Just wondering
Like after a while can u go back to battle brawl for challenges and not the story level

well...I did get a challenge from Tessa that took me to Battle Brawl, but other than that there's no official arena mode this time

Welp. That sucks

Yeah it was the one thing I wanted back and there's really just nothing like it. It's so strange that one of the best (if not the best) story modes in the franchise has next to nothing to do end game. If you're not into the racing that is. If you are you should be good. If not than this entry has the weakest end game of them all.

Agreed...I HATE the racing in this game, and I also never liked Skystones ( in any form ) so that cuts into any endgame enjoyment I could have as well I miss the arena challenges ( except the cheap "don't get hit" ones ), the element gates, the villains, feats of strength and adventure pack levels Hopefully next year's game's content will be more traditional with a few new elements that don't take away from the classic gameplay aspects that make Skylanders, well, Skylanders. The final boss in Superchargers is the worst boss in the franchise too....

Seriously. THERE IS NO ARENA MODE OR KDC should be written somewhere on the box. I hope the people who care figure this out before they buy the game like I did. I am so disappoint. The silliest thing is, you know the Arenas and KDC would take so much less dev time but have so much more replay value than the story levels. Such a poor decision. Who is the decider at VV? I'd like a word. Lol.

To be fair , adding a Kaos doom challenge into this game would be pretty pointless . There's only 10 unique characters you can't play in TT , 20 if you get the reposes. It's really not worth making the exact same thing just so those characters can do it . Same with the battle arena.

just go play TT if you don't like this game.

Yeah, I'm very dissapointed not having arena mode this time, netiher PvP, hopefully they will get fixed next time.

It's not the Kaos Doom Challenge, but the Brock/survival arena challenges that people want. The past few games have had unique survival arenas with unique enemy characters attacking from that given game...definitely not a rinse and repeat type of situation. I'm not sure what you mean by "the exact same thing." Besides, there are some fans out there who really hope upon hope that they'll one day get a congratulatory muffin basket from Brock!

It has been a staple on every single release...until now.

While none of those games had racing. The last two games also didn't have heroic Challanges and those got brought back (in a different way, but still). The first release was all PvP and trap team was all PvE.

Let's not act like the deck hasn't been dealt in different ways in every game. I want it to return in more then just a storyline level (though I have to admit, it's neat how they slipped an arena fight into a game without an arena.

The racing mode in this game sucks... i want arena battles :/

Just a thought, we had a "late surprise" with light and dark elements, which are, as expected, in the center of this new game
Can we expect a surpise this year with maybe a battle expansion?

I know it's very very optimistic, and they put "?" to clarify the surprise in TT, but I hardly imagine there's only 2 racing packs for adding content for SCC.

I don't necessarily need to be balanced. My statement is still factual.

Yet combined with rants misleading. Battle Arena has not been consistent with what it contained, so the contents within that mode are NOT staple.

I'll miss being able to try out my new Skylanders in arena challenges, I mean come on, Vicarious Visions, you could've imported some old ones if you don't feel like making new ones. let's hope toys for bob makes up for it in Skylanders 6.

I still like this game but I can't help but wonder why they gutted extra features (anything outside of story mode) in Super Chargers in favor of the racing. That's a huge gamble on their part. To be honest the racing component is so polished it really could have been it's own game. By taking away from what could have been the best Skylander game and making a stellar racing game, they kind of gimped both. I'm sure there are a lot of racing fans that won't pick this up because it's packed with a full fledged adventure game. I'm also sure there are people picking this up for a pure Skylanders experience that don't give a hoot about racing games. That's the real tragedy here. They tried to bungle two different markets/players to please more than one demographic and will end up pleasing next to no one. It's kind of sad really. They Skylanders and vehicles could have worked in both games but racing would be a stand alone experience. We could have had vehicular and on foot battle arenas, challenges, heroics, etc.

With the introduction of online multiplayer you'd think that they'd have an online arena mode.

Next time I guess...

No one is ranting. I didn't specify a feature to make it this or that. Plain and simple...we had the option to fight somewhere outside of story mode....until now. As in from the main menu.
