Hey MM, we're waiting for a big gift

Archive: 39 posts


I'm just checking the Moon in LBP and we have 2930039 levels published, and the uploading don't end, just 620 levels published in less than 2 hours since my last check, so I think that we will reach the 3 Millions quota by the end of the first week of September.

So what I mean is that I expect a big FREE surprise for the Community!
Start to think about it MM guys!

Sack Yeah!

Forcing those of us addicted to this game to buy your overpriced costume packs - re-releasing previous years holiday costumes because you can't be bothered creating anything new.

Long term playsres, like myself, who bought the game at launch... and have continued to support the game by purchasing your overpriced content.... NEED some kind of affirmation of MM's affection.

They'd better be cooking up somekind of '3 million levels published give-away' - and not just an RSS from Spaff with some post-it-note doodles on it

When you think about it, how many of these near 3million levels are actually good?
Maybe they should gift us if when we reach 10million levels, you know, when we might have at least 3million 'Good' ones? (Maybe more, maybe less then 3mil?)

But still, I guess to have 1mil + decent to good 'Mind-blowing'ly good levels published is pretty good anyway you'd look at it, the extra 2mil are just useless filler.

But still, it would me nice to have a reward. Even though they are hard at work perfecting LBP2.

Stuff and things and nonsense

Pft, if you're that bothered about it, stop playing, or stop buying content... But tell me, if you've been playing since launch, how many hours of enjoyment have you got from this game, and how much money have you paid in....?


Yeah, we've totally been ripped off here

rtm is right, Mm don't ow us anything, we buy the content because we want to not because we need to. How have Mm repaid us for buying that content.... well they gave us the ability to have the content in the first place.

Mm never had to and still don't have to give us anything free, we have all got our moneys worth out of this game so I don't care if they give us anything or not.
Yes it would be nice for them to give us something special since it is highly likely we wont get to 4million by the time LBP2 comes out. But I am not thinking about us all I have to say is congratulations to Mm, 1million levels was amazing to get to on such a niche title. 2million Even better. But 3million, Just Wow.

CONGRATULATIONS, YOU ARE THE SUCCESSFUL PUBLISHER OF THE 3,000,000th LEVEL. HEART US AND WE'LL SEND YOU A MASSIVE YACHT!!!

Anyway, with most of the attention on LBP2 at the moment, I doubt anything big will happen to celebrate.

A bunch of stuff

You seem to be under the misconception that I was being serious....that's not like me at all
How can they 'force' me to buy something?!

LOL, while some points are right, like the one that no one force people to buy contents and that not all the 3 millions levels are good, still already 2 Millions were worth MM a page in the Guinness World Record, and I think that even if every player contributed to the success of the game.
So, they do NOT have to give us something, they gave a lot for free, but I think it would be NICE to remember this milestone with a gift.
That's all folks!

It'd also set them apart from the activisions of this world... and show that it isn;t just about the money... it's also about "the community".

And it's the community that makes this game... without the community, it'd just be a platformer with a level designer.

I think to commemorate the 3 million levels we should get a free Impact Explosive costume for Sackboy. 2010-08-12 14:36:00

Guys let's all publish a level with an opening checkpoint and a scoreboard and we can reach 4 million levels and get 2 giant yaughts!

Yeah, it's good to see the community is still going strong for LBP, even if most of the levels aren't the best of the best (to be fair, most of them are just inexperienced, as opposed to bad for the sake of H4H).

And without the incredibly well designed and open-ended create tools, the community would be nothing

But what would the design tools be without the community to use them?


I think we're in a chicken & egg situation here

(The answer is the egg came first - but it wasn't a chicken that laid it)


But 3 million levels is still a milestone, and it'd be nice if they commemorated it in some way.

How about a free "3 Million Levels" sticker?
Surely they could knock that up in an hour or two

I don't think that will ever be the case for a few more years to come. Also if you were to quit, another few hundred people would join, so yeah, the community will never die, until LBP 7 on the PS5 is released in the year 2021.

Yeah, I'm sure we'll get something like what we got on the highly celebrated 1Million levels!
...
Oh wait what?
There was nothing?
Well, then....why'd you expect something to happen now....?

Oh right right, of course how foolish of me tho think otherwise...

But really dude, if the game starts spewing 2M levels per year (shaddap! not necessarily 2M, that's just a mere "example..." sheesh. ) celebrating every million isn't so..."incredible and awesom" i guesss, anymore.

Like he said, maybe every 10M of 50M, yeah, that's a big deal, but 1M every few months, with 500K being crap-levels and spammer's, is it really worth celebrating...?

Dude, RTM, just said you were being serious, so you WERE being serious, doesn't matter if everyone knew you were joking, if he says you're serious, you ARE serious.

You see, RTM's kinda like the Mythbusters, he'll take your reality, and replaces it with his own.

Just LOL at the monster I've spawned!
Can't believe that there would be all this madness for a silly thing.
I just saw Spaff around and decided to joke, but someone has taken things too seriously. XD

Who would have thought that bad trophy design that led to level spamming would lead us to 3 millions under 2 years?

we all deserve ponies since we worked so hard to get to 3M of course of those 3M only 2 are mine and dare i say 90% of them contain the words Jump, Free, Shark, and Colour and only take anywhere from 10 seconds to 30 mins to make, not to mention over 10,000 are spat out over night but they should still feel obligated to reward me for not stopping them right?



I think Mm is doing well over enough and we have been rewarded enough already

They should give them to non h4hers. 1/3 of lbp is h4h. = 2 million - 1.250 million boring levels = 750,000 good levels.2010-08-13 10:28:00

We've all gotten thousands of hours of enjoyment from this game. Also, we do buy DLC now and then but it's such a small amount to pay. I think the game has saved us money since we like spending our time playing it and not going out and blowing money.

Have you actually tallied up the combined cost of all the DLC?

You honestly consider that a "small amount" - when compared to the cost of the game itself?

but you pay it in drips and drabs so you don't notice. What is DLC generally, ?3 or something? I throw that sort of money away on a daily basis on bits and pieces on a whim.... buying a bit of DLC every couple of weeks or so makes no odds to me. At the weekends I regularly throw more money away on having a good time than I've spent on all the LBP DLC I've bought over the last 18 months.

So yeah, I don't see it as significant If I did, I'd make do without it.

So the answer is "No" you haven't tallied up the combined cost.
?3 here - ?5 there - over 18 months - quickly adds up to a fair old amount.

I haven't tallied it up either... I dread to think what I've actually spent on it... and I never even use half the stuff - or at least - haven't had use for it so far.

Take the latest Marvel DLC - I'm not even that interested in it - but I know I'm going to end up buying it and then get the buyers remorse.

Ah well... at least I'll be able to use it all in LBP2 aswell

Don't mind me... I just like to moan


I bet Mark Healy/Alex Evans etc could afford to give away a few MASSIVE YAUGHTS now

But the thing is I can spend ?10 on a Saturday night ordering pizza, if I dont order pizza one week and instead buy some DLC am I going to feel ripped off... No!
The fact is that you spend a lot of money on anything you buy, so buying DLC isn't that bad. I get more enjoyment out of an LBP pack than I do a pizza, but I still buy pizza, and I still buy DLC.
