Have fun and enjoy!

Yay! I'm the first to post about dakrrs 's new awesome level! (SCORE! )
This looks epic, I hope the gameplay is awesome too!

it does. and i'll be queuing it up

in the queue it will go

I'm sure I will love it!

I am excited to try it! Queued!

I have to retry it. PSN was really malfunctioning and i got loading screen every five seconds.
One thing is for sure, it looks great.

Hit YouTube.

Go ahead. Spoil it.

Wow! Congratulations! I must spoil it...

Just a tip, a race may be nice, it helps get a more variable score. The quicker you finish a race, the more points you get, so combine this with all of the multipliers and you get a very variable score! It helps when a mass plays it, that it is less likely to get the same score.

Replayed it, worked fine this time.
Nice scenery but didnt have to much time to enjoy it while flying through the level.
Had fun playing it.

: D
My reaction!
Gameplay is neat, design is fascinating and Oddsock is so Oddsock!
Also I've never really got how to make the score bubbles in a jump arc very well...

This shouldn't be counted as spam, so please do not go rage at me because of a 'double post.'
I played this level and got in the top 10 on scoreboard (10th )
And I ended up playing it ten times because:
First time it lagged severely due to loading
Second and almost the rest: Some lag and I couldn't see the buttons or know if I hit them, so occasionally that ruined my multiplier.
10th time: No lag! And I knew the whole level for 'some reason'
So people may have to play it more than once to actually play it, rather than jump over water, lag, fall into the water.

That's bizarre. I never had severe lag when playing this one.

Just a moderately rated frame rate.

I may have to try it again. I did play it and the dynamic thermo caused it to do exactly what @Psmerga said (i'm on PS3). but since I hear that they replayed it and it worked fine, i'll have to come back and give it another go.

When I say severe, I mean loading screens and temp freezing (up to 10 seconds)
Also dakrrs, I might make a thread about DLC Costume Concepts whereas everyone can post their own DLC Concept art! I plan to draw some concepts of shows/games/movies/etc. people like, such as How to Train Your Dragon! Which I'm sure you'd love to see! Might as well do something like a The Elder Scrolls DLC Costume Concept art!

10 second loading freezes? o_o

How to Train Your Dragon? O_O

Yeah... O_O
YESH! @_@

Dakkrs probably has that thing you get when you're really freaking excited.

If loading is my thing, I'll do my best to look at this at a diffrent light. Queued.

I've made an update. I may have to crop the landscape down further. I'm really trying to reduce the in-game loading screens.

Tell me where they occur and how often.

I'm working with a dynamic thermometer.

How many different decos do you use?
Since it was really random, i suppose that it is a combination of overloaded LBP servers(90%probability) and maybe to much different decos(10%).
(The next day it worked fine for example)
I also think that normal thermo can withstand quite much shaped material. (Much more than in LBP2 i think)
Did you try the level with normal thermo?
If you try the level after the patchday, does it work better?

Only the first one or two times it lagged Dakrrs, so no need to worry

Looked great! Good Job, kudos to you!

THAT FRIKIN' DOES IT!

Recommended for PS4



Just played it on another friends' console and it lagged/froze up throughout the ENTIRE level!

I made 2 updates and it still freezes up. I'm officially ticked off.

I wanted all players to enjoy this, but I guess only PS4 players will get to play this level without interruptions.

Dynamic Thermometers are awesome SUCK!

Despite playing on PS3 I didn't have a single froze or lag. I really enjoyed it!

First time when i played, it was a serious lagfest.
But day after, it went all smooth to the end.
(Playing on PS3)
So i cant pinpoint it only on the thermo.
I would say that it is also somehow connected to the LBP server traffic.
If to much people playing at the same time, the connections start to lag maybe.
Since it must download all the time permanently for every section of the level.
I suppose that it will also lag on PS4 then.

Since i never experienced it in other dynamic thermo levels, i suppose that there must be also some part in your level that stresses additionally the thermo.
Still i dont think to good of dynamic thermo because it dont load all material pieces sometime.
Experienced already a big holes in some levels because of it.

I think LBP is playing tricks on ya.
