**SPORE**

The downside of living in a village is that 1st class mail is really 2nd class:( Day off and no spore to play.

Another downside of living in The Village is this guy:

Well my spore arrived and installed without any problems BUT I cannot log into my
spore account from within the game. Its looking like there are server problems at EA:(

Is anyone else having this problem?.
 
Finding it hard to get started on the space stage, im just getting attacked by multiple fleets every time i start to do anything. The AI attacks wave after wave with multiple ships and i can only have one completely outclassed ship and next to no planetary defenses. I cant upgrade my ship because i have no time to generate money to do so, seems a bit unfair. Maybe im missing something?
 
good point I'll have to try that, I know you could with the creature creator.

If you could let me know matey, although ill try it tonight when i get home, wifey says a packet arrived.

Actually i guess you can as long as the cd is in the machine, which makes it impossible to run on both at the same time anyway.
 
I think a lot of people here don't seem to be giving the game a chance. That's how it seems to me anyway.
There's not as much incentive when you pick it up for free...
As a "try-before-you-buyer" I have to admit that I think you're right. I never try a game and constantly slate it within about five minutes, regardless of the fact I just got it for free, but I think a lot of people who downloaded it are doing just that. Maybe to justify not buying it while they secretly play more of it it, maybe?

Edit: Speaking of which, my copy just dropped through the letterbox. :D

Just read it doesn't support Antialiasing! Nooooooooooooo...
I have 4xAA/16xAF in drivers and it works 100%.

Why would you bother doing that? If I'd obtained a game illegally and liked it, I'd simply say "hey, it's pretty good - definitely worth buying". If that encourages other people to pay for the game then you can probably sleep at night knowing that you've encouraged game sales.

Erm, because I'm honest? If you download something and like it, it's worth buying isn't it.

Installing my legit copy of Spore now and deleting my downloaded copy. ;)

You've misunderstood my post.

If you're going to not pay for the game and want to hide that fact/feel guilty, there are far better ways to do it than slate the game you stole.

Quite a lot of people are reporting this, although I can login fine for some reason.

Do we know yet if you can install it on more than one machine?

Yes you can.

Ah, well, when it comes down to it I think it's one of two things: -

1.) OcUK doesn't really like anything, definitely not if they've not paid for it.

2.) I think some of the people slating it aren't going to delete it just yet. ;)
