I don't agree that the multiplayer stuff is expected. It should be that if someone is lagging behind too far then they go off the screen, then just like in LittleBigPlanet, if they don't get back on screen in time that means "Oh well, you dead now".

That way everyone else can carry on. It is no fun hitting a wall in progression because someone else is too slow. If this game was online it would be a nightmare. All it would take is one person leaving for a bathroom break to frustrate everyone else with stationary gameplay for minutes at a time.

Very bad in my opinion. Could have easily been avoided.

Weaker players can choose to engulf themselves in bubbles to be pulled along by stronger players

It works okay if the weakest player isn't a bit of a jerk... I assume

I would enjoy more to pick them up and toss them off screen while my other 3 buddies are running the other way.

Much better than carrying their useless behind through the stage.

 

I may sound like a jerk, but if someone can't beat a stage and will need me to carry them the whole way, it is better to just not join my game with me.

  What if its a friend, family, significant other, you're playing with?

My girlfriend gets frustrated at me if I hold up gameplay as well, so it's all fair. I would leave her behind.
