Fuse Finally Looking Like a Formidable Title: New Co-Op Details and Screen Shots

Today, via their website for Fuse, Insomniac, fleshed out more about how working together benefits all and why its looking like Fuse is going to be the Co-Op game that gamers have been looking forward to for a long time; saying in a press release: “In the game, you earn Fuse points that you can redeem for weapon and character upgrades. One of the most efficient ways to do this is by working as a team to discover unique combos to eliminate enemies. Simple example: Shooting through Dalton’s Magshield to take-down an enemy nets both you and Dalton bonus Fuse points. Well, we had a solid number of unique combinations for y’all to discover, but lately we have really fleshed the system out."

Fuse's issue was that the initial trailer showed a comedic, buddy-merc vibe which looked really engaging. Now its gone.

i want Overstrike, not Fuse.
IG are getting it wrong with this one i can feel. more i see less i want

AhmadSA4104d ago

People need to stop bitching about the overstrike trailer and take this game for what it is and not what it isn't. If Insomniac didn't show that trailer nobody would be saying that this looks generic.
The game looks fantastic.

Rockefellow4104d ago

I would have liked to see how the original concept panned out, but you're right-- it's evolved into something that still looks exceptionally good. And in watching the trailers, it still has quite a bit of humor to it.

MikeMyers4104d ago (Edited 4104d ago )

Some people just have issues with change in general. Overstrike looked like Team Fortress and I'm hoping that Fuse can distinguish itself from the rest of the crowd.

To those who don't want to give it a chance, oh well. Your loss if it actually turns out to be a fun game.

isarai4104d ago

It's the same concept, just different aesthetic. Is slight change in aesthetic REALLY that important to people? really? The game actually looks like it could be one of the best co-op games this gen, and it's pissing me off that so many people are dismissing it simply because it isn't cell shaded anymore when this is potentially the co-op game so many people have been asking/waiting for, the concept of the game is still the same, even all the characters are the same. All i know is i'm more than likely getting it because i haven't had a good long lasting coop experience since Uncharted 2

Unicron4104d ago

It was never cell shaded though. People are making up a game they never even saw footage from.

Mr-SellJack4104d ago (Edited 4104d ago )

well that gr8!i just rented resistance 2 and it was the best rental i ever made even more than Uncharted 2 it was so damn fun.Insomniac make the most fun games ever aswell as the best weapons ever

Report: Sexual Misconduct Investigation Conducted at EA, Suspects Named and What They Did Revealed

EA senior staff has been investigated for sexual misconduct involving female coworkers, and these said people have been named publicly.

isarai2d ago

Aye just call Phil, i mean he somehow made Bobby Kotick's scandal disappear and gave him a few million dollar high five on the way out.

Cacabunga1d 20h ago

I wonder if it will be censored with some in game ads.

XiNatsuDragnel2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

EA about to go down like Activision and then Phil saves the day saying.this is good for the industry and consolidation will help create competition. /s.

ravens522d ago

What's up with all these horny creeps. You gon be horny, fine. Just not at work take care of that shit before you go in. Rub one out if you have to. Don't be a creep at all. ESPECIALLY at work. But don't be one AT ALL.

Extermin8or3_1d 20h ago

I mean part of the issue is that things transpired outside of work....

KwietStorm_BLM1d 19h ago

You think deviants care where they are? Work sometimes makes it an even better situation for them because they can abuse their power.

mudakoshaka1d 4h ago

Nerds think they are Gods when they are making video games.

NotoriousWhiz2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

"it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed. [...] The victim still has to work with the people that harassed her."

Yep, EA is disgusting.

Extermin8or3_1d 20h ago

I mean the fact stuff happened outside of work puts EA in quite a difficult position legally. These women don't seem to have reported the matter to the police which kinda ties EA's hands on what they can do. If they don't file reports of the crimes then yeah from EA's perspective it is stuff that happened outside of work. The only exception is the guy that apparently referenced things in the slack channel for work, spending on what he said proving it may be very hard and he may well be able to get away with plausible deniability. I don't like EA and I think these people need to be dismissed but without any legal action being taken, EA can't really do much without risk of being sued themselves for unfair dismissal etc.

Well, anything to make those shareholders happy, I guess. They're all that matters in this industry nowadays.
