Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando is a 2003 3D platformer video game developed by [[Insomniac Games]]. The gameplay of ''Going Commando'' is similar to that of the original ''Ratchet & Clank''. The player explores planets in the "Bogon" Galaxy and undertakes missions. It contains more mini-games than were present in the previous game. The game also introduces role-playing game (RPG) elements, such as upgradeable weapons. ''Going Commando'' was released roughly a year after its predecessor, and received very positive reviews. Critics noted the game's improved graphics, longer gameplay, and added role-playing elements as being major improvements over the original, but also criticized the game for its very high difficulty.

|Comments=Much better graphical fidelity than 1.4.0 (especially with mipmapping), though minor issues persist such as the pause menu being completely opaque. Slowdown between 90 and 100% is somewhat common. However, more demanding levels such as Endako will frequently be in the high 80s and low 90s, and will sometimes even dip down into the mid-to-high 70s. No crashes thus far. Note: I did not see a noticeable speed difference between D3D11 and OpenGL, although Ratchet's shadow was broken with D3D11.

|Comments=BIOS: USA 2.00. Played at full speed. Opaque background to menus, but it's worth it to stay in hardware mode. Crashed once when a level was being loaded, but it was after hours of play. The game auto-saves before this. Anisotropic Filtering is optional.

|Comments=Game is very demanding. Occasionally slows down with EE Cyclerate 0, but setting to -1 activates the game's internal frameskipping. This may make the game play better but YMMV, it slows some sections down to a crawl. Solid background menus are fine, since other than that and some minor lighting glitches, the game looks great.

|Comments= I had zero game breaking issues with Going Commando and I played it all the way through completion. Zero crashes and zero visual bugs (other than the menu screen ofc). I DID have minor fps drops at the very start of my playthrough, but that went away on it's own and I never had them again. Might have been some weird nightly build regression or something. Anyway that was only for the first hour, the rest of my hours were near perfect.

|Comments=PCSX2 crashed when loading Maktar in challenge mode, but the game never crashed again and loaded after a restart, so this was probably a one-off. When loading a savestate saved when moving between planets, PCSX2 ejects the memory cards, but you can still save after landing. Models stretched/warped on Oozla and Snivelak, but in the latter case PCSX2 updated after I closed it and the issue was fixed when I restarted the game. Towards the beginning of the game the pause screen showed solid colours, but after an update this was fixed, though the screen changed to native resolution when paused. There was some relatively minor lag in the opening cutscene before the first visit to Aranos and at the beginning of some planets, most notably Maktar and Dobbo, but this stops once you move the camera. The only area where lag affected gameplay at all was in some parts of Grelbin. It never reached unplayable speed but not much seemed to be going on when it did lag. These were all GS bottlenecks so GPU palette conversion would probably have improved performance. Other than that, full speed. Fully playable.

{{Issue
{{Issue
|IssueName=Megaturret Glove's turrets don't work
|IssueName=Framerate dips
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=-1
|Description=R&C's framerate may dip when many (small) enemies or allies are in view. This occurs on original hardware.
|Workaround=First verify that your device is not the bottleneck if you experience framerate dips. If your device is too slow and you attempt the following fix, you will make the problem worse. Try to overclock the EE Cycle Rate under Settings > Emulation. 130% fixes almost all slowdowns in exchange for a higher GPU and CPU utilization. Higher values than 130% lead to certain instabilities.

|IssueName=Vertex stretching
|IsFixed=0

|Description=The upgraded turret glove's turrets loop the deployment animation and sound continuously and can't shoot anything.
|Description=Some polygons on Ratchet, Clank, and most enemies' models stretch/warp on Oozla and Snivelak.
|Workaround=There's no known solution.
|Workaround=Restart PCSX2. If this doesn't fix it, enable Full VU0 Synchronisation under Properties/Game Fixes. This does increase EE usage, but is unlikely to affect performance on most recent midrange or higher systems.
