Multiplayer Thoughts

Have any beta users tested the limitations on multiplayer capability within LBP 2?

I have read that there will be no split screen multiplayer support, but there will be multiplayer online.
how does this work in relation to the use of camera's?
Can the view of each player be manipulated seperately? Is it possible to assign (using logic) a seperate camera view to each player?
Is it possible to have a HUD display only on the respective players screen. So that each player see's only their HUD. (i have seen hologram material HUD's but if two player characters were close together then the hologram material would appear on the other players screens. This would result in a potential jumble of HUD's blocking player view)

Thankyou for any help

You dont need logic to make different cameras for different players, just need to change the game type to versus .

Game types are:

Co-op: All players must be on screen at same time or they will die(same as in lbp1) and all score bublles go to a collective score, although at the scoreboard you can still see who got the most

Versus: Players can be off screen from each other, and automatically spawn from random points without any prompt from the creator(although i dont yet know how to assign each player their own checkpoint) At the scoreboard there is a competitive scoring screen showing who wins very clearly

Cut-Scene: Disables all players controllers and makes the screen into widescreen format

Question about Versus:
Can you use Game Cameras for each player?
I remember reading somewhere that if you use a Game Camera it will force all players to use it instead of one.

You mean add letterbox since your screen is already wide or else you using 4:3 TV

Game cameras yes, cinematic cameras no
