Twitter Updates Removed From Uncharted 2
Naughty Dog's 140 character version: "Heard concerns about Twitter chapter updates for UNCHARTED 2. We've just disabled it but will patch soon to reactivate with frequency limits"
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, which launches on October 13, was planning to have a feature where players could link their Twitter account to their game and then have game updates automatically posted on their Twitter page. With press copies out, pandemonium has already started as there have been multiple automatic posts per hour. In response, developer Naughty Dog's Co-President Evan Wells has announced that the feature has been temporarily axed.
"We obviously want to provide the best experience for everybody, so for the time being we’ve disabled Twitter updates on chapter completions," said Wells. "The option will still exist in the menus when the game ships on 10/13, but if activated, it will do nothing. Some time after the game has shipped, we’ll release a patch to reactivate the feature, but with a limit on the frequency of updates."
