The College of #grah: Everything I Know About Spore, I Learned in Grah

<< < (5/6) > >>

Gus Smedstad:
On a lesser scale, I did see that in the Devolution Challenge.  I'd kill a bunch of the always-hostile types, and they backed down first to Unfriendly, and then they started to fear me.  I'd get near them and they'd go into a cowering posture.  Which is well done, I must say, programming that for creatures that can have any body shape must have been challenging.  Unfortunately, when I tried to get closer to them they'd run, and as a slug I couldn't catch them.  So no pushing that species into extinction.

Patience, grasshopper. I often start my creatures out with just one leg. Fast is not a word I'd use to describe them until maybe the third brain level. Wait for a bit and they will calm down and return to the nest. Then you can go at them again.

Yes, backing off and lurking in the woods where you can watch the nest is fun. :)  Fun to do it in Tribal, too -- just have a bunch waiting in the woods, send one out to raid the enemy's food, one or two of them chase, you pick them off.  Makes the mass invasion of the enemy home much easier after a while. :)
 

Gus Smedstad:
Creatures actually move slower with one leg?  I had the impression that number of body parts didn't matter.  Just which foot type you chose.

EsotericPolarBear:
Using stealth while standing in the nest is more fun.  Especially if you have a whole pack with you.  And can charge.
