Yeah but you don't really notice it too often. Plus swinging over the buildins in the sky isn't as fun as swinging through and round them.Aarowbeatsdragon said:is it true that his webs stick to the sky?Sean Hollyman said:

The game gets really good later on when you
Uuuuuuuug...
LOSE YOUR POWERS AND HAVE TO RUN LIKE FUCK.
Uuuuuuuug...
In Spider-man Web Of Shadows his webs connected to the air. If you were in a fight on a roof top with no other buildings around you could still swing about. However one you were out of combat they restricted that slightly, but you could press LB to climb up the web and you'd see it sticking to thin airAarowbeatsdragon said:
I reckon they did this to make swinging easier though, if the web is stuck to a building you're going to swing towards the building, which was annoying in Spider-Man 3 because I was forever swinging sideways, but I found Web of Shadows swinging to be better.
I know you're not throwing a hissy fit about it but some people are claiming they won't buy the game because swinging above buildings ruins the immersion.
How about you don't use the webs when you are that high then?
ah i never actually played web of shadows! oh dont get me wrong thats not gonna stop me from getting it, i mean theyve made it so that you cant go over central park or the ocean so thats grand, but one of my friends wont shut up about it everytime i mention buying the game so i was just hoping he was wrong so i could shut him up =.='MarkDavis94 said:
Web of Shadows had a lot going for it, but meh it could have been better. People mentioned how annoying Spider-Man's voice was, I thought it was just the internet being the internet. Holy fuck they weren't lying, it was irritating when he was in his Red Suit, especially when talking to Mary-Jane. Also when the Symbiote Army invaded Manhattan the frame rate dropped so much.Aarowbeatsdragon said:
I'm not getting this game till July 13th but what I have seen of it looks good and it's been getting some pretty positive reviews which is good because even when the Spider-Man games get slated I still enjoy them so this one shouldn't dissapoint
Let's be honest, how tedious was web zipping across Central Park in Spider-Man 3 hahaSean Hollyman said:Actually you CAN go over central park..Aarowbeatsdragon said:
Very, and you always had to be careful to not land in the pond..MarkDavis94 said:Let's be honest, how tedious was web zipping across Central Park in Spider-Man 3 hahaSean Hollyman said:Actually you CAN go over central park..Aarowbeatsdragon said:
Why are they using over-the-shoulder camera angle? It's not a shooter. You're not aiming a gun at anyone. What the hell were they thinking?
It's... What I expected. Short story (13 missions), lots of collectables, fun webswinging.
But the combat.
Dear god the combat.
You know in Arkham City how the combat was really smooth? This is not like that at all. anyone who has played both of them can probably explain this much better than I can. I can't really explain it but definitely rent it before you buy it if you liked AC's combat. If you played AC you'll see what I mean.
The perspective thing on walls and such isn't a big issue, but don't get this if you are prone to motion sickness. My friend almost vomited when she started swinging around Manhattan. One of the main things that bugs me is how the webs don't actually connect to buildings so there isn't much skill involved in webswinging, but again, that's a small issue.

I've heard it's not particularly amazing, despite what they might be telling you.
Hmm, I wonder if someone could sue them for false advertising in that regard?
captcha: pie are round. Easily the weirdest captcha I've ever seen.

But is it as good as Spider-Man 3?
It's easier to render stuff at 30fps when Spidey's big fat ass is in the way, probably. That's why weapon models get bigger and bigger in console shooters. It's all in pursuit of framerate, because the Xbox in particular is getting on in years. A lot of trickery and cheating goes on. Some of it is impressive - Alan Wake, for example, which just flat-out didn't render what wasn't on the screen - but then you get stuff like, making character and weapon viewmodels bigger.Adam Jensen said:
I guess it's to make the swinging feel more intense, with a better sensation of speed when everything is rushing past you in mid air. Not a bad idea in and of itself I don't think, but I did also wonder when I first saw it how it might also make things clumsier by limiting your perspective.Adam Jensen said:
Love the game, have barely stopped playing it since I got it on Friday. Tons of fun, there are some clear problems with it but I can see past them. It's a bit short too which is a shame, but there are tons of side objectives. Worth buying if you like the other games!
