Fire Rider

Archive: 5 posts


A fairly short level with a boss fight in the middle, sandwiched between two different Fire Riders. The boss fight requires shooting rubber band balls out of the Creatinator in order to kill it. Play to the end for a not so explosive finish!

I'm sorry mate, but it's just not that good. I mean first off it's really short, and it looks bad. And exploding my and the 'rider' to stop it? Ummm, why exactly? I mean It seems like you're probably new here or something and I feel really bad because I know I'm gonna sound harsh, but I just had 0 fun while playing it... Sorry :/2011-01-23 17:32:00

No, it's fine, I was expecting people to sound a little harsh.

I know it's really short, I did say it was fairly short, didn't I? And exploding the Fire Rider 2.0? Yeah, I'll admit, it was a stupid idea, later today I'm going to change that along with some things with the 'boss'.

Now you say it looks bad, but could you please elaborate on that? I know, personally, it looks bad, but from my subjective point of view I just can't bring myself to specify something that looks bad.

Well it's been a little while since I played, but if I remember right the rider was just made out of dissolve material? You could change that up to make it look nicer by using real materials and what now, and if you want it to disappear then you can connect a destory switch to it and a tag sensor, and put a tag where you want it to dissolve. If I remember right you also just start at like the open like create mode start area, which lots of people frown upon unless it's done 'nicely', and where the boss was... just a metal structure floating there? really? could you not make it like a building or something? Add some stickers or decorations or something you know?

And the boss battle, I've not yet played around with the createnator but I assume it has a speed tweaking for emitted objects, you might want to make the rubber balls shoot out faster so they actually go where you're pointing instead of going a little bit and then falling to be subjected to gravity.

You know?

Would you mind playing a level of mine? The Bird Hunting one? I'd love feed back on that.

(I tried not to be too harsh... But yeah :/)

Ah yes, I originally made the Fire Rider in LBP1, and the level I put it in was similar, where you ride it until hitting a wall (though the player could pass under the wall), and the rider dissolves. I didn't change it because I thought it wouldn't matter, but yeah, I should probably change it.

Why exactly do people frown upon starting where create mode starts? (not that I find offense in that, I'm just wondering)

The metal structure floating there. Yeah, when I was making this level I just went about randomly, but now that people are playing it, and I'm playing it more, I can tell that I need to make it look a lot better. And the stickers and decorations? Yeah, I never use those for some reason, even though I should. >.>

Yeah, not long ago I edited the Creatinator to shoot the rubber balls out faster, but as it was getting late, I didn't work on anything else. I don't know about tomorrow either, cause of college. But I'll try to work on it as much as I can.
