Playstation Spider-Man (PS4) - Part 3

[Spidey_62]

I'm annoyed by the fact that you can't manually land on a car during car chases. There have been so many times where I manage to jump onto a car before it takes off, only to be thrown onto the ground. Sometimes I'm swinging after a car and the triangle prompt won't show up, but I'm not allowed to land on it. Makes those crimes feel too automatic.

Also, it seems impossible to dodge bullets while chasing a car sometimes. Anyone else get this problem?

Yeah, I don't get why thugs in the back of cars get this incredible aim when no matter how fast you're swinging, or how far away, or if you're dodging, it also annoys me.

I updated. I’m missing 3 suits to platinum the game. One is the photo one, that I didn’t think I needed to 100% what are the other 2 not listed with the normal ones through the game?

 

[Spider-Aziz]

That annoys me sooooo much. Thugs suddenly turn into Bullseye when they are in a runaway car, speeding through the streets, with a moving target that is swinging from building to building.

Yeah, I don't get why thugs in the back of cars get this incredible aim when no matter how fast you're swinging, or how far away, or if you're dodging, it also annoys me.

Reminds me of those annoying blue bullets in Ultimate Spider-Man, I hate those undodgeable projectiles.

I looked up a youtube video and it shows the 3 DLC suits...which is weird that it effected the regular game trophy?

I get regularly hit by them, even when the car has made a turn and I'm shielded by a building.

 

[UltimateWebhead]

You know that models actually exist right? They are normal people. And beyond that, women with model looks exist, that aren't actually models. My point is why did they want to change this? Why did they think there was something wrong with the traditional MJ, Silver Sable and Blackcat? I liked all of these characters as they were, but clearly these people didn't.

I want a definitive Spider-man game, I don't want people who don't like the source material trying to impose their standards on me.

I'm not totally against this iteration of MJ but many times throughout the game she feels forced in and her gameplay is not good at all. Only the mission at the museum is worth mentioning. And I would have liked a 616 adaptation much better than what we got. Unfortunately this version of MJ feels way too much like Carlie Cooper. Which again, I point to the fact that Slott and Gage were involved with the development of this game.

 

[UltimateWebhead]

Well, I finally achieved platinum yesterday. Hands down this is the best Spider-Man video game imo. Though there are a handful of things that need improvement this is a solid first outing and I'm beyond happy. The story, combat, traversal and voice acting are all high points. I really loved the characterizations of Peter, May, Otto, Norman and JJJ. Especially the relationship between Otto and Peter. This is one of my favorite Ock adaptations ever. I really didn't care for MJ much in this...she was just OK. And although Miles was a good character I'm not excited about him having powers. Overall though this was a wonderful game and I'm looking forward to NG+ and the DLC.

Have you found all 50 secret photo ops? I think you get a suit for that.

For me, MJ hurts this game more than anything else. She should've had 1 or 2 missions max. Spidey already had Yuri to work with. If he needed a connection at the Bugle, they could have used Robbie Robertson (a very underused character). The game would have been so much better with a 616 MJ, who is managing a night club or a fashion house. She could still help Spider-man by scoping out people/places and feeding him info. There could have been a break in or something where Mary Jane grabs one of Peter's Web shooters out of a drawer and defends herself. That would have made her seem capable without turning her into a nagging superhero wannabe that constantly puts herself in peril.

I do like the idea of playing as other characters, but it could've been handled better. One Mary Jane mission, one Yuri mission, One Robbie mission. More Parker missions.

I messed up and I did miss a suit, and I noticed it required 4 more challenge tokens. Luckily I had 2 bomb challenges that I was able to get a gold and silver, giving me what I needed. 100% game now onto the DLC.

 

[CB Fan]

I just finished the main story and wow. Loved darn near everything though there are some things I hope are improved upon in the next one. Peter and most of the supporting cast were great. I’m not sure why they changed MJ so much instead of just allowing her to be a new girlfriend who is simply not from the comics. Can’t wait to see where the Osborn’s story goes in the next game.

 

[TheWallCrawler]

You guys have a favorite suit? I probably use the homecoming suit most often, or the advanced

 

[Erzengel]

I played Act I and part of Act 2 with the Iron Spider Suit. Act 2 into Act 3 with the "Black" Spider-Man 2099 suit. Then I went back to the classic suit for the remainder of Act 3 until you change for the final mission.

 

[Drizzle]

For me it's a three way tie between the Classic suit that you start out with, the Advanced suit, and the Stark suit. I played through most of the story with the Advanced suit though.

 

[Nardz937]

The classic, MK IV Armor, Stark suit and Homemade.

Honestly, the advanced suit I've only used for no more than a minute when the game first gave it to me. It's not bad, but I just prefer anything resembling the original that has the popping red-and-blue colors only.

 

[The Slang]

It would be the classic or Stark suit. Other than those, Scarlet Spider, Mk III and the Dark Suit are the only ones I like. The Dark suit has some nice detail close up.

 

[BrollySupersj]

So I haven't bought the DLC yet, still too busy with Assassin's Creed Odyssey. But I am aware of the fact that the new suits don't have suit powers.

Is anyone else incredibly disappointed by this?

 

[Nathan]

Not really. The only suit power I am using is the default one.

 

[lefthookvillain]

Classic Suit & Advanced mostly.
I often change to Punk, Scarlet, Black/Red, Stark and random ones when I want to change it up.

I think the blue 2099 needs the webbed armpits. When you're swinging around now, all you see is a solid blue costume from the back. It's too plain.

 

[The Slang]

Not really. The only suit power I am using is the default one.

You only use the default suit power? Have you tried out 'Concussion strike'? Very effective, makes you feel more like Spider-man. I alternate between these:
*Concussion strike
*Quad damage
*Arms race
*Iron arms

 

[Spidey_62]

I like the classic and advanced suits the best, mostly in the advanced.

Sometimes I enjoy wearing the last stand suit, the punk suit, Ben Scarlet Spider, or ESU suits to swing around.

 

[Ninjablade]

I tend to use the Classic, Advanced, Stark, Armor mk VI, and then white 2099 the most. I played through a majority of the story in the Armor Mk. IV. Waiting to see all the new suits for the DLC before I jump into the ng+.

I only ever use the spiderbot suit power. Helped make tedious encounters go buy faster.

I agree. Making MJ more like her 616 counterpart would have been ideal. Too bad they turned her into a Carlie Cooper esque character. And I would have loved to see Spider-Man working with Robbie.

You guys have a favorite suit? I probably use the homecoming suit most often, or the advanced

My favorites are the classic, advanced and Black Cat gift suit. I use those three the most by far however I will also use Noir, Homecoming, Ock, Secret Wars, 2099, Big Time, Last Stand and Scarlet.

So I haven't bought the DLC yet, still too busy with Assassin's Creed Odyssey. But I am aware of the fact that the new suits don't have suit powers.

Is anyone else incredibly disappointed by this?

Yes. We're paying for this extra content so I would prefer to get more for my money. I only use about three of the suit powers as is so I would have liked more options.

 

[Nathan]

Instead of getting suit powers, I wish each suit would actually change the gameplay in minor ways. For example, instead of being a suit power, Spider-Punks guitar should have been used during his finishers. Kaine's suit should have added his stinger to the combat, changing combos up a bit and maybe the Iron Spider suit would extend its mechanical legs, when you reach a combo count of 50+, giving you an extra oomph during combat, until you drop your combo. I just don't really like suit powers having to be manually activated and then you have to wait again until the super meter fills. Overall most of the suit powers should have been passives in my opinion. Like Spider-Noir making you harder to detect allowing for easier stealth, instead of being a power that needs to be activated.

 

[lefthookvillain]

Yes! I would definitely prefer new finishers over new powers. Give us the same finishers, but randomly sprinkle in a couple new ones per suit. That would be beautiful.
