GuNz_52 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Or am I the only one having trouble shooting at the constant missiles and electric rings? Not to mention, the amount of health the chopper has....LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekenna Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Only shoot 1 time at the 'Electric Rings' if you fire 2 times, you wil reactivate the electicity in the rings. And your chopper's health will you down very fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester695 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Horrendous start to this boss fight. It goes on forever since the controls are so ridiculously bad in these first-person shooter stages. It registers one or two hits for about every 20 you hit her with. Old programming trick to extend the life of a short game by making you do certain parts over and over and over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For every shot i hit it still registered Although they probably did very little damage so it can be hard to notice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReynosoSix Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 after 3 trys I figured you kinda have to lead the birds direction a little in order to land a shot, thats how I was able to beat her... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VazzVegas Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Only took me 2 tries. Once i learned that you should only shoot the rings once and then let them pass, it was easy. Just go all out when you see a red missle to blow it up, and at other times, fire in short bursts so the gun recharges constantly. Clock-La was 10 times easier than Clockwork from Sly 1.

jaymzbarron Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 It took me a couple of tries as well but once you grasp it, it becomes pretty easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deviousdave Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I found it incredibly annoying and a little difficult but that was on ps2 on the collection it was a bit difficult but only took me 2 tries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SauntR Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 It's the hardest part of the game, but should be manageable in a few tries. It kinda drags since she has so much health, so you have to try to keep your patience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semifreak de Bolacha Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Took me a few tries , the problem here, as so in other parts of the game, are the terrible controls when it comes to first person shooting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max2346 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Clock-La was 10 times easier than Clockwork from Sly 1. I so freaking agree. Clockwork was the biggest pain in my ass since i almost broke my tailbone. LOL But seriously i have always found Clock-La to be easy to beat. (At least on PS2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
empy90 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I found it extremely easy..after I found out you only need to hit those rings once lol I actually had the most problems with the two first bosses in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueTigerCub Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 I so freaking agree. Clockwork was the biggest pain in my ass since i almost broke my tailbone. LOL But seriously i have always found Clock-La to be easy to beat. (At least on PS2) Agreed. This battle only took me like 3 attempts. The Boss from Sly 1 took quite a few more tries! Despite the harder boss, I think Sly 1 was a much better game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mann0802 Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 She was a bit of a pain but I agree with the other people above me. Clockwerk was worse especially with those bad checkpoints in the first game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzamaro Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 It took me 3 tries, but as long as you stay calm, you will get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LikeRain Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Horrendous start to this boss fight. It goes on forever since the controls are so ridiculously bad in these first-person shooter stages. It registers one or two hits for about every 20 you hit her with. Old programming trick to extend the life of a short game by making you do certain parts over and over and over. This is how I feel. The controls...well the aim seems to jerk around rather than moving smoothly, so I feel like it's total luck if I get the missiles before they hit me. I've been trying now, I don't know how long. For all the people who say it was easy...any tips? I'm sure a lot of you are just plain better at it than me, but I don't think I'm THAT bad...I've played a lot of aiming/shooting games, flying or not, and I've never felt like finding the target is so out of control!

LikeRain Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 (edited) I finally got it and I'll give my advice about how I did it for anyone who's still struggling: First off, don't give up. It sucks (it did for me) but it's one of those things you have to keep practicing. I tried for literally hours...not 2 tries, not 10, but maybe dozens! Practice helped me get better at hitting the first two kinds of missiles, and stopping Clock-La's red blast thing. Getting to know what order they are coming, and just practicing working with the jerky aim helped me. I would sometimes keep hitting the bird and leave the missiles until they were a little closer and easier to hit. I finally got to where I was able to not get hit through the first stage so that when the rings are coming I had enough health to take a few hits without dying. Because I found that there was no way to stop both the rings and the red blast sometimes, so you have to take one or the other. I also watched a video of someone beating it, and was relieved that you only have to get the bird's health down about 2/3, not all the way. As I was getting closer to that with my better runs, I had the hope to keep trying. I honestly disliked this game and only played it because I got it free...if I didn't plat it because of this one annoying boss I would have been.....well...............not happy.

mjfan97 Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 It's really annoying how long this boss fight is and how everytime you die you have to restart at the beginning because of this games shitty checkpoints. That being said, it only took me a few tries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_LWL Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 I agree with some of the things that were said above. I just beat this today and it was frustrating but definitely do-able. You just have to be patient. Don't wait on shooting missles or rings just to get more hits on Clock-La. As soon as the missles or rings come out, you should concentrate on those first. And also... It did take me a couple tries to figure out that the rings were just an on\off switch. I couldn't figure it out until about my fifth time dying.

BalthierV Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 fucking hate this boss, obviouslt got her but shes such a pain!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phyrexian Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 This boss was def. a pain in the ass. Thanks to the tip of shooting the damn electric rings once though beat her on the first attempt after finding out. Failed a a ton before that though. Glad it's Plated.

Spannerhead29 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 If you think you guys had trouble, after beating her after the 6th or 7th time, my game froze, so I had to restart, oh boy that was fun -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GearsOfTheDead Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) She seemed worse before I figured out the tricks that were mentioned earlier in the thread. I actually started repositioning my right hand on the controller almost like on a steering wheel so I could more easily rapidfire. Doing the traditional clicking of the R2 just started tiring out my index finger when trying to rapidly hit it. Worse for me was jumping from piece to piece when Arpeggio's place is falling from the sky. Sometimes things would tilt just right and I'd land, others I'd just barely miss. It was just too touchy no matter the timing. Then, with Clock-la, it had to be bad design or something...I just stood next to her head and kept whacking her. Thing is, the last couple of hits were tricky because I had to inch back so she'd tilt her head towards me and I could TRY to whack her. Felt so glitchy.

kristomizer Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 (edited) I hate this crap! I shoot her til I get her health to about 25% and the game freezes! It is very annoying! Edit: Got it!
