Hey Spore Fans -
We wanted to let you know that we've been hearing your concerns about the online authentication mentioned earlier this week. I didn't want to head into the weekend without getting back to you with some information about how Spore is planning on using this new system.
A few things we wanted you to know:
-- We authenticate your game online when you install and launch it the first time.
-- We'll re-authenticate when a player uses online features, downloads new content or a patch for their game.
-- The new system means you don't have to play with the disc in your computer. And if you are like me, always losing discs, this will be a huge benefit.
-- You'll still be able to install and play on multiple computers.
-- You can play offline.
We do hope that players will play online - sharing creatures, buildings and vehicles with other players is something that is unique to Spore and one of the coolest features of the game. Every day, when I play the Creature Stage, I get to see wacky and awesome new creatures from my Buddies on the team coming over the hill at me and I can't wait to see what happens when our creative, passionate community starts sharing their creations.
I'd love to write more - but I need to get back to work. We've got a game to finish. :-)

Does this mean that we do not have to re-authenticate every 10 days and just when we share stuff online (use the online features)? Please answer soon :0)
