Regular LittleBigPlanet players will have noticed that the game was patched to version 1.20 over the last couple of days – that one’s not the interesting one with most authorities on the game citing future DLC as the reason for the update.  No, it’s what’s next that’s the good stuff: version 1.21 is the fabled ‘Leerdammer’ patch, which is rumoured to unlock the much anticipated Online Create mode.

Hopefully then, within a few weeks, the guys at Media Molecule (along with everyone beta testing it) will have cracked the troublesome mode (which was, you’ll remember, meant to be part of the game at launch) and we’ll be able to work together in creating.  There’s no date locked in for this yet, but let’s hope the Guildford based developers have got this one nailed before releasing it on the general public.

  1. I can’t Create anyway. I am so terrible at it that I would just annoy the people I am Creating with.


    • keep trying and you’ll get better – half the fun in LBP is making stuff :)


      • Can someone please explain why multiple offline players can create a level together but not multiple online players, or both mixed?
        If the answer’s lag, don’t reply, if it is lag and some other reasons along with it, plzzz tell me = S


      • lazilyness


  2. I tried to create something and failed miserably. What worse is when you play a really good user level and then at the end it says: “Made by Billy. Aged 6.” WTF!!!! XD


  3. I may just return to LBP for this…


  4. It usually takes me around 3 1/2 hours to create a simple contraption that falls to bits anyway when i unpause the screen. :( Though it’s great to hear also that MM are increasing the users profile limit, as it’s a giant pain in the arse having to keep deleting stuff cos your profile is full. I ended up having to create my own online storage level to get round it……..although it was annoying to have to keep playing the storage level to collect stuff i needed.


  5. This game is starting to get a little..repitive. Mm needs something really new and fresh to keep people playing in my opion. Online create is something that would seem to agravate peopl more than anything :D


    • Repetitive?! why is this so problematical?


    • LBP isnt repetitive! Have you checked out how many user created levels there are? Theres trillions!


  6. This is great news. One of my favourite PS3 titles is going to get a mode that make it’s community even stronger and further boost the brilliant lifespan this game offers to people with at least a hint of creativity and percerverence. :)


  7. Weeks? argh I’m really getting sick of this game it should’ve been delayed till this day for crying out loud!!! whats wrong with right now? give it to the people that bought it in December to hell with the newbs!!


  8. It drives me mad enough creating with a 2nd player in the room, let alone over the web. Methinks this’ll be a largely unused feature.


    • I agree with you regarding offline creating. It’s fun to just toss about with another player but for serious creating, its annoying having someone else there.
      Having said that, the main annoyance with local co-creation is that you have to share the screen. With online, someone could be off the other end of the level doing some bits while you are working on your stuff, that might actually work rather well


      • It won’t I have a guy on my friends list that would benefit with this feature


  9. While i dislike platforming staples as much as anyone, I feel it might be fun to include some kind of ice/snow element to LBP.

    Slip sliding around would add another layer to the building element of the game and bring different backgrounds.

    OK, I admit, I love snow :/


    • just use glass and put white stickers on it, or maybe even some foreground decoration :)


      • Aha! Thankyou, Whilst having a fairly strong imagination, I seem to have no level creation skills at all.


  10. who has time to create a level anyway?! i want a 2nd campaign a lot more


  11. Leerdammer is a Cheese in my country ;) So I hope it make me smile when 1.21 is installed..


    • Still no cheese slices patch :(


  12. i need to up my game at this


  13. Good new for those who enjoy creating which of one I am not.
    More MM created levels is what I want, something along the line of the MGS Pack added earlier this year, GOW Pack should be next I think


  14. I really must get around to playing this game sometime. It’s been sitting on my shelf (gathering dust) for ages as I picked it up when I saw it going cheap.

    Trouble is, there’s too many other games that I’m into at the moment!! ;)
