Spore, as far as I've seen, is very complicated to begin with. The player doesn't seem to get any kind of tutorial a lot of the time and is expected to read the manual or the Spore-guide to understand what the hell you have to do at certain times.
Even some of the missions are extremely vague. You are sent out to collect some stuff, at some planet which you have to SEARCH FOR FIRST and when you find it you suddenly get ambushed by enemy ships. I mean come on, that's just frustrating for any kind of player.
Also my home planet easily just sent me to one of the most fortified planets in the universe which they expected me to level with just my mini-laser since I couldn't afford anything else at that point, and who would expect the player to have money to have high tech weapons... those were TUTORIAL missions.
I think Space Stage was rushed out because there are a LOT of things broken there. I hope they patch stuff like this at some point because Space Stage is just not fun this way.
