Nothing will happen, except Maxis have to buy another server to store more on.

That scares me silly. Service for this project has to be huge.


Theoretically, if the server-side software was to become known or understood and then replicated, it would be possible for users to set up their own sporepedia servers by modding the game to make it connect to a different URL. The problem is figuring out how EA's servers work, which they're not likely to divulge since right now they have a monopoly on everything.

It would take a code leak or a feat of incredible programming to pull off custom sporepedias.

They will probably just throw a big party at HQ , get rid of bad creations, say we did good, pat a few pros on the back, and sell another expansion pack.

One of many things will happen:

1) The cake will not be a lie anymore

2) Australia will nuke everyone

3) It will rain monkeys

4) WHAT THE FU-BOOOOOOOM! SPORE SERVERS EXPLODE!

5) Bush says "Internets" again

Sigh...tired of Spore, moving on to BF2142 and TF2. I might come back later, maybe not.

You gotta get the nukes first. Us over here in the states has a ton of the things, we could trade you for, say, a coupon on some blooming onions?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that a spore creation is about one megabyte. Now, one billion spore creations would be roughly equivalent to 909 exabytes or 1 * 10^21 bytes which is in short, a very big number.


Wha?

I am chasin' that feelin that you feel once in life but never again, I take the pain and replace that feeling, It's got a hold on me, It's like all those haters said I'd never make it this far.

If we got 100m creations in a year, we'll have it in 10 years(2019). By that time Spore is a fad long gone.


Do you like mudkips? If so, use this sig.
