Does anyone know if you can change the code of a figure to an identical ones code? I am getting a replacement S1 Prism Break and a S1 Cynder so I want the code to match the current figure.

An idea for Advisor_Orville ... actually I have a lot of them but I won't overwhelm.

I think it would be great if the roaming skylanders would automatically engage sheep mobs and troll camps and clear them. You could either drop a roaming skylander on/near the camp, click on them like you do now, or wait for them to figure it out. In addition to this, keep a record of sheep mobs and troll camps cleared by each skylander in their information screen. Last but not least, make the mission cancelable in case you need one for something else like an elemental totem pole.

Thanks,

Toleroh

I have a question about leveling characters up. Before the Eye Brawl update the progression of gems received was 1 gem for the first two levels (2&3), 2 gems for levels 4&5, 3 gems for levels 6&7, 4 gems for levels 8&9 but 3 for level 10, but now I only get 1 gem for any leveling up. Is this correct? Also, a friend has not updated the game and can still get the old number of gems for leveling up characters. Will the time limited offers expire for people who do not update?

Can we please but GEMS with gold? I'm 58/59 all level 10 and max on XP. I am not spending real money on GEMS (anymore) but would still go on adventures if I was earning Gold I could use to buy GEMS with (for specialty house ps, Cupid flameslinger, etc). Make it super expensive like 25000 gold for 1 Gem. This would substantially increase playing time for people who are currently finished. Thank you for your consideration

I missed out on the 2 giant houses, Tree Rex's and Hot Head's, and am hoping you can bring them back please.
Another request is to increase max levels for both kingdom and skylanders levels. Thank you.

Losing the opportunity to buy the Giants' houses really stinks for new players. I think it should be unlocked after reaching level 10 with the giant.

Will Ninjini and Legendary Chill be added to the game anytime soon? I'm level 30. I don't really have anything left to do...waiting for characters to be put in the game, when the figures have been released for weeks is very frustrating!


I also like the idea of gems for gold... As I said...when you hit level 30...there's not that much left to do.

They're guaranteed to come back several more times "for a limited time," though. (Probably after they release all eight houses they'll cycle through them all again one at a time, and by that point they'll be ready to start adding features around the new game.) Things always sell better when they have a limited availability than if you can get them whenever you want.

Much like how the improved balloons have already been on sale at least FIVE different times, but there's still a spike in sales every single time they drop in price, and (more surprisingly) a number of people will still purchase them at FULL price instead of waiting a few weeks for the next "limited time" sale.

Can you please fix the bug that only lets you use a web code for one user with an Activision Account? My family plays Lost Islands (2 kids, 2 adults), and we have always been able to use the codes 4 times when we buy new characters. But since you introduced the Activision Account with social features, we can only use the codes 1 TIME! This is so not cool. I should not have to pay for characters that I ready own, and we should be able to use the code a reasonable number of times - not just once.

Sadly this is not a bug (this is how activate works) it is the same in skylanders CP (and in that game it even tells you that a code will only work for 1 activate account)

And there's a bug with the "Raise the Level Cap" quest. Looks like they coded it to trigger only when a Skylander hits level 12. Not to chack if they already had. I already had all of mine at level 12 when the update happened so I have no way to complete it and unlock Grizz.

With the last update we got Mayor Grizz as a new companion. He requires 8 skylanders at level 12 to unlock. I already have 16 of my 22 skylanders at level 12, but he's still locked. I've force-closed the app and reopened it to no avail. I'm hoping that the next skylander that dings 12 (which is gonna be Spyro when he gets back from Dragon's Peak) will somehow trip the necessary parameter needed to qualify for the unlock. If he doesn't, I'm gonna be one sad panda.

I've already got an escalated support case for that exact issue. You are lucky, yours will probably work. Likely they have a hook in the code that triggers when a Skylander hits level 12. When Spyro hits 12 for you it should fire. ALL of mine are level 12. It is impossible for me to set off that trigger.

Please post either way if it works for you when Spyro reaches 12.

I just got a strange error when accessing the game that sais that there has been an issue loading my kingdom. All my progress has been lost. I play the ame with my six year old son who will be devastated! We had just unlocked the second last island and have 29 skylanders in play. To start again would be a nightmare. Is there any way of accessing a previous cloud save?

I have the exact same problem. I deleted the app and re downloaded it, logged in with activate and it restored progress, then it seemed to work for a while then bugged out again. Now even that doesnt work for me.
To say im devastated is an understatement. Its the gem purchases that cant be bought now that kills any thought of starting over.

I had/am having the same issue, since patch, constantly booted from game for doing numerous different things, log back in and last few minutes of game not saved. Then can't log in at all, getting the can't load kingdom message. On the phone with activision customer service last night got it working again by logging out of activate, going into settings and clearing history from safari, deleting and reinstalling. Game worked for a while then started same issue again. Seems as though there is something not working with activate...trouble loading, doesn't seem to be saving data reliably.

Thanks for the advice. I tried this and it worked fine. Didnt realise i needed to dump the safari history as well.
Unfortunately ive permanently lost eyebrawl and thumpback houses. That really really hurts but better than starting again at level 1 i suppose.

Hey Advisor Orville! Really cool that a dev is visiting these forums!! I always love it in online games when devs interact openly with the community.

A couple of suggestions:

- First and foremost, I wish there was a way for our work in the mobile games to impact our Skylanders' progress on the console games. Even if it's as simple as taking over the "Hero Level" stat from the soon-to-be-ending Skylanders Universe, I just want to feel like my time spent on the mobile apps is contributing to my figures. The coolest thing about Skylanders is how each figure's progress is stored on the figure itself, and I'd love for the mobile games to tie into that. That would make Lost Islands more than "just another farming game."

- Make the friend system more interactive somehow. I wish I had a specific idea, but I would love for the game to go beyond the current "gifts" and "invitations." Some mechanism to make me feel like I am really contributing to a friend's progress (and vice versa) would be nice. Something where I can open the game and get a smile on my face because there is visible evidence that a friend has visited and done something to help.

- Make it easier to keep track of quest objectives somehow. Again, I wish I had a better suggestion of how to do this - I just know that every time some trolls, sheep, etc. pop up I have to go through dozens of quests one by one trying to remember which Skylander had a quest to clear them.

- I think it would be neat if there was some benefit for having a "well organized" or "more habitable / good-looking / aesthetically pleasing" island. I know that would be difficult to gauge, but it would be neat if you could impact the Mogu's happiness based upon how much effort you put into making your islands look nice, which would give you some kind of bonus.

- Something like the Newsstand but for crops. It would be nice to be able to plant/harvest more easily.

- More types of crop fields / adventure balloons beyond the two currently available (regular or gem-bought). Other than getting the next community building, adding fields and balloons, and working towards unlocking the next island, I wish there were more things to work towards or upgrade.

- *** The other day I needed to rearrange my buildings and it can be incredibly tedious to move or sell roads in particular. Would be great if there was a "sell all roads" or "move all roads to inventory" option.

- As far as decorations, it would be cool if there was water (moats, rivers, ponds, etc.) to complement roads and other features.

- Again, my biggest comment is to somehow boost the social aspect of the game... More ways to interact with friends would be great.

Thanks and keep up the good work. Think outside the box and go beyond the current paradigm for these types of games and I'll keep playing!!

I have a bug/glitch. I got a Quest to send Legendary Trigger Happy on Adventures. However, "Goal" doesn't appear on any of the adventures on my ballons when I use him, and no matter where I send him, he never gets credit on that Quest. Any ideas?

Also, how does the game determine what you win in the well? I have won the max gold prize many times, sometimes multiple times in a row, but I almost never win gems. Also, my son has been playing for as long as I have, and he is desperate to win the special Pop Fizz. I won it within a few days, while he's still hoping.

Thanks.

Yeah, a farmhouse and farmer or something that could do crops in bulk would be sweet.

I wish the news stand was automatic. I thought it was when I blew 300 gems on Quigley, figuring I could farm XP while sleeping and at work. 300 gems just to save a few clicks seems like a gip. 300 gems to autofarm XP is a much better investment. That distinction should have been made clear in his description. I would have bought another shrine to get wish stones instead if I'd known.

Other than that, great game.

Also, I know several people had a problem when building the troll prison. No matter what I or my son or my dad tried to move or touch anything on the same island when it was building on each of our games, it grabbed or hit the prison. We had to move the prison to a different island to get anything done. Not a huge deal, but fixing that would be nice.

As described here, there is a bug with the "I am the Law Pt. 1" and "Mixmaster Haus" tasks, where they do not get completed even when the Troll Prison and Apothecary have been built.

Hopefully this can be fixed in a future update!

One of my quests 'Time to Upgrade' isn't updating either. I've placed two Outposts on my islands after receiving the quest but the game has only recognized one of them.

Also my Snow Globe House has been glitched for some time. I can still collect exp from it but it looks like large white square. Can this get fixed too please?

If you have enough gems already, you can unlock Ninjini in the game and it will refund you the gems once you get the actual figure.

How positive are you? Have you sucessfully had a gem refund? I bought a low gem cost item previously to test ths theory and it gave me gold instead. 150 gems is a lot to experiment on

Great idea if it will work.

I still think activision need to be careful about their timing. Lost islands is an extension of skylanders not the main game.

#148 Posted: 22:05:28 21/04/2013
It works, at least in the US version. I've bought three different Skylanders in the game. We later got the bluetooth portal, and when I put them on the portal, all my gems were refunded. Getting a refund on a Skylander is entirely different than selling back an in-game item like a house.

Yes, it works with Skylanders through the portal, and presumably with web codes but I haven't tried that. I've redeemed two Skylanders so far that we had already unlocked in the game. I'm planning to do the same thing with Ninijini since the toy is not available yet here in the UK either! Hope this helps smilie

Advisor_Orville-

Do you think we can bring back gems to the wishing well? It's the only way people like my kids will be able to get giant houses. They missed out on Ninjini's house and were so disappointed, and I see no way they'll get enough gems to get Swarm's either without winning gems at the well.
Thanks.
