So here I am using the lava gun and it kicks ass! I love holding it down, doing an air flip and watching the vertical circle. It upgrades and becomes some shitty gun that has rocks that don't even shoot far.

I haven't played UYA yet, but is this "issue" fixed in it? I don't need a crappy gun replacing one of my favorites, again.

That was a pretty common criticism of Going Commando. UYA has the Lava Gun back, I don't believe I ever upgraded it completely but I don't think it becomes a sucky Meteor Gun again.

I'm not even that far yet! I just got through the level with the arena in it, then....it came out. But I will remember this! Meteor GUN = NO NO NO

 

[Gattsu25]

haha! I got burned with that, too

The lava gun was my absolute favorite until then...I think that was when I started using the bouncy weapon that split upon exploding...that one kicked ass when fully upgraded with all the modifications (I mean...2 bullets would wipe out an entire room type of kickass)


from gamefaqs:

Bouncer

bunch of small bombs.

Comments:One of the best weapons you can find. Like the Bouncer. Keep it in
quick-select at all times. It joins the 5 star club. Just for fun, point the

in shock once you see what happens.
Rank:*****, sorry, no ******, sorry, no *******

Yep...that's the one

 

[Matlock]

Meteor + Lockon rocks, iirc. Big damage, and decent distance.

 

[Ramirez]

I cant get into UYA for nothin,I loved the last 2 as well =\

 

[Suikoguy]

it changes, but has the same basic function
from hot to cold

 

[Gorey]

It gets better in UYA, no worries. The extra 'freeze' ellement is fun stuff.

Ok I just finished Going Commando, and I have to say something.


IS THAT THE FUCKING ENDING?

I finished defeating the giant protopet, and I thought I had to do a bit more....and that's it? Seriously, the endings for these games just aren't...there. I hope UYA at least gives me a bit more closure! (I know all 3 aren't exactly directly linked, but still!)

After finishing this game, change the title to this thread to "the ending sucks".


By the way, are there any deals on Jak / Ratchet 3? Or at least the cheapest you can find.

 

[Wario64]

What, the lava gun sucked. Meteor Gun plus upgrades rocked as Matlock mentioned. You guys are on crack

IS THAT THE FUCKING ENDING?

That's just how I felt. -_-;;;

The in-game cutscenes were far longer then the ending was. Did their budget run low or something? I didn't enjoy the game to begin with but the ending really dragged the whole thing down for me.

 

[Ironclad]

I was talking to the guy who programmed and implemented the lava gun/meteor gun and he agreed with me when I said that the meteor gun completely defeated the purpose of the lava gun. The meteor gun doesn't really work well in a continious stream.

Spoiler

Oh yeah, and the Liquid Hydrogen Gun is the best weapon in any game to date!

 

[M3wThr33]

Yeah, I did beat it recently, too and was completely waiting for a Quark battle.
Pfft, that bouncer gun took care of the protopet easy. I played through it a bit more trying out the First-Person mode, but it was weird. I prefer the left stick for Turn/Move and the Right for look around and strafe. (That way I can still navigate a level and use the face buttons in a jiffy.)
