Playstation Move Thread: It Only Does Everything

TTP said:
Tell me more. How do you map reload on the extra buttons provided by this accessory? The one located under the clip for example, what Move button does it represent?
Click to expand...
It's a brand new button - We can map it to whatever we want, but its intended for reload.

As a shooting enthusiast, I really enjoy playing with the SS - It just feels so natural in my hands and the collapsible stock reduces arm fatigue quite a bit.
 
So I picked up MAG today on the cheap, I wanted it mostly for the Move controls. I have a feeling it'll be pretty rough to jump in the game for the first time while I'm also adjusting to the controller, but it should be fun. I look forward to using this thing with an FPS for the first time.

So, it's just patched in right? No DLC required?
 
Hehe that sharp shooter looks awesome, though a bit embarrassing to have lying about in the living room ;p

Also just got sent a code for Sackboy's PA, gonna fire that up tonight weeee.

you can practice, before playing joining an online match.....mess with the various settings to see what best fits you.

if you want an idea to start off with, go here and watch the videos....I can't find TTP's settings...but in the comment section there are some examples others are using.

to be honest, I had fun using the Move with MAG and that is all I would play the game with now....I mean I would get killed alot using the DS3 or Move about evenly....but I would get more mulitlple kills in an area using the Move.

So let me get this right, in the case of MAG you can map it to Square? I assume you need to patch the game to fully support the SS then?
 
Is Sony having other games bundled with Move and PSEye? I saw an official Start the Party bundle today at Target, looks exactly like the Sports Champion bundle, except it's Start the Party.

Any attachment that has access to all buttons with ease is a good attachment.

Probably retailer exclusives like the Eyepet one at Toys "R" Us. SCEA does that without telling some one a lot.
 
I'm sorry if this is an old question but I only just got the Move controllers: where is Flight Control HD on the US store? Is it not coming? And if not, how difficult is it to make a UK account?

It's not coming to US.

Making a UK account is easy. The "difficult" part is getting some EU PSN credit. You can purchase it online via eBay or other stores, but I don't have suggestions to offer.

I have this and played it for a bit...it's definitely a 2+ player game as you can't do the platforming and the Move stuff at the same time.
 
Konosuke said:
Once again, nice video. I'm bummed too about the lack of online play. I need some guests to play it soon as some mechanics look awesome.

And damn thermometer indeed, your level looks amazing! Can't you split it up and post it?

Wait, the multiplayer is local only? This sucks, I was going to play with some friends tonight! It's impossible to play single player. :(

Yeah, it's a pretty barebones game (if you can call it that). You still have your pod and stuff, but theres no stickers, no custom soundtracks, and no online play. I guess it's neat as a way to show off Move with LBP and I can't complain about the price (free), but it's pretty much just the equivalent of a DLC level pack without all the bells and whistles that you'd have in the real game.

I haven't played it since the day it came out, it started to get pretty aggravating with only one controller.
 
I bet we could play it with a nav-con and Move if only they'd rejigger the controls around a little bit (Move = Jump, L1 = grab).
 
So, what do people think are the odds that Dead Space 2 will get move support? It's a bit more than a month from release now and still nothing in the way of an announcement, or even a hint.
Hey Codecow, are there anymore unannounced announments for DS2 by any chance? :D

Since they haven't announced it by now my guess is that the best hope for this game getting Move support would be for people to buy a lot of copies on PS3 and then hope they see it as a prudent investment to go ahead and add DLC or a patch that enables Move support.

Are you sure there's no custom soundtracks? Saw the music player in the options menu, didn't try it though.

yeah, i was thinking a patch at a later date might be the best chance of move support at this stage. I'll be getting DS2 either way and i'm looking forward to playing Extraction (again!) with move this time, so i can complain i suppose...
 
I was just thinking about the different levels of motion control possible with Move:

Cursor, orientational: Ruse, Killzone 3, MAG, Sackboy's Prehistoric Moves
Cursor, positional: Beat Sketcher, Auditorium
Tilt, gestures: Kung Fu Rider
Advanced orientation: Tiger Woods
Augmented reality, full 1:1: Eyepet, Start the Party
Third person avatar control, full 1:1: The Fight, Sports Champions Gladiator Duel, Sorcery
Virtual reality, full 1:1: Sports Champions Table Tennis/Bocce/Disc Golf, Tumble, Virtua Tennis
Full body tracking, skeletal/silhouette: Kung Fu Live

yeah ill try resetting the move in a little bit and let you know how it works out, but i have disabled the magnetometer and it doesn't make a difference in my game. it still drifts. thanks for your help.
Click to expand...

Time Crisis Razing Storm Patch 1.01 was released yesterday and I can't recreate the magnetometer issue anymore. Looks like it was fixed?

I tried two Moves (after having re-enabled the magnetometer in both) and the cursor doesn't drift anymore as I hold the cover button down.

Can anyone confirm?

Edit - Got confirmation from trusted source. That's what 1.01 does indeed.

Auditorium HD does positional tracking like Beat Sketcher.
The Tumble stuff is usually referred to as Virtual Reality (as opposed to Augmented Reality).
 
ok guys i need some help over here. it looks like my PS3 system cant detect my move controller anymore. i can only turn on my PS3 system using the move controller by pressing the ps button, after that i get absolutely no response from the controller. the bulb doesnt glow, i cant play games, navigate the XMB, heck it doesnt even show me the in game xmb menu or i cant even turn off my ps3 by pressing the 'ps' button. strange thing is my eye camera works perfectly fine, so i dunno if its a problem with the controller or something else. anyone knows what wrong?

Is the Move LED on while it doesn't work?
 
Hey guys,

If anyone took advantage of the American Express Pass offer to get a Move controller, I just got an email with a code for some goodies:

- PlayStation® dynamic themes to customize your XMB
- A PlayStation® Home fortune-teller mini-game
- A PlayStation® Home VIP shirt for your avatar
- A PlayStation® Home Midway Carnival ticket worth 2x the number of gameplays

Ill try it out when I get home.

I had an issue like this once but it went away somehow I considered it a fluke.
(It might be that I reset the ps3 actually which got it working... unplug it once from wall after total shutdown)

If you connect the usb cable do the buttons function on the move?

How does John Daly fit in vs. Tiger Woods? (I don't know the details of how those work)

Or for that matter, Planet Minigolf with it's calibration-less play?
 
Man, I can't wait for the 21st :D I signed up for that House Party website, applied to host a New Years party and got in. They're sending me 2 Moves, the PSEye, Sports Champions, Singstar Dance, and The Shoot (as well as a bunch of party supplies :lol), and it should all be here on the 21st. :D It's awesome because money is tight for the family, so aside from a few small items, I wasn't expecting much come Christmas time. Can't wait to show it off to the whole family on Christmas though, especially since I think the kids will get a kick out of it. Once I can, what's the best game to get first though? I'm thinking about picking up MAG and checking that out (and maybe even nab a nav. con.).

Let's see in real life, I have to take my hand off the weapon to reload.

1. Take hand off weapon

2. use the hand that I took off the weapon to fetch a full magazine clip

3. and so on

What is this real life simulation shit.

Was something wrong with having reload as one of the buttons on the Move controller? Why are things being made more complicated for no reason. In real life, I don't have to have my hand on a controller to walk.

You can map the buttons to whatever you want. You dont have to use it if you dont want. I believe [] is what you are looking for. There its over.

Yeah, I got it a few hours ago. The estimated delivery is on the 21st, but I'm on the West Coast and it's shipping from Saint Louis, so that might explain the longer shipping time. If I get it earlier though, yay for me! :D

mh,
http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2010/12/13/a-new-website-launches-on-ps3/

eu.playstation.com was revamped for the PS3 browser and according to the blog and the replies, you can use the Move as a (mouse) pointer. I'm not at home right now so I can't test it, would be really strange that the website need to support it instead of making it the default cursor control?!

edit: nvm, blog comments say Move controls aren't different on this new site, no idea why they mention it as a feature in the blog.



not Move related but also interesting:

I just had a look at the stats and 720p resolution is used by less than 2% of our users on the PS3 browser.
Click to expand...

(that's why this new website version is only available if your PS3 is set to 1080p/i)



next up will be the eu PS blog btw (including making the linked videos work on the PS3) and PSN community features.
