Crash Bandicoot - N. Sane Trilogy - Platinum Time Trial #27: Stormy Ascent -
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 фев 2025
- Here's the thing. Just getting the platinum really isn't that hard once you know the level. The requirement is 3:10, which leaves a lot of room for mistakes and waiting for platforms and stuff. However, I wasn't just gonna upload a video where I half-ass my way through the level just to get the platinum and clock a 3:09. I wanted a somewhat respectable time, so I had to at least get under three minutes.
The main problem I faced was the stairs at 2:25. I kept finding myself stuck at the top step for some reason, so after failing too many good runs at that point, I figured out that the only way I could safely get past it was to simply tap the directional button on that jump. The following platforms are also a pain in the ass, and it was nearly pointless for me to approach them without a mask.
I'd say this was a pretty good run, even though it's nowhere near world record material. I wasted a lot of time at 2:42 and onwards, but I failed several runs there too and by now I just wanted to finish. I was actually surprised I got as low as 2:52, as I was expecting more like 2:55.
Btw, my left thumb literally hurts after all the attempts on this, so I need a little break to recover before I get started on the rest of the time trials. I don't remember the last time that happened.
GarlandTheGreat that's alright you've earned it ,beside you already got our respect for being the best Crash Bandicoot gamer
much respect dude!
GarlandTheGreat You even beat DarkspineSonic's record for this trial!
You know what? Rest. I actually know someone who played too much Kid Icarus Uprising and hurt their wrist.
They also worked as a games tester, and was testing a Hitman game. All that strain has to chronic pain in his wrist. If he had given it a break, he would have been fine.
Alas...
The fact that it hurts you and it took even you over 100 tries even though you played the old Stormy Ascent already proves this is in fact, the hardest crash level
I don’t care if nobody’s watching this video anymore. I just wanna say thanks for making this series, it’s been a huge help in my playthtrough, and I finally managed to get my final platinum in Crash 1 in stormy Ascent.
I'm still watching this lol
@@gerggggsame 😂
Just got added to Game Pass, so there will be a new influx of people
Yup thats me, after 3 weeks I got all platinum relics, this is my last one@@Soloman_Gumball
Why are we still here...Just to suffer.
Everynight i can feel my leg and my arm even my fingers.
The lifes i've lost.
The Max Channel Kaz, I'm already a Bandicoot.
I think I’ll just admit myself to the mental hospital right now
Playing this level made me cry inside and outside...the hardest level i have EVER played on any game i have played in my 25 years of playing games...just omg...ahhhh
I still consider this time trial to be the toughest ever. Even tougher than all the crash 4 ones
Try sekiro shadows die twice
Try Hollow Knight, the end game has a special "path" which is a real nightmare, (it also have a recap of all boss of the game in their hardest versions)
@@victorj1415i platined hollow knight but still i don't even wanna try to rush this level, it's crazy
@@chr1st1an30
Do you mean Path of Pain or Stormy Ascent ?
I finally got this, 3:08 but I don't care about world records. That last jump can go straight to hell for screwing me up like five times. All 27 platinum relics, done.
Took me 6 attempts, 4 of which ended at the 3 planks that 2 go into the wall and out at the same time
After literally 7 hours of this shit, I finally have the gem and the gold relic. The bloke who designed this must have been going through divorce procedures or something, because this level was just nasty.
I take my hat off to you sir for this run, but me and my thumping head ache are going to take the gold relic and gtfo of Crash 1.
Haha I was thinking same that who made that level didnt have a heart XD
I got 2:52:09 after a half hour 😅😳
Saaaaaaaaaaaame. My left hand was hurt but I finally got the platinum relic. It was horrible!
@@letsplayconan it took a half hour for me 😳
Honestly, for the N. Same trilogy, everyone’s better off with just the gold relics
That is ridiculous and amazing at the same time.. I played these games 20 years ago or more, mastered them and I still find them just as hard as they were..
Well done, that truly was spectacular!
and I thought I was broken after Sunset Vista, time trialling this is a new level of suffering
I have just beaten the platinum for sunset vista ( 3:14 btw 💀 and maybe over 300 attempts ) , and your comment doesn't give me hope for Stormy tbh
After spending 3 hours and getting knowhere and spending 40 minutes today i finally got a time of 2:55:89 and i gotta say, thank you so much, that was my last required platinum out of all three games. I got the trophy (which was the only one i didn't get back in 2017) and the relic, i finally have all the platinums after all these years.
Had it not been for this video, i wouldnt have ever gotten 3.04 minutes let alone beat the stage. Definitely the hardest trial of the trilogy
Finally done in 3:02 after two days! Thanks for your videos, very useful and without crazy WR-shortcuts that noone can perform. Crash 1 is done!
GarlandTheGreat? More like GarlandTheGod!
To be honest, I can't tell what's more difficult: This level or my Discrete Math class that I took last semester
I think it's a tie
Did you ever end up using mathematical induction outside that class?
@@photobro123 Nope. The class got so cryptic once we got to loops and Big O
This level is pure bullshit, mess up one thing, and the timing of every other moving object is ruined. Very nice run btw
I feel like if this was in the og then some of that timing messing up wouldn't have happened since the level wouldn't be rendered the whole time, kinda like how dashing in the polar bear segments in the 2 remake will mess up the level timing and not in the original
To be fair, that's why they didnt put it in the OG because of its difficulty
@@FrothyMilkshake19the OG version was easier than this version but not too much easier
This round game really bullshit. So hard for a kid game. I wonder how long it take and checkpoint is fukin so far away
Even the devs agree that’s why 2-3 got so much easier
Hands down to the best Crash Bandicoot player.
No lol, you might as well see the 2:23
Well, yeah, I realized someone had gotten that time just after I posted my previous comment haha, but if I'm not mistaken he did it with some kind of shortcut wasn't it? It didn't seem that way in the ones I saw
Last time I checked the record was 2:20. Feels kinda bad that someone was 30 seconds faster than me after all the struggle, but I'll improve this time some day.
I'm still trying for Platinum, I'm pretty sure I'm over 500 attempts by now
looooooooooool XD
I am still trying for a Sapphire Relic, not even thinking of a Gold, not even dreaming of a Platinum 😂
Breezing through the most difficult level and getting a platinum relic. That's Garland for you, Great.
And here I am pulling my hair out over this Time Trial. Hats off to you Garland
After 3 days of pain I got the gold relic.. This level is just something else..
I knew you would do much better than me, Garland! (mine was a close call at 3:09:09).
If you're still having trouble with the run then you should try this:
1. The hitbox of the spikes punish you if you are too near to the walls, stay as far from the walls as possible. Those places at 1:45 and 2:30 become less of a pain to get through, trust me.
2. There's a shortcut at 1:38, don't jump the platform Garland is standing and you'll get to the time boxes inmediately. Beware that you could lose Aku Aku with that, but step 1 is possible on this one as well.
3. Regarding Aku Aku, you shouldn't need the first one; you can save enough time to rush that section at 0:20 if you don't take it.
Hope this can help!
These are great tips and i actually started to respect those 2 first ones more when i read this even when i knew about them and it helped me to get my platinum for it!
But i can say otherwise for your last tip. I used to skip the first Aku and save the time for later but when i realized it totally changes the timeframe of the levels traps and moving parts etc in a positive effect, after 500+ deaths i changed my gameplay to always take that Aku and sure enough, i passed the level. Afterwards when i had done cleaning the sweat, blood and tears from my controller, i was in a happy place😂
This level is nuts.
@@Kuolonkorina Wow, I'm really glad I could be of help with your run even after quite a long time since I made this comment.
Everyone has their own strategy at the end of the day; all that is left to say is congrats on that platinum!! All you can do now is rejoice!
@@PikaLarm21 Thanks and cheers!
Whoever designed this level needs to be put into an abyss for eternity
nah they need to burn in that pit forever..
This was super neat, great upload and I liked your description too.
Took me 9 hours to complete any run, which got me the gold. I just felt relief.
Well done! All of the rest of the time trials (going for Platinums) from Crash 1 & 2 should be a walk in the park after this. Keep the videos coming! (though please do take a break and let you're thumbs recover)
Platinum for this level is very N.SANE.
By reading your attempts, I can see how brutal is the challenge. I guess the legacy you get from this level's Platinum relic is a conqueror's feeling... and thumb pain mostly lol
I got the gem first last night, took me about 20 lives, then finally got the gold relic which took proly 40 tries with a time of 3:50. Then with me being the way I am I had to get the platinum relic of 3:10. I've spent close to 8 hours trying to do it, jump after jump, death after death, getting close to the end with only one or two more jumps left but then dying. But finally after about LITERALLY 200 ATTEMPTS I got the platinum relic with a time of 3:08. My thumb really hurts from jumping so many times but damn does it feel good that I never have to do that ever again in my life.
Trying for platinum for this level made The Lab and Generator Room feel like a cake walk.
Omg thank you sooo much your video helped me finally pass this level now to do the time trial 😂😢
I did 3:11:04 which I thought was really far from platinum, but now that I'm seeing that the requirement is 3:10 it makes me rather disappointed in myself.
STUPID LEVEL! AFTER SO MANY TRIES IT BREAKS AND THEN THINGS ARE OUT OF SYNC MESSING ME UP AND RUINING MY CHANCE FOR THE PLATINUM
You are a god. I salute you sir. I've been trying to get platinum on this level for weeks..
Just got the gold relic myself. I'm in awe of your skills, man. Great run, one that I'm happy to say I'll never be able to or want to match lol
Took me 60 attempts, that final part with the birds is pure cancer, also the stairs before the fast moving platforms has a bug, I died too many times because I got stuck at the final stairs and I wasn't able to jump off it. That part is a broken mes, eventually I got a gold time relic.
the workrate you put into this channel is insane. thank you my man x
Very nice man you are indeed still one of the best Crash Bandicoot players out there!!!!!!!! :D
after two days i made it finally, my time 3:01 uff, thanks so much for the guide video.
If there's something we all can agree on, you gotta be as insane as Ripper Roo to get Platinum on Stormy Ascent.
The most rage inducing platinum I ever got, 2:59 and I will never touch this level again, thank god I got the gem first.
I doff my imaginary hat to you Garland, an impressive run. I'm yet to finish it flawlessly. The quick in/out platforms get me most of the time.
EDIT: Managed to do it in 3 mins 20 secs. So happy right now. Not even going to try for Platinum, just happy to get gold and the achievement "An Ancient Antiquity."
THAT'S INCREDIBLE!
Just got this. Took me 3 days. Not as bad as impossible boy which took me 3 weeks but that didn’t automatically make me good at this and it was tough as nails. Thought I was gonna take another 3 weeks playing a level for that whole time that I suffered.
2:58 The very last section of this level is complete bullshit. The game throws two jumping sections that have literally never appeared anywhere else in the game and you have no way of practicing unless you make it to the end of the level. Fuck that moving bird + moving platform and moving triple bird section
That last jump 👀😱
Holy Fuck. I got Platinum (3:00) after 6 hours of playing. Maybe ill try to beat my record if i lose my job.
My left thumb hurts after trying this for 4 hours. Last time this happened in 2019 i think.
I got all the platinum relics in the first game and never wanted to play another crash bandicoot game ever again but I’m planning on getting the platinum on the fourth game. Wish me luck. Also, I did get the platinum relic for stormy ascent
That jump at 1:59 has killed me I don’t know how many times, I just cannot do it
The jumping and the timing irritates the fuck out of me
Woah, good job. I'm excited to try this level!
Best crash bandicoot player ever
LEGEND!!
Hey who ever made this map, why did you wake up and choose violence that day
Finaly got the gold relic on this.. took me quite a bit of sanity, many hours, but in the end, what a glorious satisfaction when it’s finally done.. I did not aim platinum for this one lol
I’m a bit late but , as always, very nice run man, top notch gameplay from you 👌
I haven't even attempted the time trial for this level yet. I just got the Gem after dying about 30 times. Lol! I came into the level with 46 lives and by the time I beat it I was at 15 lives but totally worth it to be able to say I beat Stormy Ascent and got every box in the level.
Finally made it to the end of this level oh my lord...
This level is a hell, I did platinum, but I tried dozen of times for this, even the time for this is lenient, the level is really hard for finish
2024 anyone?
Extra points if you're an OG player 🤘🏼
This time trial is harder than university.
bullshit parts:
1:20 (at least for my cycle)
2:11
2:25
2:49
3:10
Fuck this level.
Finished this with 3:26 and the gold relic. Was pissed when the Ancient Antiquity trophy didn't pop up, but then let out a sigh of relief when it unlocked at the Menu screen....
For me it starts to get difficult at 1:15 and i die there everytime. Tbh i needed a few tries to get there but i will do the rest with a friend so we can laugh at our fails. It would be torture doing this alone alldaylong. Screw any records id be happy with the gold relic
Same! You jump onto and it’s like oh fuck you crash you die
@@EmmureMARIO64 yeah. I got Crash to jump on the moving platform just for him to fall to his doom and throw his shoes 😆 🤣 😂 lol
Almost 3 years have passed since when i did it. Now I've got 21 platinum trophy ma this still remain the most difficult trophy earned.
If you can get plat in Generator Room and The Lab you can get this
I have the most issues with 1:25 -1:40. It took me 6 hours to get the gold medal cause I kept dying, so I'm not sure if I will even attempt the platinum. I will, just enjoying Crash 2 at the moment lol
My hands got sweaty watching this.
🤝 That was impressive. Kudos!
lol I really cried blood cuz this shit. Literally i got nearly 99 lives and I kick em off because this level it's insanely troll.
After 30+ lives on this stage & seeing the platinum time my mind was like f&@k this. Good job.
Damn, it took me 4 hours to get gold on this. I should have taken a break after 2 hours, I finally got it when I took a rest and then tried again, on the sixth try I finally did it.
2:55 after 4 HOURS, but so satisfying
This level Platinum Relic give me a lot of nightmares,rage and 300 attempts!!!!
Its taking me literally three days and counting to actually get that piece of shit relic
Neon Socks i manage to get the gold relic and soon after told myself I need a rest from crash lmao the best possible advice I would give you is try to learn from each section of the level especially with the spikes the hardest part for me was getting on that last bird at the end of the level that bird is pure fucking cancer
For anyone who is struggling with this and aren't too proud to use exploits, look up the world records. There are some glitches you can use to skip large portions of the level. The current record is under 2 minutes
isn't this one of the best runs on the scoreboard?
pepe1 It must be... He even beat DsS (DarkspineSonic), a legendary speedrunner. DsS clocked it at 2:59. Garland did it in 2:52.
Are you talking about the scoreboard in-game, or is there a website of some sort?
i got 2:37 , i guess i'm better ? lol
Saaeed 5500 you're either the reincarnation of Jesus or a bloody liar.
Arthur Feitosa it's literally in my channel you can check it out
2 days passed and I'm still trying this one! The hardest part is the end
1:38 Jumping down to pit under that 2nd platform saves you 5 second. You end up here after jumping down there 1:43.
I hate this level with a passion
Same here, maybe one day we can tell the creator how many controllers has he destroyed 😭🤣
this level is such a pain in the ass, the only reason i cant get a platinum is that i try to rush through it even though i got the same time points as GarlandtheGreat in the video, my brain hurts, my thumb hurts, my soul is GONE
1:58 this stupid jump, every single time
Well done man!
Is this the hardest Crash level? No, I find levels like Cold Hard Crash and The High Road to be much harder, and most Crash 4 levels are way harder than this.
But, does this level have a torturous Platinum Relic?
*YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT*
Finally managed to get a platinum on this level with a 3:05:63 after two days!
Holy shit dude insane!!!!!
Respect man!
I have died to those birds at the end 8 times now.. I’m going insane.
I literally rage quit and removed game after 4 hours trying to get under 3 minutes
This was painful to watch in the way that I felt like I was playing and I could die at any moment lol
My period 3:17 is wrong, got a bug in the game, it can't jump to it, is there a light, patch file?
I had to stop playing this game and move on to crash 2 and crash 3 because the timing on the high road and slippery climb were so difficult :(
all the shinies beat you in this level he got a time of 2:42:66
Platinum this stage is where the real insanity begins unless you're lucky with the timing.
This platinum took me like 7 hours with some breaks between
You should get some action from TAWNA for doin this shit Lol, NICELY DONE MANG
its even sadder because canonically she left crash for pinstripe. pinstripe tried to prevent her rescue while crash saved her, what the hell
+Miles Away That excuse was done after Crash 1 and replaced by Coco, Universal's decision to make it 100% children's game with no relationships.
Fuck this level
It's the 1 and only level preventing me from 100%ing the entirety of the trilogys achievements
Nice job dude! My best is 3:25, got a video of it. But i did make it to the final triple bird jump in just under 3 minutes one time and fucked up what could've been my platinum run lol ill nab the plat relic soon enough tho!
Not sure what I've just watched tbh, that was crazy GG
Wow, just with your run im 7 seconds faster at the end of the first segment, but to find youre 18 seconds ahead of plat time? geez, this thing is generous. i came here to find out how to deal with the bit at 1:12 and the rotating platforms after the assistant. Every time i get there its either one cycle or another and i have no idea how to make it the good cycle consistently
I don't think he's even a human at all, considering he can pull this off.
They should've added checkpoints to this time trial. It's just too long and difficult lol.
The three birds at the end keep fucking me over.
nice run Garland!!!
6 AND A HALF HOURS !!! my hands are broken but i finally finished the level, although my body is broken my spirit held firm
