darkSpyro

I got Voodood, Gill Grunt, and Drobot.

And I only like Drobot...

Go to Browse at your Lair on the Portal of Power and you can rent a Skylander you don't have for 30 minutes.

What? They give you a code and you use it in the actual game (console, PC, 3DS, etc) to play the character for a short time? If so, that's incredible.

Dark, you're starting to scare me.

EDIT: Someone else is using my username (CAV)! How dare they!

How is someone able to rename themselves? I'm Portal Master #1503, and everyone I've seen in game is PM #something. Is there a way you can change your display name?

No idea. I simply put in CAV at the sign up sheet, and it told me that someone else was using it.

No they let you play as the Skylander for 30 minutes.

Found a scroll about a certain undead dragon:


I seem to get the most coins from the sheep herding minigame, even though I have a hard time getting the black and gold sheep.
Also Angry Bird type level "the corner store" is hard, can't seem to kill the bottom two guys, but it's funny when the top part of the tower just sits there wobbling for several minutes until it collapses...

In the online game only?

^ Yes.

You can sign up, but that's all you can do, at least until you get the game; it asks for the Portal to be plugged in. Still, I made an account. Name's FyreDragon

^Speaking of her, I took a screenshot from that video Dark linked a while back about the 3DS version:

Dammit......

First question: what is this a free computer skylanders game, and where did you find it.
Second question: it seems to be fun, how is the gameplay?

My connection is pretty bad today, but every time I log back on, it seems like all of my stuff restarts. Like, the lair/bridge upgrades I bought show as "owned" but I can't switch bask to them.
They display when I preview them, but otherwise they look like the default fixtures.
I tried buying a new bridge, and it made the purchase sound but my coins and the bridge didn't change.

Overall it looks neat, they just really need to iron out the bugs.

For some reason it wont let me log in. Some sort of error. This sucks.

Why don't you try shutting down again?

remember people, its just beta yet, so it wont work properly.

man, this game is cute

I hope they manage to fix all of the bugs...

Upgraded my skyland, can't interact with anything but NPCs... when I reload or travel and and forth/etc, I either have my old skyland or the new one (but still can't interact).
It seems like I can't interact with objects on the mainland now either.

Do they have a hidden bug report forum anywhere?

They have one here: http://universe.skylanders.com/support

Man, those guys are gonna have their hands full with all the bugs

Thanks :3

And I just figured out how to fix it - you have to customize the stone circle in the center.
But that's very poorly explained so I sent them a report anyway.

Yay, I've got the highscore for the Treasure Hunt with 2500 points!

Ok I just got on. Anything else to do on here besides mini games?

heh, I don't think so...

anyway to attack the sheep? lol

I tried, trust me

any mini games where i can just fight? as my skylander?

I don't think so...but in the future they might add new games like that. But I guess they want you to get the actual game to fight.

I rented dark spyro likes hours ago and i still have him lol

How long are they supposed to last? >w<

lol not sure. but he is amazing

I'll have to rent him when I have enough coins, then. The first one I rented was Chop Chop for some reason.

I think the timer only ticks down when you're playing as them, outside of minigames.

They only last for 30 minutes. Not really worth spending coins on, IMO.

Hmm, maybe...
Whenever I go to the Main Island thingy (or whatever it's called) There are never plants for the element of my skylander >.< It's so annoying...

Really? The load screen when it takes me to "My Lair" keeps getting stuck partway through. It also tells me something like "The bar in the right hand corner indicates the status of your portal of power. Is it plugged in?". I assumed that meant I needed the Portal Of Power to play Skylanders Universe.

well,I try click new player but I can't.

Strange, that matches the official guide for her bio perfectly, except

Could be that "CAV" is too short so you're not allowed to use it. I'm riverhippo, but there's no way anyone will recognize me if I'm 1503. I hope they update it so that users are names and not numbers in the online community. It almost makes interacting worthless when you don't know who they are.

^If it was too short, it would tell me so. It just rather told me that someone else was using it.

Eh, keeps telling me my code for Spyro is invalid - Or rather, that he's 'not a Magic Skylander'. Don't suppose anyone knows if you can connect the PS3/3DS Portals to the PC at all? All it downloaded was a driver for the 360 version.

It said it was the 360 version to me, but I ran to programme then plugged in my 3DS portal and all worked out expect some times the game bugs and I need to refresh the page to see all the new skylanders I added

God, when i try to play the tutorial with Gill Grunt, Eon says asll the time "What are you waiting for? Destroy all this and that (can't remember what they were..)!" even when i've already destroyed them. -.-'

man, this has alot of bugs...

Yeah, but I guess it's just opened and it's in Beta, so hopefully they'll iron them out soon.

Hmm, everytime i try to go to my skylands it keeps taking me back to my lair
