Got a tip or trick of your own on creating creatures in Spore Hero? Post it here!

Why do they keep using all this Spore Hero stuff for SporeDay? I'm tired of hearing about all the wonderful features that this great new game has! When are they going to release another patch or something?

I think this is unneeded -.-

You should better make patches.

You don't need patches for Spore Hero. It's a Wii game, and there's no server to connect to, and you don't log in to anything, so there's no need for patches. Spore Hero is a great game.

They meant Core Spore. There are still a load of bugs and things that need to be fixed.

The problem is Maxis can't churn out patches on a dime. However they can find better Sporedays than this. Even those interviews (which always end up swamped with 10 pages of "WERE'S DA WATER STAGE????" and two pages of "OMG SHUDAP ABOUT AQUATIC STAGE NOOB!!!" posts) are better than this.

As I said in the Sporeday thread in GD, there are instruction booklets for a reason. Even though they do make good coasters, they're designed to tell you the controls.

IK swear this beter lead up to something great, we have been getting interviews and spore hero junk for the last month or so. Anyways, could you do SOMETHING about bodies, I can't make my humanoids well with any of those body shapes. Plus I want to add or subtract arm segments because of my own work. I know you can't fix it but at least keep it in mind for the next game.

Finally, the last game is about ot come out so after this spore hero nonsense we will have creature keeper nonsense.

Funny how Maxis can re-type instruction booklets and call it help, but if one of us did it, it would be deleted as spam.
