When it comes down to the presentation, the audio, the graphics It's obviously a great package with everything you'd want in a video game. This is probably the best looking game out right now. Not in a detailed manner, but in a lively, "look at that" type way. Beautiful game. Slick, pretty, humorous and awesome. From shooting guns, blasting bombs, grinding rails, flying spaceships, sky-diving, puzzles And while you're tackling all the fun things to do in this game, not once will you complain about the controls.
They have the controls down sooo well. If you fall off a cliff, miss a jump, aim poorly The sixaxis control is used really well also I even thought the Twister weapon was fun, as long as you're not facing a shooting enemy, you should be just fine. Though, some people didn't enjoy this weapon at all. Also there were some glitch moments which was very surprising, saw some floating debris, Ratchet getting slightly stuck in places, but all in all, these are minor things that I could really care less about.
Did it hinder my game-play at all? Did it ruin the beauty and controls? Nope, nope, nope. Also people are complaining about the difficulty. They find it as easy or easier than the past Ratchet and Clank games. I personally thought it was fine, but overall, I wouldn't mind a tougher experience. But hell, if you really want a tougher experience, just don't buy any of the armor. Still easy?
This is can be increased by earning experience points from defeating enemies, up to Ratchet can also purchase armor from a GrummelNet armor vendor which can reduce the amount of damage taken. Tools of Destruction features fifteen completely new weapons. The Combuster and the Fusion Bomb are immediately available for free, while others are either purchased from vendors with bolts, discovered on planets, or in the case of the RYNO IV, obtained from the Smuggler once all holo-plans are acquired.
Weapons can be upgraded from V1 up to V5, at which point its functionality changes, and in challenge mode, an Omega version of the weapon can be purchased, allowing it to be upgraded five more times to VX. Each weapon can also be upgraded using Raritanium from weapon vendors to improve it in areas such as rate of fire, ammunition, and damage, with each also including a special upgrade that, once unlocked, change the weapon significantly.
The game also features eight devices, which provide support in battle. These include the Groovitron , Mr. Zurkon , Transmorpher and Visi-Copter.
Devices cannot be upgraded with the exception of the Groovitron, which can be upgraded to the Gold Groovitron when purchased , and ammunition is scarce, meaning they are mostly used in emergencies. Fourteen gadgets are featured in the game, of which five are original. Other gadgets are earned by completing objectives and are required to progress further through the game.
In some sections, the player controls Clank, who can command the Zoni to complete puzzles and traverse areas. Zoni control is similar to Gadgebot control from previous games, with some differences. The Zoni automatically fire at nearby enemies and allow Clank to slow down time on his own, allowing him to bypass quickly-moving obstacles.
They can be commanded to use Levitate, allowing Clank to hover for a certain amount of time; to use Manipulate, allowing them to fix objects provided he controls enough at a time ; or to use Charge Up, energizing an object allowing Clank to proceed using up the Zoni in the process. The player sometimes flies the Aphelion through on-rails sections. The Aphelion can move and aim its weapons anywhere on the screen, but is confined to the set path on-rails. The player is tasked to survive through this section and defeat the boss at the end before proceeding.
Along the path, the player should destroy several ships to earn bolts, with larger ships arriving with exposed weak points that can be destroyed to take down the ships. Asteroids can also be destroyed to earn bolts.
During these sections, the player sometimes is given control of Clank, who pilots the turret on the back of the ship, and the player must destroy incoming enemies and projectiles to survive. Once the boss is reached, the player must destroy the boss' weak points to defeat the boss and move on. Tools of Destruction takes place in the Polaris Galaxy, which is ruled by the cragmite Emperor Tachyon.
After leaving planet Kerwan, Ratchet explores several sectors of the galaxy, as well as a few locations in space.
The Polaris Galaxy was once home to the lombaxes after they had defeated the cragmites during the Great War , but Tachyon had since drove the lombaxes to near extinction. Abandoned Lombax technology can be found on many planets in the galaxy, such as Fastoon , Sargasso and Rykan V. Much of it has been found by Max Apogee , a lombax explorer who kept his findings in Apogee Space Station , now home to his daughter Talwyn.
Much of the knowledge of the galaxy is contained within the IRIS supercomputer. Emperor Tachyon controls much of the galaxy, with his drophyd armies defending his own territory and searching the galaxy for lombax technology. There are several planets not ruled by Tachyon, with Igliak as the capital. The galaxy is also home to Space Pirates led by Captain Slag , who attack and loot ships around the galaxy from their hideouts such as Ardolis.
Several planets are also controlled by the kerchu , some of the galaxy's greatest architects but also fierce defenders of their territory and hostile to outsiders. At the start of the game, Ratchet and Clank were on planet Kerwan trying to complete one of Ratchet's new vehicles, the nuclear-powered rocket sled.
While Ratchet was assuring him that the vehicle would work fine, Clank received a distress call from Qwark , who was stationed at the Planetary Defense Center. Before Ratchet and Clank arrived at the Defense Center, Metropolis was attacked by an alien race known as the Drophyds , who worked for a villain named Emperor Percival Tachyon , the last of the Cragmites.
The Cragmite Emperor was hunting down Ratchet, who was thought to be the last Lombax in the known universe and the greatest threat to Tachyon's empire. Tachyon tried to make a deal with the duo, stating that if they both surrendered, the Drophyds would leave Metropolis unharmed.
Ratchet and Clank tricked Tachyon; however, and fled into his warship. Having escaped from Kerwan in the warship, Ratchet and Clank were forced into Cryosleep by the ship's autopilot system. Some time later, they crash-landed on planet Cobalia in the Polaris Galaxy. While unconscious, Clank had a vision where he was flying in a strange city with a group of mysterious robots surrounding him saying, "His past is inside.
The duo made their way to a spaceport , where they met the Smuggler. The Smuggler told them that he would take them off Cobalia if they got the nearby Gelatonium Plant working again. After they agreed, he gave Ratchet the Gelanator. Ratchet and Clank were able to get the plant running again. The Smuggler gave the ride as promised, but only took them as far as Stratus City on planet Kortog.
The Smuggler ejected Ratchet and Clank onto the surface of Stratus City after a lifeform scan detected a Lombax signature on his ship. After fighting through the city, the Zoni upgraded Clank with the Robo-Wings. There they had to flee the planet via an escape pod to the nearest planet, Fastoon , revealed to be a Lombax planet.
When the two landed on the devastated planet, Ratchet wondered where all the Lombaxes were. Clank explained that the planet was deserted years ago. It has a set course which can not be flown away from which takes away some of the players freedom. Furthermore, the ship's weapons, armour and appearance cannot be upgraded as in previous games in the series. At times, the player will control Clank in a mode similar to previous games, using robotic creatures called Zoni to fight foes, remove debris or reconstruct bridges, and to power devices in the level.
Clank possesses the ability to slow down time as well during these sections, allowing him, for example, to make his way under a rapidly closing door as well as levitate. Weapons gain experience as previously implemented in the series, but in addition, the player can collect Raritanium crystals and use them to upgrade the weapon in additional ways beyond the experience path; weapon improvements are presented in a tree-like structure and require that all previous upgrades be obtained for that weapon first before later upgrades can be purchased.
Once a certain group of upgrades are unlocked, they'll open up the equivalent of that weapons Omega mod, such as Napalm, Freezing, or Fire. In addition to weapons are objects known as "devices". While they are selected and used similar to weapons, they may or may not directly damage foes but instead provide an effect beneficial to the player. The "Groovitron", for example, is a disco-ball that causes all foes to dance for a brief time, allowing the player to deal with them while distracted.
The carrying capacity of such devices are generally very low 2 or 3 units for each. Device vendors in addition to weapon vendors can be found in the game, and device ammo can be found in Raritanium chests, although these are usually hard to find or placed in hidden places. Armor can be bought from an armor vendor on certain planets. Each upgrade to the armor decreases the amount of damage the player takes from enemy weapons. Each armour upgrade costs a large amount of bolts.
The final armor in "standard mode" is the Terraflux armor, worn by Cragmite assassins during the same conflict. The other two sets are the Helios armor, designed by the Kerchu.
While the actual Kerchu wear no conventional armor, this suit does bear some resemblance to the fire-wielding vehicles used by their Pyroguards. The final armor is named the Blackstar Armor. In the "historical" holovid game "Booty is in the Eye of the Beholder", he is named as the leader of a band of ghost pirate robots who are vanquished by Captain Quark, and would have been the boss at the end of the level.
This will allow you to play through the game again, but the enemies will be more difficult. However, weapons will max out at level ten instead of level five, giving you an added edge.
During your second playthrough on Challenge Mode , you can purchase an item called the Golden Groovitron for 2,, Raritanium. After one of the most infamous manhunts in galactic history results in the capture of Vendra and Neftin Prog, Ratchet and Clank offer to escort the dangerous criminals to the Vartax Detention Center.
After a daring orbital jailbreak at the forgotten edge of the galaxy, Ratchet and Clank find themselves lost in an abandoned sector.
There, in deepest space, they uncover an inter-dimensional event that threatens the universe - and forces Ratchet to decide what's really important.
