The Amazing Spider-Man 2 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Video Game Thread - Part 1

That is true. I don't understand why they can't replicate the swinging from Spider-Man 2: the game.

 

[Oscorp]

I would never preorder a Spider-Man game as long as it's under Activision.

 

[FN Spider-man]

Oscorp I was already called on it and the guy handled way better than you did.
Do not ever call my comment ignorant

I hope they are doing the closest thing now, and hopefully better

I'd rather not have them copy the SM2 swinging. It was plain simple and boring. They should do a proper physics based swinging this time around where the webline has its own physics (it stretches etc. and isn't always a straight line: SM2 had straight lines when swinging). This is very well possible & easy to do these days so I don't get why they didn't do it for their last title.

They can merge the best of both styles
When I play Spider-Man 2, the web stretch down a bit affected by Spider-Man's weight
Normal swinging didn't allow turning, it was always a straight line
The other style of swinging allowed curving and turning very well

Awkward moment when a GTA:SA has a better web swinging mod than the web swinging in ASM.

Lol it actually is better.

 

[Picard Sisko]

GTA: SA is really a Spider-Man game in disguise. OMG, that is actually really awesome.

 

[Nicko-Ray]

So funny.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Now I feel like getting that game again just to mod it like this

 

[Spider-Dude23]

Whoever created it is a genius. I mean, if a random guy can do this, why can't a whole team of game devs?!
The web swinging mechanic better be glorious in ASM2.

 

[kbrooksgohan]

The only thing they got right is it attaching to something. The bottom of the swing and momentum boost from Spiderman 2 is just as important.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I take back what I said about getting that game again
I don't like the awkward sluggish animation in that game

 

[kbrooksgohan]

They keep leaving out the momentum at the bottom and the precise turning from sm2. Its not enough to have to press x at the bottom. Thats not going to work anymore. They didn't seem to understand that automated momentum doesn't work.

 

[Repulsor Blast]

calling it now: webs will attach to buildings in the new game but other than that, it will still be a crappy system, with a lack of momentum and other plausible real-world physics ala spider-man 2 and to a lesser extent, ultimate spider-man.

they will probably just punch in the code for web of shadows' swinging system. beenox don't ever go the extra yard.

 

[Airnick]

I'm pretty sure beenox confirmed that webs will attach to buildings right?

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Yeah, they did say that on Twitter

 

[kbrooksgohan]

I'm leaning towards what Repulsor is saying. Its like they listen sometimes but they dropped the ball on the most important aspects. I even asked them about swing speed for the 1st game and Dee said there was no speed boast....u just go fast right off the bat. They have some ok ideas and I appreciated Shattered but its like they don't have the core of what makes Spiderman games fun. I am really anxious to see how they fix the free roam and what other fixes they add to the not so great elements of Asm

 

[Spider-Aziz]

It will be unfortunate, but if happens, not unexpected

 

[A Necessary Evil]

Am I the only one who didn't hate TASM's web-slinging mechanics?

 

[spider_shadow]

Best spidey final boss ever!!This guy was nightmarish as a kid and still scares the crap out of me..

They should honestly remake this game with PS4 graphics..

Haha same here man I was literally scared of him lol.

I think it's decent.They just need to fix sky swinging(Bring back Spiderman 2 mechanics) and make spidey look a lot fluider(is that even a word?) when doing poses and also allow poses when in midair.

Oh good god yes please, also Enter Electro, and gives us a freakin' Spider-Man game with Goblin in it. That always has annoyed me, how under-used gobby is in the games. I'm sure a SM3 would have made decent use of him.

Just say "a lot more fluid"
