Outernauts' Viral Features Removed Due to "Negative Feedback"
Multi-platform co-op shooter Fuse isn't the only game at Insomniac to see extensive design and gameplay changes. CEO Ted Price told SPOnG that the studio's Facebook game, Outernauts, has been altered dramatically to remove the 'spammy' nature of its social features.

"With Outernauts, our goal was to make a game for more hardcore players, and we got some pretty strong, negative feedback about the viral aspects of the game - the “spamminess” of the game," Price said. "We’ve since been rectifying that.

"We’ve been removing a lot of that stuff - now, when you go back and play it, it’s a very different experience. The energy system has completely changed. And that’s what’s great about that platform - you can change it daily. And we are responding quickly to the feedback we’ve got from players. So I hope people go out and give it another shot."
