[quote name='io']Blah, I'm down to 3 levels left to Ace and just like LBP 1 I think I may never get it done. I just get really frustrated playing the same thing over and over and over.
They are all on the last world. I think it is the 2nd, 3rd, and of course the boss battle. I had no problem with the first one and the shooter level in that world.
One of those earlier ones doesn't have any particular hard part in it, but it is so damn long (2 linked levels) that I invariably would just die somewhere - pretty much in a different spot each time. That is the one with the sackbots the follow you and shoot the purple alien thingies.
And I made a run at the last level and of course the first part is stupid easy, but I invariably get stuck swinging on the moving platforms right near the mouth with the bounce pads all the way at the other end and have no choice but to fall into the electricity at the bottom (or get eaten). If I can just get through that part I think I can do it. It is just so boring to play them over and over and I risk having what happened to me on the first game - getting frustrated and upset with it and never playing it much afterwards.
So I took a break and went through some of the tutorials. My son is bugging me on how to make a top down vertical racer or shooter. I have no idea how and looking through communitry levels, even the ones that are "Mm Picks" are for the most part utter crap compared to the story levels. It is really frustrating when they are labelled "LBP 2" levels (even in the title) and they have nothing new in them (just stuff that could have been done before).[/QUOTE]
That was the thing that was most annoying to me about the original as well, but I have the GOTY one now from AWD so I'll probably try and go through that after I finish this game.
Which 'world' are you on? I'm on the fourth one or so right now. The one right after your training levels, where you have to used the Rabbot or whatever. I missed a bunch of prize bubbles in those cuz I didn't use the target bots to give myself a bit more height before jumping up.
I haven't even gone into the user created levels yet. How many 'LMAO Durr RROD Failbox 360' ones are there? I know there were a ton in the original LBP's community.
