Sackbots can't go in water though.

I thought I'd crush any of those dreams right now.

They can in the beta too, if a Sackbot is set to be able to use the Creatinator they can also use the Paintinator.

Im not sure if anybody noticed, but there is a scene where sackboy is spraying water at the sackbots. New Tool! Fire Extinguisher.2010-10-29 22:55:00

Yes, they can do normally. It's a projectile like fire or plasma, but rather an orb of water. (It disappears on impact.)

The thing I noticed is that a sackbot had a paintinator, which I don't think was possible in the beta.

He means that's always been the new date...
Leather thought they changed the new date to another newer date, which they didn't, so rez was just telling him they hadn't changed the new date to something else since the change to January.

Actually I felt that this trailer lacked a bit of spice.
The other ones had better direction, cut and montage.
It's long, a bit dispersive and doesn't show the real potential and how many things you can do with sackbots, like actually programming them and give them a sort of AI.

Best thing is the confirmation of the release date.

I guess none of the costume freaks showed up yet? looks like a new animated skin @ :45 seconds in.

I'm pretty sure that's a workaround/cheat. Likely set that the players are controlling sackbots set to copy their costumes and those sackbots are miniaturized. Then the other sackbots are made to be larger. I've been trying to do this but can't seem to place a DCS on the sackbots chest for some reason in the beta.

They disabled placing DCS to a sackbot. Will be in the full game, I heard it on the private forum.

Well that would explain it then. I've even tried attaching the DCS to a piece of material with a follower and tags but that was a fail too.

I don't put much faith into rumors, but if what you've heard is true then that's good news indeed! Thanks for the info... regardless of whether it turns out to be true or not.

I love the professor glasses and labcoat.

You know what I'm excited about? Using the girl costumes. Being a guy, my sack boy is not partial to dresses. But now with NPC sackbots I can use all the cool girl costume parts too.

Looks like your getting fan support

I really hope you can attach a DCS to a SackBot, I really wanted that.

Tom_Molecule "The method shown in the trailer (sticking a controlinator directly on a sackbot) currently can't be done."

Yep rumor for sure.. Looks like it's in the full game.

A method that would work would be if you put a square of hologram material (set to 0% brightness) infront of the sackbot, on the hologram would be a controliantor with a follower in it set to follow a key on the sackbot. Simple.

I wish he had elaborated a bit and spilled the beans with saying "but you will be able to do this in the games final release... we just removed it from the beta.", or something similar. Oh well, guess we'll know for sure in a few months.

As for your suggestion, that's what I was playing with. I realized though that because the holo material isn't actually attached to the sackbot that the DCS wouldn't turn with the sackbot from side to side and facing front, which you'd need to have happen to sell the illusion of it being attached. Close, but no cigar.

Also, thanks, you got me my 70th Thanks, which gave me a Basic Profile Upgrade! Shame I already bought the best one available from the store.

Also, are the other featurettes already out? I wouldn't know where to find them if they were, but I quite like them.

Sackbots will be cool the first few months.... Then after that then it will be tediuosly overused just as the bomb survivals : (2010-11-07 17:17:00

You seem to me like a Little Big Economist telling everyone that the worst will happen, Didn't you hear of the Power of positive thinking?
We can't just give up on sackbots, We have to fight for them.
In Little Big Planet it reminds me of an underground bunker where people relay on word of mouth and sites like this to bring them good levels. Outside is a never ending universe of copied and rubbish levels. Why don't we leave our bunker and teach everyone outside how to properly use sackbots and make awsome levels?

Well... there's always MNR for you I guess. On the bright side... now that you know sackbots are going to be over used, you can save your money and not bother buying LBP2 at all and save yourself the grief.

But we can at least take solace in the fact that your incessant trolling will be more tedious than any of the inevitable trends that will come about in LBP2

I believe I made you an offer a while back - when the game is released, we shall take the most awesome thing I can create with sackbots and the LBP2 tools and then you can put your (metaphorical) money where your (metaphorical) mouth is and demonstrate to us all that the LBP1 tools are enough to accurately recreate it.

That offer still stands

For anyone wondering, that white animated skin was somehow captured by some glitchers in the beta, as well as a couple other cool costume pieces.
The whole thing glows in the dark. It's nice.

It's the one in the trailer during the "Make the Flee" bit.
They have white striped animated skin and computer heads.
Unfortunately, the levels been moderated, but I still have all the costumes. There was a big Renaissance headress, an umbrella, a couple different female hair styles, another winter cap without a little ball on the top, and some animated dresses and boots.
All really cool.
