As the title says, do I need the base game for this?

Do i need to buy the physical toys to play this game? i remember the first infinity game had toys that would give you content when you bought them. If i can play the whole games content without paying for the toys then I might buy this game, just need the information about the toys...

I've installed the game but when it launches I can only hear the game, nothing happens on screen, i can still go on my desktop and go into my files but the game is still running in the background & I cant interact with it at all. Has anyone had a similar experience? If so any advise on how to fix it would be appreciated....

Please anyone know if multiplayer will be aviable soon?

verify doesn't fix anything. so i need to download a redist of a specific directx version or something?
