You only have acess to one Galaxy, but this galaxy has hundred of thousands of planets and stars and several solar systems

Its not really a MMORPG... there are no fees for it at all... if there were, we would know by now... Although what a DO wonder about is how this game will fight against piracy... maybe your Cd-key will be constantly checked to keep track of where everything you created is going and coming from...

Wright said one galaxy only, but that it could contain a couple hundred thousand planets, more than any one person could colonize, conceivably in their lifetime if they renounced all of their worldly possessions save for a periodically stocked refridgerator, a landline to the Internet, and a computer.

I agree Locke everyone is saying they are gonna be horribly destructivly evil races. Ultra-violence does wear off after a while on any game, but at the same time not taking the path of evil just because there is violence in it is just as bad. While ventures to the dark side can be fun they are also typically emotionally affecting.
I nearly cried when I killed Juhani in Kotor

I for one hope that taking knowledge like this into consideration Will will :sweatdrop give the opportunity to the player to start multiple files of Spore without deleting a previous file

Save for the tribes bombed to radioactive dust?

And their families who live away too i guess...

a LOT of people will play this by the "Obliterate their asses away!" game style... thats why multiplayer would be a "No-no"... its just like MMORPG's today that dont have any control on PvP... they all were left for dust...

One thing that i belive its going to be impossible it would to colonize space... Having hundreds of Spaceships cruising the space and fighting creatures from other planets....

True, I'm not sure how intensive the micromanagement will be in Spore on the interplanetary and interstellar scale. I can easily imagine just controlling a few star systems as being waaaay too much for the common gamer, and even one star system after that causing full cerebral explosion to ANYONE. I figure most things will be automated, with the player interjecting where he feels like it.

Of course, most players will choose not to interject, since they'll be too busy flying around the galaxy on their suped-up UFOs, blasting the hell out of whatever they want. I personally might not take a genocidal stance, but I know I'm going to experiment heavily with terraforming tools and weapons systems on uninhabited moonlets and asteroids.

Someone mentioned sticky fluid in their pants?

Yeah. Same.

I am so pre-ordering this game.

Hey, I never said what kind of creatures I'd make! At the moment, a race of chibi merfolk seems quite appealing. They'd be too cute to enact genocide.

And I bet I could get the mitten hands working, too. Oh, cuddly interstellar travelers, masters of the sea. :)

I think what I'm actually going to do is have a basic idea for my creature, and then just evolve them based on what would make life easier or seems to fit what I've got them doing.
