Forums - Sony Discussion - LBP loses multiplayer!

nitekrawler1285 on 19 August 2009

Someone please tell me this isn't true.  I can't say that I know i'm going to purchase this game anymore.  Multiplayer means a lot and if games like Resistance can offer online and adhoc multiplayer I don't see why LBP can't.

Multiplayer makes the game! I'm not sure if I'll be buying after this. The ps3 version is my favorite game this gen, but the multiplayer is a large reason for that.

Please make your thread again with a better thread title (aka make sure you say Little Big Planet PSP).

Highlighted the important parts from the forum rules below:

Thread titles must be work safe, descriptive and on topic. Keep the language in thread titles clean. We don't restrict language usage in posts (up to a point), but thread titles are a different matter. Whatever luridly foul things you wish to say about Luigi, you can find a work safe euphemism for the title. Also, letter substitution fools nobody, but strings of unpronounceable symbols are acceptable. Now for the descriptive and on topic bit. It's very simple - use the thread title to sum up or describe what you are saying in your post. Do not use the title as a deceptive hook to lure people in. Do not post something useless like "How do I..." and have the question in the post. Use a game's full name rather than just a abbreviation of it. Starcraft instead of SC. Star Control 2 instead of SC2. Soul Caliber 3 instead of SC3. SimCity 4 instead of SC4. Abbreviations mean different things to different people, so Be Specific. Also, be careful about using the word "official" or "perpetual." Do not simply declare your thread official by fiat. Threads are only "official" or "perpetual" if management says so. In a decision between two threads on the same topic, the thread with the most clear thread title will take priority over the thread with a more obscure topic, even if the latter is posted first.

I can't say whether I want the game anymore, multiplayer was a huge plus in LBP for me (although only really local multiplayer)...

I concur.  It really saddens me. I wouldn't even believe they would take it out in the first place. Maybe they need to try more optimization.  As it stands without a FREE multiplayer patch I really think i'm gonna let this one pass.  Never mind any of my previous predictions for the game.  They were built on false assumptions.

it's the PSP version sadly =(
it was kinda obvious, graphical quality of resistance multiplayer isn't impressive though.
and it doesn't require the physics system LBP have.
