Uncharted 2 Crushing Difficulty & Treasure Walkthrough- Chapter 26 - Tree of Life HD

[Acks2000]

no way man...i did this the hard way. must have taken me over a 100 tries though

[Acks2000]

@TheOscarchelsea no you don't have to. just go to crushing and you will get the hard too.

[NiteSky64]

thanks for the video, felt dirty and cheap using the technique but you gottta do anything to get the platinum

[minustwelve]

Once again, thanks a ton for putting up these videos! I wouldn't have gotten past certain points on Crushing without them! Great job, sir!

[ferraro38]

Thanks dude very helpful got on the first try I spent hours on trying to beat him just by running around died countless times finally play this

[ThisPersonSays542]

Because I'm going to start my crushing playthrough and I want to make it easier.

[ThisPersonSays542]

Can you get the crushing trophies even if you put on infinite ammo and one-shot kills and give weapons?

[Sephyroth97]

@ThisPersonSays542 yes but to use that stuff you need to finish crushing at least one time, you can use those "cheats" bought from the store only in a difficulty level (or less) that you have already done.It would have no sense otherwise; do the easy level then go to the crushing with one-shot kills? XD

[GnayDrawoh]

thank you for the walkthroughs! got my first platinum :)

[GermanFootballPlayer]

Thanks man.

[ThisPersonSays542]

I've watched all the videos from Chapter 1-26. There's this great strategy I heard for defeating Lazarevic on Crushing. At the start,run over to that risen you see at the start and stay there.Let Lazarevic keep grabbing you and then keep punching him.Since you're close to the risen he won't shoot or toss you.So just keep on punching him and blowing up the risen.It's NO SWEAT,really.

[oOSupergrlOo]

thanks a lor for your videos!! they were very helpful :) I beat this boss in another way though

[DarkspineNero]

wish i known that before wasted an hour blind firing

[AbdulHussain99]

if you have tweaks you can use them in any difficulty level first you have to start the game from beginning on very easy make sure your tweaks are off and then walk a little forward the quit to main menu and go on bonuses and store and then put your infinite ammo and one shot kills on then go on game and change it to any difficulty level and then continue and it will have infinite ammo and one shot kills enabled already this is worth waiting 4.

[TheSuburbanHero]

Thank you. Sooo much.

[THERAINBOWFLAGBURNER]

just run laps round the pool and shoot the sap as he chases you its easy and doesnt make you look like an asswipe

[xBlackMagik42x]

Thx man these videos have been really helpful, finally getting my platinum, but btw there's a way easier and faster strategy of beating final boss

[88steez]

Besides my disagreeing with some of your views, great job in general with making these walkthroughs. I know they took a lot of work. I was still missing a few treasures, and came here to find them, so thanks. *thumbs up*

[elpeludo2189]

Thanks, if it wasn't for your awesome strategy videos I would of never went platinum.

[Snittioett]

shot him around 7 - 9 times.. then he killed me.. another stupid part of the game..

[ShadowSkyHawk]

the closer he is to the sap. the more damage will take

[Authoritya1]

why is the boss battle a deal breaker? look at the boss battle in U1

[codymchargue]

@Authoritya1 U1? The boss battle on U1 was CAKE compared to this guy.

I don't find this all that cheap. I mean, Naughty Dog created the climbing mechanics and the shooting while hanging. Trust me, I ALWAYS go the non cheap route whenever possible. So if I don't feel bad about using this, it must not be that bad. I think throwing 4 grenades at a time is pretty cheap. I'm just doing what it takes to stay alive.

[MegaJasontv]

@Authoritya1 i love that boss battle!!

[wuder9]

MrBr1zzo, great job :-)

[zipzap93]

I went a step further, I did the tweak glitch to get one shot kill to beat this guy. That makes it so all you have to do is shoot him once and then shoot a sap. You only have to do that 4 times. Instead of 12.

[Steffy3752]

Thanks a lot for that tip! It helped me a lot.

[thefallenone95]

4 times ? Ha! tell that to my guts . . .

Never the less, i love in a non gay way, i got mah trophy thanks to this guide, yet didn't use this one, too much stress :)

[Amit232222]

Just got my platinum!

Thank you for guide, you strategy is good and very helpful.

[Candylan100]

Just askin i was doing crushin and it said i got hard i checked and i saw i did two lvls in hard if i do those two lvls agian on crushin would i get trophy

[goofynewfie72]

Tried your strategy and it worked like a charm! Thanks!

[BaltoUAG]

OMG Thank you...!! 

[peteski2710]

It is naughty dog who made this game, i havent played one of their bosses that isnt bs

[hitdoctor24]

wow i actually thought it was a good boss fight...

[Leli196]

wow man tank u 4 this vid, i tried 9 times on crushing, thats fuckin stupid now im gonna try this strategy^^ thx man

[NostalgiaWrestling]

Thanks for the excellent, easy to understand walkthrough for Crushing Mode

[XIxRAINxIX]

hey i really need to know this. am i able to beat crushing difficulty with the single player store by going to mission select and still be able to get the trophy for beating it on crushing? plz reply. btw i subbed

[MrBr1zzo]

@TheOscarchelsea probably

[SuperGameProXD]

@MrBr1zzo use tweaks to beat the game easily

[ewfpivot]

I don't really like this boss battle, I think they should've just done a big action sequence and I think it wouldve been better if u got to fight Flynn

[2101unknown]

retard.. don't blame naughty dog for your lazyness, afterall you don't have to use this method

[aznkidnarutofan]

did you know that grenades work just like tree sap? well it really helped me during crushing.

[SILLUCITY]

the best

[lovedbysmokey]

ur vids r awesome u helped me get platinum thanks

[MrMattyy90]

i did this in less then 3 minutes with this strategy. i did this strategy when i hurted him 6 times thats when i start playing normal again :P

[TheSeaways830]

i know another strategy

easy done it in 6 mins

[ThePS3Commenter]

That strategy is extremely cheap, but I must admit, after dying a bunch of times on EASY, I looked up this strategy and I used it on easy, hard, and crushing. It helped me get the platinum though.

PSN - jeterpenguin

[RunescapeFtwful]

@ThePS3Commenter Wtf how do you die lots of tiems on easy...

[dudiaz]

It's easy on hard, but very very very hard on Crushing O.o imma be using this strategy next time as well.

[wrps2345]

Thanx for the 100 treasures dude!

[AbonEsCabron]

wow dats a pussy way, i beat it on crushing the real way

[pathofoblivion]

@AbonEsCabron ok then you enlighten us with your wisdom of how to do this the "right" way.

[AbonEsCabron]

@pathofoblivion im not saying how to do this i said how i did this, got all trophies except the DLC of April 22nd of course.....

[Parodeyz]

i think the First uncharted boss fight was better. it added a twist, but not some thing comepletely different.

[batmanisawesome1]

that strategy is hilarious!!!

[deathyou9000]

to make him go down of the ledge on the left side you have to go all the way to the left.

[jilla528]

thnx got my platinum trophy:D thank you so much for your awesome guide

[erdvilla]

Not Multiplayer but Downloaded Content trophies. Still fortunatelly they don't count for the Platinum. Trophies with a Plus on their image are DLC trophies. Recently many games add them.

[Jenko1996]

What sort of game has the easiest part at the end? I'm glad they have made a hard boss level, because most games just let you finish it really easily.

[PWXgame]

this game couldn't have came at a better time for me after being so disappointed with alot of games like mw2

[junkd]

Just wanted to say thanks Br1zzo for your videos. I got most of the way myself on hard but they were a big help on some of the trickier levels. Well done.

[JPLCR]

Nice. I'm gonna try this.

At least he doesn't throw grenades at you this way. LOL

This sure is an amazing game but this final boss battle...nahh

[JPLCR]

@mclaren450 LOL Yeah. That would be great :D

[naranord]

When I came to this boss battle at easy, I was like:

"Oh shit no... not one of those again... I'm traumatized of these hit-n'-run battles... they're just cheap and seeing your game hero run and shoot sap... wasn't maybe the best possible ending...

I think that the first boss in this game is the helicopter in the city in Nepal which you take down Hammer-style is the first boss, atleast at hard and crushing, and Draza is the 2rd, then the tank and finally...

Saprunner!! (new name for Lazarevic)

[TheChilipepper77]

so shooting him wont do anything?

[XResidentXEvilX5X]

cheap but effective but im not gonna use this. its too boring

[MabinogiPlayer]

hey can you go staright to chap 26 on easy then go to options and change the difficulty to hard can you get the trophy for hard?plz respond i must know!

[ihatemadrid]

No, of course. That would be stupid.

[B3YONDplayers]

no.

[RunescapeFtwful]

@MabinogiPlayer Fuck no.

[MarthMainer]

that was very creative. you are very good at the game.

[HotBoyLawson]

thank you!!

[Hubster777]

thank you....Thank you

[alejitoblanco]

I just passed this level on curshing thanks to this tutorial !! Now I can buy Genghis Khan!

Thanks a lot!

[sowutifmahsnsux]

damn im glad theres such an exploit on this part b/c i was sick and tired of run gunning around for dear life at tree sap while trying to dodge his four grenades thrown at once. freaking lazarovich and his hacks

[lilkoolkid315]

its so cute how nate talks to elena they are such a goooood game couple its what i like about this game lol violence great story line characters and themmmmm lolol... naughty dog needs better boss battles this seems same as last uncharted no thrill on boss battles..... it needs more flare in it lol

[JPLCR]

@lilkoolkid315 You're kidding right. I was glad when Elena was injured. She's so boring. Chloe is better. I hope she comes back in Uncharted 3.

[hasan2558]

Hah I did it thanks man it was on Crushing and he Crushed me bout 5 times but then it worked cuz of that thanks now I got my Platinum :D

[Mettes129]

i did different way it really works you have to move everywhere where the sap things are than wait till shows up than shot it keep doing that that works. My old way to move circles till it's done

[AvatarBowler]

For this strategy to work you also need the Infinite Ammo tweak.

[plasmasupernastyblas]

@AvatarBowler i didint use it...it was easy i had 11 shots left

[AvatarBowler]

Here's another cheap way to kill Lazarevic:

1. Access the RPG-7 in the Bonuses menu under the Weapons option (buy it first if you haven't).

2. Run around and shoot at him. It usually takes 4 (3, if you're lucky) shots to see him end up saying something like "You think you can stop me?" or "You will not stand in the way of destiny!"

BIT OF ADVICE: Try using this strategy on difficulties you've beaten, 'cause if you try this on difficulties you started on, the game won't let you.

[00dude3]

only problem is you cant use the weapons in store until you beat the game of whatever difficulty your on

[MrBr1zzo]

not many. i tried to beat it the same way i did on hard, but after dying a bunch of times i figured this was actually a better strategy, even though it's ridiculously cheap.

[sh4d0w2k9]

@MrBr1zzo I'd just like to say thankyou for showing us a good strategy I had a really hard time beating Lazarovic or Hard and Crushing, now thanks to your guide I beat Lazarovic and I completely agree with you on the fact that the final battle in uncharted 2 sucks, its pure bullshit. I managed to beat hardmode myself, but I used your video guidance in Crushing Mode as it was harder than I thought lol, anyways I have just beaten the game right now & got a Platinum because of your help thankyou.

[thisnamewaseasy]

wow, one boss battle was almost a deal breaker? maybe if you hadn't used THE cheapest strategy, it would have been fun. It was for me.

[MrBr1zzo]

It's almost as if they got to the end of this game and said "oh shit we need a boss fight." so they made this guy who takes tons of hits and is the only person in the game capable of throwing multiple grenades.

I think it's a bad boss fight because of how unnecessary it is and detracts from the experience as a whole. Most games that don't have "Metal Gear" in the title have bad boss fights at the end of them.

[sumudup15]

@MrBr1zzo i dunno if the boss fight sucks that much really...i mean they explained the reason why he could take that many hits really well and it did all lead up to it, the only problem i think is that due to the difficulty to kill him, the lack of any checkpoints within the boss fight (even though usually no boss fights have checkpoints), people get extremly frustrated with having to do similar things over and over again only to get killed

[nickizgr8]

@MrBr1zzo if i tried to do this i would get bored but the thing is i actally liked this boss when i finnally killed him i was like w00000t the only thing that anooyed me is when he randomly speeds up sprints fast like he teleporting and he can walk through that fire in the middle which is unfair i really didn't find any problems with his 4 granades i think it killed me once but that was becasue i made a stupid mistake

[xboxboy312]

@MrBr1zzo well i loved this boss battle when i played the game

[RunescapeFtwful]

@MrBr1zzo Eh Your forgeting god fof war series, its got amazing boss fights!

[lemans24fan]

I agree, I love MGS and this does feel real cheap. One of the best single player games ever, and then this at the end.

[88steez]

@MrBr1zzo

Complete and total ass-backwards view. But it is your right to have that view. "Waah he can throw four grenades at once. Waaah!" Um--he's a freakin' final boss. Want him to tickle you instead? Also everything that happened up until this moment in the game, makes this boss fight perfectly valid. But in the end, based on how I've watched you play the game, I'm not surprised you'd complain. [Also, look up what, "Jump-the-Shark" means. I don't think you understand the definition.

[Clumzo7278]

The boss fight from UC1 was better and WAY more chalenging

[gsingh96]

actually not really i thought it wasnet

[plasmasupernastyblas]

@Clumzo7278 oh i remeber that it was a lot better.

[rabbai007]

The easiest way to beat this guy is to run around and lure him close to one of the blue sap around any tree and shoot it. You need to do this 5 or 6 times and he will go down .... easy and fun to try

[BIGDAVE1666]

thx man!this is great!!!

[MultiDinoboy]

There's a secret cheat which lets you get the trophies with infinite ammo and one hit kills. Do this...

1. Start the game on crushing and get the first gun

2. Change the difficulty to one you've unlocked the cheats on and enable them

3. Save and quit

4. Change the difficulty back to crushing in the main menu.

5. Continue the game and enjoy!!!

You may have to do it again for some chapters so make sure you check the tweak menu

[arbiterg]

they patched that cheat u cant do it anymore!

[themartijn678]

are you sure?

[densejestepkloden1]

a really good video that show how you can defeat the final boos, i do that on hard and crushing, and it helped a lot. So thanks, know i got the platinum because of you ;)

[nothing4224]

This is probably one of the worst boss fights ever created. Which is surprising since U2 is one of the best games of all time.

[SangamonTaylor1]

MrBr1zzo,

Your tutorials are exemplary! Your time is much appreciated, thank you for the work you put into them.  Now if youtube would just find some more bandwidth so I don't have to wait while they load....

Keep up the good work,

-Sangamon

[whitesheetofpaper]

I believe that this boss fight is great. It was fun, but it's just hard. It was a great end to lazarevic, and it goes with the story

[arothmanmusic]

The other 'cheap way' to beat him (just did this on Hard last night) is to hit him with a sap blast and then run up to him and start punching. He won't fire the shotgun or throw grenades if you stay close to him, and his 'lift and choke' routine doesn't hurt Drake much at all. You can let him chuck you across the map and then just lead him to more sap. It's slow going, but more challenging and entertaining than just hanging around on the column like this.

[dkblade27]

ill take chole over elena but then maybe...

[DarkFoxRox]

This is probably the best PS3 game so far in my opinion , i just hated one thing about it , the son of a bitch zoran is far too powerfull , thats just bullshit, however , i tried to take him down the normal way , and it took me hours.... you videos helped me man , rated 5 starts , thank you.

[DarkFoxRox]

your*

btw , i have the platinum :D

[ShadowNinja2020]

You helped me get Platnium ^.^

[legostarfox2000]

That's how I beat it to but after I bet it sent me back to the beginning.

[Ohdaesu333]

I'm not sure what you are talking about when you say this boss wrecks the whole game. Because it doesn't. I beat him on crushing like you are suppose to. Sure it took a few tries but is that not the point of a final boss? To be a little challenging?

[MrBr1zzo]

I believe I said it "almost" ruins it. You go through this amazing game and come to a boss fight against a guy who can only be hurt one way, does a ton of damage to the player, and is capable of throwing 4 grenades at the same time. It's cheap and unnecessary.

A final boss doesn't need to be challenging to justify the experience. Games need only have a satisfying conclusion. I would have been just fine with this guy being taken down like a heavy armored enemy and the rest being the same.

[Ohdaesu333]

But were is the satisfaction in fighting just another "heavy armored" bad guy, In my opinion that would be a let down and dull the whole experience thus not justifying it. A couple of examples of this are, Bioshock and Boarderlands. I know they are both first person. The point is, you work very hard and invest hours of play time, only to kill the final boss in a min. or two with a few side steps and a few clips of ammo. Were is the fun in that. This boss was far more satisfying then uncharted 1.

[MrBr1zzo]

I see your point, but I disagree. Bosses are never indicative of a game's quality. Bioshock is a better example than Borderlands. The final boss is just a waste of time and soils the experience, but making him harder to kill would not have made it a better fight.

I love the way the game ends with the escape sequence, and the boss fight can't ruin it, but it can effect it. In my opinion is was a mistake to throw in such a boss fight.

[Merkalation]

you can hurt him more than one way. he gets hurt when you shoot him, throw grenades, you can try to hit him before he shot gun rapes you. but yeah when i played it on medium i killed him with a grenade. and killing him on hard i killed him with a desert shot (after softening him up with the sap)

[thisnamewaseasy]

@MrBr1zzo it's not necessarily cheap. frankly, I beat him without dying once, and yes, on crushing. all his attacks are easy to avoid, but if he does hit you it does a lot of damage. I agree, it wasn't the best boss fight of all time, but it doesn't suck.

[chapmanbg]

i did it in 3 minutes :p

[chapmanbg]

thanks dude

[marcus648]

Thanks! The final boss battle is a joke! Just helped get me the Platinum Trophy!

[45dean45]

boring!!!

[doraldy1]

course man

[RatedRPaul]

This strategy still works with the patch?

[TheIntiruna]

Platinum the normal way.

[FilipPS3]

fuck you naughty dog ? fuck u Mr.B for cheating and not completing the battle like a real gamer!

[TheEvilguy123]

i tried this way to beat him but it didn't work i just did it the real way =)

[TheEvilguy123]

LOL!!

[DogtownRaptorVideos]

this has been patched brizzo bro, but u can jump up and down wen he shoots, u no ledge hang when he up on the top and jump up when hes down if he shoots when he is down run to the other side of the pool and repeat takes like twice as long now but still works just move fast and when he is down on the ground preferably too, :/, if i can borrow a capture card from my mate and i will be able to upload a response for those who find it too tough

....sorry bros.....

[DogtownRaptorVideos]

also the patch can be removed the whole thing that is, then save after the chloe cutscene, turn the console off, turn it on again and then reinstall patch should skip back to the running section at the end despite there only being a checkpoint for death but that will work too, well it did for me and jamie sooo :/....i am still trying to find the perfect approach so no glitches or tricks like this but its just so aggravating

[GoCompareDotCom]

This boss battle is rediculously hard!!! even when i try using this glitch he still kills me. Is anyone else finding this as hard as i am????

[koryutt]

i got the platinum trophy in 26 hours and if u guys want to know how to get the survivor trophy in 10 minuted go on gameinformer and ahmedmomo giltch for survivors trophy

[koryutt]

What happens if you dont shoot at 7:55?

[koryutt]

I beat it twice on crushing without cheating

[5Danimal5]

easy boss battle, cheap strategy is not needed

[moptedctu]

It's not a cheap way , matey . It's just a crap boss battle , in a perfect game. Besides , the job's done . Who cares how!!!!!!

[Zuko586]

?

I didn´t understand some comments...

if u do the hole game on crushing and use this metod to take lazarevich down (on crushing) you won´t ge the trophy?

well but looks like tey have fixed it and now we´re back to the hard way...

[stanleyboy09]

They have fixed it now and this glitch no longer works :(

[MrBr1zzo]

uh oh. if i can get confirmation of this i'll do it over again

[KEBABavSVIN]

It still works, I got my platinum trophy 10 minutes ago. Thanks for the walkthrough, brilliant work.

[xFoRc3XV]

what glitch are they talking about

[qintoobli]

you probably worked it out or done it properly but what i did was remove the patch - works a treat (and i was treated with a platinum!)

oh well - might be useful for others

oh and cheers MrBr1zzo! - it helped me loads!

[jimrome21]

thanks man. i just didnt get the crushing trophy. crap

[Diendlen]

Brilliant!! Got it done my first go with this strategy.

I am pissed off I wasn't awarded the crushing trophy, must have fixed that glitch. The first game I just completed on hard then played the last chapter on crushing for crushing trophy. So it appears I'll have to play the whole game (bar the last chapter) again!! F*** it! Oh well.

[Bawheidbob]

excellent thanks alot with this strategy a bit lame but so is the boss.

[Shikaroxen]

I tried this strategy.. but it takes too darn long and I ended up dead thx to this strategy just after 2-3 hits on him.. So I took him the normal way and it got the job done alot faster. Hard as f**k but I had a good run. Crushing done on 1st and 2nd game!

[Holycowpat]

thanks :) did it first time :D

[zpek87]

tnx man!

[jinzo94]

i killed lazarevich on hard with the normal strategy, but no way i can do it in crushing so thanks a lot for the tip :D

[zpek87]

+1

tnx

[thuggemini]

damn i wish i knew this method i did it the hard way took me forever but got it done.

[AceiSkate]

Hell, I just did it the normal way. I didn't have any trouble either. :o

[rodrigo1362]

BRIZZO FTW!!!

[DogtownRaptorVideos]

cheers for the shout out bro, this sux i must admit, i wish i could end it properly but meh, its easy as shit but yh.....laterz bro

[Anieckieee]

GRATZZZZZZZZ ON THE ENDING:D

[MrBr1zzo]

thanks. i wish it didnt have to end this way, but its the easiest.

[Thelazyone55]

Great ending dude! Another way that i did it is just keep running onto the big log, when he walks to the middle shoot the sap then jump off, then climp back up, can do it over and over

[RobinGaming]

Lol I'm sorry I'm so much responding on my little sisters acc:P She is auto logged on many times when I think my account is logged on:P

GRATZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ON THE ENDING :D
