"EA/Maxis have completely ignored their "tech support" spore forum section since it's creation. No statement, no support, nothing.
Known major bugs:
Known major bugs:
- Random crashing (primarily in the Space Stage)
- The bug related to the DasmX86Dll.dll file and the WINMM.dll file
- SPORE not loading upon startup
- Unable to download user content
- License Server Issues
- Graphical Glitches
- Mobile Graphics Card Issues (Even supported ones)
- Possible SECUROM issues
- Public Content / Buddy Sharing issues
(Please add to these as you see fit)
It should be known that these issues are affecting a VERY large amount of customers - this isn't one or two people, as you can see by the current forum activity.
Buyer beware - if you purchase spore, there's a large chance that it will be completely unplayable. If you're using a laptop, consider Spore an impossibility. No support or statement has yet been offered by EA, or Maxis.
Digg this! : Digg - Spore - seriously buggy, completely unplayable by thousands.
An article which hits the frontpage on digg usually receives a traffic influx of 80,000+ visitors - and considering the amount of free marketing that the digg community has given spore, all those users are definitely entitled to know that they're more than likely to run into problems."
