The Pants Party Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 (edited) TIP: Search for canisters before anything else! This way you won't have grabbed any during missions and everything will be in place when using the map. Now, open the map in the program Paint or something similar. Every time you collect a canister, use the eraser tool to erase it off the map. Every time you save your game, save the map to your desktop so everything matches up. Do not save the map without saving your game! I saved the map once and then my game froze and I lost all my progress on the canisters, but a bunch were now erased off my map and I didn't know which ones. Oh, and start from the top, going back and forth like the way a printer prints out a sheet. I did the entire top section, then left side, then the right side, then central park, then the left half of the bottom, then the right half of the bottom. Better to cut it into sections like that, I think. Edited June 21, 2008 by The Pants Party Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackDragon Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I'm in exactly the same situation - 100 Gamma Canisters, 99 Fury Canisters, already crossed out everything on the map... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mksystem74 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I actually had no problem with the canisters at all except the ones that were out of place on the map guide. Surprisingly because i'm horrible at maps and collecting things. I would suggest that keeping your warning level at 0 helps cause the red ones make a faint sound and with the music and people trying to kill you is a distraction you can do without. I believe that all red canisters (except the ones at the docks and central park) are on top of buildings in plain sight. A few are inside of something, like a water tower or those little structures. The map is mostly dead on with the locations, so try putting your courser right on the spot. that's what I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackDragon Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Sigh... I guess it's just the Christmas Light Conondrum - having to check all 100 just to find the ONE that's off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRIKER Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Don't forget about the ones in water towers and sheds. I was in the Gamma canister 98 club until my game save reset. I went back and found every green canister and traded the game in for $20. RRIKER ANGRY, but he got $20 for not smashing the game. boy though, I was stewing in my own rage as I crossed off each canister from the map.

Filter x360a Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I'm missing 3 Gammas and 4 Furrys. I've gone through with the map and crossed each one off as I got it. Process of elimination...this game is proving more frusterating then it's worth...GRRR... FX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pants Party Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 Finally got it during my fourth run through the map! My last one was SW of Madison Square Garden about halfway up the building on a ledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRIKER Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 (edited) Finally got it during my fourth run through the map! My last one was SW of Madison Square Garden about halfway up the building on a ledge. I hate those you have to climb most sides of the building before you hear it, and by that point, the building is quite fragile. Anyway, congrats! Enjoy your endzone dance. If a whole bunch of people start making 99/98 thread, I request sticky of this thread (since it was started by a Mod anyway).

The Pants Party Posted June 18, 2008 Author Share Posted June 18, 2008 No, it was on the map. Not the next exact building, just the first one SW of MSG. Just was tough cause it wasn't on top of the building, but on a ledge halfway up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GalaxyRed13 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I used the map that was at wikicheats (before I noticed that there was an edited map here), and from that map, I was able to get all Fury canisters, but I missed 2 Gamma canisters, because they were in the wrong place, or just not shown at all. The edited map, however, showed one of the canisters I missed, but the other spot (the one in the southeast) didn't have a canister at all.

GalaxyRed13 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 (edited) The entire block where that supposed canister is supposed to be was pretty short (not like most of the other locations, where the building are pretty high off the ground, and have canisters in objects, and some of them had canisters in the alley-like areas, which this one does not), and I heard no chimes at all. Which got me thinking that it's probably not in that area that's mentioned. EDIT: So, what's so "weird" about this ledge? That's not really much to go on.

Scable Logo Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 After having collected canisters here and there I've gone the full way around the map looking for them. End result was 100 gammas and 95 fury. Guess I'll have to take another round on the map. And yes the fury hum is quite faint. Ah well, gonna smash the city up some more and then see if I get lucky heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filter x360a Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Finally got all of the canisters. Took me 3 run throughs with a map and a pen. What I ended up doing was checking every building next to the one marked (espically if they we higher up) to get a better perspective of possible locations of the canister. Wish I would have thought of it my first time through though. FX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
its delicious Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 (edited) After my first attempt, I have two fury canisters left. (Got all the Gamma ones.) I'll try to remember to post which ones, if and when I find them. Edit: 1.) Between the Latverian Embassy and Central Park, on the same building as the comic book. The comic book is on the very top of the building, the Rage canister was on the west side of the same building on a ledge. Poor camera angles made this one difficult for me to find.

Woah, Delicious...listing 200 or so canister descriptions may be a bit much. If you really want to do something like that, may I recommend getting a clean copy of the gamma/rage map, numbering them, and writing your own little guide on how to get them. Submit to a new thread and/or GameFAQS/Wikicheats, as many people will be looking to it for assistance. Good luck if you want to go through with it. If you want, after you number the map and I'm sure a couple of forum posters will post a few descriptions you can use . OR you can take a screencap of each one before you get it and upload it to a picassa album (see crackdown - hidden orbs guide). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
its delicious Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 (edited) Ha, hell no am I listing *every* canister. I was just going to list the two rage ones I had trouble finding. (Much like slumber/pants party did with the SW of MSG one.) Right now I could either go through all the points yet again and hope to find the one remaining canister I need, or I could just start a new game and collect them all. The latter seems like it will actually be faster, or at least less excruciating. Edit: I started a new game and collected them all after the subways opened up. This whole process took about 1 and 3/4 hours, in which time I got a whole mess of feats and unlocked all the subways. Much easier than trying to track down the last canister, and alot less reliant upon luck. Also, a second run-through the canisters did not reveal which one I had been missing.

Fidibus Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 Just a humble contribution because I just nailed the 1000... after my first run I ended with 920GP and pulled a double 99 on the canisters. So I pulled the (updated) map and started over. Here are some things that made my life easier... - Do a little mission work. Let the game guide you through the first steps (climbing the building etc.) and than help the reporter on the first new york mission. - this will unlock subways and enclave teams. With this you can unlock both jump upgrades and sprinting in no time (matter of minutes really). This allowed me to clear the map in 90 minutes. BTW I also used the "punch travel" a lot. This is when you do a charged jump and in mid air you do a charged punch. Hulk will stop its ballistic curve do a flying punch and than resume the curve, which allows you do do a lot of rooftops in a very short time. - of course I used the "paintshop-cross off the map" as well, which I only saved AFTER I used the subway. I forced myself to save after every 10 canisters. This was kind of a "freeze-crash"-proof way. Thanks again for the map. Hope that helps.
