I've not tried any of mine yet but has anybody tried the expansion packs from other games?
I wonder what happens with the oldest, (DLC) and newer (Tower of Time) etc when you put them in Trap Team.

I know this has been discussed before but I would like confirmation for sure now it's out.
At some point I will try my ones but don't have them handy and the kids are in the way right now

they all make different damaging projectiles fall from the sky, themed on the particular level item. pirate seas drops canon balls, dark light crypt drops skulls etc.

they are just damaging items, they don't open a new level like they did in the past games.

That's sad. I hoped at least the Swap Force ones would be kept. Never mind eh.

I'm guessing that was going to be rather difficult to do signs they were built by different developers. I would expect that t Skylanders 5 wouldn't do anything with the previous advendture packs either for the same reason.

the sf adventure packs can be easily put in the skylanders5 game if vv wants to... and i hope they do so. after all tfb did this with their second game and sf was vv's first. and now skylanders5 is vv's second game...

They need to do more with the previous expansions. It doesn't have to be a full level or anything but a mini game or something would be nice. As magic items they are hardly any use.

they could have them pop up in the hub after you put them on the portal. the game code is already done and it is not harry potter magic after all.

That would be a really nice addiction, to the Academy!
The Tower of Time and Sheep Weck Island's portal would fit paricularly well.

Now, did somebody said "patches"...?

I would love it if the game pieces were added to the hub. Skylands Academy was awesome because it was constantly growing and adding new decorations. Having the Darklight Crypt floating on its own island in the background would be a really pretty touch, the same with the other play pieces.

One thing I always liked about adding the level expansion pieces to the game was those pieces being added to the hub, so when the Nightmare Express and Mirror of Mystery show up on those tiny podiums was such a disappointment. Imagine if putting down the Nightmare Express adds a cool looking floating train track around the Academy, with the Express waiting at the dock for you to ride it! Awesome.

And the idea of them unlocking a minigame is a cool touch too. Something that just gives you a nice chunk of money, but nothing integral to completion. And they'd have to keep their usefulness as a magic item nuke too, just so that having spent money on it doesn't feel like such a big waste after one game.

Oh, that's a shame...

I haven't put my Nightmare Express on the Portal, yet, but I was really hoping something along those lines would have happened...

Oh, well.
