Media Molecule Takes Down Rating System For LittleBigPlanet

In a recent Twitter update from Media Molecule, an announcement was made that the beloved but controversial rating system in LittleBigPlanet will be taken down......

There was even a trophy for rating a certain number of levels, easy but I didn't do it, seemed too forced.

Seems weird.

Oh bummer.

Just so everyone is not confused by the article, it is only a temporary take down. The author just forgot to mention that little tiny thing...

The rating system is stupid, people are scared to make the levels they want to make or hard levels, just incase people get pissed and rate low. Thats why there are so many mindless run and jump BS levels, levels that explain every little thing so you don't get confused and leave.

I wish they would leave it off.

Too true. My first level was quite poor tbh, but I put hours and hours into it and tried my best. I made lots of traps for people because I find those sort of things funny and interesting in levels and they make me laugh. But most people probably didn't even try to finish that level and so I'm reluctant to make any more really. The shark and jump levels are fun once, now every second level you glance at on the community map is one of those.

i put SOOOooooo much time into my lvls and people barley play it. it seems everyone only plays shark/bomb lvls anymore, and yet they get 1 million plays even if they suck.

my lvls have boss fights, puzzles, traps, challenges etc and i can barley get over 300 plays..........

Yeah, I actually look out more for levels that have no plays (or even just a few) because every now and again you find a gem of a level and it's great to see people that can flex their creativity in a game like this (I'm pretty terrible with things like this to be honest lol).

I never understood that either, I mean all the shark and jump levels are the same, yet you see different ones up there every day with huge ratings and plays. I mean surely one or two are enough right?
