Ratchet & Clank: Past Titles

[John_469]

The new R&C Collection has a serious error in game 2 of the 3 original PS2 games. Specifically the bug is in Going Commando. When you get to Planet Snivelak and get as far as the two force field areas you cannot advance even after killing all the enemies in the area. In the original PS2 game killing all the enemies deactivated the force field allowing you to advance to the next challenge. This means you cannot rescue Angela on Snivelak as required to advance further in the game. Does anyone know how to get Sony, Insomniac Games or Idol Minds to get his bug fixed?

You probably want to go to the R&C forums

StefanForsell24, if you mean Insomniac Games' forums, they have nothing to do with the HD collection and tell us to take our complaints to Sony if we want them to be heard. This is as close to Sony as I can figure, but if there's anywhere else, let me know.

I know Idol Minds did the compilation. They somehow changed Insomniac Games code making the game unwinnable. Sonyor someone should take an interest in having happy customers.

This is very disheartening considering I am playing the first Ratchet and Clank in the HD collection right now, and going for the platinum trophy - I was planning on moving right along to Going Commando HD but if there is this bad of a glitch, I might just hold off until it gets patched or otherwise fixed. 

Is everyone experiencing this or is it only certain people?

I actually encountered the same problem. The solution? Reload the game. I beat the boss right after that, and did it all without having bought any armor so far.

I tried reloading several times and it didn't fix the problem for me... Annoying.

[davidboban]

Actually, I fixed it. Here's what you do...

There are two areas where this force field thing happens. The first is right after the first jet fighter thing you fight. You will come up to a purple nanotech box. Don't break it. If you do the force field thing will happen and you're going to be trapped forever. If you just ignore it and move on you'll be fine.

The second time this happens is after the next floor lazer things you pass. Again, don't break the purple nanotech box. It will trigger the force field and you're screwed. If you look closely you can see 6 guys behind transparent green walls waiting for you. You need to kill them behind those walls for to advance. Use your Mini-Rocket gun or Mini-Nuke to blow them up through the walls. Once you kill them behind the walls you can break the purple nanotech box and go fight the boss.

Good luck, have fun.

I have the new game and I didn't encounter the problem.  It worked just fine.

In Challenge Mode, you can use the FPM glitch to reach the giant robot, so it wouldn't matter if the problem comes back.  Just FPM to the right after crossing the bridge, and come around to the giant robot from the other direction where there are no enemies.
