OK, so I bought the Spore Creature Creator, knowing full well that my dial-up connection would cause some problems. I expected slowness; I could deal with that. But I've been having other problems that don't make sense; they may or may not be related to my connection. Has anyone else experienced something like the following:
1. Sometimes I will make a creature, and next time I log in, it's not there anymore. Just gone. It's still in the "Creatures" section on My Documents, but in the game, I can't find it. It's happened twice now, and only when a creature gets a lot of comments in a short amount of time.
2. I created a creature that went through a couple design changes. So I had to upload it three times. Now when I see it on my game, the comments section says: "No comments allowed on Maxis-created content." But /I/ made it. What the h**l?
3. Other times, creatures disappear from my library days after I make them, for no reason. I don't know what would cause that.
4. I hear you can download other players' creatures to your game by saving that creature's .PNG picture to your Spore Creations in My Documents, but I've tried that twice now, and it's there, but it doesn't show up in the game.
I'm getting very frustrated with the way Spore is behaving. Hopefully the full game won't have these problems; or it might have them worse. Does anyone go through the same thing, or does anyone know what the cause might be?
