How about brightly coloured nerf guns? Wouldn't that be cute.

I mean, Emperor Zurgs nerf gun thing looked great and seems to have been well recieved. Perhaps more of the same would allow people to still characterise their Sackperson with firearms, without breaking LBPs theme.
Actually, maybe a rotatory-nerf cannon object might be a cool idea, aswell, similar to the Paintinator in some respects. Except it's not a power up, but still comes with it's own activated animation and projectile.

My post isn't too closely tied to the OP, sorry about that. Just a train of thought.



Also, while I'm not in favour of the idea of realistic weaponry for Sackpeople being added, I hardly think it would 'ruin LBP'.

I hope this idea never happens as it goes agaist the very nature of the game,

isn't all the violence in the world alredy enough without polluting innocent lbp?
the paintinator gets away with it because it's not only harmless but paint is creative

finally not all children disobey age ratings... you've got to think of the bigger audience

The paintinator is just fine as a gun. Iv'e been considering making a paintball war level for quite some time. Besides, little big planet already has enough n00bs making "Free Guns" levels. if you want firearms, use a paintball gun.2011-11-26 03:56:00

I can see it now... the DLC pack that ruined LBP...

my immediate thought too. the very mention of guns in isolation on a lbp forum sends shivers up my spine. i'm all or some generic hand positions to enable sackbot to hold shovels, snooker cues or the handlebars of cycles, but in no way could i possibly agree with pandering to that one particular idea. i'm sure the above could be used for said suggestion, but it's best left unsaid because by definition alone, lbp would be shoved unceremoniously in the wrong direction

Yes, because that's a totally great reason to add guns to LBP, because kids play M rated shooter's already.

Isn't that just fanning the fire?
Plus, I couldn't imagine my little partner in crime exploding into a fluffy mess from being shot up.

Saying that there are young children that play CoD isn't really a good argument. There are young children that download adult movies, but this doesn't result in an E rated game getting nudity.

Having said that, different weapons already exist in the game with swords, axes and bows, but they are decrotave. A few more decorative type weapons would be fun.

The creationator is THE projectile weapon though, that bad boy can fire anything you want. You just don't 'hold' it.

More music instruments would be great, as would an Indy style whip.

A 'handle' costume piece (move + navi themed) would be great to allow deco building. But they would stay single grip so if didn't mess with normal gameplay animations.

As for custom objects, considering that most nasty exploits result from people saving costumes with custom objects, I don't see that happening but it would be useful.

There's a way to allow the paintinator to shoot any object desired (no, not the glitch on the cool pages, I conjured this one up) if that's satisfying enough. If it makes you happy, you could even decorate the paintinator (but that looks a bit crummy, so probably not). I agree that realistic guns aren't a great idea, but handheld gameplay items--like you said-- would be a great idea. Say, if you made a baseball level, a baseball bat that could actually hit a ball? Or a spatula that could interact with patties. So then that would widen the types level genres (well, the spatula one would be a bit boring IMO, but you get the idea). Kind of improving or broadening the Sackbot's AI, or maybe even Sackboy's.2011-11-28 16:58:00

Weapons are pretty essential in video games. A vast majority of video games have some sort of attack and what we have already is kinda lacking.. I don't necessarily think guns are needed but the ability to emit anything from a paintinator without the use of the glitch would be nice. I agree that kids playing CoD isn't a good justification of the addition of guns but the fact that there are Mm picked and popular levels with them is a much more valid argument.. At least a lazer gun type thing or a nerf gun like Osty said..

What I would want more than that is Melee weapons and it is proving annoying with a few of my current projects.. The thing is.. the few costume weapons are always in the right hand of the sackperson/bot.. well the sackperson/bot always faces towards the screen making the right hand on the left side of the screen.. Well what's more annoying is that you can't invert a sackbot so that it would be in the left hand and right side of the screen Most platformers and side scrolling games in general play from left to right and it's kinda awkward to have the game play from right to left.. Not to mention the best animation of a sword swing is a slap, and sackbots cant slap in the air.

It shouldn't be this complicated to make basic melee attacks with what we have already and completely rules out a ton of hack and slash, real time RPG and fighting games which are the types of levels I really like to make and I'm sure several other sackbot creators would as well.

Guys, go look at one of the Marvel packs (THE ORIGINAL PRE RELEASE ART) One of the guys had an M4 assault rifle. as an accesory, but they took it out. They need to STOP making this game towards three year olds. The levels some people make are intented for ADULTS! There's much more to be done with a "T" or "M" Rated Little Big Planet, then with an "E" rating. And you know, Nowhere does it say "Game experience may change with online play" The game was intended to be an online creation tool. they should give us the same tools that they used to make the game, and trust me. they MADE the creatinator, and the paintinator. only restriction would be if you knew how to make those items without crashing your own game. which would suck.2011-12-20 18:14:00

dethklokrulez12, your arguments are highly invalid and "your opinion is wrong".

Also, the only good point Dortr has is that the weapons and most one-handed Hand items in LittleBIGPlanet?2 are equipped in the right hand. It isn't a big problem and I can and have made workarounds, but Mm sorta promised hand-switching and Southpaw in LBP?2 ahead of release.

MAIN "/thread"
It is far too easy to create any sort of weapon in LBP?1 and especially, LBP?2 for handhelds. In both games, I made a handheld sniper rifle that can "headshot" another sackperson from across the entire map.

Also, it has been a year and moving Sackbots that do not have dampening and that other option electrocute underwater.

Use the paintinator, or Zurg's weapon, or a decoration in your sack's hand like you see in my signature. That's the closest thing to a gun you'll get on your sackperson, and it is enough.

Gun brands. In LBP. In the popit, you want people to have a Remington rifle next to the creationator. No, I can't read that with a straight face.
We do use the "it's an E rated game", and because it's a logical argument, not a trick. Kids do play violent games. But that doesn't mean they should, it doesn't mean that kind of thing should become trivial and irrelevant to the rest of us. It means parents should keep an eye on what their kids play.

LBP is funny, charismatic, joyful, and the level of violence and grittyness we can already make in it is frankly enough. If you want a game where you shoot everything that moves, you have way too much to choose from already in modern gaming catalogues, please don't try to infect LBP with that. Am I annoyed that we don't have full creative freedom and that stuff like Ungreth's level gets moderated because they deemed it kid-unfriendly? Sure. But it is still a game for everyone. Saying that it should have violence because kids playing violent games has become normal isn't an excuse.

As cool as that would be, sadly, LBP is rated E. :L2012-01-18 04:47:00

Just make customizable powerup handling and looks already! I'm thinking about swords and bows so I can make a lord of the rings level or movie . Well I still need 3d environments but it's a step forward if they do it.2012-03-08 20:37:00

I don't think MM would put guns of any kind (aside from the toy gun on zurg and the paintinator from the MGS kit) in an E rated game. They would likely receive many complaints.2012-03-08 20:51:00

I won't really happen as the idea of guns in a game is considered a PG topic as little big planet is a 7+ game there would be censorship problems. but nerf games and cartoony guns I would like to see more of, tbh I want a water pistol power up


Use the paintinator, or Zurg's weapon, or a decoration in your sack's hand like you see in my signature..



That sackboy you shoot in your signatures looks almost exactly like mine.
