Ratchet and Clank Speedrun, Pt. 1

Ratchet and Clank Speedrun
On PS2 DVD recorded
By RJWaters2

Segment 1: Veldin, Novalis (Aridia and Metropolis infobots)

Veldin: First world seems terribly slow, that's because it is. Much bolt farming had to be done here to meet the price of Quark's bouncer. Even more farming was done in my first run (the finished and published one here is the third) because I thought I'd need the Blaster to fight the boss on Umbris, perish the thought. I know now the bomb glove is faster anyway. Anyway.

I should've gone into Ratchet's house, ~1000 bolts extra would've made this much less painful. For those who don't know, there are 3 different types of monetary bolts. The regular off-pink and dull silver ones (from normal crates); the slightly more expensive dark silver and off-copper bolts (from most non-one-hit-kill-enemies); and the highly worthwhile copper-bronzish bolts (from the robo-parrot dispensers on Gemlik Base, among others). Veldin has only the first type.

I bunnyhop because it's faster and seems more techniqued than walking.

Novalis: Keeping Ratchet dry on the way to the plumber is a nice timesaver. After jumping the cliff, I hyperstrike because I pressed (circle) to equip bomb glove while bunnyhopping, so I pressed (square) to, I don't know, I was miles away, not even thinking about the run.

The river skip was a reason why the second run was scrapped (didn't do it then) I found it myself, then saw Tenfold had posted it in the R&C thread. Credit goes to him. I abuse the elevator physics to get some extra speed, only twice or so in the entire run.
