Little Big Planet - Gen. Discussion & Info

Played the Collector boss final battle for a little over an hour this morning trying to ace it. I finally aced it and got excited and ran ahead of the guy. Got too far ahead and couldn't figure out what happened. So I started jumping around and accidentally killed myself behind the black mask. Once I respawned I walked back and saw that the guy was still waiting, because I left him behind. I about cried myself back to sleep.

Got the two aceable minigames in the Wilderness and the Bunker left to ace.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']what do you get for acing the collector boss?[/quote]

I believe it's a yellow box head. IIRC.

I took me about 30 minutes to ace The Collector level, Once you figure out the pattern it's cake really. Now im working on the other Aces. If only I had the same luck :(
 
I need like three aces left. I think the hardest will be the stage where you have to
free the LBP characters from the cages
. Beating The Collector wasn't bad, since his pattern is easily noticeable. Worst part was beating him and rushing forward, which got me killed (like cartman mentioned). :lol: Thankfully, I aced it the very next time.

I was pretty sure I finished all the tutorials, but I didn't get the trophy? Outside of the tutorial button in the Popit, is there somewhere else I have to go to play tutorials? That button is no longer in the Popit, which I thought meant I was done with all of them.

EDIT: I only had needed two aces, and I got them shortly after posting. (Yay.)

any items with a question mark on them most likely have a video or a tutorial. after all the main tutorials there are still a few left.

And by a few he means about a 8-12.

Dont forget to download your LBP costumes from the store this week. Might want to update the OP title with that.

You don't have to watch the videos to get the trophy. I have the trophy and still get asked to watch videos from time to time.
 
Anybody up for trying to get 100% on some levels? I want 100 and ace but im also looking for alot of the costume stuff as well. Just send a FR to my PSN name. be on in like 10 mins to play
 
[quote name='fuss']Are the Nariko codes sharable?[/quote]
Not the codes themselves, but you can share the Costume via the Gamesharing method.

Codes are only redeemable on one console.

Yeah Im up for 100%, Im aced and 100% for the first couple worlds
 
Aced everything and got the "Play" trophy. Holy hell was "The Bunker" from the Wilderness world hard. I played it for about 30 minutes a session for two full sessions. Then when I sat down the third time I did it the 2nd try.

Question: I played someone's Batman level that was pretty cool. They used actual Batman music that I assume is not in the game's music library. If I create a level can I put a music file on the level?
 
Weird, I find that the bunker is much easier to ace than the one before it, forgot the name. The one with the giant spinning platformer part, so annoying; cannot imagine how people do that, I just hate the last part where you have to jump over like 20 lightning rods while it spins pretty fast in the OPPOSITE direction.

And also those fricken long cars on the Wilderness levels, the ones with the spinning lighting rods; are so unpredictable and hard to get past. The gap between the two lightning rods is so small and it doesn't help when its driving back and forward. Any tips would be appreciated.
 
[quote name='Baron O Hell']It is in the new release section instead of the logical add-on section.[/quote]
It's only there for two weeks, so it makes sense to just keep it in New Releases so people don't think it'll be there forever.

I thought that one was the bunker.

Heh. That's the Bunker chief.:D
 
anyone up for some 2,3,4 player stuff?

I need almost everything that takes more then one player to get.

Just add me or pm me your name and i will add you and hopefully sometime get some stuff done.
 
I only need to finish getting the items on the Bunker and Collector's Lair. I'm not sure where the items I need are in the bunker (were there 3 or 4x?), but I need the 4x in the Collector's Lair. If anyone wants to go get them, add me.
 
im tired of getting home, loading up little big planet and getting this error. A problem occurred when attempting to connect to the littlebigplanet servers

What the hell is going on up there at mm

Yeah I get that a lot.
Not sure why??
 
PS3 Online FTL!!!


really I dont even bother taking my PS3 Online cause it gives either an error in game, lag or the Dreaded Update is Needed lol
 
You sometimes get that when the servers are down (they were down for maintenance recently. The ONLY time I had this issue was right when the game came out (because the servers went online), the beta at times, and during the evening the first week the game came out. Right now it's fine.

But let's just say the LBP servers are loaded with people, and even the beta test couldn't prepare for it.

To blame PSN for LBP is not a good idea, because LBP, Warhawk, Resistance 2, and pretty much every PS3 game run on independent servers.

Nah, it's totally Sony's fault and you are lying about it not happening to you.

Better that than paying 50 dollars a year and the whole online going down for days at a time.

yeah, cause that has happened all of once in the last 16 months...

Dude, I have both and believe me, it is $50 well spent. PS3 online needs help. I just set LBP aside and have moved on until it works.
 
If anyone's around I'm up for some multiplayer, I've only gotten the x2 items on one level. Feel free to add me and send a PM to let me know.

Try to get up top and walk against it until the end... there's one spot you can sort of "fall" and be braced by one of the beams on the way down (that way you dont get accidentally get shocked by the hole or the lightning beams. :)

Chibi, if youre still up for that ill log in.
 
I'll be on for a bit if anyone want to add me for some multiplayer to get some of the 2 3 and 4x areas. Be sure if you do friend request on PSN let me know you're from CAG so i can add you, and have your mics ready :)
 
OK....I have a question:

Has anyone else had the narrator's track kind of skip while going back to your pod from the level you were trying to create? I'm curious if it's just my PS3 or my copy of LBP that's giving me trouble. This has been the only instance of THIS occuring, but I also had a skyscraper just show up outta nowhere in the skyline of Liberty City while I was passing by it in GTA IV last night.

I have funny stuff like that happen when my PS3 heats up after a few hours of play. Slowdown, pop-up, skipping, etc. It doesn't happen often, but when my "man-room" is hot, the PS3 usually heats up pretty quick.
 
not sure where to post this, didnt want to make a thread and im sure ya'll have heard this and are getting tired of it already but does anyone have a spare Kratos and/or Nariko code they could give me? im an idiot and didnt pre order the game
 
Rolento, I'm pretty sure there's a 4 player area on the very first India-themed stage. Can't remember the name of it though.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']I still need to do some 4 player stuff... anyone have a list of all the 4 and3 player required levels in story?[/quote]
I'll go through that stuff with you. I think I've done a couple of them already, but I know I still have to do the 4x in Collector's Lair.

The only 4x I've done was in one of the Magician levels (either 1st or 3rd), and the tundra level. If there are any in The Bunker, I need that one. So, there should be only 4 levels with 4x parts.

Ah, good idea I'll try that when I get home.

I have 100% on everything and just need to ace like 2 more levels. But i'll help anyone that needs it.

Also, I'm almost finished with my level... it is giving me such a headache, gonna be a relief to finally finish; I hope it gets well accepted. Spent a lot of time on it.

If you click on your planet (on the left side of the screen), you should be able to find a list of your friends. It will show you who is playing- and allow you to join them or invite them to your game.

I need a little level design advice.

My friend and I are making a level, and we want to have a part with a spiked wall chasing you. We've also built a little obstacle course out of dissolve material with magnetic switches on every piece, and a magnetic key switch on the spiked wall so that the obstacle course gets out of the way of the wall. Otherwise, the wall gets destroyed.

We're having a problem with getting the wall to move just as you get to that section. We tried the sensor switch, but we're having trouble getting that to work. We currently have it being moved by a piston, but we may need to make it a wheel or rocket as made the hallway it's in twice as long as the maximum piston length.

Also, the secondary problem that I have to worry about is that this part if a one shot part. If you fail, the obstacle course will be gone. I'm not going to worry about that though until we get it working in the first place.
