martinist Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 Just bought this, should be arriving on Tuesday. Picked it up for around £12
Sheikah Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 Been playing this, up to the civilisation stage and probably enjoyed the create stage the most. I thought the cell stage reminded me of the game Flow quite a bit. This game is a blast and has a nice variety of gameplay elements, which stops it getting stale straight off.
Guest Stefkov Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 I've been playing it over an hour now. I thought the first stage was great. I wish it had lasted longer though. I was all grown up after about half an hour. I've been on a rampage, dominating the area around my original nest. I've buddied up with some wierd chicken type creatures. I think I'll kill them some time. PS: how do ye get to play as a spore of one of your own creations/get other peoples creations in your game? I didn't read the manual, sue me.
Gizmo Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 Haha, I just had an awesome idea. Spore and Yakult should do a cross promo. The advert: You could have some evil looking creatures fighting against some good looking creatures. These represent good bacteria and bad bacteria. Then in flies some friendly bacteria on a UFO, befriend the good bacteria, and kill the bad bacteria. Then you get Spore advertising on the Yakult packaging. Awesome. /random

martinist Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 How did you get it for that cheap? £29.99 from GAME minus £17.80 worth of reward points.
Guest Stefkov Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 I only wanted to play this for a few hours at about 11 o'clock. This game is just...wth. I love the building and vehicle creators. My Town Hall looks awesome.
ZeroAX Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 the only stage I found kind of boring was the tribal stage. now I'm in the space age. I have made the most evil creatures in the universe. anything they see they devoure and I took half the planet by using nukes. When I reacher the civilization stage my creatures were dreaming about nukes and war. I even made my buildings as horrible as possible (but some really funny vehicles)

When I reacher the civilization stage my creatures were dreaming about nukes and war. I even made my buildings as horrible as possible (but some really funny vehicles) Oh yeah? I made the Rape Monsters, a flying bipedal beast with huge muscles that shoots purple goo from its crotch. They fly in packs and attack with rage, knowing that they're only purpose in the universe was to rape everyone else. As soon as they mastered technology they built a huge Rape Hall with 6 seats outdoors at the top of the tower, where the rape sages made the their judgements and decided who would be the next victim attacked with the giant robot tank, the Rape Machine. ... It just didn't start well, Rape Monster looked fitting to his physique.
Guest Stefkov Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 I've just gotten up to the Space stage and I've gone off and explored another planet. It's telling me to go back to my home planet to complete the mission but when I do nothing happens. The Comm button is flashing but clicking it won't do. I don't know what else to do.
Letty Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 Fucks sake! My mates decided to relocate their nest today, to the top of a Massive hill that I couldn't get up! What a joke! I ended up starting again, and in the tribal stage, I gave them all huge moustaches
Sheikah Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 Fucks sake! My mates decided to relocate their nest today, to the top of a Massive hill that I couldn't get up!What a joke! I ended up starting again, and in the tribal stage, I gave them all huge moustaches Give them the wings to let them glide higher when you mash space. FLY! FLYYY! Creature stage was the best IMO. They should have expanded the gameplay of that a lot more. The rest felt a bit like a heavily watered down red alert (space is fun, but still not as fun).
Dyson Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 They should have expanded the gameplay of all the stages tbh, but it's a good timewaster. Good fun.
Gizmo Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 Fucks sake! My mates decided to relocate their nest today, to the top of a Massive hill that I couldn't get up!What a joke! I ended up starting again, and in the tribal stage, I gave them all huge moustaches That would piss me off. Problem is, because the nest has moved, you can't edit wing's on, because you can't get to the nest to enter the editor! It happened to me on a smaller scale; I accidentally exited the editor without putting feet on, and then the bastards decided to move nest, leaving me trying to wander across the island past about 4 enemy tribes with no feet! Ended up having to hug the coast and take the loooong way round.
Dyson Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 Can't you just follow the dotted line around until you reach another new nest?
Gizmo Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 I did, but there were two nests so close together I always got the attention of one of them when taking that line. So I tried going round the back, and got hit by another 2 :p Got there eventually, was all good
McPhee Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 Spore will be in my hands tomorrow Can't wait!
Guest Stefkov Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 The only other Colonies I can speak to to set up trade routes are part of the 'Wub Empire'. I don't want to be their friends. I want to take their planets by force and show them life isn't about living in harmony with the earth...
