They are dark eco canisters. Guards in Jak II shoot the same thing in the Dig Site, but texture is bugged in all versions. Also, there was a Boom Stick weapon in Jak II before the Peace Maker, and its projectile was basically the same dark eco canister that dig site guards use in final version.

Even still I remember developers talking about how in the first game alot was cut because they building a game and the engine. Where as jak 2 and 3 use that engine, the developers would've had alot more experience plus a pretty good base to start with.

This would have been a version only four months out from the release of the game, if this is from July 2004, so I'd imagine it is pretty close to finished. Jak 3 was also developed with Jak 2 as a base, and I imagine a lot of basic systems, animations, even many models and assets were simply ported over from that game and already "complete" from the start.

4 months is extremely long time in game development. But if I recall correctly, this is not that old, because the final build was done a while before the release (this was normal back then because they couldn't just fix bugs later in a patch). The Hidden Palace page should tell how old this is.

Actually thinking about it some more. It would have been really cool if throughout the sewer levels you catch glimpses of this thing stalking you. Like seeing it scurrying across the ceiling in the distance, watching you from behind grates, occasionally seeing a targeting laser from behind but disappear before you can see from where. Then at the very end it crawls up the ledge to confront you. That would have really fit the scout part of it's name.

Or having both, with one as an alt fire could've been cool, but I don't know how they would've translated that to the controls. Maybe you have to crouch while you shoot to release the black hole after charging it up or something?

The entire water side of Haven City looks the way it does in Jak II, missing powerlines and tubes to move around the platform towers, and the glider meter also works as the unfinished vehicle health meter. Probably a lot more differences.

Awesome video! I didn't know that the Alpha was still out there - it's impressive how close it is to the final version though. I recently tried out PCSX2 after having left it for a few years and Jak 3 runs so much more smoothly now. Also waiting patiently for OpenGOAL to port Jak II and 3 to run natively on PC but thankfully they've got the first game working at least.

Other differences I noticed that you didn't show in the video: You can destroy your veichles in the garage without triggering a game over Desert cars physics are way different, they feel like there's less gravity. There are more enemies in some stages and usually they take more hit pointrs to be killed Precursor's Robot Boss Battle has enemies with a different color, also you can't kill them only by shooting at them (in the final game, you can kill them with punches too) In the same boss battle, the cargos you have to throw to the boss have less hit points, you can literally throw them down with 3 bullets, you need a lot more hits in the final game to do so. There's an inedit mission after you get the Dark Punch power for Dark Jak, you can't complete it sadly. Jinx has brown hair, also his mission isn't really working properly 2nd and 3rd arena missions have the stage layout swapped, complete with a different cutscene when you meet Sig. When you get back to Haven City, Keira isn't there and Samos is stuck on a T-Pose, it triggers the wrong cutscene and trying to pass the barrier with debug mode somehow kills you immediately with an explosion. Also, maybe you don't really care about it, but Italian translation still has some typos in the subtitles,that they obviously weren't in the final game (for example, you can see "Jack" instead of "Jak" sometimes, that happened to the EU Jak 3 stand-alone demo also). If in the Italian version you eject the disk, you can read the title written as "Jak 3: Renegade", which is likely a poorly modified leftover, but still worth nothing in my opinion. I remember a Ratchet 3 beta that had a pretty big amout of interesting differences in Italian language that the other 4 languages didn't have, I can't really tell if this is the same case, I'm looking forward to find some of them in this beta too.

Weird that the Beam Reflexor actually did once consume 2 ammo per shot as opposed to 1. While playing Jak 3 I always think something like that would make the weapon a bit more balanced, and always thought the identical ammo consumption to the normal Blaster was just an oversight or mistake.

Does it still use one ammo per enemy hit in this early build? Or was it just double consumption flat-rate? I think one ammo per hit in the final version is pretty fair.
