Bumpity bump bump....

thank you!


this has been up for some time now... they have probably seen it...

c´mon... those changes are basic.... it´d be so simple for the devs to pull it off... it only requires some rule changes... no adding new content or anything that requires a major re-programming


WE URGE YOU, MAXIS!! PLEASE!! WE HAVE WAITED OVER 3 YEARS FOR THIS GAME!! PLEASE HAVE COMPASSION FOR OUR UNDYING PATIENCE...

WE`VE NOT GIVEN UP!

support the campaign! it´s the only way we can make it happen!

Some small suggestions (Sorry if they've been said already) :

. Make body shape and leg design affect movement please.
. I really like the idea having to do with using DNA points to upgrade stats. This allows more creativity.

I've read most of this, and what you guys are doing is great! I could definitely make a much longer list than this, but I've already seen most of the things I would ask for. This game really got me hooked the first time I saw it, and I'd love to see some nice innovations made. Good greif, please read this thread Maxis! Listen to these awesome people and their ideas!

If their was a game similar to Spore, and not individual stages, PLEASE tell me, or stop whining.

this is NOT whining... whining would be if we went on like: "ohh... this game sux! fix it now!"...


that´s NOT what we´re doing here!


this is a campaign to put forward a list of suggestions compiled from the thoughts of various players who fundamentally LOVE the game, but also see the immense potential yet untapped in it...

i spent a lot of time researching these forums and gathering opinions on several aspects of gameplay in order to create a straightforward list of changes that could make the game LOTS more enjoyable for everyone

this is DEFINATELY NOT whining....

it is, in fact, the very opposite of it... the goal of the CAMPAIGN TO MAKE SPORE BETTER is to take the many, usually agressive complaints and gripes, and turn them into something constructive, something Maxis can actually work with...

indeed... in the end, i agree when you say "stop whining", there are so many constructive ways to ask for a better game... whining is not one of them, and this is not whining


keep the campaign alive! it needs you!!

This is constructive criticisim and FAR the best thing we can do. Although I doubt these changes will happen...we can only hope You got my support
And one thing I'd love to see:
Buy space stations near gas giants. Maybe they could be a defensive base for the system, maybe something else, but make the wonderful gas giants more useful than just watch it
Oh and another thing which always annoyed me is that when you enter space phase, the spice geysers get MUCH bigger, which REALLY annoys me, since it makes the planet look much smaller, very strange and generally less nice to watch

if this would all be added, it would make spore 20 times as good as it is , i like all the ideas...
it would also be cool to get the underwater fase back, it would add a ot of fun playing underwater and in land domes XD

MR.WRIGHT READ THIS TOPIC PLEASE =Dand please don't place it in 100 expansion packs costing 30 bucks a piece -.-

Just poppin in to say I fully support this topic.

WANT

\Can we change "assimetry" to asymmetry?

Here's some you missed.


1. Creature stage ought much more diverse, allowing you to evolve into diffrent catigories of animals. For instance, when you leave the water you can choose to start as an amphibian or a small fish. Over time you would advance to more advance creatures such as reptiles, mammals, birds, and larger aquatic beings. Whatever you where in creature would of course carry over to all future stages. So if you became sentient underwater, you would build underwater tribes, cities, and colonies. If you were a bird, you would have said structures hanging from cliffs, on top of mountains, or floating in mid air.

2. Complexity limits should be much higher. We shouldn't have to cheat to get a three mouthed creature covered in head to toe with eyes. Preferably, they should do away with complexity all together and simply make a limit on how many abilities you can have and how strong they can be. So let's say you made a creature with level five in all combat stats and level one in all social. Now let's say you've added enough parts to said creater that normaly you would be unable to add anymore. But with a stat limit instead of a complexity one, you can add as many parts as you like as long as once you are at certain point you don't add anything that would add new abilities or advance existing ones. And parts that don't add anything at all to stats (Which there should be more of) would be able to be added ad infinitum.

3. Every planet needs to be considerably larger. After all, can you walk around the equator in two minutes? I think not.

4. There ought to be two stages in the space between tribe and city. After all, in real history did we go from rock weapons to vehicles in one step? No. These stages would be Castle and Modern. In castle you would (Obviously) Command forces from the middle ages and would control the lands you conquered in tribe. In modern you would go from gunpowder to nukes. This way, once you started civ you would have more than one city.

* on crature editor, change the way stats are accumulated, instead of different parts adding higher stats, a part just unlocks the ability, in which you can later invest DNA points to upgrade, regardless of what the part looks like on your creature... DNA points could be used to become simply larger and therefore, mightier... instead of that happening as a result of growing smarter

My god man, I love you for saying that. That is one of the main reasons that Spore isn't the greatest game ever. They make you focus on playing, and not creating.

Amen to everything on that first post. If EA comes through with everything you said, Spore will rock.
If not... -_-

Here are some of my ideas for making the game better (copied from my post on the "Spore Space Adventures Official Feedback Thread"):

more in depth terraforming

the ability to interact with other creatures while out of your spacecraft

the ability to get into a vehicle while out of your spacecraft

more NPC-player interaction (ie. the ability to demand money from other species, the ability to start a war with other species without attacking first, the ability to ask another species for help)

more stuff related to <SPOILER>Steve<SPOILER>

And that's just the beginning of my demands.

Sentient Reservations

If we have “Indian Reservations” in RL, then why don’t we have “Sentient Reservations” for any sentient of the Tribal Stage? (and perhaps Civilizations as well?) We already have Wildlife sanctuaries for creatures in the, *ahem,* “Creature” stage, so right now it’s unfair that higher forms of life do not get to have anything set aside for them.

We could abduct all Tribal sentients from the planet we want, then destroy their tribe villages (if not somehow preserve them as museum exhibits), and designate a planet the “Reservation Planet” (preferably a red-spiced one.) Then place a “Tribal Reservation Pak” before beaming these sentients down so that they don’t just make a campfire and die as soon as we fly off. Then their civilization continues as before.

If we get to do the same for the Civs, the Civ Reservation Pak should be considerably more expensive than the Tribe Pak, and if placed on the same planet as a Tribal Reservation, only be allowed to get placed on a different continent.

Then thanks to that planet being an empire-owned reservation, we should still be able to colonize the other planets in the same system.

I clicked that link and just spent the past half hour playing that! Ha! It was more fun than Spore.
