Update 1.12 makes "Dive In 25" trophy harder

[toast1979]

Last night I managed to rack up 13 Dive Ins during a 30minute period using the empty lucky dip area, today after the new patch it took me nearly 20minutes using the new Dive In option to get my remaining 3needed Dive Ins.

I am glad I made it to 22last night before this patch dropped...

i'm curious to know how difficult it is to get the dive in 25 trophy post patch. i have tried 4 dive in attempts none of which registered at all. twice the host died and i made it to the end. twice there was a fail to load problem when we used a sub-level link at the end of a level.

i tried lucky dip twice, ended up playing two levels alone, made it to the scoreboard and neither registered as a dive in session.

the only dive in sessions that have counted so far were ones i had before the patch.

EDIT: i noticed there have been a couple of methods that claim to make this trophy more easily obtainable. with the patch, we no longer have the dive in option to specific levels, or mm picks, or cool pages. the only dive in button is the first one you find when hitting the community button. which means you will end up in someone's pod and it's been my experience that many people who accept dive in guests just want to mess around in their pods.

I can't be sure, but I believe you need to convince them to play and complete a level for it to count, but whatever the criteria, it was a surprisingly annoying trophy to slog through (admittedly haven't done the 24 hours create yet).

It was a pain, but it wasn't hard, just required some time and perseverance. You definitely don't need to finish a level, I got plenty to register by playing around in a create area on players' moons. You do have to stick near them for a few minutes though (probably only like 2, better shoot for 5 to be safe).

Like I said, it was a pain, but I was able to grind out 21 over the course of several hours on a Saturday morning/afternoon (today, in fact). The other 4 were attempted on weekday evenings, which did not go well (took like 2 hours just to get those 4).

This trophy isn't possible for me! I've tried countless times to "dive in", and I have never connected with anyone. Is this common now?

i grinded this out yesterday and was hell to do, from my experiance, u need to spend a minimum of 1 min with them inside a level or in create mode, after 1 min u can leave.

doing multiple levels with that 1 person doesnt count, only the first level.

thats what i found anyway, the last 10 or so wasn't so bad once i figured out i didnt have to stay with them for more than a minute

I've only played this game post patch, but as I understand it, the Dive In trophy has been made more difficult because people just want to fool around in their pod, go to create mode, join another one of their friends, get rejected/kicked or it simply times out the search. However on the opposite side, the 50 Unique players trophy has been made a whole lot easier. Just sit there in your pod receiving requests for people to join you every few minutes. Just select your own level to play, they only have to enter for it to count. No hassle at all.

I could be wrong but it seems like the new patch (1.14) seems to have fixed this, as I've been able to dive in, and many people have been trying to dive in on me too. Kind of kinky.

i was never having any problems actually connecting with people with the previous update, rather after diving in and playing a level with someone, it wasn't registering when i looked at my pin progress. have all your dive in sessions been registering?
