its not that bad but it is an issue but there has been a massive increase on online use as of late so Sony has a ton of server upgrades to do

 

It's not that bad?  I beg to differ.  I agree 100% with the first post..I have every single one of those problems - the only online boards that work well are ones where there isn't really a level to move through and the screen doesn't move a whole lot.

It's next to impossible to play online..and when you do, as he said, theres tons of lag.

I have no doubt they'll eventually fix these issues..but they are *MAJOR* issues right now.  All the hype behind this game, they need to get on the ball and get these problems fixed.

What I have going for me is that I have people to play with IRL so online multiplayer isn't too important..but it's still something I'd like to be able to do when I want to..and as of now, pretty much, I can't when I want to.

I have a T1 one and no lag whatsoever. I think it may be due to slow connections by some of you ( 512k is extremely slow in this day and age)

I find it astounding that a game that is primarily based around its online features doesn't have enough infrastructure to support it. This is with mediocre sales too, imagine how bad it would be if it really was HUGE as everyone said it would be.

 

 You wont last long here.

OP: That's too bad about the lag. I havent gotten the game yet. If I did I wouldn't have anyone to play with though... (online that is. Maybe I could on the couch)

 

^^the game has a quick game option that matches you up with ramdom players so you dont need to have psn freinds to play with others.

If the game needs 100MB/s then you have been of very much help to my statement that the has HUGE lag, you see, broadband average around 512kbps and are saying you have 100,000 kbps, that internet subcription could cost around UD$800.00 per month, so if that is what is needed to play LBP smoothly the game will flop sooooooo haaaard. 

I have been really sorprise be this online issue after sony talking so much about the community aspect of the game, i spectect the online to be flawless. Some are saying it will be resolved but with a game that depends on user created content like never before( the history levels last 6-7 hours) there is no excuse for this.

Ill quote a guy from the PS underground that gave the best reason to be angry about this issues:

" Hard to jusitfy spending $60 for a game you may enjoy a mere 10% on the time"

 

the problem is the fact that users have only 512k internet speeds. That is to slow for today's internet. I have a 20mbps which is perfect. If everyone had at least 7mbps things would be great. Hopefully with the digital switch everyone who has a 512k connection is forced to upgrade or cities start installing wan connections.

 

Oh but there is a fiber optic server that i could suscribe to AND PAY US$ 1000.00 PER MONTH. Dont you see that justifying this is like trying to justify crysis, is like saying the game plays well on a Nvidia GeForce GTX 280

I have a 10 meg cable internet conection and LBP still lagged like mad when I was playing it. I dont think it is just limited to bandwidth...

lol, that connection is a bit overkill. All you need is Bright House's basic 7mbps internet speed. I can justify Crysis, I'm using an old fassion Athlon 4600+ X2 and an 9600GT and can run it. Dont need a computer worth more then $700 ro run it.

Connecting is touch and go sometimes, but I've played with Darth through the story, and online in user levels and it's fine.
