The Official 'I'm Stuck' and Strategy thread...

Might not be a bad idea for one, no?

I’m currently stuck on the stay puft building level, with all the marshmellow creations in the vent. They drop out of the vent and they always back me into a corner. I can’t figure out how to blast 'em after wave 3.

Keep moving and using Boson darts, stay away from Ray, as that’ll help split the smore babies up.

I’m getting a 5/6 on my ghost scans on the first Sedgewick level and it’s driving me insane. I got Slimer, Sloth, bellhops, kitchen golem, papy, and candlesticks…

EDIT: Never mind, just figured it out. In order for your Ghost Scans x/x to be full, you have to have a 100% scan. I only had half on those stupid candlesticks.

Might be a glitch or I might be missing something…

I have scanned everything in the game but the game says I am missing one ghost on the Museum level. I checked the game guide when I was at best buy today and found which one I was missing (Venom Crawler). So I replay that scene, it’s the last one on the level where you fight the boss. I scan the venom crawler, but my Tobin’s Spirit Guide doesn’t update. I scanned at least 10 of those things with no result…but the PKE screen recognizes them now. I don’t have the entry.

Glitch? Or did I screw up?

The PKE meter recognizes the venom crawlers on a later level, but they still don’t show up in the Guide.

Weird!

Weird. On the first two levels I had about 3 artifacts and 3 ghosts scanned, but it didn’t save them. I don’t know what happened, the toaster was even in the firehouse, then later it was gone and I had to “find” it again. This didn’t happen with the later levels, but I really don’t know what this was all about.

OK, I got past the marshmellow guys… But I had to replay from start and pick beginner .

I REALLY hope it saved right this time, because I’m 2 hours and 15 minutes of straight on ghostbusting and don’t want to have to repeat it.

I’m past the librarian ghost, and up to the portal section. I can’t figure out which buttons to use to pull the bridge down with the slime teather. I only get one teather out and it doesn’t tighten..

Whatever version of the game you’re playing, you need to fire the slime tether TWICE. Once at the object you want to pull, and fire again at an anchor point somewhere. If the tether is still hanging on your gun, you’re doing it wrong. So shoot the bridge, then shoot the ground.

Hey Guys, Loving the game so far its Amazing however i need some assistance. I am stuck opening the castle door on shandor Island the one in the hedge maze. I know your supposed to use the slime teather however I can’t get the sequence right to do so, Please Help

Cheers

If I’m thinking of the same thing you are, there are two large wheels in the corners that need to be turned using the slime tether.

If i am remembering correctly there was no sequence. You just have to use the slime tether to turn the crank that opens the door. the crank kind of looks like a steering wheel on an old ship, but it only has 4 “grips.” If you slime tether one of the “grips” to the wall next to the wheel it will turn it. You have to do it a couple of times as the wheel turns to open the door completely.

(While you’re there… don’t forget to destroy the hedges! :wink: )

And to turn the other “wheel”.

What are you supposed to do in the 2nd phase of the library golem fight? Am I supposed to switch to a regular pack and blast it’s top off? Do I need to continually switch back to the stasis beam to keep him from gunning at me? I’ve played this until my hands hurt and can’t get past it.

ghostdiva: Do you mean the 2nd phase of the main boss fight fight in the library? If so, the strategy that worked for me is to blast its head with darts or the proton pack while staying near the teleporters around the room. Once you get his attention and he starts to charge you, back up into the teleporter and you’ll end up at the opposite side of the room. Just repeat this process and you should wear him down in no time.

No, unfortunately I am talking about the first battle in the library, I am not an experienced gamer who, ironically enough, started with the experienced level, they only games I’ve made it through all started their title with Zelda:, so yeah, the first battle. Do you use those dart things at all here?

Once you get his health in the red you need to switch back to the proton stream. Once you are shooting him with the proton stream switch it to the capture stream and rip off his head. It should look like a table lamp. You do it the same way you took down the kitchen golem/Pappi Sargassi at the hotel.

Now it’s my turn to ask for some help. Right now I’m stuck on the cemetary level where the stone angels first appear.

Is there a secret strategy for opening the gate or is it just unfairly difficult? (several times I died within 30 sec. of trigging the event)

I was using the proton stream instead of the recomemded slime thether since I am not as good with it. Do I really need the thether?

Thanks guys, I’m now past the library to the “other” part!

Im on the wii version, on the island, ive activated two of the slime pumps and am at a point where theres a gate connected to a weight, i pull on it, it only goes up a little way then it comes back down. Ive tried everything including using the nearyby stones to walk in the canal.

Yes you need to use the tether what you do it shoot one end at the brick wall above the gate and then the other end to one of the angels and it will bash the angel into the wall above the gate and eventually after doing it 8 to 10 times the wall and gate will break open

You can get the same effect by using the Proton stream.

Wrangle them with the capture stream and slam them into the gate, and it’ll open.

Actually, if you just slam them into the glowing heads on the gate, three cherubs total will work.
