Description

Now to part 2 of our Q a A with Maxis for Spore's Galactic Adventures;...7) How did you come up with the idea for G.A.?
Answer; I think every game has its own story. GA?s started as a bullet point along with other ideas. We always wanted to give people a movie maker, and more power to make machinima with their creations. At some point we took a closer look at that feature and said, ?You know what, that could be and expansion in itself.? It took off from there. 8) How fun a exciting was it for the team in making G.A.?
GA was truly a team effort. Everyone contributed to the design and
execution of the game. The energy on the team was unbelievable, because everyone believed in the product and what it could be. Just being part of that experience was thrilling. 9) Did you think sporians would be this excited about G.A.?
As a developer you always ask yourself that question. GA took a while to manifest itself into the game you see today. During the early months those questions definitely ran through our minds. However, as features started coming on line and we were able to create our own adventures, it was clear right away, this thing is fun! Playing adventures are fun, creating adventures are fun and you can easily lose track of time in a play session. I often found myself driving home after a long day, thinking about the adventure I was working on and what I wanted to do next. Once you find yourself wrapped up in your own game, you know others are going to dig it. 10) Is it possible to fill certain characters roles in an adventure with random content from the sporepedia so that each time your play an adventure some of the characters are different. This would improve the replay value of an adventure....Answer; ok within your own misssions it is possible to make any and all changes and it would still be of your own making by simply reuploading. as in downloaded missions, they can be edited but would have to be reuploaded and would be auto tagged as an offspring giving credit to the original creator. As for captains, if it is a set mission using a captain designated by the creator, then you cannot change that at all....11) Can we get a list of the captain parts? Answer; I can honestly say that my favorite new part is by far the the (I think it is either the generator or the shield generator) anyways this has the absolute coolest animation ever. Like a force field of electrical currents which kind of resembles lightning, simply awesome. But here is the list... Weapons
* Claws - Claw like gloves worn on the creature. Can be used to attack in a similar way to the strike ability. The Claws seem to have a resemblance to Wolverine from the X-men... * Energy Blade - A sword like energy weapon used to inflict damage by cutting and striking targets (A reference to the lightsaber from the Star Wars saga)
* Plasma Pulser - A gun like weapon that shoots a blast of energy. Similar to the spit ability.
* Missile Launcher - Likely a homing missile that shoots forward and explodes on contact with the target...* Poison Blade - Similar to Energy Blade. Can poison the target.
* Summon Swarm - Summons a swarm of insects to chase the target away. Similar to the Bee animation in the Creepy and Cute test drive, another Spore Expansion pack.
* Freeze - Freezes the target.
* Mind Meld - Likely a weapon that enables psychic abilities...Other Tools
* Shield Generator - Generates a shield around the user. Protects from enemy attacks. * Stealth - Turns user invisible. Similar to sneak ability.
* Jet Pack - Allows continued Jumping and aerial movement. Similar to the jump and glide ability. Flying too high will have lethal consequences on the avatar. * Royal Charm - Charms the leader of the targeted group. Like an easier way to socialize with alpha creatures. Similar to the Charm ability in the Spore creature stage.* Disco Ball - Charms multiple targets for social use. Go to comment for remainder please...
