Mine keeps saying, "We've encountered an error while processing your order." Is this common? I don't see anybody on this page saying it.

Edit: nevermind, my payment method was expired. I don't know why it didn't tell me that in the first place.

Thanks for the OT. Been so long since I've been this hyped about a game, and im not even that creative. Have it bought and will be learning starting thursday. My 6 year old Daughter is really excited after explaining the concept. Great job Media Molecule and Sony

Yes, I got it! So hyped to mess with this after work with my daughter! I remember playing LBP for the first time and Tearaway for the first time, cool stuff.

Time to get back to rendering models and puppets of weird shit my 7 year old nephew draws. Good to have this back on my console.


Feels like this dropped out of nowhere. I thought this was an opt-in thing.
I'll take it.

When they were first mentioning the Early Access model, Sony sent out an email with language that seemed to suggest on its face that a person ought to register/sign-up in order to gain access to the Dreams EA, particularly when coupled with the note attached saying Early Access would have a "limited number of spaces available". Obviously reading between the lines you were able to figure out that it would in fact be open to all, and just have the number of purchasable copies capped, but someone just following Dreams casually could easily have missed that. It was all pretty clever marketing and a smart way to capitalize on all the buzz the Creator Beta had riled up.

So random question: Is this gonna be unbuyable after a certain number of people buy it? If so, I wonder how long this'll be buyable until

If there's literally anyone I'm confident will do something incredible, it's you, lol.
Thx but it's not like i'm a 3d artist you know :p

So i didn't try the editor at all but i played with the demos.

Something i'm really worried about. Let's face it, most of this, and that counts MM games to, has terrible control in general.. Like, super sensitive 3d control where it's just difficult to go in a straight line or unprecise jump.. My fear is that it comes from the way it's done in the tool, i hope not, and i hope you don't have to struggle like crazy to have something that controls comfortably. Or it'll be LBP all over again.

For exemple, take that 2d shooter, it's allll loose, with a TONE of inertia... I wonder if that's just guys at MM who loves this kind of control or if it's the pfysical aspect of the engine that gives that..

But yeah strong LBP vibes here and that's not good.

I've messed around for it for a few hours now and I really like it so far. It's fun going through levels and continually finding stuff that I didn't realize was possible. I haven't messed with making my own game yet but I've been using the music tools and they're pretty great.

They have said the number of available copies is big, but if you are interested I would say buy it now, even if you only intend to play other's creations. Couple of days from now it could be sold out...

Before I dip, and buy, quick question. Can we play other creations from other users in Early Access?

Pretty sure, yeah:

Make Games, Music, Movies, Art and more in an ever-expanding universe of creativity!

With Early Access get hands-on with the powerful Dreams creator tools ahead of the full game launch.

Learn from a series of in-depth tutorials and masterclass videos.

Remix arcade content into your own creations – and play a host of inventive mini-games that will spark your imagination.

Share your ideas with the online community and collaborate with other creators.

Already did!

Bought.

Probably more so to support MM but I'm sure I'll have a good play around over the Easter break.

It is basically full game. Only features missing are essentially VR and campaign (and whatever improvements they make along the way before full release). As such you should be able to find and play anything that is published by anyone.

Tried buying it from my PC at work. It didn't take my CVV. Deleted my payment methods and readded my card. Still didn't take my CVV. Couldn't try another card because I had too many failed attempts, API was rejecting all requests. I can't buy anything on my account for 24 hours.

Made another account and used my other card. Glad it was still available at that point. Didn't show up while searching.

Sony keeps asking me to put in my credit card CVV. wont accept it. wtf.

Yep I had the same problem with my cards and PayPal too, on both the Mobile App and through the website (I was at work) Never have that issue when using the PS4 though. I guess the web version of PSN has a bug or something.

I just got a £25 Top Up Code from GAME and redeemed the code, that worked no problem.

Search for Captain Shadow. It's a project Steve_big_guns was working on that had fantastic controls.

I'm not a creative person or really have time to create, but the stuff I've seen created in dreams had really impressed me. Is this worth getting just to play other people's stuff?

i hope they take us through some of the big asks from the beta in future streams - and take their time doing it.

Eg get the guys that made shadow, sprout, and panis pot and get them to go slowly through setting up characters that clearly aren't using the stock puppet, or in the case of panis pot just setting up a rich environment with lots of interactive elements

imo yes ! I'm just like you and people's creations are awesome ! All creations made during the beta and that have been saved (I guess almost all of them) are in the early access so you have already a lot of contents

I was able to just start the intro before rushing to work, but I gotta say. MM has a way to always keep me smiling in their intros, they're just so full of joy

What is the upgrade path from early access to full release?

If i jump in now, what do i need to pay to get the finished product when it's fully gone gold?

Struggled the whole day, bought it a few minutes ago. I had fun in the beta, but some problems with sculpting. Still have an idea in my mind that I think is good and this time Ill take more time and try to do better.

Is there a Nda this time? Would surprise me.

From the PlayStation Blog Q&A:
Q: If I buy Dreams Early Access, does that mean I get access to the full version of the game when it's released, without paying any extra/twice?
A: Early Access is intended for Creators who will participate and contribute to Dreams Early Access, and in return, will have the full version of Dreams upon release.

Yes. I've got it. Quickly went to Best Buy on my way to a site visit. Picked up $40 of PS store gift cards and added it through the PS4 App.

So happy. Never got access to the Beta despite signing up to the second wave on day one. Going to mainly focus on music creation.
