What kind of fake analyst said that? How does he/she know what kind of bugs Spore has? Or how long it will take Wright to fix them?

At this point, it is impossible to narrow down an exact release date, or a delay chance! Especially by someone who guesses. For Spore, i only take what Will says.

Personally, Between Late April and Mid July is where i think that the release date will be.

Err...

This is not a delay!

Even in the unlikely case if this guy is right, this is not a delay, because Spore was only expected to be released in "fiscal 2009", that ends in March 2009. This is what EA said.


If you thought that it means the very beginning of the fiscal year, blame yourself, and die, lol!

Take a look at this.

Here is a search for "Spore" at EA jobs for the US:
Electronic Arts Jobs
Looks like the finishing positions of a Development team to me.


And here is the same for Canada:
Electronic Arts Jobs
Gameplay and AI? That doesn't sound like a game thats aiming for a Summer release! The UI i understand, they've been going through UI like a box of tissues in winter, but Gameplay and AI?

Did they forget to update the jobs in Canada? Or are we in for a long haul here? Whats the deal?

I thought that that was for the Wii version. I remember they were calling jobs for spore, and one of the requirements was "must have had expierence making a game for the wii" or something to the effect of that.

I remember way back when, when EA made people work work 9 AM to 10 PM seven days a week, they might get a Saturday off for good behaviour....usually at 6:30 PM.
Now that is how you make games.

Don't worry, I'm sure they will release it long before March 2009.

That's no way to make a game, you just resent the thing your doing eventually. Anyway EA got sued over that and had to change.

Analysts are never too good at predicting the future. Let EA come out with the release date at GDC, then we'll all be happy.

This reminds of a situation on the Company of Heroes community, people were bitching and moaning about the game being unbalanced and connection issues, the community pressured Relic (the designers) into releasing a patch and when they did it was incomplete and people were moaning about relic rushing out the patch, when many of them were the very people who pressured for its release.

Remember at the end of all this Maxis and EA are just humans who work 9-5, id rather they took their time than rushed the game out.
First off, Spore, as we saw at Macworld, is FAR from a "dissappointing glitch fest" as you said, and remember, EVERY game, EVERY SINGLE ONE, has to some degree bugs. Also, shame on you for comparing Spore to Company of Heroes, how long has Company of Heroes been in development, nay, how long has it been from Post-Alpha through Beta? It is getting around the 2/3rds of a year mark for Spore's Beta stage!

I'd take a game with minor glitches (Which Spore looks to be) over a perfectly glitch free Spore that takes an extra six months to fine-tune. Because, at the end of the day, who has Spore? Given Spores style of downloading, wouldn't the server automatically download patches, thereby giving you your glitch free Spore while you can PLAY it?

Oh, sorrow! I really hope we don't have too wait! Spore is going to be the best game EVER! There can't be that many bugs or compatability problems... I saw part of it at the MacWorld convention... I can't wait... tears.

We only saw a small bit of the creature editor and the content browser at macworld! And even the editor seem to have a missing piece of the UI. Theres so much more of the game that we haven't seen in a long time so it could be buggy as hell for all we know.

The problem with judging the polish of a game based on videos is developers only show demos or videos if they are reasonably sure of that section. If the game crashed mid demo that would ruin the confidence in the game and maybe the company.

Bring it ???
Keep in mind this is a game that covers alot of game . Will is doing things that others had no spine to do , make a game that is different . Even from the begining of games there away was and , will be delays and more delays , even cancels .
Keep in mind also that its EA , A big game mogul whom gives little care as to what you or anyone else thinks ( Besides the stock holders ) .
So i defense of WW hes working with a big , no huge game and , EA ( Bad move there ) .
What will be said once the game does launch ? Great game or holy crap this game is bug city , We've all seen this more times than not .

I hate how EA keeps delaying spore. They should have waited about two more years before they announced spore to the world in E3 2005. The suffering they have caused us started as early as 2004 for some people. Now it's 2008 and they're still delaying spore. I hope they have it done by april but I'm not crossing my fingers
