    No Raven. Spore is essentially a "massively single player game". Your not truly playing with other people, you just download their creations to put in their worlds.

    Question: Can the others attack your nest/tribe/city/planet when your not online?

    @ xBurnTheFleet - This game will not suck at all. I have watched every freaking video on it, and, even if it isn't max quality, it will NOT suck!!!

    @ Everyone - Spore is massively single player, you can blow up another player's planet without it affecting them, get it?

    Also the requirement are pretty low. 512 mb RAM, 6800 GeForce, 1.5 ghz could run this game on lowest graphics pretty smoothly. There will be a half million planets in your galaxy per save file. So each galaxy has the potentil to be different then the one you had on another save file. (That is what I gathered so far).

    If you die in spore, you do one of the following.

    1. Cell (no idea)
    2. Creature (back to nest)
    3. Tribe (back to tribe)
    4. Civilization (back to main city)
    5. Space (back to home planet)

    The ultimate goal is to get to the center of your galaxy, what happens next is not known. You will unlock powers and parts while exploring in your spaceship, and encounter ancient ruins for some of those bonuses. I can keep going on but that should be helpful.

    Wow I've been waiting for this game for nearly 4 years now can't believe its finally going to come out. Even my science teacher has pre-ordered it

    Sad...he spent all of 45 secs making that vehicle and it still looks better than something I will spend an hour on

    Will Wright really pulled a Peter Molyneux. Space used to be 3d, but now the travel map is 2d. We were supposed to be able to build city's underwater. Still cant wait. Go spore. P.S anyone else notice the travel map thing?

    vehicles creatures, what the hell doesn´t this game got, it looks great

  • LostMagik

    The creature was made by someone else and input into your world. It acts like the player who uses it acts. If the player was aggressive so is it, and vice versa. Will describes the game as Massively Single Player Game.

    Something I still don't understand, that epic creature, is it another player playing at that moment? or just a creature someone made that runs around?
    And is this game live-online? =O

    This will prove once and for all if we COULD be a God. If we COULD do intelligent design.

    Looks great, but man the guy giving the demo does a pretty poor job. He's not very well spoken, and he doesn't really answer the questions very well.

    can you prove he exists?

  • TheDefender221

    Posted Aug 15, 2008 9:42 pm PT

    I don't think this is a god game specifically,
    in cell phase you are avatar based,
    same in creature phase, in tribe it becomes a small RTS where you are a "king" therefore control all activities,
    same with civilization,
    and in space you are a ship captain with many abilities,
    All builders are because; in avatar games, can't you control your stats? or you control them as a leader in RTS, NOT a god, At least, that's how I look at it, and there is only one God.

    It's not the about the game, it's someone over-reacting to sarcasm about a guy a lot of people admire. Although I do agree with lozvil that there is only one God.

    this message is for w4rgasm, will wright is a very good game developer or producer or whatever... i like his games but FYI, there's only one God and that's the One that is in Heaven!
