"That" part: The game
>>739093630I disagree
>the sewer escort level>slums escape level>that one turret levelwhat else?
>>739094463The race
>>739094463That's about it. Although considering OP described it as That Part that probably means there were too many that parts. Jak 2 had way too much.I don't dislike the game but it can be a struggle to replay it sometimes.
>>739094463any time you're escorting people by vehicle and they jump out
>>739093630*ahem*
>>739093630Jak 2 is such a dumb game>>739096874but Sunshine is absolute dogshit
>>739093630Did OpenGOAL finish with Jak II and 3?As in, are they 100% playable?
>could never beat Jak 2 as a kid, perma-stuck on the mission where you have to use a flying bike for the fat dude in the city>years later as an adult, i not only reached that portion of the game in one sitting, but also beat it on my first tryi really sucked at games as a kid
>>739096874>>739098093Only snoys pretend to like Sunshine.
>>739103272I could never beat that section where you have to escape that tank with the camera changing to show the chase from its perspective
>>739103126They're "in beta" but outside of some very minor graphical issues (mainly in 3) I had no issues playing them last month
>>739094463Everyone always mentions these missions, but they never mention the one real THAT mission.
>women with big asses>women with big tits>women wearing thongs>high skill floor>collectathon platformer, shooter, and skateboarding>fun times with your orange weasel bro>dunking on fat peopleWe don't know how good we had it bros
>>739103662The game does a poor job of explaining it but you have to approach the ramps with a certain speed or else it won't trigger the bomb throwing animation. Once you realize this and learn which are the fastest angles to approach the ramps from this mission becomes significantly easier.
Jak 1 was the superior game. Everying after was bad.
>>739094463Slums escape is WAY easier when you know you can hoverboard faster than the guards can spawn in. Just maneuver on the docks and you're good. The real parts that suck are ANY in this stupid piece of shit.
>>739101408I never had a problem with the bosses or enemies. That platforming with the starting art is aids.
>>739103126Jak 3 still has a few annoying problems but I was able to beat the game.>Sound of Marauder cars in desert loops if you pause>The blur effect is broken in the cutscene where Jak first sees Seem, so you just see a a white screen>Areas sometimes don't load on time, like when you exit Spargus into the desert you can see through the world for a secondMore of a problem if you've never played it but overall pretty minor. I don't remember any real problems in Jak II. I think some wind sounds might be missing in some areas.>>739103272This, the game is generally challenging but I was surprised replaying it how pretty much none of the infamous playthrough-ending missions were as bad as I remember.
>>739103662there's no way this mission filtered anybody. it's one of the most nothingburger missions in the game
>>739093630>I'm gonna kill that STUPID DISGUSTING NIGGER PraxisHow did they get away with that?
>>739093630This game was great I’m tired of pretending it was bad
>>739094463Literally 90% of the game is like that. Not sure why we still liked it as kids. Maybe the novelty and cool atmosphere
Spargus, home...
>>739103662The weird part with this one is they just drop you right into it without explaining how to destroy the objectives.They wait 30-60 seconds to explain what you have to do and by that point you have no chance.
>>739104097Jak 1 speed runs are great
Jak 2 is fascinating because it really is a game of almost continuous “that parts” and when I stop think about it, there’s not very many sections I actually look forward to> entering palace via support beam > mountain temple > mar’s tomb I’m struggling to think of other sections that are major highlights. But I can name a ton of bits that are either bullshit, annoying, or just unfun.Yet despite all that, I still love the game. It’s way more than a sum of its parts.
>>739101408The shit you need to do to reach act 3, sure. The rest was kino
jak II is a polar mix of 'THAT level' and '...home'
>>739093630you can cheese seal piece at water slums by punching through everything to escape
I unlocked hero mode once but I could never beat the drill platform turret mission
>>739110827Same. It's very weird really. Like a part of me believes the game is far superior to 3, I love the whole progression through the city districts, the story and characters etc. But 3 is so much more fun to actually play. But then when you finish it you don't think about it
>>739103662Yup that's the one. I thought I was going insane
>>739110397Spargus is super comfy. It makes no fucking sense, though. >anyone who can't kill 100 guys is immediately executed!How does this town even function? You'd run out of lambs to slaughter in a single day.
>>739111475I hate how 3 locks half the city away and is in constant war, one side with the robots and the other side with the bugs, the beach town is such a shithole in comparison, riding the dinosaur kangaroos was fun, though
>>739111568Maybe the system they built worked and it's only outlanders who break the law?Imagine if you saw a few guys get killed by 100 dudes for disobeying the king. Would you think it's a free-for-all when some random dude shows up and kills 100 dudes?
>Race through the rings objective>Tight time limit>Takes around 3 minutes>One of the last rings requires a sudden, sharp turn>Fucking it up effectively fails youGood old PS2 era padding, there were a bunch of these in Jak 2 & 3
>>739111717We call that kino. It's old school game design. >Make this sudden turn or you fucking dieIt filters people now, because there wasn't a yellow paint arrow on the ground and a companion character yelling to turn. We used to call these sorts of experience "video games."
>>739111674Yeah the guys you kill are all marauders from out in the desert who they kill anyway. But still it makes zero sense numerically. But that’s vidya enemies in general.I also hate how wasteland is an island. Why not just make it a peninsula with the connecting part being inaccessibly mountains or something? The wasteland is supposed to be the endless wastes outside of Haven City. Why did they exile Jak to an island with a city on it?
>>739103662It had a bit of jank with the level geometry sometimes, but this mission was fun.>>739094463The one that always fucked me hard was taking out the five Hellcat Cruisers. That one has always been the toughest mission in the game for me.
>>739110397>Yo let's make a brutal warrior settlement where it's survival of the fittest and everyone carries guns>Cool, like Sparta right? So what do we call it?
>>739110397>You will never live in a comfy oasis coastal small town surrounded by walls and mountains
>>739110397Jesus, I remember Spargus being huge, but it's tiny.
>>739110397>enter evil mode>fruit stand massacre
This game is terrible. Worst fucking driving and gunplay ive suffered through on ps2. First wasnt even that good but it just completely ruined the series. The only good one is Daxter on PSP
The entire jak series is shit
>>739116526the only problem i have with the guns is the minigun and purple cannon being oddball choices to take up half the armament. the basic shotgun and blaster never really gave me any problems.
