  • In this Sonic Adventure 2 Tips and Tricks video, I show you how to get the A ranks in all of Metal Harbor's Missions. Even if you cant make it to the top of the rocket at the end, you can still get the A rank here. If you find these tips useful be sure to let me know! I wanna do more, but I need to know which levels you guys wanna see.

    I actually didn't know that bouncing prevents the bonus from setting in. That's very handy to know.

    Man where was this video when I needed it ten hours and fifteen minutes ago
    I had no idea that spamming bounce kept the combo meter going- that'll be a lifesaver on the last few A-ranks I need.

    • @EpicDuskk
      @EpicDuskk  3 месяца назад +3

      Yeah that trick comes in handy alot! Its weird that it works, usually your combo ends when you touch the floor, but I guess a bounce doesn't count lol

    This video would have been really useful to my teenage self when I was working toward 100% completion. I remember forcing an by getting all the rings instead. I eventually got 100%, but it took me a few years of playing the game semi-regularly. The only outside help I had were knowing the exact requirements. I had to figure out everything else by myself.

    I'm glad that I've been able to find and watch this video. I've been trying to get an A rank for mission 1 in that stage about 2 days ago and I didn't know that you don't have to get all the way to the top of that rocket to help get enough points. Everyone else who has put out an online walkthrough about this stage mentions that that has to be done, and I frustratingly keep failing to make it up there in time! So next time I attempt to get an A rank in mission 1 and an A rank in any of the other missions in that stage that I might not have gotten yet, I'll rewatch this video to remind myself about what you said can be done to get there in time, and if I fail on managing that again I will be reminded of what other things can be done to achieve the A rank goal in that mission and the 4 other ones in that stage. Thanks for this amount of gaming advice.
    PS, now you have a new subscriber because I'm a big fan of this game and the whole Sonic franchise.

    Lol, yep, I never knew about that 1 hidden ring! That’s so rad! Also didn’t know about the right rail being worth more! What an awesome video! I always felt like sa2 was slightly inspired by Tony Hawk with the tricks and points. I always felt like spamming the bounce bracelet to chain stuff was essentially doing a manual in Tony hawk!

I could never reach the top rocket so never hit the a rank, now I know that I don’t have too!

    A cool video idea could be to try and get the highest combo with each character. I’ve sunk hundreds of hours in this game, yet it wasn’t until a YT video this year that I learned what the audio sounds like for Tails if you get a perfect combo lol.

    • @EpicDuskk
      @EpicDuskk  3 месяца назад

      Ohhh I actually like that idea alot! I'll add that to my backlog of video ideas to make for sure. The bonus points for a combo maxes out at 2000, but we can see how many enemies beyond that and just do the math to see how many points it would be worth.

    • @onorebakasama
      @onorebakasama 3 месяца назад

      It would be easiest to do that at the end of Eternal Engine (multiple Perfect bonuses), or on a specific pulley in Hidden Base where you're surrounded by Kikis and a double-column of dynamite off-screen (hold the pulley and spin around, fire before jumping; easy Extreme bonus).

    I usually just get all the rings for an A rank in this stage since it's a pretty short and easy one.

    • @EpicDuskk
      @EpicDuskk  3 месяца назад +1

      I suppose I should have mentioned thats an option. Although if you're getting all the rings, you're taking the high rocket path, its probably likely you'd get the A rank regardless at that point. Also getting all the rings isn't an option in every level, some of them have rings you cant access.
