Darkspore Expansion packs and Sequels

[Fungeorges]

I was Thinking the Other Day that Darkspore has the power and plot to continue the history with an Expansion pack or a Sequel so Why don't you post your ideas here? Mine is like this:

Type: Expansion pack

Name: Darkspore, The Rise of the Empire

Plot: After the Defeat of the Corruptor and The Extermination of the Remaining Darkspore, A new force arrives, The force of the Mighty Empire, A vicious legion that conquer every planet at their footstep and uses E-DNA to enhace their own soldiers, Conquering the Crogenitor Worlds and reducing them to slavery.
Use your genetic weopons to defeat the Empire and their Mad leader: The Emperor

New planets:
Solaria:Primary genesis type: no specific primary genesis

Gamma:Primary genesis type: Quantum

Aqua:Primary genesis type: Cyber

Biotica:Primary genesis type:Bio

Solaria III: Primary genesis type:Plasma

Lunaris:Primary genesis type:Necro

More information coming soon!!

Ice, frost, etc. all fits under Plasma genesis.

[koopaman42]

If that's true, then why is there absolutely nothing that shows it? Personally, I think that if that is the case then there should be atleast ONE hero that is ice to prove it! As of now, there is nothing to make us aware of this.

[kurliew]

MaxisYegg has confirmed that it is part of plasma, but it is not known wherther we will see any frost on our side. There is a pretty high chance, as it was an origional genesis, but was scrapped, presumably becasue there werent enough ideas behind it to create a full genesis

[Michael042296]

I always figured it was due to Cyros's background. Since Plasma genesis did originate there. If you think about it both would make sense with Cyros's backstory.

It would be basically the same game again... I think it's better if they first improve their game, I don't mean it's bad, I personally love it!! But I would like to see a few more options, for example, Clan Support? Several PVP game modes.. Item trading? Stuff like that!

So basically...

You've been given your cake...you've eaten a slice...now you're asking for another cake?

Finish the one you've got first.

It does? I've never seen an ice based attack on any heroes or enemies. Not counting the Machines that freeze on you cryos, i think it would neet to have a hero with all ice attacks. The Ice effects are beautiful in this game.

This. Though, eventually way down the road when an expansion would be relevant I would like to see some ice attacks. The effects are indeed quite pretty.

[Mesarthim]

I would like to see in plasma or bio an earth based attack (I think it fits under bio) and create wall of earth, spikes, prison, ...

Also, an ability that's not there is a wall of fire / earth / ice... That would be really nice to see a hero with such ability.

Other genesis, I don't know... Other heroes with powers, yes ! New classes ? maybe !

And other heroes with pets like the cyber and necro would be awesome

@Inquisitor_Laine: The game is pretty short, once you've finished 6-4, played 2 or 3 pvp fights, the game is just the same all over again but it just get more and more challenging, you spend your time making your heroes stronger... So I find it pretty normal that players are already requesting new features, new PVP or Coop modes, etc... Don't you think ?

Also, lots and lots of poeple find the game awesome but repetitive because it lacks of more content, not in term of heroes but in term of maps and modes.

And I think everybody wants to see the game last even longer than Diablo 2, to make it that way, Maxis will need to develop addons, DLC, etc... I would gladly pay for a simple DLC that would add only a new mode like DotA, a king of the hill, invasion, CTF etc... I don't think I'm the only one too

[OmniLight64]

As much as I like frost heroes, I still am iffy about having someone like Sharps run around with freezing powers and ice powers then be able to use flame surge and the other varients that don't really fit with ice. For some reason, I still think frost/ice fits more with a water genesis than plasma genesis.

Regarding to Mesar's comment about Earth, why just not make it another genesis? There are hundreds of things you can do with earth. Tunnel underground, cause earthquakes, spikes and prisons like you said, knock back foes, and many more things. It's a versitile thing and a Terra genetic hero would be cool. Limbless tunneling worm or serpent like creature anyone?

Anyone else notice after you kill the Corruptor, it's revealed there were more planets that darkspore invaded? And the profile I believe says there are 19 planets in total he experimented on. Probably hints at more genesis types and not just worlds.

[Mesarthim]

Actually, I think if frost were to be introduced, they would not get the same passive as the other plasma heroes. That would be the best... But who knows ?

I am talking about Bio because I already saw some bio mobs using earth attacks with spikes... I really hate those mobs and I rush on them as quickly as I can, especially since they have quite a long range.

Though I would love to see Water and Earth Genesis, I wouldn't mind to have them under plasma - bio if the secondary skills are differents.

As for limbless creatures, I say no =/ , especially since hands and feet oftenly have really cool attributes, if you look at hands, they oftenly have +40% atk speed which is really a must have. I tend to avoid heroes without hands. Now creatures more mole-like would be plausible enough for me.
And limbless creatures... what would it look like personnalized? Lots of spike, wings added, and other stuff... wouldn't that overcharge the body with customizations ?

Ya, the end lets you think there will be an addon with an eventual resurrection of the Corruptor... There's lots of possibilities. Now I hope Darkspore did sell good enough for Maxis to make great addons with it instead of falling into a darkspore 2 =(

[Spartan1555]

I would love to see a capture the flag pvp mode. Like, whoever has hold of the flag can't attack and the only way to retrieve it is to kill the person.

[Mesarthim]

If there's a CTF, there's a way to play with perma death for each hero or respawn based on flag capture limit.

Would need some maps with loads of traps on the way, destructible towers (respawning) and at least a 4vs4 to make the game interesting.
It could also include waves of monsters spawning here and there.

Well, anyway, what I wish the most to see is a mode where you have a "base" or a position to defend.

Argh, I'm hoping so much for this game, hoping that it will crush to death League of Legends and the likes.

[Aludiin]

I hope that the future Darkspore expansion packs add quite a bit to the game the same way Lord of Destruction added to Diablo II. Adding the gems, runes and runewords? (I am not sure if they were in the original) and charms added so much to the game, and the mod-ability changed the game so much, that I still play it to this day. I am not saying that this game should have the same features, but some things that are equally interesting.

Being Client/Server, I don't expect that there will be any modding as far as gameplay goes though.

I am enjoying the game very much and am ready to hit 9-2 tonight. I have hit some brick walls in progress, but enjoy the challenge.

Mesar, the spikes you are refering to are actually roots that come from the ground. If you look at them, they have a wood texture and not rocky. But thinking about that, there are no heroes that can create singularities, pools of lava, and whatever else I may be missing. Would be good to see some of those too.

Also, Maxis had some very nice images of some limbless ravanger and sentinels. Their weapons would give movement speed and such if I remember. And regarding your comment about hands, I've only seen 2 hands with +40% attack speed and 4 with lower ones. Normally, I see projectile speed on them not attack speed. My weapons and offense parts tend to have the attack speed benefits.

[Fungeorges]

One of the New game modes will be:

#Protect the Planet: type: coop
You and your partner get to Defend the selected planet from a Darkspore or Empirial Horde

#catch the banner: type: PVP
The typical catch the flag game

#Darkspore Horde: type: PVP
In this game mode your able to control your selected genetic weapons or play as a Darkspore Leader that can control other darkspore.

That were just some ideas I had and hope you like it!!

Double post glitch

[Fungeorges]

So basically...

You've been given your cake...you've eaten a slice...now you're asking for another cake?

Finish the one you've got first.

I don't want another cake, Infact I want to make the actual cake bigger
