Tr3vor Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 its not the levels that much, its the controlls. everything is like in slow mo, you jump up really slow, you fall like you have a parachute on and everything feels like your in space. I can own smb and all that and harder games like blaster master, but I just can't do LBP with precision... Am I the only one who thinks this is hard?

Sir Guntz Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 I too think the physics are a load of crap in Little Big Planet. In fact, many side scrollers, especially polygonal ones, have horrifically bad jumping mechanics and physics. New SMB Wii is very frustrating to play when you treat it like Mario 3 or World.

SlowCoder Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 It does have a mushy feel to it. I guess maybe to keep with the theme of playing with a mushy sack avatar. Even so, I've never had a problem playing. Game play itself not withstanding, this was one of the games I first thought was fascinating, with the colorful fantasy levels, and whatnot. But after the fascination wore off, the game isn't that fun any more. It's not really an adventure game. More of a physics engine disguised as a platformer. My son, however, plays it often. We have LBP 1 for PS3 and PSP, and he still wants to get LBP2. He seems to like quite a bit, and really enjoys designing levels and trying out new things.

Reaperman Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 (edited) The control is a little off, and on top of it, it's overly complex. Combined with the chosen 'artistic style' of the thing, and I'm not a huge fan. I am a huge fan of toolkits in games generally, though. I like to create, and very few games directly scratch that itch. BudgeCo sold me on the idea long ago.

Tr3vor Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 I say both of you lighten up. If anyone said something as stupid as I said, i would think they were a moron too. IDK, I would say something more, but I'm having a hard time putting my thoughts into text right now (I'm not that much of a text kind of guy, more of a show you/example/verbal kind of guy) so I'll leave it at that. Anyway, I see no reason to be offended or to get mad or anything of that sort. BTW, yes the world has enough morons, I've seen many on the road today driving recklessly.

We are still having problems with missing smilies?? Go away for a year and come back hoping this issue has been addressed, but no, people still haven't grasped the importance of the smiley face. Damn it, people get with the program!!

pce_collector Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I struggled with Little Big Planet, particularly with the obstacles. To me, the jumping was always hit or miss. One time, I'd easily make the jump. The next two attempts, I'd drop straight into a pit. I just couldn't enjoy the game as the controls seemed a tad off. At least to me, anyway.

rockman_x_2002 Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I liked LBP, but I grew somewhat bored with it because it became a game that, while I don't necessarily dislike, I just couldn't get interested in. I didn't find the game so much difficult as it was slightly unwieldy and abstract. Abstract in the sense that the game really does rely a lot on user customization and creation of content, much more than other platformer games. And I also found the physics to be a little off. As a kindness, I'll describe them as being a bit on the "floaty" side. Gravity just seems to have much less of an effect in the game than one would normally expect, and this has caused me to over- or under-jump on a number of occasions. Things like that have slowed me down in progressing in the game and I moved on to other titles as a result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
