Spidey's swinging looks pretty stiff and slow.

I like in the combat however how Spidey attacks one guy and immediately after takes down another one in the same flow. Definitely looks AC to me.

It looks great. I like how they went for the realism instead of web hammers.

The belt doesn't bother me but I wonder...is the belt something you don't always have?

This is the first trailer/screenshots we've seen with a belt...all the previous ones had no belt. So maybe this is something you can purchase in the game and use? Or is it part of an upgrade?

I actually hope it's part of the story, something should happen to where he incorporates the use of a belt. Either way, it's a cool addition to his costume.

THREAD MANAGER!!!!!!!!!! *shakes fist furiously*

 

[UltimateWebhead]

I just watched the trailer again. Man, that combat looks sick and fun as hell. It's so acrobatic...I love the move where he hooks his feet around that dudes head and twists him to the ground. It reminded me a bunch of some of Catwoman's moves. Also that move where he grabs a soldier or thug bends backward and slams his head into the ground. lol. That just screams awesome...and WWE, but mostly awesome.

 

[craigdbfan]

Yeah the gameplay is looking good.

 

[spida-man]

I love how ppl keep finding new things to complain about lol.

I'm sure the webbing attaches to buildings. beenox knows fans want this. besides. not every single spidey game's trailer that shows of webswinging can u clearly visibly see what the weblines are attach to, even with SM2 the movie

 

[MrSpyder]

Spidey's swinging through the city looks phenomenal

It's difficult to tell at this point where the webs are attaching but in many of the shots, it looks like they are going straight up into the air and not towards a building. It's silly to complain about something we don't really know yet, I agree, but it's just an observation.

Spidey's swinging through the city looks phenomenal

It looks great IMO. Especially some of the shots where it looks like he is 'web-zipping' and the shot of him dive bombing towards the street looked pretty bad ass.

 

[Web face]

I wasn't complaining I was just asking because a couple people mentioned that the webs connect to the sky in the comments of the trailer and other places. I'm pretty sure the web zipping is connected to buildings judging by the trailer.

 

[Alchemyst]

The webbing will attach to buildings, that was an issue that had been addressed after the release of the first Spider-Man movie game. Now, as far as the trailers go, it's unclear what other buildings were around Spidey at the time, it could have very well been a building outside of our field of vision

 

[fireflyhatter]

I totally saw Kraven in there. And I'm pretty sure that voiceover was Norman Osborn.

Kraven?? What time in the trailer did he appear?

 

[Ultimatehero]

Spidey 62, why else include Morbius rather than some other scientist if not for villain potential?

To create Rhino...as he already stated.

 

[Ultimatehero]

To create Rhino...as he already stated.

BUT Morbius did not create Rhino in the comics. The game specifically chose him rather than John Doe scientist dude.

As a story-teller - even games have scripts - it makes absolutely no sense at all to introduce someone everyone knows to become a villain one day only to have him be some random scientist dude. He could have had any other name other than Morbius easily.

So once again, why is the scientist named Morbius and not John Doe if it's really that small part? He wouldn't be. It's Morbius because it's obviously going to lead into something big towards the end. And if it didn't - they would have just called him John Doe or some other scientist name involved in Spidey's universe who doesn't become a villain. That would have been EASY. Just from a story point, it makes absolutely no sense to have Morbius without having Morbius and I highly doubt he'll be in ASM 2 - so, once again, why if they're not going to use him? Just for the name? I highly doubt it - some other scientist name would have accomplished a connection to the comics if that's all they wanted to do.

It's called changing fiction. Rhino was never actually part rhino in the comics, so why did they make him that way here? Because they wanted to change it up. They're most likely doing the same thing with Morbius. Morbius was always a doctor in the comics, so when they needed a scientist to create Rhino, they decided to put Morbius there as a cameo rather than putting "John Doe." I'm not saying he WON'T be a vampire at one point, but in case he isn't, I'm telling you why.

But, just story-telling, it wouldn't make sense. There are TONS of scientists in the Spider-Man universe, even our hero is a scientist so it didn't necessarily need to be Morbius. It could have easily been one of those guys if they wanted to establish a strong connection like that.

It's like saying there will be a hired gun in the Spider-Man game named Flint Marco, but he won't be the Sandman - he'll just be Flint Marco because they just wanted his name instead of some random street thug because he's well known. It wouldn't make sense and it would feel like a cheat because there are dozen other just street thug names in Spidey's archives that they could have used to establish that same comics history connection.

They, more or less, gave us three villains in one slyly:

- Rhino
- Unknown "animal with human DNA" after Rhino fails
- Morbius (final boss, the mad scientist becomes his creation)

Now that's a classic Spidey story.

That's exactly what I'm saying. It's a cameo, for the fans. It's just establishes their existence in the universe.

Of course, it could be more, sure, but as it stands, I'm standing by it being a cameo.

 

[spider-noel]

The trailer was ****ing intense! Was really epic!
Love the design of rhino. And I'm totally cool with him having a belt. The graphics looked awesome in some parts but in others it looked a little.... ******. Although, they still have months to improve on that! the fighting was amazing. It really made me think of batman: ac. Web swinging was also brilliant. I'm impressed!

 

[TheWallCrawler]

Yeah me too! Though, I hate how they couldn't make the video hd, the blurry quality of the video doesn't make it easy to see how the game graphics work

Still doesn't make any sense. A writer wouldn't do that. I did the exact same thing with my Spidey fics from years ago - I did deep research into all the characters there are. And this guy does not need to be Morbius, there are HUNDREDS of other scientist names out there. The fans? Catch onto the smallest of details - even if the name was in there once in the comics - they catch on.

Why would you establish Flint Marco's presence in a more contained story -- when then you'll need to over-work yourself just to find some way to put him into the sequel and if he isn't? It'd be seen as a cheat. Also I highly doubt Morbius is going to be in ASM 2 the film working under Osborn. Why keep him around?

A cameo just raises way too many questions.
