Thanks man. I'm gonna try that.
I agree with everything you said. I really hope Beenox does something about this because like you say, there's no point to having a free roam unless things are happening. We're finally back in NYC with Spidey...I've got room to stretch my webs...wait, what's that you say, no more crimes in Manhattan?? Too bad they don't have new game+.
I'm really hoping that they do something. I sent Dee Brown a tweet asking him about it. I'll let you know if there's a response.
There was a video interview with a couple of the developers from Beenox and they stated that there will be DLC in the upcoming months and although they weren't specific, they basically said they are gonna be supporting the game for a while. Some of the DLC will be free (I'm guessing this will be the suits) and some won't (this will probably be the ability to purchase the preorder packages). I'm hoping they have more to offer with side missions and more crimes as well.
As far as I know, only the movie suit and the Red/blue Raimi suit take damage. I've tried with the only alt suit I have, the Kaine suit, and it never took damage.
