New Spore Patch with Free Creature Parts!

Written on: November 13, 2008 by xDreamache



We have just received an email from Maxis Cactus letting all of the fansite owners know of a new spore patch that's "just around the corner" with 24 new exosekeleten limbs (for free).  Here is the paste of the email that we and other fansite owners have received.

"Hey everyone,

A new Spore patch is just around the corner! 

We’ve heard your requests for more parts, and we’ll be releasing 24 new exoskeleton limbs for free in this patch!  This includes 12 new arms and 12 new legs to make your creations creep and crawl along. 

We’ve rendered out five high res creatures that use these parts in case you’d like to post the news on your sites early:

You’ll also see some other parts here that you may not recognize - we wanted to give you an exclusive peek at some of the new content to be available in the upcoming Creepy & Cute parts pack. 

Check back to http://www.spore.com/patch soon to get the patch notes and more details about the free limbs we’ll be offering!

Ugh, free parts are nice, but that'll only make me run the game long enough to update. I couln't give a rat's a$$ about insectile arms and legs.

THE FREE PATCH IS HERE!!!!--- http://spore.infinitesims.com/index.php

Raydark, i think the patch is only giving out free legs and arms, no add-ons, i think. thats what it says though?!

6. Raydark - Nov 17, 2008 09:01 AM

Woooo, more horns for dragons, haha. More parts for better creatures, i guess.

Good!!!

It just evades my understanding why there is a parts pack at all. If they can have a parts pack so soon and a free patch with more legs and parts so soon all those parts had to originally be in the game. Besides what good do these free parts do I already can make legs better then anything that is in that patch.

Might get me back into Spore... For a couple of hours.

They look pretty nice, but I have Halo 3 and an Xbox 360 now so I don't care anymore. Glad to see an update though.

12. Mystify - Nov 13, 2008 06:20 PM

awesome! I've wanted exoskelton parts! Good to hear from you again xDreamache

13. dadltondmd - Nov 13, 2008 04:20 PM

awesome, I'm looking forward to that and thumbs up for making it free maxis =D

14. lucky711 - Nov 13, 2008 04:08 PM

Great!! :D and i agree fully with wat Lad16 said!! i would love for them to just upgrade the game ever like 4 weeks with a couple new parts and addition to new gameplay! I really hope thry do that!! :D

15. jabberwock xeno - Nov 13, 2008 03:20 PM

awesome!!

16. Obsidian - Nov 13, 2008 03:02 PM

Sweet. It's awesome that they haven't forgotten about us cheap-asses.

17. Dr. Kilory - Nov 13, 2008 02:51 PM

Interesting, perhaps we could send Maxis a letter of things they should improve. I bet they would listen to the #1 fansite of their game.

18. strangeguy - Nov 13, 2008 02:47 PM

Sweet, Now we can Make Insect-like species.

19. xNo Name - Nov 13, 2008 02:45 PM

@ Dreamache Righting the wrong would be fixing the gameplay, not giving us more parts. Sure, free parts are nice, but we want gameplay that's more complex than ''hurr durr, go ALL THE WAY to the other side of the galaxy to kill 3 creatures.''. I don't think that's to much to ask for.

20. xDreamache - Nov 13, 2008 02:18 PM

xNo Name: they're trying to "right" the "wrong" :/

21. DespisedBeing - Nov 13, 2008 02:10 PM

I hope that this new patch fixes the things they broke such as the graphics; otherwise I'm just never going to patch my game ever since they never worked on mine nor my friend's computers. I also agree with xNo Name.

22. lad16 - Nov 13, 2008 02:00 PM

i think that, theoretically, they would make more money updating the game with free parts every couple of months than they would selling expansion packs. i know quite a few people who would buy the game if it had more free parts...

23. xNo Name - Nov 13, 2008 01:48 PM

What i can't understand is- if they can give us free parts in a patch- then why is there a parts pack for $20? Seriously, like, what the hell?
