I may be wrong but it seems like there's some misunderstanding over what this means. As ever, here's a mini FAQ. Is online create in the game from launch?
No it's not, however it will be included in the first game update after launch. We're working on making this available as quickly as possible, but want to make sure it's right before releasing it. What does online create actually mean?
Online create, quite simply, is the ability to use the create side of the game in an online multiplayer fashion. So I can still share my levels?
Absolutely. All of the sharing features of the game are up and running. And I can still play multiplayer?
Yes. Online multiplayer for playing the game is still very much there. And I can still create levels with my friends offline?
Totally. Up to 4 players can work together on a single PS3 to create levels. Also, you can still work collaboratively with friends to build levels by exchanging them through the share portion of the game. From my perspective, which you can take or leave, it is well worth getting some practise in with the create side of the game before trying to use it in a multiplayer fashion as it can be somewhat frustrating to get things done if everyone you're working with is still getting used to all the functions. While it's not ideal to have to wait for this feature to be released, it might actually be beneficial to creators until it happens as you'll be able to work out the tools entirely, and figure out how best to work with others on your projects.

Nice FAQ Sam. Just one question left. Will this update be free, or part of some payable DLC? I really hope it's free though. Message Edited by Majky on 09-22-2008 05:14 AM

Personally, I don't know why anybody is thinking that LBP will get bad reviews just because of this. You all seem to forget all the groundbreaking features we will be getting from the beginning, the in depth level design, character design, online sharing, etc. I really wish people would quit complaining about such simple things that we will eventually get and accept and enjoy the things that we are going to get. This game is going to be awesome, I wouldn't care if I ever got the online creation mode, I am getting this day one, I preordered it already. I can't wait! PS Thanks for the input Sam!

I'm sorry guys but I gotta say GIANT BOO. I honestly figgered this game was delayed enough that it would be 100% complete on release. Now I'm forced to sit here waiting and hoping it sells well enough for Sony to get on top of the online stuff. ...and considering Sony's recent track record of releasing I'm kinda stuck thinking "when"? Are we looking at a month? Six months? More? I'm sure I'll still like the game enough, and who knows how much I'll even use the omitted features. Just kinda let down that it's not gonna be 100% is all. Message Edited by ProfessorEss on 09-22-2008 06:58 AM

^^^^^^ Are we looking at EVEN ONE MONTH? Seriously, the guys at MediaMolecule finished the code for the game last week and they are already working in updates, extra things to add, new content, etc... and the online create mode is on top of their to-do list, so I wouldn't be surprised if by the time we first play the game it asks us to update it with the online mode. Stop being so negative, seriously.

Sorry, but that's the big question for me - you can guess that it'll be under a month, I can worry it'll be over six. I'm sure I'll be chilled back out once I get the game and get drunk on it's power of creativity but I can't help feeling a little letdown that it's not roaring out of the box at 100%. ...this unfortunetly, has me a little negative at the moment - and I think it's somewhat fair to be.

You people are getting ridiculous! Do you even know what goes into developing a game, especially one such as this one. Making a game is no simple task, and the daunting standards that MM are set up to I am sure has had them stressed big time! This is one tiny thing that will not be in there right off the bat. But, not only will we definitely be getting it, it will be free! This feature is not absolutely needed. Believe it or not, there was a time before your birth I am guessing that there were no online games, and once you bought a game, that was it. No updates. MM are being kind enough to continue work, giving us all kinds of pre order and launch day goodies, and yet whiners like you are on here crying over one thing that will not be out by day one. Games are not easy to make, so quit saying "well, after all the delays it should be 100%" because this has nothing to do with it. Programming, texturing, modeling, and everything else are very difficult and must be done well and precise and all bugs fixed. I am sure there has been good reason for delays, get over it. We will get the game, a great game, very soon since it is gold, there is no stopping it now. But people like you should really get over the whole online jam mode thing for now, we will get it, they are working on it now, Sam even said so! So please, can this thread die now!!! Phew, that was a large one... lmao. Thanks again Sam for the continued support.
