Its also very buggy, and different people have different bugs. I tried so many times finding boxes i “missed” and finally looked it up and found out there were just bugs you have to do different things to avoid to trigger them and I was heated lol.
Yeah this level really had me hot to the point I want to print out that boat drivers pic and take it to the shooting range and wear his inbred squirrel looking as$ out😂
This level isn’t tough but the crate placement at the boat section and water section at the end is just terrible game design. I don’t think they understand the people who are 100% it have to keep restarting the level over and over again after you die once or miss a box that you aren’t allowed to go back and grab. Not to mention the long loading screen each time you restart.
Mokey Mokey Guy I don’t think it would feel that bad, if it didn’t take several minutes to get back to where you were. Especially because of the long load times of this level in particular. When it comes to the typical “rage game”, and I’m not really gonna call ANY Crash game a rage game, but when it comes to the typical rage inducing game, usually there’s a way to get right back to where you started. The time trials at least have that. When I’m playing a level with about 100 crates in it, restarting is no problem, but anything past 300, is usually a long level, and one I would hate to do over again at that!
The jetski section of this BS level literally made me foam at the mouth to ultimately find out I missed 6 boxes in the fucking Dingodile section. Moments like this make me say fuck this game even though it’s actually pretty fun in other aspects aside from this garbage level and Bear repeating
God forbid someone has a disability that makes second perfect timing nearly impossible.... this game could really use a assist mode like Celeste ( Celeste is equally as difficult but I can slow down timing puzzles in particular and dark souls I can take my time and prepare) I 100 percent every crash game on the ps1 but doing a flawless no death run here not to mention having to redo it over again for inverted where it even harder to see everything as the box’s blend into the background. not to mention relics where they changed boxes to hazard and you need to have a flawless run. Is just stupid. I got literally everything up to this point... but this level might be the end of my 100 percent run..as I stopped having fun 60 deaths ago..but I’m also to stubborn to give up...
Man, I like the core game well enough, but I'm officially done trying to 100% the boxes. These devs do not know what a proper "secret" is supposed to be. You've gotta give SOME indication for observant players to think an area's worth investigating (the "dud" Nitro boxes in Crash 2 that were arranged suspiciously into a staircase is a perfect example of something being just "off" enough to poke around with). It shouldn't be, "Keep jumping to your death at every corner and hope you land on a secret." How did they get so much else right and that part so wrong?
I totally agree. And let alone the colored gems, that's just straigh up bs. Have you seen how to get the red gem? It's just nonsense and magic, noone in their right mind would do that in real game.
@@tjg121389 yeah, I learned about the hints after I posted the comment. But really, did anyone notice those hints for the gems before they looked it up or someone drew their attention to it?
@@imkingmailru I'm sure the more observant people did. I blew right by it, so I didnt notice it. My main complaint is the levels don't seem to tell you if there's a colored gem in it on the map. The warp rooms in 2 and 3 at least told you there was a colored gem in the level, 4 doesn't, you just need to be observant I guess. The red, blue, and green gems all have clues, but they are easy to miss.
I like this game & all but I don’t know why these developers have such a hard on for missable crate sections?? It’s like they thought “hey we have no fucking clue how to make this level difficult so let’s just make it frustrating instead”. Seriously one of the WORST levels in any game I’ve ever played.
Yep, this is odd because most of the game is top notch (levels are a bit too long, but it wouls not be half as much of a problem if it wew not for those "le ebin hidden boxes", seems lile what an amateur dev would do lile one of those mediocre Mario Maker levels.)
Frustrating level? It's a very frustrating game instead, for anyone that want to do the platinum trophy. Also levels are too long, too hard, you need to repeat them multiple times to collect everything (gems, perfect, inverted gems)... it's really ridiculus and i haven't say anything about the infinite times you die to retry for the perfect. Too bad game imo about gameplay...
Cause they’re fucking dicksuckers man, I’m convinced cause jesus christ the amount of times this has happened to me ruined alot of the experience of this game for me past beating it without 100%
Agreed, the boat section is straight cancer on this level. And if by some miracle you get past boat section on a deathless run, jet ski section can easily f*ck you over and completely ruin all your hard work. F*ck this level
This level is buggy too. There are two crates right at the start of the crash section that sometimes don’t respawn when you die, so you miss two crates at the end
And i got another bug. The final box count doesnt count 2-3 boxes in the end even if you actually get them all. You have to not kill the first creature carrying the nitro box at the beginning. Then when you get the first checkpoint your box total will automatically add a few boxes that didnt even exist or whatever. Its so weird. Was so hard getting perfect on this.
I love this channel. I am currently working towards completing 100% of the 4th Crash game...I literally always look for the “M91” in walk through videos because his comments are super helpful and he always shows the box count!!! The box count is so important, idk why more people don’t do that consistently!
FINALLY!!!!! I've been avoiding this level for so long! Took 53 deaths thou 😂😂 Thank you Maka for superior videos, you are so helpful! Even thou I grow up with the 3 first C.B and never had internet as a tool, but still nailed everyone, so this kinda hurt my pride 😂 But this game is freaking INSANE so yeah, bye bye pride 😆
Thank you again for the video. Your tip about going backwards down the river really helped. After close to hundred lives used I think I will forget the perfect relics lol. I know I will loose my mind before getting them. This level has even put me off the inverted crystals for this level.
Somehow I was always one box ahead of you for the entire thing, don't know what happened there, but thanks for the guide, no idea which one i kept missing.
Same! I’m here in the comments trying to find out why. At the first checkpoint I had 136 like him and then he broke every box in the next section but somehow at the second checkpoint and from there on out I have 1 more than him. I’m glad it’s not only me
This level has broken me. I'm not even trying to get the perfect relic, I'm just trying to get the boxes, and I can't get past the food cart bit with Crash. Those double jumps off the dynamite at the end, I never have time to do them and land back on the platform. I've been trying for over an hour just repeating that section over and over. It's ridiculously frustrating. Up to this point, I had no real issues getting all the boxes (following the guides because screw the hidden boxes). Even run it bayou I got through without too much trouble. But this level is just stupid.
I spent about 170 tries to do a double jump from the last dynamite and never got it, no matter how well I did the rest. Just knocked out and deleted this stupid game with this garbage level
I started this game late, and I just refuse to move onto the next level until I get the perfect relic. I just completed the first snow level so I’m at 19. Anyway, I found this stage to be more frustrating than Run it Bayou as well. Don’t get me wrong, the beginning of Run it Bayou is tricky at first... but the box placement in this level on the food boat part was really frustrating at the end. When Maka says Run it Bayou is the hardest level in the game in his opinion, does he mean up until that point, or literally the entire game? 🤔
Finally did it! What a relief!! Whew! This level was so weird, the boat section was extremely hard,harder than the whole of run it bayou but the rest of it was easier than run it bayou. Thank God the torment is over after a whole day of trying!
I bet you had the same issue that I had. I did this entire level perfect and needed 2 boxes and what had happened was for some reason when the level switches from dingo to crash it never spawned the 2 crates on the right on the dock were you start.
@@kris4steph Yep this happened to me as well but it only happens after I die before the next checkpoint, both boxes on the right just disappear. Well made video game yes.
@@Martyrr it definitely needs a patch of some sort doesn't it. 3 things with that level I've found wrong now. Sometimes crash doesn't stand up after going underneath the obstacles, disappearing boxes at Crashes starting point and also the flashback tape from run it bayou spawns in randomly
Finally got the perfect relic !!! 2 days of wash rinse and repeat grinding but I got it.....the very last section of the stage were your on the motor board thing. Go down backwards and hold down the boost button and steadily tap the d-pad left or right. There's been about 3 or 4 times these last 2 days were I've got through the barge roof bit perfect and then missed the 1st or 4th box going down the waterfall and had to restart all over again and then suck at the barge roof part again.
This level is unreasonably hard. I’ve been trying to get the perfect relic for DAYS now and it’s just above my capabilities at this point. I hate it with my whole heart… please send helppp!
Seriously one of the most frustrating levels I've played, I don't think the devs understand the difference between difficulty and blatantly unfair game design, the jetboard section at the end of the level is the epitome of annoying since you literally have to CHEESE IT just to get a tiny chance of hitting the boxes. No way in hell am I 100%ing this level
@@reikertmaikert9249 yep, that's pretty much the ONLY way to get them. But to be fair, I'm pretty sure that's what OP meant by "cheesing" it (to me, though, that's the ONLY way).
@@reikertmaikert9249 yeah, but what about the FUCKING polar bear level? There's no going backwards there. I for real died 50 times trying to collect all of them before saying "fuck it, I'm done"
got the n. sanely perfect relic second try. thought it was going to be as difficult as Run it Bayou, which took me 2 hours to get lol. I would recommend to anyone not good at the last boat part to NOT go backwards down the first slope, thats what got me my first time dying on this level. it confused me trying to go down backwards.
I took the long way to plat this game for sure, I first beat the game, then beat it on inverted, then went for all the gems on normal and inverted, and now I'm doing all the perfect relics and then the time trials. I think doing it this way has helped me become a lot more comfortable with the game though because I haven't had to restart any level so far more than 6-8 times for the perfect relic. Thank you so much for these guides as they help so much!!
@@matthieumartelct I quit this game 2 separate times. but eventually came back and just had the motivation to finally finish it. It's a massive pain in the ass
what part are you at? im at the snow covered area with the slippery ice and using the time freeze mask. This area isn't to bad, im dying about 20-25 times to finish a level. I think im at a boss fight now.
Quick tip guys, when you get the to first Crash section, guy in vid recommends not sliding, and for the first places when you have to be low, that's absolutely correct but when you get to the thin ones, sliding and double jumping is absolutely key to get some of the extremely high boxes. Great vid tho thanks
Levels like this is the reason my husband says watching me play this game is like me beating my head against a brick wall. That being said, great walkthrough!
Combated to Run It Bayou, this level was (relatively) easy. It only took me 2 hours to get the N. Sanely perfect relic instead of the 4 it took then. It’s still a pain in my ASS though. Screw Toys For Bob, they ruined the game. Thank you again for another great video though! You are helping me so much!
So I am very late to the party; but If there is anyone here watching and for some reason you keep missing 1-2 boxes like myself, it is because there's a bug in the very beginning of crashes run with the 2 boxes to the left. They don't get counted after the checkpoint If you break them too fast. I advise you go up the steps, break those crates FIRST and then come back and break those boxes. It should fix the bug 6:54
At 2:12, if you jump/hover around the nitro and land behind it, it will just explode by itself without having to do that throw jump. This level is annoying and the N Verted version is insane.
No Dillo Dallying is the most awesome name for a level I've ever heard. It sounds a lot like "No Dingodiling" plus in Italian a crocodile is a "coccodrillo" (rhymes with "armadillo") while an armadillo is, well, armadillo, so there are two Dillos in one level.
I can't imagine getting perfect on this one, took me 51 tries just for the box gem. If they patched it where you can get back upstream, then maybe, but that downhill is downright unfair.
Same here. I have no clue what I did wrong. I have the same amount of boxes that he does at the start of the water section and then the same when I finish, but when I hit the nitro destroying box it goes to 498.
It is miserable. I expected difficulty. I've played previous Crash games. But this just isn't fun. Replay extremely long level wit unfair crate placements 25-30 times. Finally 100% the level. Move onto next extremely long level with unfair crate placements. I'm finding no time to actually take a second and enjoy the game. I know 100% is optional. So it's also my fault for focusing so much on it. But man, Toys for Bob. Would it have killed you folks to inject even a minimum amount of fun into your game?
Raiden I played the original trilogy including Stormy Ascent and none of them had levels as infuriating to 100% complete as some of Crash 4’s. They never got downright trollish with the crate placements as much as Toys For Bob did. So quit acting like you’re the only one who doesn’t have an issue with the game’s wonky difficulty.
@@rayvenkman2087 Whenever there are discussions of game difficulty, there will inevitably be folks like Raiden who's default reply is "git gud". Their thought is that anyone who points out obvious flaws in level or game design is simply bad at games. To them, games are above criticism and any frustration is due to the players lack of skill. IMO, Crash 4 is a slog. The levels are too long and the crate and gem placement too cryptic. It isnt a matter of getting better at the game. I can persevere and 100% these levels. But that still won't make them good levels.
After 2 hours i finally got it! I honestly doubt i will ever platinum this game. It takes so much time and effor just to get the perfect run, and after that all lvls in nverted mode AND time trials? Its crazy!!
I gave up on platinum on this one, simply because of the time trials achievement (you have to get platinum on all levels). No way I'm even trying to do that. I spent 2 hours on 'a real grind' getting gold only to realize I need to cut it down by another 12 seconds to get the plat. Just.. nope.
So I got through the entire level with all boxes but one. 501/502. Where you take control of Crash again you have two boxes on the right and I only had one. 😭
Followed your guide, using the "play a bit of the vid, pause and play that part of the level, pause and play the vid, etc." method. ...Ended up with 492/502 boxes...
I hit the checkpoint before getting the other boxes right before it. If you die on the jetboard section, remember to go back & get them! Same thing happened to me.
Ugh, after going through hell in this level, I finally made it to the end relieved, only to learn that I was short 4 boxes. Now I have to do it all over again.
Thank you for the vid. This level made me so damn mad I died so many times at the boat part the boat glitched and wouldn't move anymore so I had to restart the level. Idk how I'm ever going to get the perfect relic and I'm pissed I have to do this all again on inverted mode.
Its so weird how different levels are harder or easier for different people. I struggled with Rush Hour because it was so damn long and has a hard part right at the very end. This level is easy with one medium difficulty sequence with crash riding the boat. But its so short its not a problem.
I finally got the insanely perfect for this after 3 hours... The shit was not easy at all The Dingodile portion is actually not even hard after 2-3 runs. Its the Crash portion thats the nightmare... That part with the moving platform ( trying to get all the boxes while not dying ), and then the final ridiculous jet ski portion. If you don't have at least 1 or 2 mask's during the jet ski part... You might as well forget it
Never felt so cheated with a game than this. It’s like the devs just threw it a ton of random boxes to make it hard without considering if it was actually still fun to play. With other crash games there was certainly a challenge but felt I’d earned it when I finally got a gem or Crystal. CB4 just ends up being endless repeats until you get some dumb luck
You know what.. in comparison to Run It Bayou it actually wasn't that bad. However, on the final jump on the boat section my jump would glitch and I would stay crouched even when In the open. E.g I would jump, but it's a jump crouch whilst the motion is still in crouch so it couldn't transform into the double jump.
There’s an easier way to get the river boat to move if you just jump and hover around the nitro wall and land on the dock, you can trigger the enemy to shoot the wall of nitro for you. And then your just good to go
I like this level, but collecting all those crates at the boat section is a PAIN and requires some good reflexes and precise inputs for sure. I'm doing a second playthrough of the game and just skipping the gem collecting on some of the harder levels :P What I've noticed is that the game is actually pretty slow paced because of all the hidden crates you have to be on the lookout all the time.
EOUASIDHAIDBA I DID IT! Didn't even lose a mask. Took about 90+ mins of practice, mostly the truck section that can bug out, or you can slide into or out of the screen, resulting in a slide that goes nowhere. Protip for the final section of the truck segment: duck, let the truck take you under the obstacle and then jump on to the dbl TNT, bounce (hold jump), then dbl jump for the box. If you slide under that obstacle before this you risk blowing up the TNT and that's an instant fail. So yeah, you've way more time than you'd think to do the final part.
On the Nintendo Switch version, I've got every box, yet my box count is always bugged. Only ever get 132 at the first checkpoint, sometimes give or take one. Always finish the level with 4 boxes or so missing, even though I didn't miss any. Only got every box once in N. Verted mode. Can't figure out how to fix the glitch. And it's not the 2 boxes at the start of the Crash section that people say are bugged. No matter what, I just can't get 136 at the first section. It's frustrating.
@@rocketeerlovely It was horrible, I still haven't gotten all inverted gems. Especially not on the last couple levels. Those 3 Death ones can jump off a cliff!
I missed 4 right at the start, before he gets on the boat, he grabs 4 boxes level with the platform with the vacuum. No idea those were there lol, kept missing 4 too.
dude same thing happen in this level. I had 466 boxes at the end just like you.. but when I triggered the nitro switch I had 501/502... i don't get it... it must a bug or something
I was 2 short at the end and what I figured out was that when the level switches from dingo to crash it never spawned the 2 boxes on the right side of the dock were you start off. If this happens and you die and restart at the dock they still dont spawn you have to literally restart the entire level.
It's a great game difficulty-wise. Were you drunk when playing this? In other words: this is Crash Bandicoot 4. The game is SUPPOSED TO BE HARD! Git gud, scrub.
@@JameyMcQueen I have played all 3 games in the original trilogy and 100% all 3 of them. And none of them had levels as difficult as this game. Sure they had some tough levels, but nowhere near this difficult. Some of the hidden gems are just in blatantly unfair places. So go sit down somewhere with that "get good" nonsense. Stop acting like anyone who has a hard time with some of the levels sucks at the game.
this level took a combined 120 lives from me on both this and the Nverted variants just trying to get all boxes, and i still failed the issue is you get back the lives you lose in this level as well so my counter stayed at 99 lives so i had to suffer longer
Glad to see everyone else hates this level too.
Its also very buggy, and different people have different bugs. I tried so many times finding boxes i “missed” and finally looked it up and found out there were just bugs you have to do different things to avoid to trigger them and I was heated lol.
It’s a darn shame because the music is super tight in this level.

This level was so weird, the boat section was extremely hard,harder than the whole of run it bayou but the rest of it was easier than run it bayou.
Thank God the torment is over after a whole day of trying!
I DO EVERYTHING RIGHT SO MANY TIMES AND I MISS 2 CRATES I’M CRYING
I bet you had the same issue that I had. I did this entire level perfect and needed 2 boxes and what had happened was for some reason when the level switches from dingo to crash it never spawned the 2 crates on the right on the dock were you start.
Krissy Stephenson I figured it out, it’s really stupid
@@kris4steph Yep this happened to me as well but it only happens after I die before the next checkpoint, both boxes on the right just disappear. Well made video game yes.
@@Martyrr it definitely needs a patch of some sort doesn't it. 3 things with that level I've found wrong now. Sometimes crash doesn't stand up after going underneath the obstacles, disappearing boxes at Crashes starting point and also the flashback tape from run it bayou spawns in randomly
I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. 2 CRATES MISSING. 😭
This level suuuuuuuucks, if Maka even dies on the walkthrough that’s when you know you’re in for some pain
Finally got the perfect relic !!! 2 days of wash rinse and repeat grinding but I got it.....the very last section of the stage were your on the motor board thing. Go down backwards and hold down the boost button and steadily tap the d-pad left or right. There's been about 3 or 4 times these last 2 days were I've got through the barge roof bit perfect and then missed the 1st or 4th box going down the waterfall and had to restart all over again and then suck at the barge roof part again.
502 boxes goddamn, that's got to be a record for most boxes in a level in the entire Crash franchise right?
This level is unreasonably hard. I’ve been trying to get the perfect relic for DAYS now and it’s just above my capabilities at this point.
I hate it with my whole heart… please send helppp!
Seriously one of the most frustrating levels I've played, I don't think the devs understand the difference between difficulty and blatantly unfair game design, the jetboard section at the end of the level is the epitome of annoying since you literally have to CHEESE IT just to get a tiny chance of hitting the boxes. No way in hell am I 100%ing this level
Its really easy. Try driving backwhards and boost while that to slow u down:)
@@reikertmaikert9249 yep, that's pretty much the ONLY way to get them. But to be fair, I'm pretty sure that's what OP meant by "cheesing" it (to me, though, that's the ONLY way).
@@reikertmaikert9249 yeah, but what about the FUCKING polar bear level? There's no going backwards there. I for real died 50 times trying to collect all of them before saying "fuck it, I'm done"
Collected every single box shown in this video and was still missing 4 at the end FML
Same idk where tf they are lol
@@mesacboy7939 they were probable in the beginning behind the fence. watch the start of the vid
@@imkingmailru I think it was the ones to the top right of the stairs at the start of the level that I missed, not 100% sure. Thanks though
got the n. sanely perfect relic second try. thought it was going to be as difficult as Run it Bayou, which took me 2 hours to get lol. I would recommend to anyone not good at the last boat part to NOT go backwards down the first slope, thats what got me my first time dying on this level. it confused me trying to go down backwards.
I took the long way to plat this game for sure, I first beat the game, then beat it on inverted, then went for all the gems on normal and inverted, and now I'm doing all the perfect relics and then the time trials. I think doing it this way has helped me become a lot more comfortable with the game though because I haven't had to restart any level so far more than 6-8 times for the perfect relic. Thank you so much for these guides as they help so much!!
you are a god this game made me quit gaming for months . i quit the game today its just not fun .
@@matthieumartelct I quit this game 2 separate times. but eventually came back and just had the motivation to finally finish it. It's a massive pain in the ass
clone > fake crash
At this point in the game i had to use RUclips, such a frustrating game but i keep playing. i die 20-50 times in order to beat these levels.
It's good to know i'm not the only one. It's a real challenge omfg!
I just died 38 times to get pass this level...
what part are you at? im at the snow covered area with the slippery ice and using the time freeze mask. This area isn't to bad, im dying about 20-25 times to finish a level. I think im at a boss fight now.
@@Daniel_D-bo im at the first level in the snowy area. Hey, do u have whatsapp man? Im going nuts here with this game hahaha
@@BEPRafael nah
2:14 For those Nitro Crates, I just took advantage of the AI and let them shoot the crates instead. Much safer that way.
Was about to comment the same
You can just jump across that nitro no need to hit it 😂💀
2:20 you can go around the nitro if you want
Quick tip guys, when you get the to first Crash section, guy in vid recommends not sliding, and for the first places when you have to be low, that's absolutely correct but when you get to the thin ones, sliding and double jumping is absolutely key to get some of the extremely high boxes. Great vid tho thanks
1:10 first checkpoint
2:30 second checkpoint
5:20 third checkpoint
I'm positive I got all the crates shown in the video, but I still came up 4 short at the end somehow.
When I get to the end I have the same amount of boxes, then when I hit the ! Box I’m 4 short
Levels like this is the reason my husband says watching me play this game is like me beating my head against a brick wall. That being said, great walkthrough!
Combated to Run It Bayou, this level was (relatively) easy. It only took me 2 hours to get the N. Sanely perfect relic instead of the 4 it took then. It’s still a pain in my ASS though. Screw Toys For Bob, they ruined the game.
Thank you again for another great video though! You are helping me so much!
Anyone else know the feeling of getting to the end of the level just to see you have 501/502?👿
Yes, after you just went through hell to get there only to do it all over again.
So I am very late to the party; but If there is anyone here watching and for some reason you keep missing 1-2 boxes like myself, it is because there's a bug in the very beginning of crashes run with the 2 boxes to the left. They don't get counted after the checkpoint If you break them too fast. I advise you go up the steps, break those crates FIRST and then come back and break those boxes. It should fix the bug 6:54
At 2:12, if you jump/hover around the nitro and land behind it, it will just explode by itself without having to do that throw jump.
This level is annoying and the N Verted version is insane.
The boat section with Crash is a NIGHTMARE if you going for all the boxes
I died 50 times there and at the end I got 490 boxes out of 502🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Update: lol I watched the video and I got every box then wtf☠️☠️
No Dillo Dallying is the most awesome name for a level I've ever heard.
It sounds a lot like "No Dingodiling" plus in Italian a crocodile is a "coccodrillo" (rhymes with "armadillo") while an armadillo is, well, armadillo, so there are two Dillos in one level.
The pun is a reference to "No dilly dallying" lol!
@@smoreblox3485 but yeah, we have two Dillos in the same level, a coccodrillo (dingodile) and an armadillo (the one driving the boat.
I can't imagine getting perfect on this one, took me 51 tries just for the box gem. If they patched it where you can get back upstream, then maybe, but that downhill is downright unfair.
Finally got through the boat section with all the boxes and the water section wasn't as hard for me but I still ended up 6 boxes short.
Same here. I have no clue what I did wrong. I have the same amount of boxes that he does at the start of the water section and then the same when I finish, but when I hit the nitro destroying box it goes to 498.
After 4 hours done this level too on perfect, damn dev...
Also during the last area with the waterboard you can repeatedly accelerate while going down the slope and go even slower while backwards.
Got to admit, trying to 100% the game isn't that fun
It is miserable. I expected difficulty. I've played previous Crash games. But this just isn't fun. Replay extremely long level wit unfair crate placements 25-30 times. Finally 100% the level. Move onto next extremely long level with unfair crate placements. I'm finding no time to actually take a second and enjoy the game. I know 100% is optional. So it's also my fault for focusing so much on it. But man, Toys for Bob. Would it have killed you folks to inject even a minimum amount of fun into your game?
Neil Miranda Or better yet, stop sticking the crates and hazards in really bullshit places.
The original Crash trilogy had those frustating levels, so stop crying and get better
Raiden I played the original trilogy including Stormy Ascent and none of them had levels as infuriating to 100% complete as some of Crash 4’s. They never got downright trollish with the crate placements as much as Toys For Bob did.
So quit acting like you’re the only one who doesn’t have an issue with the game’s wonky difficulty.
@@rayvenkman2087 Whenever there are discussions of game difficulty, there will inevitably be folks like Raiden who's default reply is "git gud". Their thought is that anyone who points out obvious flaws in level or game design is simply bad at games. To them, games are above criticism and any frustration is due to the players lack of skill. IMO, Crash 4 is a slog. The levels are too long and the crate and gem placement too cryptic. It isnt a matter of getting better at the game. I can persevere and 100% these levels. But that still won't make them good levels.
After 2 hours i finally got it! I honestly doubt i will ever platinum this game. It takes so much time and effor just to get the perfect run, and after that all lvls in nverted mode AND time trials? Its crazy!!
I gave up on platinum on this one, simply because of the time trials achievement (you have to get platinum on all levels). No way I'm even trying to do that. I spent 2 hours on 'a real grind' getting gold only to realize I need to cut it down by another 12 seconds to get the plat. Just.. nope.
That goat himself back at it again
I swear the Dev team were waiting for the day people would write comments about how this game is making them tear their hair out
I died 142 times during this damn level!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND I MISSED 2 BOXES!!!!
update: i redid it and it was easier after having done it so often. phew.
damn I so stupid didn’t try to blow the boxes at the other side of the fence in the beginning 😂
This game needs to come with difficulty levels. This is borderline sadistic
So I got through the entire level with all boxes but one. 501/502.
Where you take control of Crash again you have two boxes on the right and I only had one. 😭
It's strange, cause in the first check point he has 237 while i have 238, theres 1 box that is different when he was playing
Yeah, wait a few seconds before smashing it
i had this exact thing happen with the boxes on the left. Weird
By the way maka. That clone what you call is none other than fake crash!
I definitely misread that title
Same 😂
Thank you for guide, and for showing us the box count on every checkpoint, it really helpful.
Followed your guide, using the "play a bit of the vid, pause and play that part of the level, pause and play the vid, etc." method. ...Ended up with 492/502 boxes...
I hit the checkpoint before getting the other boxes right before it. If you die on the jetboard section, remember to go back & get them! Same thing happened to me.
@@tgirl1021 Oh fuck. Thanks so much.
Ugh, after going through hell in this level, I finally made it to the end relieved, only to learn that I was short 4 boxes. Now I have to do it all over again.
Dude that backwards move was clutch! Great idea
I think run it bayou took me longer than this one but getting the perfect relic was the most stressfull thing I have ever done in a game
After finishing
Run it Bayou
This was a walk in the park imo
The only hard part was the section before the jetsky
Stop talking shit.
Thank you for the vid. This level made me so damn mad I died so many times at the boat part the boat glitched and wouldn't move anymore so I had to restart the level. Idk how I'm ever going to get the perfect relic and I'm pissed I have to do this all again on inverted mode.
There is a bug when you die and return to the first checkpoint, a crate is missing where an ennemi hides on the right
I completed the level with no deaths but I missed 4 boxes😢
i don't believe it. the 4 boxes i'm missing are at the very beginning of the level. How i never seen them i'll never know.
I bet it’s the flat ones on the right, just before you get on the first boat ride
@@mielyt125 yep it was
finally i got that n sanely perfect relic
Its so weird how different levels are harder or easier for different people. I struggled with Rush Hour because it was so damn long and has a hard part right at the very end. This level is easy with one medium difficulty sequence with crash riding the boat. But its so short its not a problem.
I finally got the insanely perfect for this after 3 hours... The shit was not easy at all
The Dingodile portion is actually not even hard after 2-3 runs. Its the Crash portion thats the nightmare... That part with the moving platform ( trying to get all the boxes while not dying ), and then the final ridiculous jet ski portion. If you don't have at least 1 or 2 mask's during the jet ski part... You might as well forget it
2:24 you can actually hover around the nitro right there and the enemy will blow it up for you.
Never felt so cheated with a game than this. It’s like the devs just threw it a ton of random boxes to make it hard without considering if it was actually still fun to play. With other crash games there was certainly a challenge but felt I’d earned it when I finally got a gem or Crystal. CB4 just ends up being endless repeats until you get some dumb luck
You know what.. in comparison to Run It Bayou it actually wasn't that bad. However, on the final jump on the boat section my jump would glitch and I would stay crouched even when In the open.
E.g I would jump, but it's a jump crouch whilst the motion is still in crouch so it couldn't transform into the double jump.
There’s an easier way to get the river boat to move if you just jump and hover around the nitro wall and land on the dock, you can trigger the enemy to shoot the wall of nitro for you. And then your just good to go
The fact that you have to do it all over again for N.Verted...
I have 499 boxes every time when I have 466, is there something I am missing?
I like this level, but collecting all those crates at the boat section is a PAIN and requires some good reflexes and precise inputs for sure. I'm doing a second playthrough of the game and just skipping the gem collecting on some of the harder levels :P What I've noticed is that the game is actually pretty slow paced because of all the hidden crates you have to be on the lookout all the time.
EOUASIDHAIDBA I DID IT! Didn't even lose a mask.
Took about 90+ mins of practice, mostly the truck section that can bug out, or you can slide into or out of the screen, resulting in a slide that goes nowhere.
Protip for the final section of the truck segment: duck, let the truck take you under the obstacle and then jump on to the dbl TNT, bounce (hold jump), then dbl jump for the box. If you slide under that obstacle before this you risk blowing up the TNT and that's an instant fail. So yeah, you've way more time than you'd think to do the final part.
the last section with the jetboard is by far the most challenging part
500 boxes over and over, I watched and followed your guide step by step.
I really dont understand how am I missing 2 boxes
@@rocketeerlovely To think how many hours I could save on all levels if there wasnt a issue like this ...
On the Nintendo Switch version, I've got every box, yet my box count is always bugged. Only ever get 132 at the first checkpoint, sometimes give or take one. Always finish the level with 4 boxes or so missing, even though I didn't miss any. Only got every box once in N. Verted mode. Can't figure out how to fix the glitch. And it's not the 2 boxes at the start of the Crash section that people say are bugged. No matter what, I just can't get 136 at the first section. It's frustrating.
I'm following your guide to the letter, but I keep missing like four boxes!
@@rocketeerlovely
I basically had to do a no death run.
@@rocketeerlovely It was horrible, I still haven't gotten all inverted gems. Especially not on the last couple levels. Those 3 Death ones can jump off a cliff!
I missed 4 right at the start, before he gets on the boat, he grabs 4 boxes level with the platform with the vacuum. No idea those were there lol, kept missing 4 too.
I don't know why but still I can't find the last box !!! I do everything you do in the video and still missing one ☹️
dude same thing happen in this level. I had 466 boxes at the end just like you.. but when I triggered the nitro switch I had 501/502... i don't get it... it must a bug or something
I was 2 short at the end and what I figured out was that when the level switches from dingo to crash it never spawned the 2 boxes on the right side of the dock were you start off. If this happens and you die and restart at the dock they still dont spawn you have to literally restart the entire level.
When i played they spawned but still had 501/502. WHAT DE PHOOOOK
Thanx for the tip driving backwards, it really helped 😊
It’s a terrible game difficulty-wise, were the developers drunk when making this?!?
It's a great game difficulty-wise. Were you drunk when playing this?
In other words: this is Crash Bandicoot 4. The game is SUPPOSED TO BE HARD! Git gud, scrub.
@@JameyMcQueen I have played all 3 games in the original trilogy and 100% all 3 of them. And none of them had levels as difficult as this game. Sure they had some tough levels, but nowhere near this difficult. Some of the hidden gems are just in blatantly unfair places. So go sit down somewhere with that "get good" nonsense. Stop acting like anyone who has a hard time with some of the levels sucks at the game.
I am always missing a freaking box in the waterfall
Crash 4: It's about time, 502 rates in a level. Crash 5 (whatever the title is): 1,502 crates in a bonus round only
This level is fun,but it’s the boat and jetboard section that ruins it.I died 75 times it’s painful
this level isn't to bad once you learn that holding down the jump button makes your jump even higher.
Thank you so much for all you do man!
this level took a combined 120 lives from me on both this and the Nverted variants just trying to get all boxes, and i still failed
the issue is you get back the lives you lose in this level as well so my counter stayed at 99 lives so i had to suffer longer
I think this lvl is bugged cause i'm doing exactly what you're doing and i still come out 2 short by the second checkpoint.
So there is a annoying bug when u switch from Dingo to Crash the two boxes on the right will DESPAWN if u die during the ride. Really annoying.
There’s a error that happens, sometimes the mask box where the gunners are sometimes don’t appear. It happened on the inverted version
Shout out to Fake Crash for his appearance in this game.
Why is the Abu aka over the boat ride so damn awkward I don’t die I just keep missing that and having to restart it’s almost impossible to hit
I HATE THIS LVL. I HATE THE BOAT DAMN!!!! I DIED 124 TIMES!! 😤😤😭😭😭
After 141 goes, I managed to get all the boxes 😂
I did 202 lmao
