What, are you guys busy playing Spore not to make a Spore thread? Fuck
Yeah. Games out. At least here it is. a hefty $100NZD (PC games are usually about $50-$80NZD), too. people who have played it say that it's a little gimmicky, though ultimately fun, and that single player is not the whole experience.
ppl 2 discus |
Getting today, don't worry! I missed the release somehow!! :(
|
I'm going to be a bitch and download the Warez version.
I'll buy the Galactic thingy later when I have some cash, I just blew my last game purchase on Soul Calibur 4. |
and i am gonna download through warez stuff too.
|
Damn bastards at EA fucked up the preorder deliveries and now no single store around here has their preorder versions! Now the normal version is earlier available then the ones preordered months ago :P.
|
I really want it but I won't play games on the pc. It puts my body in pain.
|
I'm in a similar situation. not really a PC gamer at all, with few exceptions.
Still, will borrow it off of someone I know. Apparently with each purchased copy of Spore you get 3 installs before you can't spread the disc around anymore. Kind of weird I thought, even if to protect against pirates such as MOST OF YOU CUNTS |
Pff they did that with Bioshock and see how long that lasted :).
And in my defence, as a pirate, do you see prices these days? 80 EURO for 1 game! Hell no. Especialy since 90% of that crap is EA and non of their games are worth that kind of money. Spore is, though. Spore is Maxis. Spore is Will Wright. So I am nice and buying :). |
I'll buy it later...
Besides, Leto, everybody knows you don't actually play games, you just hold the CD in your hands and suck all the potential fun out of it with a straw. |
maxis is part from ea , and i will download this game and others to because 1 the prices are high , 2 it would be hard to get them.
|
games are indeed extremely expensive. I only buy them if I really like them.
except DS games. I pretty much just pirate them all. |
I have it!
'Tis really good! Its also a tad childish and easy, but then again i haven't got to the space stage yet :( |
I bought it yesterday. Only used the creators so far but it's such fun to use them. Made this thing that walks on an omivore mouth, has mouths on 2 knees that merge into 1 bulging sac-like leg, and has all manner of other hideous evolutionary deformities. It can jump surpprsingly well, considering its shape.
Deciding on its colour scheme is the tricky part now, purple-based, purple-and-multicoloured, or Posion-arrow-Frog style speckled blue or black & yellow..... I also tried to make an Elum, and it's a lot harder than it looks to do. No real Elum-esque herbivore mouths for one thing. |
Gonna try to get it today. Shouldn't have been around the gamefaqs boards though while waiting. To much negativity about the game there....
|
Is this officially the most buzz any single game has had in history? I can think of people who hate every single style of gameplay reflected in Spore who are still going to buy it.
Also, I'm going to go buy it tomorrow. |
Um, daft question but, in the Creature Creator (the one for fully evovled creatures) where the HELL are the wings? I can't find any wings anywhere.
|
I think you have to find them.
I've also found no wings :( |
I managed to get the game and I think it's good, though a bit cartoony. I didn't realise it takes creatures you've made earlyer and puts them as enemies, so when I got attacked by a herd of carnivorous Meeps it really surprised me.
|
If you give a Meep a herbivore mouth they won't attack. Also, thanks for the wing tip, Laser. I assume there's plenty more unlockable parts too, then.
I'm about to try Meep making as well. I've also downloaded Conceit's Paramite (which is tremendous, if a little off-colour) and 1%er, which I'm recolouring and renaming as he listed it as Skillya. However, Im keeping my edits of his work confined to my game, I don't want to upload his work under my name as it feels like theft. |

|
I'm not getting it for aaaaaages. I can't afford a new computer.
|
...Okay, warez versions apparently are unusable online.
Fuck that, I'm waiting for money to buy it. |
Good news. I have it on good authority that someone discovered my (poorly made) scrabs in the Spore game, reporting that they were too hostile for their own good and had to be wiped out from afar using spit.
|

Man is Spore addicting. I'm starting the Civilization Phase right now, after building them a city hall the first thing they asked for was a tank XD. My creatures are true savages. They kill absolutely everything in sight first chance they get. In the 'Path Chosen' screen I'm at the very bottom!
Go me :D |
I bought it today but haven't gotten around to installing it yet. As a bonus, I traded in Animal Crossing so that game no longer steal my soul.
|
I played it for like 10 minutes. 10 MINUTES OF AWESOME
|
I got it yesterday, played for like, two hours straight today.
Got to the beginning of civ. It's interesting so far, although my buildings look like crap. I'm not an architect by any means. Cars look kick-ass though. I've also been trying to see in the middle. I WANT to be evil but I heard if you go overboard by space stage EVERY planet is going to be against you. And I don't want that >_<. |
This thread has been magicked. Now Bee Quiet and Bee Have.

You know, one time back when I worked for Ford, I cracked a joke to someone about Eugenics. I learnt then that in that environment you have to be careful about what comments you make; not that the guy was insulted by the concept of Eugenics, just that the average mechanic has absolutely no idea what Eugenics is and will look at me like I'm some elitist schmuck for using words he can't understand.
|
I was going to get Spore this week, but my hard drive turns out to have just a couple hundred megabytes of free space, so… not yet.
|
Here's some of the stuff I've been making.
http://www.spore.com/sporepedia#qry=...trm|2250780133 Post your usernames people I want to see the creativity flow! |
Already shared my critters.
Take pictures if you run into and destroy them, okay? |
I'll show you a picture of their planet just before I BLOW IT UP!! MWHAHA
|
well I am getting spore , through warez ofcourse :D.
|
I bought Spore last Sunday. I've not uplaoded any creatures yet apart from the ones that are auto-shared when you evovle your creature through creature phase, but i've made several things, and tried a couple Oddworld things, namely a resurrection totem and a transformation shrine, as well as a piss-poor Elum.
I love the game, but have 1 major problem/question- in creature phase, I have only encountered Maxis creatures thus far, and 1 user created creature called a Carnivora . In the Sporepedia also, only Maxis stuff and a handful of other stuff appears under the Everything tab, racking up around 1600 creations total, and only a few different creations appear under the search tab (the newest actual uplaoded ones fro mwhat I can tell), and I can't seem to search as it says it can't connect. I've tried downloading PNGs via spore.com/sporepedia to upload, and the creatures don't appear. Also, from what I can tell in my settings, I haven't set it to Maxis-only (although to be honest, I don't know how you can see what you've regulated the Sporepedia as). So yeah, currently the massively multiplayer online sharing isn't coming into effect for me, can anybody shed some light as to why? I've online-activated my account as well, before anyone asks. It's as though my game can't connect to the full Sporepedia, even though there is no reason for it not to be able to. |
I hate the Maxis crap, it sucks compared to the other creations
I came across a Balrog which had Flareon as carnivores on the planet. Pure Awesome |
I don't think the intense online stuff comes in until civ or space.
|
Yeah, Maxis made way more creatures then they did Civs and Space stuff.
The game dowloads stuff over time, you just need to give it more. Also, adding people to your buddy list fasttracks their stuff to yours. |
