Hello, me and my friend have had trouble connecting to each other on LBP. We just got it christmas. Everytime we try to connect to each other we lag very bad in the pod and in-game. We both have really good connections and are fine when we play with each other in other games. Is this a connection issue to LBP (my ps3 is DMZed though) ? It might also be LBP servers since many ppl may have gottan lbp in the past week? Also, i have experienced no lag when connecting to other certain people or them connecting to me. UPDATE: Me and my friend were finally able to connect last night. We played like 2 lvls and then we started to lag alot, as normal. We havent been able to play without much lag ever since. I just want some clarification that this is a server issue, it may still be other things though.

Some networks don't work well together. It's not something that can be easily fixed, either. Sorry man.

Some networks don't work well together. It's not something that can be easily fixed, either. Sorry man. Yea that is probably it. I know I got lucky, my buddy I play with, or used to play with (less now cause of all these darned patch issues) we have a perfect connection to each other. But with others, FORGET it! Some people I just cannot connect to, no matter how much I try (right Creative ) and if it does work it's a lag fest. I don't suggest you stop trying, maybe call your service provider (both of you) and tell them about the issue, who knows maybe there is an easy fix, and I bet they would be the best to know.

Strange how they can get a 60 player match in R2 with hardly any lag yet they can't get LBP to run smoothly with 2 people.

Strange how they can get a 60 player match in R2 with hardly any lag yet they can't get LBP to run smoothly with 2 people. That's a good point, but at the same time it's not the same. I remember Alex speaking of the "cheating" aspect when building a game. In games like resistance, you can cheat, that is to say have buildings and objects, materials etc behave how ever you like, so it makes the gameplay alot easier and smoother. In LBP, everything has to work exactly as it should, otherwise we would not be able to create like Mm. So the physics engine and whatever else gets the game running must be harder on the servers and peoples connections... I could be wrong, this is what I've deduced from the info I have, but seems that would be why it's a little harder. Couple that with the fact that Mm is a youg company, I can understand why it would take more time to get it all running perfectly.

The connection is as strong as it's weakest link. If you're playing with someone that has bad connection to the internet, everyone will lag.

I still dont think its a connection issue between us 2 because we can connect fine to each other when we play other games, anyway, listen to this: Me and my friend were able to connect without any major lag issues, (running smoothly most of the way finally) for like 1.5 -- 2 hours and it was running so good except he said that my voice was really choppy and that he could hear me on and off like, if i was saying "go over there and get that bubble," he would only hear "go ov.." or "go over the...". We use voice chat alot and it is essential in making the game a lot easier for coop challenges and for fun. Also, my mic is fine in all other games and private chats. I still think these faults during gameplay are server issues because our connection hasn't changed, yet for the past two days we have had better connections. I would like to know if anybody else has had trouble with their voice chat and if/what they did to fix it.
