Spider-Man (PS4) - Part 2

[Rodrigo90]

Should’ve done that with the warehouse scene in BvS, but we knew Batman was killing blokes in fisticuffs, anyway.

Game Informer mentioned it's a little janky looking how he just snaps into the dive mode, but they said because it's used to gain momentum while swinging, it feels great for Spidey to just plummet at a moments notice. They said it not having any build up or lead into the animation actually helped it in terms of gameplay.

But I agree--it's the least polished animation they've shown.

Maybe I'm being too nitpicky, but in a game like this, no matter how fantastical the skills/powers are, I would like for them look plausible because for myself that's tied directly to the control enjoyability. I would prefer that pressing L3 makes Spidey fall realistically into a dive motion. The air dive in SM2 was both pretty realistic looking and felt great. And how it's done in this new game breaks the immersion of being Spider-man

I'm still thrilled to play this. It's like I'm getting brand new Air Jordans, and these elements are small pebbles in the shoes.

And what do you think this game now that we got more footage? Personally I think it looks great, though I have a few nitpicks like some designs and few animations

Apart from the crappy Norman design, I've been loving everything I've seen so far.

Peter looks rather creepy to me.

I just played SPider-man 3 (07) a little bit and the web swinging in this one is very similar to that. I hope it comes around to being more like Spider-man 2.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I enjoyed Web of Shadows from day 1, the combat really impressed me back then. Plus in that universse, Spidey has orangic webbing, win for me right there.

But again, another game with lack of extra costumes. Or trophy support. If they were to re-release WOS with trophy support, I'd buy it.

Nothing in it made me think the webs are organic, not even the symbiote. Perhaps the lack of Venom swinging gives that impression.
Ground combat with the red suit is unimpressive.

If you play the Wii port you will have extra suits instead of sidekicks.

This is killing me (no pun intended)

Spoiler

Ideal.

The webs being organic was a piece of info given by the developers in Q&A back before the game released. Of course I didn't find that out till years later.

Anyway, anyone hopeful for an alternate shader of the upgraded costume with a black and red spider?

 

[XtremelyBaneful]

I like the boxart

 

[XtremelyBaneful]

Haha, he *did* really want to use Kraven in BP originally until he found out he couldn't.

which is pretty stupid on Sony's behalf. Now that BP is a megahit, they should be more lenient on using him for BP2.

 

[spiderman2]

The North Carolina studio is already working on a new game. That's probably a new Ratchet.

I didn't realize they had more then 1 studio. Could it be them already working on a sequel though and not a new ratchet and clank?

 

[spiderman2]

Spider-Man always loves his cranes

So sick

 

[spiderman2]

So what's everyone's favourite Spidey game so far? Mine are Spider-Man PS1, SM2, USM, SD and ASM1. Then WoS and SM3 360. ASM2 was a huge disappointment.

Spider-Man 2 and Ultimate Spider-Man are by far my favorite 2. WOS had great great combat but rest was not that good. Liked Shattered demisions but didn't love.

I didn't know that. I guess it's cool to have one using the webshooters of before Brand New Day that are gone without much of an explanation, or at least one that I remember.


Right now I think I'd prefer the white to stay white, so I don't wish for black and red emblem modding.

So after having two years to sit on it, how do you guys feel about the suit? Any changed opinions?

 

[Nathan]

Still prefer the classic.

 

[BrollySupersj]

Change the white to black and red then I'm good.

 

[The Shape]

I really like the suit in this game, but I'm a sucker for Ben Reilly-esque takes on the spider-suit.

 

[Nathan]

I hope the game will have the actual Ben Reilly costume as a craftable suit.

Spoiler

I warmed up to it rather quick, and I am now happier knowing that the classic suit is the default suit until the story present us with this one.

I hope the game will have the actual Ben Reilly costume as a craftable suit.

I agree, if you mean the one that Peter's daughter chose to wear and not Ben's Scarlet-Spider outfit.

Its grown on me, didn't like it when first seen but I think that was just 'oh, it's not the classic look' but would prefer the black spider logo but can understand the game wanting to set itself apart.

 

[Spidey_62]

First time I saw it was the second he swung into frame in the teaser trailer and I was taken aback by the white symbol, wasn't sure how to feel about it but then it quickly grew on me. It's still classic Spidey with a few unique touches that work, like the lack of boots I thought was supposed to be communicating a more athletic look and then they confirmed that, same for my thinking with the white parts being the most reinforced. It's stuff that makes sense and I appreciate that.
