Ok, as I live in Aussie I have not played the game yet. So this is my grandest idea and I want confirmation on a few things throughout as to if they are possible or a dream. So the level will begin in a tank thing. My plans for the tank are that it will have a four wheel kinda of caterpillar thing going on with springs and pistons for suspension, making it kinda all terrain. It will be 2 leveled, the bottom having a switch to accelerate and reverse. The top having a switch to rotate the turret both ways and one to fire it. First question, is that even going to be possible? This first part will involve blowing your way through destructible mini forts while being barraged with explodie things that can eventually hit the tanks brain and effectively make you lose. After this, a switch will make a hatch open and let sackboy leave. This next short part will begin the true story. Private Sackboy will be told that he has broken through the enemy lines into their fortress and that he is to hunt General E Deadly. G.E.D will appear multiple times out of your reach through this short platform style area with lots of electricity and fast moving metallic traps and onto my second question. I want to make burst fire turret things. My idea is to have a spinning wheel with 3 prongs close together that will hit a button that fires a bullet. Will that work? So after you complete that part you will fall into the underground section where G.E.D will get into his giant robot wheel thingy which is luckily confined behind a wall. A boss battle ensues (haven't decided fine details but you won't hit the boss) After this the wall will be destroyed (Oh no) and a small chase scene ensues. This repeats 3 times until G.E.D escapes and the level ends. There will be many secrets, perhaps including a section of the LBP treasure hunt if I'm accepted. Also a kind of final chapter to the story if you can find it. Would something of this size be possible? I've seen Donkey Snow's amazing levels, but would the probably quite technically demanding with all the difficult objects. It will probably be of massive size too, so will this dream even be possible? Thank you first if you actually read through the whole thing. Even more thanks if you help me.

Sounds intense, but I like it! From the looks of it you have most of the level planned out already, so I'm looking forward to it. Grand designs are the best kind after all.

The tank thing is definitely possible. I've done hundreds like that lol. A tip for the tank - Make a little trianle on a piston, to push debris away.

things cant change planes in hte game so if the turret has a cannon on hte end it would not work ... once something is in one plane there it has to stay .. sadly as if things could change planes there would be a ton more stuff i could do ..

Didnt know about the one plane restriction...tho you are right. Hopefully a DLC pack tweaks this later and lets us create in truly 3D space.

At this point I guess there would be only 1 plane you can actually be in, should alleviate that problem right? Thanks for the comments guiys

HAHAHA, someone finally got it, yes I have, SoaD style but I prefer the more technical speed of thrash. Thrash over all other genres
