Will Darkspore be available to play offline?
I loved playing Darkspore, it took Spore to a new level. It left some of the great features of Spore and combined it with an online game with a great plot. I used to play the game with my family while I was overseas, it was nice to be able to play a game together even while so far away. I was however sad to discover that the server had been taken offline (it was unfortunate I never received an e-mail notice before hand), and now I can't play at all. I know servers for this kind of things are expensive to maintain, but why take the server down if there is no offline option? I still see the game sold in stores; so now I'm warning friends not to buy since it is, at the moment, a worthless investment. I spoke with a game advisor and they suggested that I post this here to help gain attention/support for the matter.
Suggestions:
Offline option
Monthly/yearly/lifetime server subscriptions like other mmos to help pay for the server costs
Hi,
Noite about our games that will be taken offline can be found on our Service Updates page. Usually there is also an in-game or Origin related message.
At the moment I am not aware of any plans to continue Darkspore in another form. However, we would always love to receive feedback from our fans to see if we can change those plans in the future.
I am glad to hear that you've found joy in the game while it lasted. I was sad to see it go, but I certainly enjoyed it while it lasted.
Have a nice evening,
