Ratchet And Clank: Going Commando - Strategy Guide (Page 02)

Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Ratchet And Clank: Going Commando - Strategy Guide (Page 02).

Platinum bolt: Jump off the edge near your ship, and fly toward the 
base, you'll see the platinum bolt and a levitator pad to get back to 
the top.

Go straight and climb the ladder on the left. Complete the infiltrator 
puzzle and go inside. Use the levitator pads to get to a room to turn 
off the force field, and a new cut scene. Go out of the room by the new 
door opening, and look for other doors to go in. You'll find one with 
another levitator pad, fly to the end of the path and buy the Quark 
Action Figure. Now go to Planet Gorn.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Planet Gorn - Thugs-4-Less Fleet

Again, no real strategy; just kill all the big ships in the level, and 
ignore the little ships unless you need missiles, shields, or just want 
raritanium.

Platinum bolt: Get to challenge 4 and fly through all the rings for a 
platinum bolt at the finish ring.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Planet Snivelak - Thug HQ

 From the start, use your swingshot to get across the gap to the 
building.

Nano-tech boost: On the last swingshot, swing back and forth till you 
get enough height to reach the nano-tech boost.

Go through the building and swingshot across the other versa targets. 
Use your swing shot to bring the rail down to grind on. Grind around 
the rail, till you get to the bottom, then walk up the pillar, and 
activate the dynamos and platforms for you to jump on will move around 
the pillar. Get to the top, now walk to the left, use your minirocket 
tube to take out the Attack-Copters. Walk down the building and across 
the bridge and use the boost to get across the gap. Go to the armor 
vendor and buy the electrosteel.

Platinum bolt: After using the boost to get near the armor vendor, look 
to the right at the building. Glide over there and use your dynamo to 
traverse the wall. Get to the top into the room and the platinum bolt 
is there. (After you get the mapper, the green area will not go away)

Go next to the armor vendor behind the bridge and take out the Megacorp 
Hover Tank v2.0's. Kill everything on the bridge, and get into the town 
area. Take a left, and walk down this way, go all the way to the end 
then take a right. Continue to follow this path, and take another right 
at the end of it. Break the boxes in the center and an ambush will 
happen. Kill the enemies and then take another right, a cut scene will 
play and you will need to defeat the Giganto Mech.

To defeat the mech, go to all the boosts, and launch up to a turret. 
Shoot the mech and the satellites he shoots at you. When he starts to 
pound his chest and come near you, exit the turret (triangle button), 
and run to a new boost for a new turret. Continue to do that till the 
mech is killed, it is very time consuming. After you defeat him and cut 
scene will play, then go to Planet Smolg.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Planet Smolg - Distribution Facility

At the start, go across the platforms on the right, to the ship, across 
some more platforms, and through a building. Now use the levitator pad 
to fly straight over to a big floating platform. Get to that one and 
run straight to the other levitator pad and fly to the next platform.

Platinum bolt: On the 3rd platform, look up for a platform in the sky, 
use the levitator pad to fly up to it, get on top of it where the 
platinum bolt is.

Now, fly to the 4th platform taking out some enemies. Go inside of the 
room, and jump on the levitator pad, and fly in-between the energy 
strings to the 5th platform. From the 5th platform, fly to the 6th, and 
go inside the building, then fly out of the top of the building up to 
the huge area up top. When you arrive at the top there is yet another 
levitator pad, use it and fly over the big mountain of boxes. Land 
right after the mountain of boxes and use another levitator pad to fly 
to the last platform. Buy the transmission from the guy, and then take 
the translocator back to your ship.

After that, go to the left and use the jump boost, it will launch you 
to the ship. Press the flashing button and kill the Two-headed Smolgian 
Snappers, along with the Grulches. Follow the path up and around boxes 
killing enemies. Eventually, you'll get to a part with a dynamo 
activator. Use it, and the conveyor belt will activate. Stand on the 
box and jump up onto the higher boxes.

Platinum bolt: When you get up onto the higher boxes, walk bounce up 
them, turn to your left and jump on boxes that way. Go into the first 
person view and look to the left for the platinum bolt, when you see 
it, traverse the boxes to get it.

On top of the higher boxes you'll see another dynamo, activate it and 
jump into the moving platform. Traverse the rest of boxes; you'll get 
to a part with 2 dynamos; one on the left and one on the right. 
Activate the left one, as you near the right one, activate that one. 
Then go near the door and do the electrolyzer puzzle. A cut scene will 
play after you use the elevator. Grind the rail ahead of you. It will 
take you to another ship; go through here killing all of the enemies. 
Jump across the platforms that seem like they will collapse. Go left 
and up the other platforms. Complete the infiltrator puzzle and 
continue to go through the area. Go across some more platforms around 
the building and up another set. Press the flashing button to lower the 
force field, after the building you will see a shiny object, grab it, 
it's a piece of the hypnomatic. After that kill the rest of the enemies 
and look for a platform to take to you the beginning of the level. Now, 
go to Planet Damosel
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

 Planet Damosel - Allgon City

From the start, go into the building and go into the left room, onto 
another pad, for the last Giant Clank missions. To defeat the spaceship 
punch it when it lands or throw bombs at it. Near the end jump on the 
bar circling the ship and strafe back and forth on it. After you win 
you get the mapper.

When you return to Allgon City, this time take the right path, and 
grind the rails to the end.

Tip: Use synthenoids to kill protopets on the rails.

At the end of the rails you'll get your 2nd hypnomatic piece. Now in 
the building take the path that go straight. Kill all of the enemies 
and climb the ladders. Use your swingshot to get across the gap. Kill 
all of the enemies here. Continue to follow the path and you'll get to 
a taxi, which will take you to the bank.

Platinum bolt: When you enter the bank, go to the right and freeze the 
fountain. Grind down the ice and you'll get to a platinum bolt.

After that, wall bounce up the wall to get into the bank, and then kill 
all of the enemies. Go to the left and go up, then take a left into the 
new area. Go past the Megacorp pyramid, and kill all the enemies in the 
upcoming area to get the door to open. After that continue to follow 
the path, and ride the elevator up. Kill all the enemies in this area 
now, and freeze the water ahead of you to get up. Talk to the guy with 
a sock. You'll need to last hypnomatic part from Planet Grelbin. Ride 
the taxi to your ship and go to Planet Grelbin.

After getting the hypnomatic piece off of Grelbin, return to the sock 
guy; have him make the hypnomatic for you. Control the receiver bot and 
make him touch the flashing button at the end of the path.

Platinum bolt: Go back to the Megacorp pyramid and use the hypnomatic 
on the receiver bot on the top. Make him fall off and blow a hole in 
the wall by pressing the triangle button.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Planet Grelbin - Tundor Wastes

Go down the bridge thing, over to the rotating rocks, continue to go to 
the purple rock on the ground and a cut scene will play. Go into the 
wasteland and collect 9 moon stones for the Mystic and he will move the 
rock, make sure to kill the Arctic Leviathans for more moonstones. 
After that go into the door you just got open, and go into the mine. 
Use the glider to get through the cave. When you get to the end of it 
you'll have to get through the rest of it. Go through the door, then 
turn right and walk to the northwest and press the flashing button. Go 
into the center of the next room and press another flashing button, and 
go back outside in the next room. Do the infiltrator puzzle, to open 
the door and all of the bridges to be able to collect 16 moonstones for 
the last hypnomatic piece. After collecting 16 moonstone pieces trade 
them for the hypnomatic piece and go to Planet Damosel.

Platinum bolt: After the glider course, after turning right into the 
next room, look at the right wall for a receiver bot. Use the 
hypnomatic, and have the receiver bot go into the room on the left, on 
the top of a hill there is a flashing button, press it. The door will 
open, and then climb the stairs; at the top there is a platinum bolt.

Platinum bolt: This platinum bolt is in the wastes, look on your map 
for 2 parallel lines, its right in the center of them.

When returning with the hypnomatic, from the start, go right and down 
into the building. Use your hypnomatic on the receiver bot, control the 
receiver bot, and press the circle button to control other receiver 
bots. Continue to do this until you press a flashing button. Then as 
Ratchet climb the floating platforms to the top. Use the hypnomatic on 
another receiver bot, make the bot jump onto the platform and take it 
down. Again, continue to control bots till you press a flashing button. 
Now, swim through the area you use opened up. Go back out of the 
building. Walk up to the door (after killing the protopets for 
experience) and a cut scene will play, and you get coordinates for your 
final planet.

Tip: Collect moonstones to sell to the Mystic for 3000 bolts each.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Planet Yeedil - Protopet Factory

Platinum bolt: Grind the right bridge rail to the top, there is a 
platinum bolt up there.

From the start, go across the bridge. Turn right and use the hypnomatic 
on the receiver bot. Then use that receiver bot to control another one 
right across from you on the left. Kill the protopets and turn right 
and control another bot. Then just continuously control bots, and press 
flashing buttons and follow a path. Soon, you will press a flashing 
button that will make 2 swingshot targets appear. Swingshot across them 
and kill all of the enemies. A door on the left will open, follow that 
and control another bot, kill all of the enemies and door ahead of you 
will open, go in and press the button. In the room you just came from 
and door will open with a translocator. Use the translocator, and go to 
the new spot. There are only a few tricky spots. Kill all of the 
enemies, and you will get to an infiltrator puzzle soon. Another one of 
them are the moving floating platforms, you just have to wait for the 
right time to jump to the next. Another is the dynamo fan; again, it's 
just a matter of timing. You'll get to a part with 2 tanks, kill both 
of them and a swingshot target will appear. Swing shot over, and walk 
to the right. Fill up on ammo from the vendor, and turn around and do 
the electrolyzer puzzle. After that, jump on the platform near you and 
it will take you to the other side of the room. In the room coming up 
kill all the enemies.

Platinum bolt: In the room you just entered use your tractor beam on 
one of the columns, it will move, then traverse that spot, and grind 
the rail all the way around and get your last platinum bolt.

After killing all of the enemies go, and use your swingshot to lower 
the bridge, kill the enemies that will warp in, then just walk straight 
up to the door ahead. A cut scene will play, and then after that you'll 
be fighting the last boss, The Mutant Protopet.

This boss is not that difficult as long as you have upgraded the 
minirocket tube and the lava gun, and have bought all of their mods. 
Use the meteor gun and lock-on to the protopet (press R2 then L2 and 
hold them down) fire away and by the time the ammo has run out in it, 
its life should be more than halfway down. After that use the 
megarocket cannon, and do the same thing. Soon, you will beat him.
