Space phase: Earth

[Optimizer]

Has anyone encountered Earth during the Space phase?

Some people have. Look around. I believe Leonel posted a guide on where to find the Sol system.

This is the best video guide I've seen for it: http://gamextract.com/?p=2327

I watched the video just now and easily found Earth right away. I hadn't bothered before. I entered 3-4 random wormholes 'til I was relatively close. Finding Earth gives you an achievement. I busted the planet with a planet buster and got another achievement called "Oh the humanity!". BOOM. Earth is gone. Well, it's okay, I didn't save the game. You don't need to save to have the achievement

I'll have to do it with a race named the Vogons.

Making Vogons! That would be awesome!

Please post pictures of your Vogons!

I have hoped for Earth to contain real Earth creatures and even humans.

But maybe that could be seen as a task for the player.

From what I remember from Leonel's posts and screenshots (lost somewhere on page 2 I guess, cant find the thread!), the Earth is discovered as a T-1 planet due to all our pollution or something I guess that avoids the problem of needing realistic humans and earth creatures. I believe Leonel terraformed it and put a human-like species on it in his game. Also, the planet had kinda shrunk! It looked like you could walk across North America in about 20 seconds, and Europe was just a smudge of sandbanks

There were creature thingies on my Earth, not just plants. They were just random sporepedia creatures.

 

[GoodGame]

I've found Earth too, and the creatures and plants are totally random like any other planet.

My Earth was T-1 as well, and in a totally random but cool coincidence the large trees were called Maplee or something and looked like Earth trees, and an herbivore was Giraffe.

I put down a colony in Antarctica and Russia and proceeded to terraform all of the Sol system to be a massive economic center.

Which spice does earth have in your games? I haven't found earth yet.
