I've TOTALLY been doing the same thing!

At this point drawing stick figure creatures is a lot more satisfying.

Now THAT is a good idea. Pencils and crayons do NOT have the limits put in this game on purpose , to sell you said features later for a price.

I would do that same as you, accept for the fact that I've spent the last week on this forum fighting for what I believe in, and coincidentally have NOT been playing any games.

The Fruit of my work can be found here http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/list/8108.page

And I'm working on my webcomic...which, incidentally, has a lot of the same themes as Science Spore.

Actually, it's a reimagining of Star Trek; I love the premise, hate the execution. So I'm making my own version, which can basically be described as either, "What about Star Trek would have to change for me to like it?" or "Firefly's ship and crew, Star Wars's tech, Babylon 5's plot, and the visual style of The Jetsons, Futurama, and Wall-E, put in a blender on 'Whip' for two minutes".

It'll be a lot of work, but it'll be worth it when it's ready to show.

There's a lot of things we can do so long as Spore is pooptacular; maybe Maxis should be commended for making a get-off-your-duff-and-do-other-things product, hmm? I'm on to their plot! Hah!

" I love the premise, hate the execution."

sound familiar?

I can think of some that I wouldn't hate though.

My own words; I use them for a lot of things.

Speaking of words...still waiting for one from Maxis. Hmph.

She's back

I spent yesterday being creative; made a lot of progress on that comic project I told you about.
Won't be sticking around much longer; gotta be at butt-kicking class in about 50 minutes.

good evening RG

Still no answer, unless cute and creepy is meant to be our answer, "yes we are NOT listening to a word you Spore people say so go suck an egg."

That...is something I'm afraid of.

Anyone else notice that the sticky about having our submitted-to-Maxis questions has gone away? Anyone?

*psigh* It's getting to that point where I want to spit on the ground after muttering Maxis's name like a curse. Not so much anger as disgust.

It has.. I hope not. And if it is . I wonder their reasons.

oh yea.. a hello to you. Hope your day is going good despite the difficulties with EA.

I don't know...but I'm personally sick of being jerked around by EA/Maxis; they need to be infinitely better at communication than THIS.

Yeah, today's been good. Got some artwork done, went to martial arts...now back to the CNN presidential debate preshow.

When the kids are quiet, they Up to something bad!..... unless they are sleeping. (pertaining to the silence of EA/Maxis

Just making some noice.

We want Spore!
We want Spore!

You know what we are talking about.

Don't think you have given us what was promised.
We will not go away.

We want Spore!

Heh. See what you've reduced us to, Maxis? Cheerleading!

...or, I suppose, synchronized chanting, like at a political rally or something.

Heck, if I had the cash for it, I'd hop a plane and go picket Maxis headquarters; might be good for a news sound bite even if it didn't get the results we want from Maxis.
