Game Updates

Sometimes we find stuff that’s broken and we need to fix it, and other times we need to add new bits and pieces into the game. We do this with game updates. You don’t have to do a thing - when you load up LittleBigPlanet, it will automagically seek the latest updates to the game, download them across the interwebnets and install them to your PS3. If you’ve ever wondered just what exactly was being fixed, added or fine tuned, then this is the page for you! All the release notes for each update, lovingly typed out into lists.

1.02 Apple Cake

Release date: 08/03/2011
A data update containing future downloadable add-on content.

Fixes:

• Fixed an issue where a player that imports a profile from a different user and declines the EULA can still play online. It should no longer be possible for a player that imports another users profile and declines the EULA to play online, selecting an online option should prompt them to re-read and accept/decline the EULA.
• Fixed an issue whereby a client leaving an online create session would hang when they opted to use the “Import Profile” option after being returned to their pod.
• Fixed an issue where some Japanese store text descriptions contained visible HTML tags.
• Fixed an issue where players that had imported beta profiles and were using DLC assets they didn’t own could still use them. In 1.01 we fixed a problem to do with importing assets from the beta trial build which allowed users access to some rare DLC items. Part of the fix was to check for stripped assets and not allow a user to select them in pop-it. The item however would still be visible in pop-it and have an exclamation mark over its icon. Players could highlight one of these items and very quickly press the and buttons with it highlighted which would allow the user to still wear it.

• Several improvements to overall game stability have been made.
