While you're at it, could you make it less floaty?

LittleBigPlanet 3 will be targeting 1080p/60fps on the PS4

They HAVE tightened the jumping mechanic up slightly but they can't tighten it too much or it would break a lot of user created levels. You could always use animations from the other three characters to make Sackboy jump slightly differently. Small Toggle looks to jump more quickly and a greater distance for instance.

Maybe Donkey can shed some light.
Either way, 60fps would be great.

While I agree it should be standard this gen...1080p/60FPS is literally the maximum possible resolution and framerate of most TVs. It's really hard to call it a bare minimum. I mean, supersampling would be nice but...SMAA is more practical.
I'll never understand why people who has no interest in a game will go into a thread to shit post or be "concerned". I probably won't even get the game, but I at least know some details about the game from E3 and a thread on here where one of the developers gave some detailed information on the changes to the controls.
Go read the impressions from people who played the game or that E3 LBP3 thread.

Looking forward to this one. I was hoping it would be LBP3D, as in, 3D world builder. But it looks like MM is making that too so I guess its OK.

I know! I'm used to Mario and I think Mario is the best platform game ever and every platformer should look and feel like Mario in every single way. Oh look another NSMB game thats exactly like the game I played 20 years ago. YES!!!

They patched in where you could control the jump physics in LBP2 when you create levels...considering playing the created levels in LBP is where the fun and longevity is, you should take this up with the creators of the levels...

It's what they say during development when they're not there yet. It's being honest. IT's something Sony devs seem to say a lot - Sony likes that open dev PR>

wow
don't understand the negativity in this post
and btw they have shown gameplay, so your last comment is null and void
This is PS4 thread not Xbone, so being full HD is a norm not exception.
Arne mentioned that Sony wants them to use it in order to avoid backlash if there wind up being occasional drops. It still means that they are working to make a 60fps game, I think it's just something the legal department insists on. I see no reason why LBP3 wouldn't be able to easily hit that on PS4.
I would think they will prioritize both and modify graphical complexity and effects to reach these benchmarks.
This isn't the sort of game you want to be dealing with framerate drops in. Should hopefully be a solid(or near enough) 60fps.

Im still pissed at creative gauge being the same as PS3

What part does Kenny Powers not believe?
Yeah, this is fucking bullshit. Makes the transition to PS4 nothing but somewhat aesthetic.
Way to not read the thread. They're tightening the jump mechanics.

As is Assassins Creed, Destiny, Metal Gear Solid, COD, and a host of other sub 1080p, sub 30 fps, or 900p now 1080p later/unpatched games. Cross gen doesn't mean auto 1080p 60fps. But in this case its MM and it's PS4, so you right, dawg. you right.

Sorry, didn't see your post.
Well, that's good. I thought not much was changing because it supports old levels and the E3 demo didn't show me anything different.

Well that's awkward. Might as well lock the thread then mods.

Targetting 60 also allows them to do what they should do.
I'd rather they aim for 60 and hit it 99% of the time, than optimize to make the game run 60FPS 100% of the time (which means they would have to optimize for the rare times the frame rate drops to ensure locked 60)...

parity strikes again!
still gonna get it, it could become my only local mp game
You do know that parity and compatibility are two different words with two different meanings right?
I think being 'cross gen' is a bit misunderstood in some cases. Some people seem to treat it like its a last-gen game just ported up to new hardware with a mere higher resolution or something. But many cross-gen games are actually built for next-gen as the priority but are then scaled down for older hardware, sometimes even by a different team altogether.
I'm not saying that's the case here, but it seemed like you were under the impression that cross-gen means something it doesn't.
Anyways, really great news. The more 60fps, the merrier. I want people to get accustomed to it to where everybody complains when they don't get it!
The thing is, if they're developing it with the intention of it being a cross-generation game - I don't think it matters as much which will be the lead platform and which way porting goes (up or down).
What matters is that they'll have a baseline experience that will be the same across both platforms, it's rare that you'd see in instances like these that a simultaneously releasing current gen version will be a significantly different experience on the more powerful console than the less powerful one.
The core design of the game will remain the same across both platforms - and that is why, most of the time it is not surprising and to be expected a cross generation game is just a better performing and looking version of the last gen. That's why it's expected, not because of up/down porting. Of course, it being cross-generation isn't the only factor, they could have easily done a lot more graphically that had them sacrificing framerate - but I just left that as a given, due to the fact that it's just a LittleBigPlanet sequel.

NO, last-gen holding us back!
