FYI: This is a Tool-Assisted Speedrun of Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal's New Game + No Quit Exploit category, the real-time run leaderboard and ruleset for which can be found here: www.speedrun.com/rac3#NG_No_QE
This means that tools (i.e. savestates, frame advancing, input recording) were used to record a playthrough of a game with the aim of creating a theoretically perfect speedrun. This run is also segmented (as the PCSX2 emulator desyncs on loads), meaning that levels are split up by loads and TASed individually. However, this run is still a contiguous series of segments that are recorded like an actual run: each segment directly succeeds the previous one, and ammo counts, weapon selections etc. are preserved between segments.
There are some visual and audio bugs that are a result of the emulator, but aside from those, all things seen in this video (as far as the community is aware) can be done on a real console. Portions of the game audio (Blackwater City) were edited in order to not be ear destroying, and you can check the outtakes in the description for an explanation. Long loads have also been removed and replaced with normal loads, as per the community's ruleset for Ratchet & Clank 3. It's also worth noting that the timer in the video is counting in frames at the lowest level, not milliseconds.
swag
Damn that was awesome
Very nice
@Alejandro Marín Giménez By skipping into VR training on the first visit to Starship Phoenix, we can get the coordinates to Daxx, which skips needing to go to Aquatos or Tyrrhanosis. Since we skip the Warp Pad stuff on Qwark's Hideout, we also don't need to do Aridia.
What's a normal load and how do you do that on real PS2 hardware?
Ratchet saves the universe again while high on ketamine, again
@@countessofcompost1574 go search mr krabs overdosed on ketamine and dies speed runs. You'll get the joke after
This isn't Nano, Skidd.
10:34 CLENK
Easily the best Korean voice line

mdrrrrr
keu-lank i think
One of the absolute best 3D game Tool-Assisted runs. Amazing job nano.
When your galaxy is in danger but you want to keep playing Chess with your tin can friend
Underrated comment
Never thought speedrunning Ratchet and Clank was a thing. Played this game so much as a child and this run is so fascinating to me. Been looking through R&C speedruns for the last hour now because this video popped up in my recommended. Mad props, this is insane!
This is very impressive but you do know it's a tas right
Check out Xem92
the 1st 3 ratchet games are some of the best games to speedrun imo. the sheer amount of movement tech you have and the skill required to pull them off is just insane. knowlege of the game (like knowing where everything is, knowing where and when all the enemies spawn, etc) is one thing, but this game takes things to a whole new level with the movement tech
This is one of the most comedic TAS's out there, and incredibly impressive to watch aswell. Watching you snipe enemies before they even exist on blackwater city is so brutal.
This is just incredible, 4 years in the making and its finally here. this is a monumental effort and I can only say congratulations to the RAC TAS community, and the ratchet speedrunning community in general for years upon years of playing an early 2000s furry game at incredible hihg speed.
+1
4 years ??!!
Tough to express how happy I felt watching this. Thank you for making it a reality, and congratulations on finally getting it done. gg
When your mom tells you, you only have 20 minutes left to play the game.
My mind is absolutely blown. As a young girl this game meant so much to me and the speedrunning community was small. I appreciate your contribution so so so so much and I thank you for such an entertaining and fulfilling video. This series is so close to my heart and to see it progress in the speedrunning community means the world to me. The amount of effort and hard work it takes to make a TAS speedrun is severely underappreciated by the masses. This game is tattooed on my little leg forever and I'm glad there's people like you keeping Ratchet and Clank in Legacy 🥰
this may have no parallel universes, but i’m convinced Rachet can access a different state of reality with how he’s phasing through everything
My mouth was just hanging open the whole time lmao, thanks for taking the time to make this TAS for one of my favorite games of all time :D
In which Dr. Nefarious has seemingly already won by turning the famous Lombax into a robot - yet did not account for his wrath of being interrupted in a chess game
I think you beat helgas record
Underrated comment😂😂
Right! 😂
not yet 😬
But only just!
Even better than I could have expected. Amazing job, Nano.
Awesome TAS Nano. I highly appreciate the fact that you thanked me at the end of the run. It's really awesome knowing that I had some contribution towards this TAS.
I never knew someone like you existed, that could do such a god-like run like this!
This is actually amazing to see and the speed is unbelievable, Good Job Nano!
This run is TAS.
It's a machine that is playing
To put it simply, yes, a machine is playing, but I told the machine what to do for every single frame of the run.
@@Leora_Moon that takes a lot of patience and effort, I really thought you were behind this all haha
i dont usually watch vids exceeding 10 minutes but this run amazed me since r&c3 is my childhood game
thanks for being in my recommended
Glad you enjoyed it!
I am absolutely blown away in every respect. Not only is it fast as fricc but it ever little detail is so smooth and done with so much effort and attention to detail. I mean those Swag Strats on Marcadia were so unnecessary but so incredible. I'm actually reeling rn
Dr Nefarious didnt knew he was fighting a 4th dimensional elder god with power to control space and time
4:20 lmao the fuckin frame perfect quick scopes holy shit this is so awesome
This is phenomenal, absolutely phenomenal. I can only imagine how tedious this would’ve been to plan out, bit by bit. Well done!! 💚
This is probably the best thing I have seen all year. I can't even think how much time and dedication and motivation this project took, but i'm glad you were able to finnish it!
It is just so satisfying to see how easily you make Ratchet move!
I think we finally have an answer to the question of if science has gone too far, because goddamn, this is indistinguishable from devil magic and my mind is blown.
7:25 Wait, that's illegal.
Everything in this video is
@@underthebleachers7057 I was thinking the same
10:40 and 14:37 the most illegal things in the video
10:40 I noticed that the ammo pick-up sound gets down-pitched as Ratchet boosts past it. I honestly never even knew R&C3 had a built-in Doppler effect system. The devs behind Ratchet & Clank really put their blood, sweat and tears into these games.
The sickest speedrun to date, in my opinion! You worked long and hard for this final product, and I've been here since I remember a RAC3 TAS was being announced; I've watched all of your TAS clips, and it was so worth the hype!! Keep up the good work, cadet!👍🏻Captain TAS is more like it.😉👉
This was probably the best TAS I've seen of any game. Congratulations man !!! So much work must have gone into this and it shows.
I liked the loading screens. They were slow enough for my brain
Massive kudos for undertaking such a monumental project! And thank you for the special thanks! It means a lot to me.
Great work Nano! I don't know you but i appreciate what you have done and accomplished with this video! I'm sure the RaC community is happy for this video aswell! Best of luck with your further endeavours!
Holy fucking shit this is insane, awesome work my guy i hope there is more to come
This is how I thought my older brother played the game
IT'S FINALLY HERE!!!!
Great job man, seriously incredible.
-insou
Couldn't have done it without you
Thanks Xem92 for bestowing glory before our eyes. Nice work Nano!
Truly a work of art. Hoping for more Rac TAS's in the future.
Everybody's gangsta 'till the lombax starts speakin Korean
Absolutely awesome TAS, well done
After watching the first 15 seconds and having played rac since it's inception, I can say I am still a total noob at this game.
Really impressed by this, amazing job, congrats!
Now I need to understand it, there's a lot to see from someone not entirely familiar with rac3 speedrun
God job again
Couldn’t get the fiddy what a fraud. But in all seriousness this is one of the most satisfying videos I have ever seen you can’t put a price on the value of this video, i am so glad I get to watch this video
Girl: ratchet come over
Ratchet: I can't I need to save the universe and have an epic showdown with an evil robot doctor
Girl: my parents aren't home
Ratchet: be there in 20 mins
Finally finished watching this as I had stuff to do and this is awesome good work
Thank you so much for making this Nano!
Amazing job bruv! Must have been quite an experience crafting this.
Amazing!! Thank you, apparently Ratchet and Clank was a difficult game to TAS. Glad we got one! :D
*"Honey, get out of the bathroom, we need to go"*
*"I'm not done yet, give me 20 minutes"*
*"Sure, i can do it"*
give me 4 years*
Wooooaaaahhh, this gameplay was mind-blowing and mesmerizing... My only hope is that Ricky(ThaRixer) and Xem(Xem92) see this beauty.
Called 20:23, glad to see i wasn't that far off.
Insane work Nano, really. ggs
Everytime Ratchet has to fight is a terrifying sight to behold. Although I think my favorite bit is that moment on Daxx where Ratchet lines himself up for the jump on the elevator, it's just such a normal-looking moment in the middle of all the craziness. Quite a run...
subbed for a commentary, looking forward to it!!
this is incredible work. congratulations!
Insane TAS. I've seen this on Xem's channel. Really good job on this one Nano.
one of the coolest things I've ever watched. insane work
10:45 lmfao
This is insane i havent played the game for a while and i just realized you did the game in 20mins
I played this game back before PS3 existed
I did not comprehend what I saw
7:35 lmao i didnt even know you could skip the turret but thats hilarious
That feeling when you quickscope the final boss
this game looks cool, great job on this man
What is this godly power quickscoping whole switching to the shock blaster lolol
This is insane. Great job man!
Ah yes, TAS: The half-mad R&D sector of the speedrunning community.
Fun Fact: This is what Dr. Nefarious sees when he glitches out
This video is My childhood torn apart literally
Only thing I can say is: Massive respect and Congratulations!
Wow dude this looks amazing!
The daxx sequence is actually incredible
Dang it is fast :3
Nice Daxx btw
You a whole videogame Legend.
3 seconds in the video and i am already going crazy
*Lands*
*Refuses to elaborate*
*Leaves*
HOWW????? Straight up amazing man!!
爽快感抜群。
また見に来てしまった。
This was like stupendously ridiculous,must have taken so long to set this all up
I love this so much!
Really outstanding job
*Ratchet saves the solana galaxy in less than 21 minutes*
That dax fight was epic
words cannot describe how amazing this is. i can only imagine how much monotonous and tedious work went into this
*w h a t i n t h e g o d d a m n*
The amount of money tells me you've played this game for quite some time lol
INCREDIBLE"..............................
I can't wait for the 100% TAS, bro'!👍🏻
this is pog
cool stuff.
最近、この記録がrtaに超えられたと知って驚いた。人類はとうとう20分の壁を突破しようとしている
that marcadia swag! Pog
How did he beat the game in 20 min? It's ONE OF NATURE'S MYSTERIES!
What was the point of Ratchet jumping back onto the ship at 7:40?
There's no purpose to it, mission 3 is a 2 minute autoscroller so I figured I'd do something interesting while I wait.
@@Leora_Moon Thanks for replying. It certainly made it extremely interesting to watch!
This is amazing
We need going commando TAS
Absolutely stunning, cant wait for the comentary.
At 9:56 (in the video) Ratchet bumps against the second bolt instead of wrenching it directly, is that optimal?
It doesn't lose any time. As long as you're within a certain radius of the bolt crank, and it's active, pressing square will pretty much take precedence over most actions, including bonking.
@@Leora_Moon I see, thanks for answering
10:35 great cutscene
I think the bigger question here is who is this TAS guy why is he so good at so many games??
That Zeldrin was pretty wild
That was insane. Even knowing some of the tricks of speedruns for R&C3 I'm still completely ??? at most of what happened here. It's very obvious to me from someone who sunk a ton of time into this game how much optimization must've gone into the weapon usage. I'm guessing the reason you don't use the fully upgraded RYNOIII is because of the delay on the flash kill.
how to set minus seconds on speedrun timer(those minus seconds on 0:00 of the video)
I use DaVinci Resolve; I used the Text+ tool, set it to display timecode, and then expanded it backwards from the point where it was at 00:00.000. You can probably do something similar in most video editing applications.
Can someone explain why he did all that from 7:40?
just for fun
When you need to wait around in a TAS usually the people making it will do something stupid or funny to kill time
