I think ice was taken out...

Archive: 43 posts


It's okay because it's replaced by glass, which is basically ice. It even looks like ice.

If you look in the danger tools menu, it's not there. Oh well

It's not really that useful anyways. Maybe you have to unlock it or something. Idunno.2008-09-13 03:24:00

ice can kill you...

being a block of ice makes you slide... but it kills you

I think there was a problem with that or something, because ice has disappeared off the face of CraftEarth.

I'm pretty sure they're keeping ice, they've shown it a lot. If not, meh.2008-09-13 03:56:00

Why would they get rid of it? It didn't seem to have any problems when I saw it.

Plus there is an icy level background that I have seen.

Yeah, but they used glass for ice.

They didn't remove ice or at least no credible source has said it that I have seen plus the ice element wasn't for sliding really as it was to turn your sackboy into a cube of ice. it was a elemental attack on objects.

Glass has always been in the game and that is what you use to slide on. adding a ice element is like adding fire staying on it to long you die.

Hey guys - that's ice, not glass. I know it doesn't look like it, but you see when he falls? He touches the ice and dies. Glass wouldn't kill him. They haven't taken anything out.2008-09-13 12:46:00

bbroman they actually said that it was half and half in one of the videos of that level. the first part is glass then after the drop it is ice you can tell the difference by the steam and how he dies like you said.2008-09-13 12:49:00

I thought he died because he was crushed...

I highly doubt that they removed ice, that would have been plain stupid, and a totally useless move.

There's no logical reason to have done so.

WTF?

They've changed the way you react to ice.

Before you just freezed into an ice-cube, and didn't die.
Now you just die straight away.
I guess it was because it wasn't very dangerous before.

I really doubt they'd take out something that was working perfectly, useful and fun to use.
Also, not telling us about it after making a full review of elements >_>

Umm.. I don't know how you could think that he died from touching the ice in this video, because he was obviously crushed by the thing he slided on. Seriously, MM would never just let you die like that from ice without any "ice-like" animation, just look at how you die from fire. And you can even hear that he is crushed from the sound effect..
Also as far as I have seen it, ice is an enhancement (just like fire..) and not an actual material. So they used glass because it's slippery and didn't use ice, because they didn't want you to freeze or maybe it wasn't even unlocked.
The reason that ice wasn't in the menu was probably because it either wasn't unlocked or it just wasn't in that part of the demo..
I don't remember them ever showing ice in any other video than the one that introduced elements, but it seemed to work really well and I think Alex even said it was his favorite element. Fire seems like more of a challenge to put in the game to me than ice so I don't see any reason why they would take it out now, and I doubt they will.

Thanks Shiwayari, I was about to go off like that myself. I'm sorry but it is a bit ridiculous to go off stating things like this because of one DEMO video. I'm not a fan of unfounded speculation which unfortunately promotes pointless debate. I'm not going to repeat what Shiwayari said, it basically covers it all. Please be careful to at least check up on what you post before you put it up here. Thanks

Guys, he died because he was cruched. the sled landed on top of him, you don't die instantly from touching ice, and as far as we all know, Ice is still a part of lbp. It hasn't been replaced, just given an alternative.2008-09-13 19:09:00

Aha, so I was right.

Why does it always feel like noone actually reads the thread? I kind of already said that he was crushed. Are long posts bad?

Also.. I think glass is not an alternative, but something completely different. Like everyone probably knows ice is an enhancement and once it is applied to an object, that object can freeze you, but it was never mentioned if that object will then become slippery too. So glass is needed as a slippery material and ice is a danger that can freeze sackboy and turn him into a slippery block of ice.
The iced object may be slippery too, but it was never said or shown.

Yes.

lol, ok joke over. Yeah I didn't see your post sorry, or I was just too lazy.

Also you posted it but Maltay also gave a valid point, making it more believe able....

Ok, I was just too lazy to read your long post, lulz.

He got squished under the sled. Didn't you hear the splatting noise?

Shame, I thought the idea of ice was a good one, especially when you turn into a block of ice and can slide around.

Ah well.

P.S. (I'm like 98% sure) he dies because he is splattered.

They wouldn't have taken it out without saying anything. And Ice has different properties to glass.

Glass isn't a danger, where ice is.

Sackboy slides on glass, while he becomes an ice cube / dies on contatct with ice.

I'm pretty sure they added glass so they had something with the properties of ice, without the dangers they've added to it.

I'd put my money on it's still in the game. With this thread being the only 'report' i've seen of no ice in the game, i'm 99.9999% sure it'll be in.2008-09-14 22:16:00

It's not in the latest build. I've taken close looks at the Dangers section, and there's only Fire, Electricity, Horrible Gas, and the Remove Danger Tool.2008-09-14 22:51:00

Maybe it wasn't in the build you saw. Anywho we'll find out soon enough.

Can you please link to videos/pics?

Ice behaves very differently to fire and electricty; it's slightly possible ice is a material and so isn't in the dangers section (even though that doesn't make much logical sense)

Maybe they made it so it doesnt kill you if your an ice cube for too long? that way it wouldn't be a danger. I'd actually prefer that.
Then again maybe it is out.

The manual says:

In Create mode, open the Popit Menu
and select the Tools Bag icon. Choose
the Tools page and press the S button
to select one of the Danger Tools
(electricity, fire, gas and so on). Use
the left stick to move around the scene
and press theS button to apply the
hazardous element to your object.

that may be true because it doesnt actually kill u it just freezes u for a certain time. at least that is what i saw in a video.

Lol.

Not true. You look at videos recorded by people who are playing it, like PAX or whatever & I'm certain you'll see more than one video using it. I've seen tons.
