A fanatical religious zealot has gained a place of power on the "Council of Haven City". This man is obsessed with getting Jak kicked out of the city. By using Jak's connections with Krew he is able to convince the council that Jak is responsible for letting the Metal Heads into the City. Thus the council rules that Jak must be exiled into the wasteland. Even Ashelin can't save Jak from the council. The game will start with Jak on the cruiser that is escorting him to be dropped off in the middle of the wasteland where he faces certain death. =============================================================================== Missions............................................................Msn "Spoilers Warning" Just so you know, from this point on the spoiler threat is very high. *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* --Destroy Metal Head Beasts(dm1.01)-- [Big Game Hunter, Really Big] Recommended Buggy:N/A(You can only pick one) Recommended Morph-Gun:N/A Mission Difficulty:**/5 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Cutscene: Kleever: You guys looking for a bit of action? Kleever:The scope shows a group of metal heads moving through the desert not too far from here. Kleever: I don't like metal heads, almost as much as i don't like you. And you've got some proving to do. Kleever: Intercept those bad boys and give 'em hell. Who knows, you may even get a gew "toys" for your effort. Daxter: Why does it sound like you're leaving out the dangerous parts? Daxter: Jak I'm getting some nasty ju-ju vibes here, I don't have the whiskers for nothing ya know. Jak: Relax... we can handle a few metal heads. Kleever: Have you ever seen a wasteland metal head? Daxter: Nooo, why???(In Australian Accent) Kleever: Nothing, just wondering. Go get 'em heroes. Kleever: Hehehe =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Once you are in control turn to your left to find a Dune Buggy with a beam of light shining down upon it. Me thinks that is the buggy you need to choose. So approach it and press Triangle to enter it. Now drive straight ahead through the open gate out into the wasteland. If you look down at your map you will see some blinking green dots, follow them to find the metal heads you need to stop. Also remember to try and avoid hitting any of the rocks or trees you see around the wasteland, because just like in real life if you hit a rock-wall at breakneck speeds you'll damage your ride. These metal head's have a cannon on their back that fires charged balls of dark eco at you. It can fire at you from any direction. You will also need to avoid the creature's head at all costs. If you do make the mistake of getting too close it can and will toss you in the air a good distance. Also don't get trampled beneath their feet, this will result in instant death. The main strategy for these guys is to keep moving. Just make strafing runs and fire at one particular MH whenever you get a clear shot. If you see him launch a shot at you STOP! If you keep moving forward the shot will land next to you and cause damage. One Metal Head will be off by himself as you round the turn into their "arena" as I call it, take him out first so you don't have to worry about the others shooting at you. Shoot the buggy's weapons (R1) as you drive the buggy to stay within range. You'll know your shots are hitting him when you see little purple explosions along his body. Keep firing on this guy. It may seem like you aren't causing any damage but he will go down after a little while. Also be sure that you don't get confused between the other three of these guys. When you see it fall over on it's side you'll know you've managed to kill this guy. Now looking at your map again you'll notice that one other metal head is rampaging by himself as well. So approach him and show him what happened to his friend. this guy should go down without any major problems. Now the final two metal heads are smarter then the first two, they will tend to stay close to one another to make your job difficult. Just pick the closer one of the two and pour it into him. As long as you don't mix him up with the other metal head he shouldn't be a problem, just use the same tactics as before. Now for the final metal head, this guy tends to be running around in an area of the wasteland that makes it difficult to hit him without getting hurt yourself. Just do the best you can to avoid his attacks and hold down the trigger constantly. After hitting him enough he will fall over, but he isn't finished yet. This particular metal head will get back up again and start after you again. Just shoot him like before and he'll finally fall down for good. Mission Reward: Cutscene =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Cutscene: ???: Metal head commander report. What's happening? ???: If you lost that cargo and you're still alive, I'll kill you myself! ???: I want every dark eco crystal you can find! Time is short. ???: Did you hear me? ???: Wait! Not you! AAGHH! Jak: I don't like the sound of your voice. Daxter: Ha! You sure kicked sand in his face! Daxter: Oh yeah, that was good. Jak: That face looked familiar. Daxter: Now you're getting paranoid, buddy boy. Daxter: Come on Big Foot let's get back. This desert gives me the creeps. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Note of Special Interest: If you explore the wasteland(which i suggest doing) you may come across a glitch. Parts of the various bodies of water sometimes are missing sections of water. When you hit this hole you will fall down and be standing on black nothingness. To get out of the glitch simply walk toward the water, jak will suddenly start his swimming animation. Just surface and things will go back to normal. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* After this mission is completed you will return to the main menu. Here you may chose to replay the same mission again from the beginning or choose one of the other two missions. *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* --Make it Through the Mines(dm1.02)-- [Shafted] Recommended Buggy:N/A Recommended Morph-Gun:??? Mission Difficulty:*/5 As this mission starts move forward and to the left. You will see several Krimzon Guard crates and your first Light Eco Vent. Collect the ammo and juice up your meter, then climb the platforms to your right to start a cutscene. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Cutscene: Jak: It looks like some kind of old eco mine. When Mar built Haven City, he must have carved out these old caves to get at the eco power. Daxter: Sheesh, That Mar guy must've never slept much! Pecker: I'm going ahead to tell Onin we're back. Pecker: Watch your tail feathers Jak! This is a spooky place. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Note of Special Interest: As soon as the cinematic ends turn around towards the light eco vent. Enter first person mode and look straight up towards the sky. You should see a portion of a pipe just sitting in mid air. Why its up there is beyond me, but now you know a little known secret/glitch. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This mission is slightly different from the other ones. In this mission you get to kill things, use dark and light Jak, and try some new morph-gun mods. One other change is you need to use the local wildlife to activate machinery to complete the path to the exit. Now go forward and head right, you'll be following a fairly straight forward path throughout the entire level. The game will suggest you shoot the pillar across from you to create a bridge, so pull out the Lv1 blaster and shoot it. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Another Note of Special Interest: If you enter first-person view and look upwards you can see the shield wall of Haven city, but not any part of the city itself. Sorry but there have to be some surprises. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Be sure not to stand on the bridge for too long or it'll collapse beneath Jak's weight. As you approach the next platform several metal head's will attack you, switch to Lv2 blaster and start shooting. Be sure to eliminate the two metal heads clinging to the walls as well. Once it is safe open the KG crates for more blaster ammo and lower the next bridge. Cross this bridge and kill the metal heads that appear. Once it is safe cross the train tracks and turn to the left to see some descending platforms. Go down these platforms as far forward until you start to descend on another platform. As you reach the bottom use the blaster to lower the bridge, don't wait on the elevator too long or it will collapse as well. As you cross the bridge switch to your Lv2 Scatter and charge it up to maximum. Several metal head grunts will be closing in on you as well as some of the flying metal heads. When you become surrounded by them release the scatter gun's shockwave to destroy several of them. Use physical attacks on any survivors. Four more metal heads will be further down the path, use Lv2 blaster to snipe them from a safe distance, then move on. Follow the path until you are greeted by three more metal head grunts. Use scatter Lv2 on them just like before. Then approach the bridge at the right end of the room and punch it to lower it. Cross the bridge and stand on the platform to rise up to the next level. As the platform rises charge scatter Lv2, and be ready for the two metal head grunts waiting to ambush you at the top. Once it is safe follow the path and kill the metal head grunt waiting for you at the top with Lv1 scatter. Turn right and head through the gate and use your Lv2 blaster to eliminate the three metal heads here. Be ready for the two other metal heads to the right, kill them the same way you just killed their friends and go in the direction they came from. Round the corner and jump along the platforms, but stay on the second one and snipe the three metal heads climbing down the wall. Once its clear move forward. As you cross the train tracks again there will be two KG crates along side the slanted walkway with scatter ammo and a health pack if you need them. when you're ready go up the the walk way and through the gate. Continue to follow the path and switch to Lv2 scatter and charge it up. As you follow the path three metal head grunts will attack you. Let yourself be surrounded and release the trigger to kill them all. Approach the elevator and as you ride it down, switch to Lv1 blaster to lower another section of bridge. As you cross the bridge three grunts and two flying metal heads will attack you. Unleash Dark Jak and use a dark bomb to kill all of them in one fell swoop. Once you are ready, stand on the big circle to the left to activate the elevator and head below ground. Once the elevator stops go straight until you see a Light eco vent, recharge yourself if needed and stand on the small platform. As the platform descends charge up your Lv2 scatter. Loads of enemies await you on the next level, let them get close and release the trigger. Once all the enemies are dead two big orange animals will come out of a nearby pipe. These guys are called Kanga Lizards. While they aren't necessarily enemies they can hurt you if you get too close. What you need to do is to "deposit" them in the big wheel like device directly across from where the first enter. Once they are in they start running in it like a massive hamster wheel, this will release three platforms you need to cross the chasm ahead. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Note of Special Interest: Don't hit the lizards too many times or you'll kill them. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Jump along the first two platforms but stay on the last one. Charge your Lv2 scatter as all the enemies approach you. Shoot out the shockwave and destroy as many as you can. It usually takes two shots to get all of them so be ready. Once they're dead continue on ahead. You will see two more snorkel tooths ahead of you as well as more beyond them. Take all of them out with the Lv2 scatter gun just like usual. On the platform that had all the enemies on it you will need to load the "kanga wheel" again. You can usually get a lizard in there with just one spin attack. Once the little bugger is in there go up the platforms ahead of you and charge up your gun because a bunch of enemies are waiting for you. Release the shockwave as you land on the third platform and clean up any survivors. Then proceed along the path to the left. As you go up the path charge the gun again and take out this whole family of snorkels waiting for you. Once they're dead get ready to load another "kanga wheel". When the wheel is loaded three platforms start moving left and right in the chasm ahead. Jump onto each one as they reach the middle of the chasm. Use a spin kick to get more airtime if you need it. As you approach solid ground again charge up the Lv2 scatter and take out all the snorkels that are waiting for you. When they're dead get ready to load another "kanga wheel" but be ready because three lizards will leave the pipe. Knock the first lizard down and wait for the other two to get close to the wheel. Jump over the first one and hit him with a spin kick to get him close to the wheel. Then use a punch to get him inside. Now a giant wheel will be slowly spinning with two platform attached to it. Jump onto the platform closest to you and ride it to the other side and remember to shoot the snorkels waiting for you. ALOT of enemies are waiting for you on the next platform. Use a dark bomb on them if you can or use a combination of Lv2 blaster and Lv1 vulcan fury to kill them all. More enemies wait on the higher level of this platform but if you used a dark bomb earlier there should be a few less. Just use any Lv1 weapon to kill whatever's left up here. Now you need to load this final "kanga wheel" but all the kangas are on the lower level. Just approach the lizards until you see them start coming after you. Now stay close enough so they don't lose interest and slowly make your way back to the wheel. get them as close to the wheel as possible and punch him in there to release the final platforms. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Note of Special Interest: Sometimes in this section the kangas will disappear while following you for no apparent reason. Just suck it up and start over again, it usually only happens once. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ head through the doorway to the right of the wheel, across the platforms, and through another doorway to your right and punch the switch in the pillar of light to finish this mission. Mission Reward: Cutscene =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Cutscene: A crane lifts a nearby train car onto the tracks. The tracks are elevated up onto another set of tracks and the train starts its journey onward. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* After this mission is completed you will automatically start the next mission. *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* --Escort Bomb Train(dm1.03)-- [Playing With Trains Has Never Been This Fun] Recommended Buggy:N/A Recommended Morph-Gun:Lv1 Blaster Mission Difficulty:*/5 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Cutscene: A crane lifts a nearby train car onto the tracks. The tracks are elevated up onto another set of tracks and the train starts its journey onward. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= =Timed Mission= This mission is different to ones you have done so far. You need to make sure that this train can make it all the way across the tracks to the armored door at the end. Now someone seems to have left portions of the track disconnected. If the train reaches this point while the track is still up it will explode, ending this mission. In order to complete the track we are going to need to use the Blaster to shoot the red piece of machinery below the raised portion of the track. Hitting this part with the Blaster will drop the track allowing the train to continue moving. You'll know you've hit the right spot when the red light goes blue. Also a timer on the bombs has been activated to keep you running and gunning. You will also need to deal with a few MH's along the way. Most of them are small and nothing you need to really worry about. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Note of Special Interest: Avoid standing in front of the train car.(Though exactly why you would do this is beyond me?) It will run you over, killing you instantly. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1) and 2) Whip out your Lv1 blaster and shoot the two red glowing pieces of machinery. Hitting each one will lower a portion of track and allow the train to continue forward. 3) Continue to the right and try to avoid and ignore any metal heads that don't immediately require your attention. When you get about half-way across the bridge turn right and shoot another target to lower more track. 4) Once you are across the bridge get on the jet board and ride it down the angled path and get off. Turn right again and shoot another section of track. Now continue along the path and get on the jet board again. grind across the pipe and jump over the missing piece in the middle. Continue on your jet board along the path. 5) and 6) Don't stop to shoot the metal heads that attack you, just move forward until you see two more sections of track that need to be lowered. Shoot them both and continue to the right. Here you will see a single platform that slides in and out off the wall. Just take it easy and you won't fall off. Once on ground again follow the path forward until you see several cliffs to the right. Jump along them until you see a platform with several metal heads on it. 7) and 8) Ignore the metal heads and look forward, you should see two more pieces of track that need to be lowered. Move on to the left once they are down. Now continue following the train, you'll need to traverse a few cliffs and another pair of platforms that slide in and out of the mountain side. Just take it nice and slow, you shouldn't have any need to rush at this point. 9) Upon landing on solid ground again aim at the raised track ahead of you to keep the train moving. Keep following the path until you cross over the tracks. To the left will be a large chasm you won't be able to jump over. Just use the Hoverboard to grind across the pipe to the other side. 10) Move to the edge and aim at the track ahead of you. Hit the target and move across another pair of sliding platforms to the right. 11) Once on the other side lower another section of track and continue along the trench. At the next chasm shoot the large pillar to drop it and create a bridge. Remember not to stand on it for too long or it will collapse. Now instead of dealing with the few metal heads over here just bring your attention back to the train and the final two sections of track that need to be lowered. 12) and 13) Shoot the final two raised tracks in order to trigger the cinematic and complete this mission. Mission Reward: Cutscene =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Cutscene: Upon lowering the final section of track, the car makes a bee-line straight for the wall and an explosion occurs. After the fireball clears there is one less wall in the world. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* After this mission is completed you will return to the main menu. Here you may chose to replay the same mission again from the beginning or choose one of the other two missions. =============================================================================== Side Mission........................................................SdM This mission can be found only on the wastelands. You can collect a few Precursor Orbs by doing side missions activated at a tiki statue out in the wasteland. You don't need to exit the buggy to collect the orb, just drive into it and Jak will collect it. *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* OrbhuntA.................................................SMA Tiki Statue Location: By the racetrack Time: 17 Seconds Difficulty: */5 Orb Location:Before activating the statue go into first-person mode. Look towards the racetrack and you should see trees to the right and a rock to the left. the orb will be on the side of the rock you can't see from where you are standing. *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* =============================================================================== Racetrack...........................................................RcT If you have been exploring the wasteland alot you may have stumbled upon a racetrack. Now you are able to race along the track as much as you like, but there are no competitors available. But if you get bored you can practice on it in preparation for the full version in the game. To find the racetrack head left upon exiting the garage where the dune buggies are housed. You'll be at the race track when you see a bunch of red stones and torches. Thats about as descriptive as it gets. The starting line for the track is located by the orb mission statue, look for a thick line of redstones on the ground. =============================================================================== =============================================================================== Morph-Gun 101.......................................................101 This time around your main armament has undergone a few "enhancements". Each mode now has two additional firing modes. But for the demo you only get to try a couple of the new ones. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /Scatter Gun(Red) / /Lv1-Normal mode from Jak II, uses one ammo per shot. / / \ /Lv2-Charges up a Shockwave to deal damage in a greater area. More \ \ ammo the longer you charge the shot. 2-4 ammo used per shot. \ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /Blaster(Yellow) / /Lv1-Normal mode from Jak II, uses one ammo per shot. / / \ \Lv2-Shots Richochet off walls a few times until an enemy is hit, \ \ 2 ammo per shot. \ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /Vulcan Fury(Blue) / /Lv1-Normal mode from Jak II, uses one ammo per shot. \ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ Ammo- The two guns that should be used most often are the Scatter and Blaster. Both of these are good, well-rounded weapons and are effective in almost any situation. You will find ammo for these two guns almost everywhere you go. Targeting- Having trouble hitting that Metal Head? Just move forward slightly and Jak will lock right on that bugger for sure. Holstering Weapons-Simply hold the D-pad down and Jak will do the rest (Example Hold UP to put Scatter Mod away.) Wastelander Moves-You can still perform wastelander moves with all the levels of the morph-gun. =============================================================================== Collectibles........................................................Col Most of the collectibles you find in the game will come from Krimzon Guard Crates. These crates are just like the ones from the previous game and are best described as a red and blue box on the ground. Enemies can also offer a few collectibles. --KG Crates-- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Green Eco Pack These are very important on your journey. Collecting one of these will restore two hitpoints. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Ammo Anytype of ammo can be found in a KG crate. The color of the ammo shows which gun it is for. Scatter ammo will restore five shots. Blaster will restore 10 shots. Vulcan fury ammo will also restore 10 shots. Peace Maker ammo will restore 1 shot. Scatter and Blaster ammo are the most common types. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Dark Eco This purple eco will allow Jak to transform into Dark Jak if he collects enough of it. Pretty rare in crates, they usually appear in areas where you are going to want to use Dark Jak very soon. Just for the sake of knowledge, it takes 85 "pieces" of Dark Eco to fill your meter. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- --Enemies-- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Metal Head Gems Killing a metal head will release this gem from it's forehead. It is bright yellow and tends to bounce for a little bit. If the gem you were looking for should happen to fall off the edge of a cliff where you can't follow it don't worry. It should "jump" back up to where you are if your lucky. It is unknown what purpose collecting these will have as they serve no purpose in the demo. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Dark Eco This purple eco will allow Jak to transform into Dark Jak if he collects enough of it. Killing MH's will always leave Dark Eco behind. Collect enough dark eco to bring the pain to your enemies. Just for the sake of knowledge, it takes 85 "pieces" of Dark Eco to fill your meter. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- --Precursor Items-- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Precursor Orbs These floating brown orbs are very rare and valuable. In the final game You can collect three of these by doing any side mission activated at a tiki statue found out in the wasteland. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Precursor Armor While not a "collectible" like the others here, this seemed as good a place as any for it. You can see this item on Jak's left shoulder (your right). This item will give Jak more Hitpoints which in turn lets Jak take more damage without dying. And more life is ALWAYS a good thing. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- =============================================================================== FAQ.................................................................FAQ -- Where did you get this demo disc from and where can I get it?
