I have only played the first chapter of Swap Force. The level design seemed poor. I had the difficulty on medium, but near the end i changed it to hard. One of the problems for the Wii U game was that they got rid of motion! So far, there is no motion whatsoever! And even the cannon shooting game doesn't use the pointer. I didn't even like that game in the first two games. Now i don't like it even more. And I'm not sure about the jumping mechanic either. It messed up the controls i was used too. So far, I like the Giants game the best. What do you guys feel about the game?

It took me two days to get used to the controls.It really isn't that bad of a game once you get used to all the differences.The chapters are also good since they provide checkpoints so you can take a break from them,they are longer which makes up for the lack of chapters and that fact you can't go to previous adventure pack levels.

Wow! you cant play the new adventure packs! Is it because of the jumping? I noticed the chapters are longer.

I got it right away and this game has WAY better level design than Giants and slightly worse than the original. I love the new controls.

I played the second level and it was better. I think it still could improve a little bit though. The third level should be better like you said!

When has the first level of any skylanders game been superb?

I think the game got better around level 3

My favourite level would be either 3 or 15 (I'd say it was "easily 15", but the part where
there were two Mineminers attacking at once at the end

just felt like a way to add a bit of cheap difficulty and is almost too difficult to handle with a single Skylander- even one elementally powerful in that area. However, I still like the level a lot, overall, for the darker mood it sets than most of the other ones [though it's still not as dark as some of the things in Giants, really])

Ive found swapforces gameplay to be soo much better than the previous games - jumping has made this game into a proper platformer.

difficulty is good so far, I'm playing on hard and enjoying it, looking forward to nightmare! (currently about halfway through the game)

I played Chapter 3 and I was impressed!

I liked how that fish guy was saying "When im done talking, im done talking. i just get my point and im done. thats all i do. you wont hear a peep out of me." The boat ride itself was amazing. I still didnt like how the fishing games didnt use motion... but the level design was amazing. it was just a great level


Im officially impressed!

And I think im getting used to the controls!

Glad you enjoyed level 3. And as for challenge, I just beat nightmare mode and wow was it tough in spots. Good thing I had a nice collection of 'landers ready.

Its good to have a lot of skylnaders so you wont get game over. It was tough in some spots so far for me on hard mode! Nightmare mode sounds really hard. but i think i can do it!

Some levels took me about 5 characters to beat. although I didn't use the BEST figure for the job at times. Other times I'd just get trapped by enemies in a corner...NOT GOOD haha
