Speculating on Carnage being the main villain in this game.
I don't think we'll see Carnage but we will probably see Cletus Kassidy.

Here is how it goes.

One Universe: TASM 1 Film, TASM 2 Film, etc.
Another Universe: TASM 1 Film, TASM 1 Game, TASM 2 Game.

TASM 2 Game will be inspired by TASM 2 Film, thus it will feature Electro and possibly take other plotlines from the film.

 

[Spider-man95]

I hope it does have some similarities to the film other than just characters. But if they decide to go a different path it, whatever. I just hope this doesn't confuse people.

That's exactly the point I was trying to make.

Wouldn't worry about that too much. Movie-based games are always different from the films they are based on, especially going back to all the SM games for the Raimi films.

Doc Ock was such a small part of SM2: The Game.

 

[The Shape]

If the games are it's own universe unconnected to the films, I wish they'd just focus on making a Spider-man series that rivals the Arkham series instead of adhering to what the films are.

 

[JOE]

I think it's a complete mess. Didn't enjoy the first one and I have a feeling I won't enjoy this one either.

Well I do agree here. But I think the reason why they want to connect the games to the movies might have something to do with marketing, but I don't know.

Exactly, but Activision wants movie-tie ins, it's probably easy money. Though they would probably sell more if they actually put hard work into it.

I am thinking Venom will be the final boss of the game, because Spidey has a regular web and a symbiote web in his hand while web-swinging in the trailer.

 

[Picard Sisko]

Well if Carnage is involved, maybe Venom will show up, too. The fun thing about video games is that you don't have to worry about the "too many villain" crap like the movies do. Just make it fun and that's that.

 

[ThatMarvelGuy]

I`m colour blind but i did n`t see the black symboite webbing?? Does that mean we will wear symboite black suit in the story if we are bad??

 

[Picard Sisko]

It looked like the webbing was just darker because of the lighting.

 

[Oscorp]

I LOVE Kraven, he's one of my favourite villains of all comics. So I love that he'll have a major role (hopefully main villain by the end). I have a feeling that they'll connect him to the story in an awesome way!

That's however also why I don't like Kraven's look. He looks very boring in design. I'm glad he has pants but he should have the lion mane on instead of a boring jacket. And there's something about his face, the beard, that looks wrong.

The gameplay looks extremely similar to the first game. I hope they've improved more than it looks like. The web swinging looks like a faster version of the previous version.

The Graphics overall look similar to ASM, but I do think the characters look better now Graphics wise.

The story wasn't what anyone could've expected with Kraven's role and I'm very much looking forward to that! His voice actor sounds great! The tone seems great! I love how Beenox chooses different main villains for each game and not the Joker route of the Arkham games.

No the webbing was definitely black.

 

[GENERAL RAAM582]

Oh, I see it now. Hmmm, interesting.

 

[Picard Sisko]

Still hard to make out. Why would the webbing be white on one side and black on the other? Unless that is supposed to symbolize the symbiote's possible role in the game, that could very well just be lighting. It is dark on the ride side but gets lighter again.

It's showing the Hero/Menace function, methinks. Notice that the black web is also a different design, not just a different color.

But it's black here also.

 

[Oscorp]

I Think that you use the different kinds of webbings and have cartridges for them or something, that you can chose to have in one web shooter and regular in the other, so you can use both manually in combat.

Ah, good point. I'll have to see some more footage but I am more convinced that there IS black webbing.

 

[spider_shadow]

There should be a target system in the game where if you are trying to go to swing from one building to another(in front of you) then there should be a crosshair that allows you to choose an area to swing.Of course,you need to be in a certain range to choose that area.Too far and web won't go that much distance.Once the area is chosen,Spidey won't automatically swing there like what we saw in TASM the game .He will still stay there.There will be a button to jump/get on the ledge depending on if you are walking or running and then move analog stick to get Spidey over the ledge and once there he will start swinging.

Like this,

Also,if you are running you can just jump from building and choose an area to swing in mid air and at the same time you can choose the pose you want to do.Now when you are choosing an area you must choose an area that's in direction of Spidey's head like in the crane scene of Amazing Spiderman and if it's not within certain range you will fall to death.

[YT]MrK61S_axCE[/YT]


There is also that thing if you are swinging in straight path(Example on multiple cranes) then depending on your kick power you can reach higher and higher based on where you press a certain button.

Ok,so back to building to building swinging,once you start swinging to the building in front of you, if you don't control your speed then Spidey should ram into the wall and he should let go of web and fall down and depending on height of building,if he falls his health will be down.

 

[Spider-man95]

I just realized that Electro in the trailer looks even more like Mr Freeze from Batman and Robin then the movie. HAHA XD

Wish he looked more like this.

Maybe he will look better in the game than the trailer.

But I am scared about how Peter will look.

 

[Marvel Spider]

Not expecting Peter to look anything like Andrew. Especially since they made it a point to avoid showing his face in the trailer.

 

[Repulsor Blast]

some article on cbm saying that yesterday's trailer was last gen and the one today is next gen, despite it being the exact same trailer.

also lifts one of my posts from here verbatim.

you gotta wonder about people sometimes...

 

[GENERAL RAAM582]

We had another trailer today?
