LittleBigPlanet - Play, Create and Share.

I have to say, I'm chuffed with the ammount of DLC that Mm has produced and the regularity of it. Week in and week out they've delivered something nice. :)

Most games don't see DLC for months, and even then it's sporadic release dates.

I am feeling grumpy and disagree :p

Up till this week all they have provided is costumes, which are overpriced tbh as they are purely cosmetic. I have bought the sf2 one, so far.

Now we get the xmas pack, which is cool for designing levels and the MGS pack looks great!!


They still have to deliver servers that can handle the Play Create Share ratings (that are zero for everyone, last time I looked), they worked in BETA but not yet on live servers after 2 monthsish?

Also they still have to deliver on online co-op level design which was gonna be patched in.

It's not all roses in LittleBigPlanet :D

Some good stuff in there. Especially the images from HDD. Been waiting ages for that.

Might not be expansive DLC. but it's there and expanding at least. :)

How many other games have had official DLC every week since launch? I can't think of any. :)

Me doing a bodged cut and paste of the full thing. :o I think the writer got bored when he did the list. :p
The end of the list goes:

# Improved Sackboy animation and made it harder to slap accidentally while acting
# Fixed lights so they don’t forget their colour
# If anything I can say this cab is rare
# Improved Online multiplayer level selection
# And I yelled to the cabbie ‘Yo homes smell ya later’
# I looked at my kingdom
# I was finally there
# To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Air…

Played a good few community levels last night for the first time in a while, and have to say some of them are really good :)

It wouldn't surporise me if in 6 months the levels are close to the Mm story levels which is impressive.
 
They should bring out a new third person shooter game mode, like soldat. All you have to worry about on your screen is just your character, then go around shooting other players, how ace would that be, would be loads of fun designing levels for it

Just my luck they release 1.07 just as I am saying they don't fix stuff :) Fixes listed are nice (yet mainly minor). My main point was they promised that online co-op level design was a priority for them. Them making new sackboys, level packs, PSP version etc means it is not (MM are a very small dev team, if they are busy creating DLC they are not spending time doing other stuff imo).

Also yeah character packs are nice, but they do not represent any real work by the devs. I have no doubt in my mind they take a very short amount of time to make (tbh licensing probably takes longer than the actual suit creation). It's just cheap, easy, cosmetic content that they can guarantee to sell every week, nothing more, nothing less.

For all I know they made 200 costumes and are just dripping them out every week.

I would wager the DLC has been finished for a while now. Even a year ago some vids showed things like the god of war levels and the sephiroph sackboy. I reckon MM are currently working on fixing the issues the game has but, due to the aforementioned limited number of staff, it's taking them a while.

They are busy making LBP PSP. The crazy thing is, compared to other games LBP has under delivered in terms of post release fixes but people forget easily when they get given cute costume packs every week!!.

I don't mean to be grumpy but the game had a big open beta, a long time in development, no doubt large amount of Sony resources, "benefitted" from a release delay. I personally am disappointed that paid addon packs are being released before the core game is "fixed". (Even though LBP is in my top 3 this year and I will buy the MGS pack as it is pretty "game changing" imo).

I can't find the quote now, but I seem to recall them saying they were adding co-op level deign as a priority and it would form part of the 1st major update pack and was due 2008. The 1st major update is a paid MGS pack that has probably been ready for ages :(

Tried reading the comments for a level? Most the hard ones for a level with have comments within the first few pages sometimes.

If no luck there have you tried GameFaqs? That's bound to have something.

Which ones are you missing?
