The worst vehicle to control is the tricycle motorcycle but I adjusted to most, the better vehicles control fine.

It is really that awesome, really recommend the game.
I have trouble with motorcycles and the little modest cars. Turning with some of this cars is a pain, specially U turn. The better cars i think handle fine.
But this game rocks, it is the best game I have so far for Wii U.

When one considers just how much is in the game the loading speeds don't seem that bad if it's loading up the entire city every time you back to it.

This game just keeps getting more fun!
Finished the story last night. The ending was amazing; a truly satisfying conclusion to an excellent game.
Now to try for 100%. Lego City's desgn is superb. Every block is unique. All of them have hidden secrets. The amount of optional content is ridiculous. If you like exploration in your open world games, then I can not recommend Lego City highly enough.

Finally got the last usable costume today. So now I can do all the things I couldn't do before! Great feeling, although I'm afraid it will sidetrack me a lot from the last couple of missions.
Only ability I don't like much is the
It's so irritating to always have to run around and look for the right
, especially for the voluntary quests around town.
Only ability I don't like much is the
paint gun.

I kind of want a mini-sequel or DLC devoted entirely to the misadventures of Frank Honey

So does every costume you get have an actual use or are most of them just for show because I'm not really seeing the point of equipping any of them except the main ones you get in the story. I'm only on the 5th chapter so far btw.
There is a red brick in the Uptown area that fixes this. It is near a
toy shop with two rockets on either side of the sign. You'll need green paint to activate the rockets, and the astronaut suit for a teleporter. The red brick unlocks the super paint gun, which cycles between colors, so no more looking for paint stations
There is one with an actual use.
Cant you use parts of the secondary costumes to change the look of your main ones? There is the line up room next to where you buy costumes.

Hallelujah! Headed directly there next.
I'll settle for the 3DS game! Looks to be good. I'm enamored enough with the Wii U game that I'm going in blind on the 3DS version.
I haven't tried mixing up secondary costumes, but I think you're correct. I was saying that one of the secondary costumes grants a new ability necessary for accessing certain secrets.
Decided to make a video demonstrating how long it takes from start up to playing the game: 3:19 with the game running off the hard drive.

Well,
I literally queue the game up as I start to boil the water for my tea. Steep the tea for a few minutes later and I'm good to go. Definitely a bottleneck.

Damn, the background loading music is really great lol. They should really include it on an OST release.
That's about the only positive thing about your video lol. That and the game looks great even on youtube.
Streaming it now if you want to see what it looks like on Twitch.

Thanks for the link.
EDIT:- I tried accessing it, what's your bitrate lol, it's too high even for my internet connection! Your stream doesn't have a quality changer either. No 360p, 480p options, only a Best option.
Try it again, had an issue.

Does the game ever stop nagging me to go to the next mission? I just want to explore a bit, jesus. But I get a call every few minutes telling me where I need to go next.
Also annoying: the flashing text that reminds me of basic game mechanics that I've been doing for hours now.

ha yea, that was a bit annoying, I believe the controller even vibrates.
Me last night: "Sorry I'm late for bed, dear; I had to save LEGO City from destruction."
My wife and kids have had a few days off this week and they've been desperately trying to catch up to me. But then they get that wanderlust it's a lost cause 😄

Yup, that's a pain, and it seems to be getting worse near the end of the game. That, or I'm finally feeling able to do everything I find, so the pull to ignore the missions is stronger.

Are you at the beginning? Most calls I get (when not on a mission) have to be taken manually by tapping the icon on the screen

Does he have the volume set too low on the tablet controller? Some of the voices come from that.
Yeah you have to take the all manually but it does ring to remind you to take the call. I'm glad I'm finished the game so I can explore in peace.

No its not that. Looking on the net it seems a few have this problem. Fixed by changing your TV audio output in the Wii U system settings.
This, but also note that if you turn the Gamepad volume all the way down, the voices will actually play through the TV. This is really handy for when I'm playing at night with headphones.
Other than that, no, I've never heard a voice cut out.
I went off in the middle of chapter 13 (I think), just before a special assignment, because I had quit at that point the night before. I spent the next night just doing random crap in the city and Chase kept saying "I need to get back on the case." ARGH

Yes! I've been running around unlocking side stuff because I hate to complete story and then have to retread just to see the cool stuff, and it's really annoying to see Honey constantly popping up asking me to
rescue him
Has anyone else discovered the
Lego store
build giant models in there
Yup, that was cool
So wait, you hook up the headphones to the Gamepad and it cancels all sound output to the TV, and pipes it all through to the headphones? I've been using wireless headphones connected to my TV, but this intrigues me.
I think you can get a good idea reading the last few pages of the thread. Really fantastic game that does a lot of things right. Load times are a pain but they're only for a very few key moments.
Yeah the thread has been really positive on the game. Almost everyone falls in love with it. We've had a couple people that didn't like it but that was mainly due to the fact that it is a LEGO game, which means it is not THAT challenging.
The loading times are pretty bad in the beginning (just started it on Tuesday) but I have the feeling there are less and less as I've been progressing.

I've had a blast with it thus far. The game is legit funny and I've come to appreciate the fact that not all the humor is aimed at everyone. My wife and daughter laugh at different parts than I do, and that's ok. It's really a good family game. I probably wouldn't have enjoyed it as much prior to getting married and having a kid.
