Now I'd like to Sporecast the fruits of my labors, but I can't find my own goodies anywhere! I've named them (of course), provided a short description and tagged the heck out of each one. When I search for them in the Sporecast section, they're not found, no matter how generic or specific I make my terms.

Is there something I'm totally missing? I'm willing to accept that I may not be seeing the forest for all the trees,

i have been having the same issue. and i realized that half of my creations are not uploaded right. i have almost 400 creations from playing multiple times and normal creating. but only like 208 or so actually show up on the server.

so ive been having this problem since i got the game and i noticed that only half of my own creations that i made show up on the spore server. Why is that? ... all of them are shared, none of them break the code of conduct thing or w/e, none of them are really that complex, ive never cheated. and just the other day, i noticed that all of them that arnt showing up say "This creation has been deleted from the server" under where the "comments" block is in game.

is there any way to fix this without like editing it and then deleting the previous version?

I seriously believe I spent $50 bucks on beta testing some water downed POS... *SNIP*

i feel the same way. as much as i do actually like the game. it feels like its nothing but a beta that i saved $50 ... yes, saved ... just to try it.

Will has said that they worked from the idea that whatever a player did it wasn't irreversable.

So they decided to abandon autosave because it might interfer with the overall philosophy.

(They should have used Civ's autosave system.2 seperate save files)

yes they should have, or even just a toggle, or both.

wow .. ive seen some things from the 2005 version on vids, but nothing like that for cell stage. the one we have now looks like it should be for F-ing beta. and i really want the water stage, it just seemed stupid to me to suddenly go from a tiny little cell that is no bigger than a shell to a 5 foot creature basically.

i mean, i do like spore, it passes my time when i have some extra and it somewhat actually keeps me entertained for a while. but i feel like i spent $50 on a beta version almost. and unlike some people, $50 is a lot to me and i actually had to set money aside so that i would be able to buy the game.

I threw a few comments out there

I don't see answers to problems in that announcement... I see new game features that will just add to the already existing problems...

They need to clean up the Sporepedia interface, sync it better with the website archives, give us more control over what gets uploaded and download, and better crash recovery IN program ...

*sigh*

They've been listening to what it would take to MILK us more ...

Instead of fixing what they already have, they hand us fluff, fluff, and more fluff...

If they really cared about keeping customers, rather than grabbing quick bucks, they'd put it into a patch, not sell it as an expansion...

---

And before anyone accuses me of just trying to get stuff for free, this household paid for Creature Creator, Spore, and Spore Galactic Edition... The one purchase that was worth the money was the Creature Creator...

I want what I paid for ... not the sloppy excuse they ended up pushing out the door chopped all to heck so they could milk us with expansion, after expansion, after expansion, after ...

Anywho, they still could have gotten people to buy expansions if the base model was halfway worth it.
Build a castle on sand, or mud, and it's gonna crumble...

we shouldnt have to wait for a whole expansion to come out for those things to be fixed, those should be fixed in patches that should be happening SO more often, with problems actually fixed and no added problems afterwards.

I succeeded in all the previous stages on hard, and just got so frustrated with Civ on hard I gave it up and went back to work on Alter Ego's Alter Ego.

I'll try this one again and use your suggestions.

same here, only i worked on alter ego, now im working on that one.

i had a rock formation that was glitched and i could barely get into it. so i just went at it since the epic couldnt get in from any sides.

but i had difficulties, mainly when i had to eat something .. epic would walk away and id have to chase it again, would eat other creatures and heal 100HP, or just dissapear and suddenly have full health after losing 400 of it. THAT made me mad. so then i made "check points" and i saved it after every 200 HP or when i had to eat ... that helped. only had to reload once because it dissapeared again.

so with all that, it took almost 2 hrs, but i finally got it, no help and only spit 4 the whole time cuz that's all i had collected and i didnt want to lose the epic.

all these strategies for hard civ and just makes want to go home and try now!

only any time any of them speak, makes me want to planetbust anything with life on it

If you ever leave the Sporum, let me know what game boards you go to next!!! mwah!

Back to subject, I'll be honest, I spend $100-200 a month on PC games. Been playing PC games for the last 20 years.

I've never ever felt so incented to pirate (I dont even know how to) anything before but the parts pack I wish I would just because Spore feels like such a shallow rip-off that I feel like its my right and privilidge to have this parts pack for free. It should be a FREE RELEASE to continue any kind of user interest in the game until an full expansion can be released.

i second all of that, including the part about rocketgirl hahaha
