Disney Infinity 3.0 Twitch Livestream Question Thread

Postby OpossumGuy » Wed May 06, 2015 6:49 pm

If Sheriff doesn't approve, feel free to lock, but this seemed like a common request. :P

Post your questions here! During the Livestream, we can try to get them answered.

^ edit: SHERIFF APPROVED

OpossumGuy Edit: Thanks Sheriff!

And now with the Sheriff's blessing, here is where we'll keep the most common or most informative questions! (I'll be updating this as more questions come in. Some can't be asked [such as asking whether or not specific characters will make it or things like that], but this will aim to be as objectively informative as possible).

Frequently Asked Questions:


Character-Related Questions (see above for disclaimer) :
1) Are the Disney Originals we know of now (Inside Out cast, Tron characters, Mickey and Minnie, Olaf, and Mulan) the only ones in the game, or are there more in store?

2) When stated in GameInformer that this iteration will be over 100 characters strong, was this including figures such as the Crystal/Infinity variants and Black Suit Spider Man?

3) In the past, it has been stated that quadruped characters and characters that rely on water wouldn't be playable due to technical issues. Is this issue still existent? [color=#FF4040]ANSWERED! - No quadrupeds or water planned.[/color]

4) Will the 2.0 Avengers characters be usable in the new Marvel playset?

5) Will Sam and Quorra be backwards compatible with 2.0, similar to how Crystal Mickey Mouse is with 1.0? ANSWERED! - No backwards compatibility for 3.0 figures

6) How diverse and in-depth is the lightsaber combat? PARTIALLY ANSWERED! - Throughout, they were saying that the depth of the combat was deep enough that the combat system is incompatible with 2.0, so it's reasonable to assume it's pretty deep.

7) What are Mickey and Minnie's Super Moves? Could you detail these more than what was shown on the community site's release? Answered! Mickey's summons his friends, while Minnie uses a purse in an attack, though it's unclear if this is her super.


Gameplay-Related Questions:
1) Will 1.0 characters be brought up to the level of 2.0 and 3.0 characters? Will there be super moves for them, and unique skill trees? Will some have more movement options (such as Syndrome's flight or Ralph's wall crawl)? ANSWERED! - This is currently NOT PLANNED. HOWEVER, if we make some noise, this can change.

2) Will certain 1.0 characters be "decloned" in order to have more gameplay diversity, such as the Pirates of the Caribbean and Toy Story characters? ANSWERED! - See above.

3) Are "Toy Box Expansion Games" the same type of content as the Toy Box games from 2.0? Are there any major differences between the two?
ANSWERED! - For clarification, TBEGs and TBGs are the same type of thing.

4) Will character-specific adventures be making a return? If not, will there be a new alternative?

5) May we see the re-addition of goo?

6) Are there any new Creativitoys? What are some of their functionalities? ANSWERED! Not much to say, other than there are "a bunch" of new ones, but they'll be covering this more in depth when certain team members are available.

7) Could we possibly see swimming/water mechanics in this game? ANSWERED! - Currently not planned.

8) How does enemy AI compare to previous versions? Will there be things like Boss Enemies?

9) Is there a possibility of 4-player local co-op this time around, by using two bases? ALLUDED TO! They said two player local/playsets at one point when talking about online, so this seems to stay at 2 local.

Marketing Questions:
1) Will there be any retailer-specific pre-order bonuses?

2) What does the release time frame look like? Will this be a fall release as per the norm? PARTIALLY ANSWERED! - At the time, they can't talk much, but the December 31st is a placeholder.

3) Will there be a Collector's Edition this time around? No Comment at this time.

4) Will there be officially licensed Power Disc storage binders this time around? ALLUDED TO! A Power Disc centered stream has been confirmed.

5) How will the Power Disc four packs be packaged? What are some themes we could see? What would the price look like? See question four

6) Will exclusive content be available outside of the United States?

7) Will older Power Discs be re-released in the non-blind packs, or will they remain exclusive to blind packs? See question four

New Features Questions:
1) Can you share any more details on the Kart Racing aspects of the game? How expansive are the track and vehicle lists? Can these be recreated in the Toy Box for custom tracks? - ANSWERED! Nothing was said of Toy Box recreation, but all vehicles can be used, there are "a bunch" of tracks.

2) Are there additional details to share about the Farming mode? What are some of the time frames for crop growth? Will there be micro-transactions like other, similar farming simulators?

Online Questions:
1) How many players are supported with online multiplayer at once? ANSWERED! Four player online

Production Questions:
1) In addition to what we know, what other companies played a part in creating the game? With Studio Gogo and Ninja Theory having roles, were there any others that did? Would there be any you'd be interested in working with? MOSTLY ANSWERED! John couldn't say the last part in fear of something slipping, but the Avengers playset also has a guest developer.

2) Will there be a Mac OS X version produced?

Do you count the crystals and varients when you say that by the end of 3.0, there will be over 100 playable characters?

Will there be more Disney Originals than we know of?


If not in 3.0, do you see 4.0 having water mechanics and four legged characters?

Could you possibly consider a Disney WORLD Project for 3.0, maybe because of the inclusion of possible new park toys? ;)

We should consolidate the most popular questions, and then update them in the OP if they get answered on Friday.

Mine is: has online multiplayer been upgraded to 6 player?

Are more classic Disney elements being considered?



Also how does the team approach the power discs, like how do you decide them ?

When will 3.0 be released?
Have you learnt from your mistake of the digital exclusives?
Can we have more details on the Kart Racing toy box game?
When will the next character or playset announcements be?
Will 1.0 characters get proper unique new abilities?
Is online play upgraded to 6 players in one toy box?
Will there be more Disney Originals announced for 3.0 or are we only getting the Disney Originals we've seen so far?

^^Keep in mind that character-specific questions most definitely won't be answered.

On any character specific question, the best answer you will get is,
"The possibilites are infinite! Those would be great characters in Disney Infinity!"

And I think it might be rude to ask about the digital exclusives. They have proven to learn from that as they gave us Tron physicals for 3.0. I doubt they'd want another Trongate situation.

Will 1.0 characters be improved so they are each individually on the same level playing field(unique non-shared individual powers & upgrades) as 2.0 & 3.0 characters? Examples: Syndrome: Flight. Ralph: Wall Crawl. Barbossa: Monkey & Apples. Buzz Lightyear: Laser.
