He sends them flying, but the sound effect of impact make me believe the developers chose to show Spider-Man pulling back on his attacks so he wouldn't make a bloody mess around.
 
As for the suit: I like it.

It's a better version of the TASM1 suit. I'm not huge on the white spider and I think it's a tad overtly complicated (like, why does the belt and torso piece not connect?? It's a half inch gap. Makes no sense)

But I can say with confidence that if the classic suit is available from the get-go: I'm never taking it off

I suspect the game will give you no choice but to accept the white spider logo suit, but I agree, IF the original classic is wearable at all times, it's what I'll be doing as well.
 
for me it was the white symbol that took me out of it. but seeing it more and more in motion ive gotten fond of it. not in my top favorite suits but i think its a decent design. Alot better than the TASM suit thats for sure

It looks like a bigger mess than that one ever looked.
 
im interested to know why you think so. this one doesnt look as busy as the one from the TASM imo.
What does "busy looking suit" mean? The boots in TASM 1 suit look like boots, and it's a simpler looking suit.

what i meant by busy was how the the red and the blue parts ran into each other on the gloves. he wore athletic sneaks and not boots bu the way in the movie.

anyway its not a big deal we just see it differently

This one doesn't even have boots--thats the point, their athletic shoes.

For me, the TASM suit has these strange yellow eyes that are mirrored no where else on the suit. At least the white spider is matched well by the white on his arms and eyes. The webbing is actually webbing and the gloves are not nearly as convoluted, either.

I don't hate the TASM suit, but it's got a handful of things changed for no apparent reason. This suit, less so, imo.
 
The white spider suit is not horrible, but I have a feeling that because it's somehow tied into the plot, I'm thinking you'll be forced to wear it. Maybe not though. If given the choice I'll probably never wear the white spider suit. Too many other suits rank way higher imo and are much better visually.

I expect to see the web tech connected to the tech suit, so it will probably be unavoidable to wear it if you want to experience the full creativeness with webs.

Understandable. Well, maybe not so much the lenses part.
 
I don't mind the white spider, I've gotten used to it. Not the worst it could be.

I think they already said in one of the recent interviews that you can wear whatever suit you want throughout the whole game if you so choose to because they want Spider-Man to reflect you. I'm guessing it'll be similar to Arkham Knight where you get the suit in game, and when people are talking about your suit it'll be the white logo one, but you can wear whatever you want throughout the story.

I think I'll play through the game once with their design, simply because I'm curious as to how it plays into the story.

Edit: I'm really curious as to what these other alternate suits they designed specifically for the game will look like. I'm guessing they'll just be the unused concept work from design stages. Both interesting and cool. Spider-Ham better make an appearance.

Our next Spider-Man video focuses on combat (this Wednesday). We end the week with another video detailing the little touches in the game (on Friday). The little touches video gives you audio of the open world, including a short clip of JJJ's talk show.
 
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.

Says they got some suits being made just for the game, I'm very interested to see those.

Yeah they mentioned that in passing a while ago. Interested what exactly that means. Scrapped designs for the advanced suit? Maybe references to past Insomniac games. A Captain Quark or Ratchet inspired suit would be incredible.

Cool, JJJ!

I hope they focus a bit on the villains at some point.

I would flip. I can see Peter playing Ratchet or even Spyro on his downtime.
 
Even if wearing the default costume isn't mandatory, I'm going to do it. It's supposed to be part of the plot and I don't want to break the immersion.
 
Apparently the white spider logo serves some purpose but Insomniac haven't revealed what it is yet.

I know that Mr Negative once used his powers to 'negatively charge' Spider-man, turning him evil, and inverting the colors of his suit into their photo negative version. Try inverting the colours of the new suit yourself. If the spider symbol were black, it would be hard to see once the colors are inverted, but a white logo works much better.

Maybe we'll have an option to play as evil Spider-man or something?

I don't think anything Spyro can happen because Activision (ironic, right?) owns the rights to the character. Shame too because Insomniac CREATED him.

That was a thought a while ago but apparently he creates the white spider suit before he ever meets Mr. Negative and they said the white on the suit is the most reinforced part.

Insomniac also won't reveal where Peter works until they game releases.

So I'm thinking Peter starts working somewhere new at the beginning of the game and this gives him access to some sort of new material he incorporates into his suit and thus creates his "advanced suit".

They also didn't show Game Informer the making of the new suit during their demo of the beginning of the game which makes me think the two are linked.

Does anyone know if there is fall damage?

Insomniac hasn't decided. Some fans made a poll to vote not long after that announcement and it was overwhelmingly positive on having fall damage.

So I hope Insomniac listened.

Because I agree.
 
One of the most impressive things for me among a wealth of impressive things is how they are recreating awesome Uncharted/GoW levels of cinematic action in an open world game that looks as good as those games.
