And of course it&#8217;s not perfect. Let me go over with you what I&#8217;ve learned so far about this EP;<\/p>\n<p>First thing, you cannot turn an existing planet into an Adventure planet. All you can do is edit or create an Adventure planet in Space Stage, and it can only be played on in the Quick Play mode. How in the hell you&#8217;re able to play on Adventure planets that others have created in the Space stage, is beyond me.<\/p>\n<p>2nd, you cannot fly around on an Adventure planet. You have an option of either Accepting or Denying the adventure. Basically, cannot go through the atmosphere on Adventure planets.<\/p>\n<p>3rd, you can only go to Adventure planets when you get a quest to. However it&#8217;s not really official of this. Just it seems like it&#8217;s the only way.<\/p>\n<p>4th, you can redo already completed adventures, but you&#8217;ll be restarting the whole thing. The only reason you would want to is if you care about beating your previous time, since you can&#8217;t gain anymore points from a completed adventure.<\/p>\n<p>5th, you can cross the ocean on Adventure planets, and nothing will jump out of the water and eat you, unlike in Creature stage.<\/p>\n<p>6th, cheats will not work on Adventure planets, because completed adventures are monitored. To explain better, adventures, when completed, the time is submitted online, and it would be&#8230; unfair, to cheat for a faster time. All I can say is &#8220;fuck you, EA&#8221; for this. I don&#8217;t give a shit about beating my time or someone else&#8217;s time.<\/p>\n<p>And the final one, 7th, the Space Stage music is still as depressing as it was before. I was hoping they would have better music by now, then the &#8220;You&#8217;re all alone. This galaxy is huge&#8230;&#8221; feeling of that music.<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\nI want to add that I still don&#8217;t understand why EA did this with the way they made this EP not implement with Spore. But EA has done alot of stupid things, so there&#8217;s no surprise.<br \/>\nThe EP is pretty much Spore as a whole, plus Galactic Adventures. Why didn&#8217;t they put this in the core instead of creating two games, I don&#8217;t know.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, I&#8217;m finding this EP just as frustrating as the core game. I tend to like hanging around near my home planet, and only occasionally go out JUST a little bit and make a few trade routes.<br \/>\nThe reason is I hate failure, and especially dieing. That&#8217;s why I attempt to scour the web for a cheat code or two. Anything that has to do with &#8220;unlimited health&#8221;, I&#8217;ll go for.<\/p>\n<p>About three hours ago I&#8217;m trying to make ally with these warthog-like creatures, and they tell me to defeat the Grox invading one of their colony planets. I attempt to do it and fail because the fucking refillMotives cheat does not work on Adventure planets and so I die. I&#8217;m too much of a coward to find easier ones, which means going far away from the safety of my Dragon Empire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I tried out the EP.
