Split Screen

Archive: 6 posts


It would be cool to have split screen w/ over the shoulder view for offline play.

What do you think?

Over the shoulder? So it's pretty much 3D? I dunno...

I thought of a good way to fix the camera in multiplayer (online) though... basically every person has their own camera, it's not shared, it doesn't zoom out if people get too far apart from each other. Just imagine like the Create-mode camera w/multiple people, but for play mode.

Yeah there is an over the shoulder view in 1 of the pictures (look in the official LBP2 announcement thread I think).2010-05-11 12:00:00

I REALLY hope this is the case. Imagine the co-op and even player-vs-player opportunities for levels if we could just get everyone onto their own screens. Which of course would necessitate a split screen option for local play... hmm...

as for the over-the-shoulder option, if that really is truly a real camera option in the final game - and we know it's been seen so far in LBP2, but we have no confirmation of what its final place will be... but if it is a final option, you can almost be assured that split screen will be supported.

I sure hope so at least.

And again I'm crossing my fingers for multiple level entrances. It would be very cool if Player 1 spawns in entrance A and player 2 spawns in entrance B.

I think you're referring to a cutscene angle, which is different from the gameplay camera options. I don't think we've seen any real over-the-shoulder angles during play, but apparently it has been seen specifically in the caterpillar segment.

Splitscreen would be pretty awesome, maybe they'll make it an option? Like the level maker choses if it's ok to let them seperate or if they need to be togethor?2010-05-11 17:18:00

I hope they add Splitscreen, it would fix up Local Create, and expand the creation possibilities! I currently have an idea in mind though if split-screen isn't implemented, I'm hoping there might be some sort of moddable camera tool I could manipulate, using a complex method I might be able to trick the game into splitting the screen, but I am assuming this all at the moment.2010-05-18 15:12:00
