Spore News

Working on the site again!
11 Aug 2023 - 02:22

Hubby and myself are currently enjoying some time off from work. And what are we doing in our spare time! Why, play old games like Spore of course. And as for myself, I’m also working on updating SporeNetwork again. New design (with the old 2005 design colours!) and I’m working on getting my old creations on the site.

In the future I will upload more creations from myself, Cheetah and our eldest son who has made hundreds of creations in recent years. I also have every intention of adding regular new wallpapers as well. And perhaps I will put some things in the spotlight, like mods and other people’s creations. I will also report on similar games.

Spore.com closing down!
29 Jul 2013 - 23:38

Just found out through O Sim BR that Spore.com is closing down very soon. I visited the (European) Spore sites and all of them have the same message. I have a bit of hope that they are only closing down the European sites and keeping up the US one. But I'm afraid it's all of them.

Spore Website To Be Shutdown

On August 1st, this version of the Spore.com site will be retired.

The game's functionality will still continue to work without issue. Players can continue to use the Sporepedia and all of the online features of the game.

The online version of the Sporepedia will be accessible at http://www.spore.com/sporepedia

-The Spore Team

Give me a moment while I mourn this loss. I loved the Spore website and have actually been a Sporemaster in the past. I guess it's time to download my creatures and buildings from the website, in case I don't have them on my computer anymore.

Another Darkspore beta!
8 Apr 2011 - 22:25

On the official Darkspore forums I found this important message:

An exclusive EA Store (http://eastore.ea.com) Darkspore beta will be open from Friday 12PM PDT through Sunday evening. If you already have Darkspore, feel free to hop on in! There is no patch for this beta and all progress has been preserved.

An open beta will start April 12th and run through April 22nd. We have a nice set of patch notes for that one :). Accounts will be reset for the open beta.

Darkspore release date changed!
18 Mar 2011 - 21:35

Today, the Darkspore team announced a change in release date:

We're moving the Darkspore release date to April 26... and we're going to have more betas!

On the bright side, we will get more betas! :D

Thanks to everyone who has participated in the Darkspore beta! We’ve received really positive feedback about the game, as well as some suggestions of things you’d like to see. We’re really close, but in order to make the best game possible, the team has decided to take additional time to incorporate more of your feedback. Darkspore will now be available in NA April 26 and across EU/APAC beginning April 28. The beta will not be available this weekend, but we’re excited to announce that we’ll have more betas where you’ll have a chance to experience new game updates. We’re also planning an open beta for everyone in April, so you can invite any friends to play with you to check out the game and have the opportunity to provide further feedback. Thanks again for your support, and we’ll see you in the game!

Some SporeNetwork changes
10 Mar 2011 - 15:47

With the new theme, I also worked on a couple of other changes:

  • Sporepedia is no longer a link to another website, but a new encyclopedia for all Spore games. It's not a wiki! Sporepedia already contains some information, but it's not complete yet.
  • A couple of menu items have disappeared in the new theme, such as screenshots, videos, information, help and some more. This can now be found under Sporepedia and saves a lot of space.
  • There was a lot of spam in the comments section, so we deleted all the comments (as far as we could see it, the website didn't contain any real comments anyway. We also deleted all the spammers. To prevent more spammers from joining the website and commenting, the comments are now moderated. Accounts have to be approved. But you don't need an account to post a comment.
  • The forums have been reorganized. The Spore showcase forums can now be found under Spore. A Darkspore forum has been added. So be sure to pay the forums a visit!
  • There is a new poll about Darkspore!
  • Old release dates have been removed (you can still see them in Sporepedia), and updated with Darkspore release dates!
  • The website members list and profile pages have been given a make-over! In the members list and on profile pages you can see difference between male, female and gender unknown profiles.
  • We updated the affiliates block, since some affiliates have closed their websites.
  • The social networking block has also been updated; We have a new Facebook page!

New SporeNetwork design!
10 Mar 2011 - 15:11

With Darkspore being released this month, we decided to give SporeNetwork a new look. A somewhat darker design for both Darkspore and Spore. If you don't like this dark theme, you can still go to your account (yes, members only) and choose the old "Spore" theme. As for the forums, I haven't had time to create a matching forum theme yet, but I'll work on that one very soon. Enjoy the new theme!

Darkspore - Beta Keys Giveaway!
5 Mar 2011 - 22:40

I have been able to play the Darkspore beta ever since it opened about a month ago. I got a key through Maxis, but also several keys through EA Netherlands. I mainly gave away these keys to my team members, so I didn't offer them on SporeNetwork. However, I got a new batch of beta keys from EA! If you are interested in playing the Darkspore beta, but don't have a beta key, contact me through our contact page! We'll contact you a.s.a.p. about the beta keys!
