I know sackbots can be made to look like your sackboy and what not but what if we could make a head out of a material and place it on the 'bot?? Like I could make a cardboard elephant head on my sackbot or maybe a lego harry potter head! I haven't seen anyone suggest this yet, not that I could find anyway so i would appreciate your thoughts on it. Also does anyone know how much thermometer space a sackbot takes up?? Will i be limited to about ten on my level if the level is complex or will I be able to recreate Helm's Deep or the D-Day landing? Well maybe not Helm's Deep....

Also does anyone know how much thermometer space a sackbot takes up?? Will i be limited to about ten on my level if the level is complex or will I be able to recreate Helm's Deep or the D-Day landing? Well maybe not Helm's Deep.... The sackbots space on thermo, is REALLY small! You can place MANY sackbots, until it lags

I was just wondering because in the e3 trailer sackboy walks into a room and the light turns on to reveal loads of weird sackbot characters and i didnt know if they were just ooutfits or what... Anyway I think you should be able to create your own heads/arms/legs etc. cos it would make for some great boss characters. I know this is off the subject but can we upload our own photos into the game and use them as stickers? It would make each level a lot more unique

I know this is off the subject but can we upload our own photos into the game and use them as stickers? It would make each level a lot more unique The weird sackbots you are referring to might have been the Creator Curator Characters http://www.lbpcentral.com:80/forums/showthread.php?37025-Creator-Curator-Pictures&p=640664, but I can't be sure without more specific examples of the trailer. Sackbots can be given (or made to look like) any costume that you can make for your own sackboy. As for uploading your own stickers, yes and no. You can do it if you have a PSEye or EyeToy.... but you'd have to set up your camera to take pics of your artwork or image. It's been done many times actually, on quite a few levels. I've mucked around with it a bit, but you have to get strong lighing on your subject for it to give you a half decent image to use as a sticker. It was originally inteneded for us to be able to upload images from our HD to use as stickers in-game, but Sony had a bad case of EPIC FAIL becasue they thought it would be a problem with regards to copyright infringement. The truth is, you can take a pic of someone elses work with either of the camera's I mentioned... which is why it's a FAIL on their part. Hope this helps.

Could you make a box (hollow - like this ----> [''''] ) out of a light material such as cardboard, put a gyro on it to stop it from flipping over and then drop it onto the sackboys head? Then design it as you please... Maybe even set some kind of material stickiness with an object tweaker? Ooh if that worked you could take off the gyro and then you could aim it with the sixaxis... But yeah, i have no idea, dont have the beta I know that was not really what you were asking in the OP, but hey, possible work around?

Thanks for the replies and ideas, came in very helpful!! I understand why uploading photos might be a copyright problem for Sony and might also cut down sales of MM sticker packs as people could easily post them online and they could be uploaded to the game. Still would have been a nice feature cos I'm sure some peoples personal artwork and photographs could make levels amazing

Has anyone tried bolting anything on Sackbots? For what I've been told by a number of BETA people, the sackbots are more 'sackboy' than 'object.' So you can't glue stuff to it and all that.

You are not a able to bolt a sackbot to a wall but you are able to connect a rod to one.

If you want something attached to sackbots you can also achieve that with followers set to follow a tag and then have that tag on the sackbot

Helm's Deep here we come! Doesn't the thermo go up as you put costume's and add more complex settings on them though? Well, I presume so, but either way, that is very, very cool.

...shouldn't you know? I mean, you're name is Media Molecule. With all those sackbots on screen, you can make a "good" zombie survival challenge.

So yeah... Pretty awesome. Helm's Deep here we come! Wow, are you suggesting LOTR DLC? Reality couldn't handle the awesomeness.

Wow, are you suggesting LOTR DLC? Reality couldn't handle the awesomeness. I was thinking that the other day! But seems as EA own the game rights to LOTR I think it is unlikely too happen!

I can confirm that you can bolt objects to sackbots.

Thanks for the replies I was just wondering how limited the sackbots will be visually and it seems they kind of will be unless I can bolt a new look on one!! I was mainly thinking about creating animals and such out of them. Could someone tell me has the creature brains from lbp 1 been upgraded much?? or will I have to bolt a big and small sackbot together and and try and make them look like a cow!??
