User created levels!!! I swear, i see some of the worst levels that have sometimes over 1,000 plays and many that have even more, while my two levels that are actually high quality dont even break 40 plays. WTF. I could maybe understand, but my level has been published ever since the beta. Sorry if it seems like im complaining, which i kind of am in a way...But all i ask is just please check out my two levels: Death Wish and Egyptian Twilight. Look for X_Reaper as the publisher. My egyptian one is not completely finished, but i have a lot of it done. Please comment them and tell me what could be better :) thanks in advance

I hate the crappy servers. Why should it take 2 minutes to load a user created level? I was in the beta and it took maybe 7 seconds to load. WTF?!?!?

I totally agree. They should seriously fix how they have the levels layed out also.

I feel the exact same way. Some of the crappiest levels make it to the "front page" of the cool levels section. I actually saw one that started off where you spawned right above the finish, and the title was called "heart it please". I mean, WTF??? I spent about 9-10 hours working on my level, and it looked superb. It was pretty short (about 5 minutes to play through) but it looked almost like the MM created levels. I only got about 60 plays, and then they deleted it!!! I didn't even have any offensive content at all, it was very family friendly, and similar to the Savannah level...I'm totally pissed.

I feel your pain. I have also published a couple of levels, and neither of them have got over 50 plays, despite the fact about 30% of people who played them have hearted them (which is a pretty good ratio in comparison to other levels I have seen). My levels aren't that amazing, but I have seen downright poor levels get over 10,000 plays (most of them being ones that give easy trophies). They are pretty much an empty level with thousands of point bubbles, and might have a rocket car or plane thrown in there. Considering I spent countless hours on my levels, shouldn't I get more recognition?

The other main issue with the game is that I cannot play online at all, whatsoever. I can play levels online with little problem, depsite the fact they take ages to load, but I have not once played a single level online with another person, except for once. The one time I did the lag was so horrendous it was unplayable, and I lost connection within a minute. Everything offline works really well however. Oh, and it's not my internet connection, I can play games like Warhawk and Resistance with little to no lag, with 32 players! Why can I not play online with even one other person in LBP? Is it the fact my connection is wireless?

Yeah, another thing I find annoying is the people who make levels solely for the purpose of getting people to heart them. It makes me sick. But it is such a shame, because I have played some AWESOME levels that have hardly broken the 50 plays barrier.

LBP needs a server overhaul and better user created level filters...like you should have a "new" filter that just gives you level that were recently published or best of all you should be able to search for level by name...

You can search for levels by name, or by entering the name of the creator too. However, it doesn't always work right. I searched for my own, and it didn't even come up, while I searched for another one of my own and it worked. But if you go to the Cool Levels, press right D-pad, search, then press square, you can input text for specific levels or creators.

It's not really the game's fault that people who don't have high quality levels have connections with lots of people who will play there levels. You have to find a way to get your level out there, because chances are thousands of people aren't just going to randomly come across it one day.

i never found that before... it would've been nice if they could've made it a little more clear...

Thanks for the replys, and for anyone who played my levels. Glad to see i'm not the only one who is a little frustrated by this. I saw somewhere that they were making a littlebigplanet 2...hopefully they fix some of these issues. Right now its like a horrible version of Youtube.
