgraded versions. I liked Deadlocked's system the most; IIRC weapons maxed out at 10 then their challenge mode variants went to lv99 with a significant upgrade every 10 levels.

Also, how many weapons are there?

 

[Bare Grills]

Indeed

Spoiler

The Sheepinator, it's in the movie as well

Cool. I saw a weapon list but didn't see this weapon

 

[PlatypusDude]

For the love of God, if you read or post on NeoGAF, play he game on hard.

I'm also the type that never uses weapons after they are maxed and tries not to abuse the groovitron, though the late bosses on hard will test that.

Challenge mode is in of course.

Haven't played a R&C game since they added difficulties for the mainline games so I take it Hard is closer to the default difficulty of the trilogy on the PS2 then.

Edit: Of course I played those games when I was sub 10 so they probably were never that hard to begin with in actuality, but I do recall the original being harder than the latter two because it was almost a different style of game.

Preload isn't up for me.

Preload isn't up for me.

Check your game library, try downloading it from the page.

 

[tiggerkiddo]

Never really played the first or second R&C games so I'm good to go. May play the second one after I beat this one. Always love me some mainline R&C games!

 

[notaskwid]

Please tell me that the

Spoiler

RHYNO II

is in this game.

 

[Camjo-Z]

I'm making a little bet with myself for this game, if I can get enough work done before it comes out then I'll go for it.

 

[MvmntInGrn]

Wow I didn't think this was coming out so soon. I've enjoyed all the R&C games I've played and I love colorful games in general. I'll likely pick this up at launch or shortly after.

 

[hwy_61]

Probably skipping DS3 for this. I'm excited you guys.

It only downloads the static theme.

 

[Gamespawn]

Same here. Every time I check the preload box, it goes back to unchecked.

 

[reKon]

I really have no interest in a 'challenging' Ratchet and Clank experience to be honest. I'm buying Dark Soul 3 for that, R&C is gonna be my reprieve. Probably will just play normal.

It will be too easy and you'll feel overpowered. Hard is the perfect difficulty for an experienced gamer

EDIT: I didn't read anything after, and was clearly beaten in telling you this

 

[RK128]

Lets go commando! I posted the Ratchet 2 Retrospective in the main Ratchet & Clank Retrospective Thread, so give it a look if you want to see where all the mechanics that this new PS4 game has originated from .

[Lirrik]

This reminds me Beyond Good & Evil so much.

 

[potatohead]

Woahhhhhh... I was considering delaying getting this game with Dark Souls 3 coming but fuck it, just gonna get both lol.

 

[JSoup]

He's right if he's comparing the pre rendered cutscenes of the PS2 games to some of the in game cutscenes of this game. (The ones that don't use complex scripted animations). The PS2 games didn't use in game cutscenes, so all of them were very expressive.

Of course that's not an even comparison, just pointing out that that was probably what he was noticing.

This.
It's really only a noticeable difference because the original trilogy was prone to elaborate hand gestures for reason that I've always assumed started with "technical limitations".

 

[brickarts295]

Any Photo Mode confirmations?

 

[FelipeMGM]

I have emails in on this and will be addressing with PSN Team and Sony first thing in the AM

Thx for caring James, wil buy it as soon as the preload issues are resolved.

Cant wait to play it!!!

 

[TheBear]

I had zero hype for this but now that I know it's

a) made by Insomniac
b) 60fps
c) a fucking AAA platformer in 2016
d) apparently pretty good
e) $49 digery-doo dollars

I am now buying this.

It is $40 and it isn't 60fps.

Everything else is correct.

 

[TheBear]

EDIT: digery-doo dollars are the currency of convicts (Australians)

[QaaQer]

Is the preorder theme any good?

 

[Blitzrules240]

Is the preorder theme any good?

It's okay. But I went back to my Firewatch theme.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Is the preorder theme any good?

It looks good but the lack of sound made me eventually go back to my Journey theme.

 

[jstevenson]

Thx for caring James, wil buy it as soon as the preload issues are resolved.

yeah it works for most people, but not some.

 

[mikefrails]

Hype for the return of the boys this gen!

 

[Mozz-eyes]

Isn't it dollary-doos?

Boo. I was looking for an excuse to preorder.

[User 479360]

Please tell me that the

Spoiler

RHYNO II

is in this game.

Yes

Spoiler

There's a side quest that pertains to finding all of the hidden RYNO cards (I think there's two sets of them). They include the plans to build the gun, and are wanted by a black marketer. If you get him the cards, he's supposed to make the RYNO for you.

 

[Rflagg]

Great ot and title.

I am excited to buy/play this I have only played the ps3 games so it is all new to me.

 

[Rebel Leader]

Release date: Tuesday, April 12, 2016
Arriving Thu, Apr 14

Excuse me amazon.....

 

[Mezoly]

When is the movie coming out tho?

April 29th in the US

 

[RPGam3r]

Ugh. Image heavy OTs are the worst.

Agreed. The first image describing the game shouldn't be an image. On mobile it isn't legible at all. Pretty up the headers and what not but please let text be text.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Boo. I was looking for an excuse to preorder.

I'm guessing the extra gun wasn't quite enough for you, right?

 

[timmyp53]

Journey's theme is amazing but it makes me sad.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Journey's theme is amazing but it makes me sad.

Yeah, it can make things feel somber at times but it is also inspiring seeing him look out at the distance up to the mountain. I guess it just depends on your mood at the time.

 

[Icyflamez96]

see that solid 30 can be smooth huh

not even 60 but not even a big deal nah'mean

 

[Sniffynose]

It only downloads the static theme.

Same problem, I want to pre-load /cries

 

[Shikoba]

I was trying to hold off on this due to DS3, but screw it. I jumped on both games. Hard not to with Ratchet and Clank's lower price. I've only dabbled with the later R&C games, so I'm pretty excited to start from the beginning with this!

 

[Icyflamez96]
