Better Search Options

Archive: 10 posts


I find it annoying that when you conduct a search, the results are always in the same order. So if you search for, say, high-rated levels, you always see the same ones first and have to scroll through countless pages.

Perhaps a randomiser feature could be implemented? So I could see pages of random levels matching whatever search attributes I set.

Just an idea. Newer levels always seem to get buried by old ones.

I agree 100% that it would be great to have a new major way to search. At first, I think that everyone was pretty happy about the fact that LBP PSP doesn't have a "Cool Pages" section, since PS3's Cool Pages has always been either broken (featuring the same levels as Highest Rated) or widely abused. I think that the biggest issue with Cool Pages on PS3 is that people can just republish over and over, and since there is no penalty on PS3 for republishing, this will eventually get their level to place on Cool Pages, even if the level absolutely sucks (which most levels on there do since people use this cheat to get their levels notices).

However, on the PSP if you republish your level is treated as a new level entirely, so republishing wouldn't help at all for cool pages. I would love to see how a Cool Pages would end up working on PSP. What I would love even more, though, is to see them implement something completely different that would help levels to be notices.

On a brighter note, you do know that you can search for levels by text, right? So if you just wanted to search for a certain style of level, then you could at least try entering the text and seeing if anything shows up. That sounds kind of the like the randomizer that you mentioned, since you would be entering some text, and then it searches for levels pertaining to that.

The text search is pretty usfeful, yes

I'd like to be able to search with and/or terms... for example, levels not containing the words 'free stuff' or 'untitled', with 4 stars or more, displayed in a random order. And only from creators beginning with 'T'

You get the idea...

I sort of have an idea how the 'cool pages' could work. They could put a new option in the downloaded levels, so after you play through it, you could recommend it. If said level gets enough recommendations, say 50 or 100, then said level would qualify for the 'cool pages'. You could only recommend a level once and only have a certain amount of levels that you could recommend. This would probably stop spamming unless someone bothered to get a million psn accounts and recommend their level a million times. I think mm should just scrap the 'cool pages' because it was a good idea but was mistreated and abused.2010-04-26 20:06:00

I just finally was able to get onto the Community Moon after getting 2.05 (there was a while that at least NA players weren't able to get on... and yes, I am in China, but I use the NA server), and Cool Levels are now a search option!!!2010-04-27 12:53:00
