I can't wait for spore: Galactic Adventures!

if they did sign a confidentiality agreement then thank God Didzo didnt get chosen as well. he'd blow the whole thing wide open and somehow involve his ego in it......

It has already been said in the GA community interview that you can fit about 100 creations in an adventure, depending on the complexity of the creations. Its just as difficult to describe as the complexity meter in any other spore editor. You'll have to get a feel for it when you play to get a real perspective on what it means in terms of use. i'm guessing for the average adventure, you should have plenty of complexity left.

My only concern is that plants That are already on the planet use up 0.64% of the complexity meter per plant, because, then around 75% of the complexity meter will be... guess what... plants...

The players are here right now creating adventures! They've been visiting for a two day Adventure Camp event, and are soon going to be wrapping up and showing off their adventures to the Maxis team!

We wish we could have invited all of you, but I'm sure they'll have lots of info to report back, and we'll ask them to share their experiences with everyone.

Thems lucky demons thems! Which also reminds me... I wanna know about some of the Adventure Objects, some being maybe 20 of the some 1500... They should anwser this question too... What are the objectives? like the ones about Kill 10 *insert creature here*, and all of the diffrent objectives possible... and... WOOHOO GALACTIC ADVENTURES IS AWESOME. BTW, if you read this in maybe 2 days after that Adventure Thing were the demo it and you went on it, I need to know about thems freedoms, like how unique an adventure can be, and all those special settings of Creature AI, like the SUPER DUPER AI UI thing,and how much the Plants add to the Complexity Meter, and how big can you make a creature and how much health can you give them and about their sphere of awareness and all that stuff. (Ack, jail word)

Uhhuh, yeah I am NeoCell. I've actually been wanting to change it like in 2008 to NeoAdmiral.

I'm confused on what this thread is about?

SPORE!!!!!!!!!!!! crap. (spore is a censor word if you are wondering why i rambled that out)

Just came back (overnight flight, jetlag) so I will post more extensively later. But briefly: it was tons of fun, great meeting everyone (players and devs), the studio space is awesome; GA is HUGE, I think we all pretty much agreed that its way more than what the Q&A makes it sound like; it's quite complex... out of all of us goofing around with it for two days, I think only 2 or 3 people managed to complete their missions, the rest of us pretty much completed the set up (terrain, scenes, props) but were wrestling with the AI and triggers; my personal favorite things were the AMAZING visual and sound effects (makes the game feel so much more alive). Captain editor is cool, all the new parts are pretty well detailed, I'm still lukewarm about the fact that now all outfit pieces stack (meaning that things like patterns and using two pieces one inside the other to create a different look are no longer going to be possible) but the devs promised to look into toggling the stacking on and off. One great new feature tho is that you can now sink some of the captain parts inside the base which allows you to place a helm piece for example actually on the head versus it sitting like a hump on top. And.... gosh... I'm sure I'm missing a ton of stuff. There is lineage now... meaning the original creator of a post GA released creation/mission will always be displayed, and the most recent person who edited the creation/mission will come after, and last the person whose the current edit belongs to. So that pretty much does away with the thieves. Cee has a bunch of pics she took, I'm sure she'll be posting them soon. Overall GA looks very very promising and I do anticipate that most people will be playing missions other than creating them, as that process looks quite involved and time consuming, if you really wanna make something cool. But... that means that Spore if finally going to feel much more like a game, and less like a bunch of editors.

Nice little report! Im sure I'll get more details from u later

Yay, Your finally back mass!!!! =D

So, the question on everyone's mind is how the adventure complexity meter.......feels. The meter's in spore are difficult to describe number wise because of the vast number of variables involved. Do you feel as if it has more than enough room for the most elaborate of missions, or do things quickly become....tight?
