Legends SeaMonster Sucks!!!!

[runrun]

I have now wasted several playstation hours of my time on the English level trying to overcome badly written code. The SeaMonster level totaly spoils what could have been a very good game.
When I discovered that the cages did not work, I restarted the level and resaved without trying them out first (this renders them all inoperable!).
So far I have discovered that to have any chance at all you need to start on the right hand side for anything to work at all............After several hours of shooting the pump then trying to grapple the lever I eventually succeded in getting the first cage to land on the creaturea head once! Mostly the grapple doesnt connect or only does so on the second or third throw and then misses the monster which has, by then, moved. What are the odds on getting four cages to fall consecutivly?
I believe that this game is flawed. All copies so far distributed should be replaced once the code has been rewritten. I am very very surprised that the game had been allowed to be launched with such a serious defect and hope trust that it will be reported fully in the games magazines and public newspapers. When it starts to effect Eidod,s share price maybe we will get some action. At the moment I feel let down and totaly ripped off!!!!!!

hmmmm, well thousands upon thousands upon hundreds of thousands and possibly currently a fair few million people across the world have gotten past this bit so it can't be that flawed. Just stick with it, you'll get it, you know what you need to do, but... and I don't mean to fan your flames any higher than they already are... you're simply not doing it right yet.

Took me a fair few tries to get it, the trick is to not hammer away at the grapple button but keep your cool and wait for her to put the guns away then press and hold the grapple button once. Its a heart in the mouth moment as you wait for her to put those damn guns away but it does work. And make sure you've shot the bells for long enough to completely hypnotise the stupid snake. Usually takes about 4-5 seconds of solid shooting.

Thanks for that advice. I will try it again with your suggestions when I feel calmer!

lol, if its any consolation there's not a single one of us here who hasn't felt the rage you're currently feeling and been absolutely convinced its the game at fault and not us... until we crack it.

That, my friend, is Tomb Raider!

Your advice was spot on, I have just done it in less time than it takes to spit!
The Secret was to go for the grapple as soon as its attention is grabbed. I.E. Not to carry on shooting for one second longer than necessary!!!!!!!
Ureka! Hoora!!!!!! And Thanks a lot.XXXXXX

We found that if you tap the button that pulls on the grapple this causes the bug to occur. In this section you should just hold the button down and not tap it.

yes that is as long as she don't toss the grapple at the lever thats behind her instead of the one she's facing.and after you stop shooting , be patient , she'll put her guns away eventually.
