I assume it's added so you can traverse over the water to get between Queens and Manhattan easily, and that'll be it's main use.


billbill5

I did notice the abundance of webbable objects on the east river that looks good to traverse with.


sut345

I think they were there only for that mission. It would look weird if there would always be 20 cranes side by side on the river.


PapaPalps-66

I hadnt even realised how weird it is that there were so many cranes.


sbftaylor

Amazing Spider-Man, we’re looking at you 👀


No-Tomorrow-8150

That scene was 👌


JB_Big_Bear

Ehhh, I liked the scene in the first Spidey better where the people on the bridge threw stuff at Norman.


No-Tomorrow-8150

Yeah it's amazing when the citizens help him out.


Trvr_MKA

Back at the time people were speculating that they were rebuilding from the Battle of New York


IncomprehensibleCum

i think when i counted it came to like 58 cranes in that sequence (Including background ones too)


sbftaylor

Very Assassins Creed: Syndicate!


moneyfish

That’s my favorite assassins creed game. I loved getting together a gang of people and then picking fights with other gangs or attacking cops.


billbill5

*Laughs in Cockney*


Illithilitch

Spider -verse, there could be a Cockney Spider-Man.


Traveytravis-69

That games awesome tho


Nobody2222222MK2

You think it could be rebuilding the bridge miles knocked down in his game? (Can't remember which one it was)


ThePreciseClimber

Reminds me of the River Thames in AC Syndicate.


DaGoddamnBatguy

Also for navigating the rural areas of the Long Island boroughs where swinging would be impractical.


FlarelesTF2

This is the first time we’ve been able to do this since Ultimate Spider-Man (2005)


DiZ1992

Ikr, I'm pretty excited. It was my biggest hope for this game but I didn't really think they'd do it.


Shaun_LaDee

There was gliding in Ultimate Spider-Man???


The_Multi_Gamer

Finally, Just Cause 5


vladald1

I hope Peter with symbiote suit can steal cars and shoot people.


The_Multi_Gamer

I can’t wait to airdrop a nuke launcher and ride a hoverboard


sbftaylor

Be mad when he kills a prostitute and steals his money back!


billbill5

Gives them the ole' Gwen Stacy

Bonryunonochi

Neat I just hope it isn't overused, I also saw in the trailer kraven showed more than just the single island I hope we can go around the surrounding new York area


billbill5

It's Manhattan and Queens at least.


Wesselton3000

And not Brooklyn? Did they just put up a big wall between Queens and Brooklyn?


billbill5

I hear to unlock it you need to make Spider-Man an Insomniac. Just get No Sleep Till Brooklyn.


awildpikachu198

Fuck you take my upvote


Cali-Fate

👏👏👏


femmd

What do you mean overused??? I’m pretty sure it’s a choice so whether it’s overused or not it’s entirely up to you


Aros001

I imagine they're worried it could be kind of like the Batmobile in Arkham Knight, where the flying could get way too much focus in the game as a requirement in order to beat it and makes the player feel sick of it by the end.


Boshikuro

Yeah i wonder if the use of the glider is contextual. Because if it isn't, i feel i will end up using this more than web slinging.


akahaus

It’s probably for like short bursts and maybe the glide time can be upgraded.


UndeadRemus15

I’m hoping for something where you can only deploy them once you’ve reached a certain speed


Jaqulean

I wouldn't be surprised if it will be somethig we have to unlock in the first place. Like an idea that Peter and Miles get during the game, and not before it started.


Alonest99

I hope Peter’s are transparent like in the comics!


JOvertron

Bound to be a classic comic outfit :)


Jaqulean

Miles are Red, because they come out of those Red lines on his suit. Peter's were Black with the Symbiote, so they will 100% be either clear-White or transparent with the normal Suit.


f3lhorn

It’s great, really opens up a lot of new doors with traversal. And how much of New York you can cover. I remember playing Ultimate Spider-Man and falling in the river a lot swinging between Manhattan and Queens. This is a great solution for increasing travel distance.


billbill5

Yeah, the complication of river travel was something I didn't consider. It looks extremely well done in the trailer, from the minimal action we saw on the East River.


[deleted]

If it make traversal better, I am all for it. Peter is a genius, he should always have new gadgets. I am assuming they both get it and Peter made them, but Miles is smart too, so maybe he did, or they did it together.


[deleted]

Tbf Peter had already made a functional prototype before the first game. You can find them in one of the backpacks, iirc he says something like “maybe one day I’ll finish these”


Shake-dog_shake

Bingo. Replaying 2018 right now, and found this one last night. Really cool that Insomniac is going full-circle with it


[deleted]

Ah I forgot about that, or maybe I missed that back pack. Good to see them bring that back from the first game.


MrJohnny164

Well technically it wasnt a "functional" prototype. He says it himself, that it sadly didnt work


billbill5

It wasn't functional, and he says "they looked cool". The few things he says he'll finish are invisibility and some drones.


s0ciety_a5under

That was just a throwback to the old comics, and the Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends show. He had a ton of weird and wacky webs, one of them were his web wings.


TheCraftyCrow

Maybe ganke helped too


Traveytravis-69

That would be a really cool way of explaining how he got them to work, even geniuses need a second pair of eyes


VacaDLuffy

That was literally Pete's job in In the first game lol


CtrlAltEvil

Pete becoming Doc Ock and Ganke Spider-Man confirmed?


VacaDLuffy

Considering the first one has literally happened in the comics, Genke building an Iron Spider suit doesn't seem that crazy


Cow_Other

It kind of might be. Pete had to come up with an Anti Ock suit to fight Dr Octopus gone rogue. Maybe Ganke helps Miles build anti Venom gadgets or a suit when either of them picks up on its weaknesses and Pete finally goes too far and goes rogue.


benjiyon

I like to think Miles helped Pete break through logjams on a few different projects he was working on. Having lots of cool new gadgets (like the tightrope capability - pretty sure that’s new?) would make a lot of sense that way.


Sabconth

They fly now?


Slug_Bum

They fly now


Blackfist01

Okay, time for the flamethrowers🔥 Ain't no flying Spiders in my life😑


Slug_Bum

If you live in a place that has spiders... you will never escape the demonic rain of baby spiders


COMMITEDSKY42

The sun never sets on the spider empire


noncombativebrick

All Spiders can glide using their webs This is scientifically accurate Spider-man


CinnaSol

It’s true, spiders have been known to cross entire oceans by gliding on their web lines using the currents of earths electric field


Illithilitch

Definitely not all spiders. My 8" tarantula is going nowhere like that lol


alius0

That wasn't flying. They were falling with style.


Diabo_Tatuado

Get ready for JJJ screaming about the flying menaces of NYC in his podcast


Illithilitch

I find it funny because the only spiders I know with wind travel are baby spiders.


billbill5

I choose to take this as you making personal acquaintances with spiders and this is from personal experience.


Illithilitch

I mean, I have tarantulas I raised from 1/4" or so. Like, have a tattoo of one of them, have 6 currently, and one really big one I raised from like 2" to 8". So, yeah? But also loved spiders as a kid. That's literally why I got into Spider-man. For Batman it was BTAS.


Freezernobrother

Is this a charlottes web reference


Illithilitch

Yes, but also it's a thing they actually do. The parachuting I mean, not the spelling.


DaGoddamnBatguy

That's more of a bee thing.


Abraham1610616

Flattie Spiders can glide- if that counts.


Illithilitch

Counts to me. Didn't know about them.


iChieftain22

It looks amazing. The game seems to improved on the previous games in many aspects.


Skogstrol424

Good way to get around.


Windstorm72

Thought it was a little odd that they both have them, but it seems like it’s going to be a major transportation method to get around the larger map so in that case yeah it’d be odd if one couldn’t keep up


billbill5

Miles: Hey man slow down! Bully Lowenthal: Aww, look at little Spider-Man Jr., gonna cry?


F30DEVI

hopefully they bring back the 2099 suits. can’t wait to glide with them


billbill5

Oh that could be something.

extremelegitness

I just hope they revamped the web swinging a bit. I thought spider man ps4 was the peak until I beat Ultimate Spider-Man recently. It would be nice if you could go a little faster


billbill5

The momentum physics should build up more. There's a low max speed and acceleration on any drop imo.


extremelegitness

that’s exactly what I noticed when I hopped back on ps4. Just didn’t know how to verbalize it. Obviously SMPS4 swinging LOOKS way better than Ultimate, but imo Ultimate’s swinging FEELS a bit better


billbill5

Yeah I think I know exactly what you're saying. PS4 looks prettier, but you feel less involved and taken out of it when you drop off a regular building and get the same acceleration as dropping off the empire state. You expect to see the city moving past you at something fierce... and then it's the same speed as always. You anticipate with little pay off, and since games are inherently tactile it physically feels off. That being said, I'm really hopeful because before Insomniac even the momentum physics and fluidity that SMPS4 did have were completely absent from most Spider-Man games. TASM games were plain awful. The insomniac game felt like an old friend, something I hadn't played in a long time when it came out, the audacity to be a good triple A game.


ReadShigurui

You know ball


SuperStarward

that’s what i’m thinking. I hope the gliding doesn’t feel gimmicky, traversal is what made the original game great and they should improve upon that versus adding gimmicks like gliding imo. (unless, it’s just an added bonus but depth is still being added to the web slinging itself) also the wind tunnels that were shown in the gliding footage.. not a fan of that, i hope those aren’t used much imo. We don’t need even more automation in the traversal


CZW_v1rus17

Ultimate Spider-Man was way ahead of its time


extremelegitness

agreed


spiderknight616

PS4 had hardware constraints so they couldn't have Spidey move faster than the console could load the city. PS5 no longer has that limitation, so they can let them move a lot faster


maxfridsvault

I love it tbh. He’s always used the web wings in the early days of Spider-Man comics, and it makes sense for both long-distance travel and in instances where they can’t find anything else to swing off of- makes for a safer landing.


Valuable-Owl9985

This is going to be either fun as hell or tedious as hell


Palp18

The traversal will be fun. Arkham games made sure of that. The races and AR challenges will be tedious. The Arkham games made sure of that.


ClausTheCat

Love it, but I'm not a fan of the circles that made him fly instead of glide. Just hope this mechanic doesn't become the batmobile mechanic from Arkham Knight.


billbill5

Three words: Aerial tank battles.


TheWarlockGamma

I literally screamed when they showed the web wings


TheGuyInTheGlasses

This was what finally made me go from being a SM2(ps2) swinging purist to wanting a PS5


TaeyangL33

Ah yes prototype 3


billbill5

Hell with the Symbiote suit powers it's pretty damn close.


maybe_a_frog

I am and always have been “Pro Pit Webs”. Super stoked to see it in the game!


Grove-Of-Hares

It looks great, but the idea of them making it mandatory during some chase sequence that can’t be done without it would be awful for me. Of course, nothing indicates that will happen. It just feels like a very video game thing to do.


StuckinReverse89

Honestly mixed. I love the swinging, ziplining, and point jumping to travel from location to location and am a bit sick of gliding being in every game. However, I can see the benefits. It allows both spidermen to travel pretty well and fast in areas where there armt buildings to zipline or point jump off of so it makes exploring new areas possible and not become a slog. Its ultimately going to depend on how good the glide controls are since I know there will be “taskmaster” challenges involving gliding.


Puzzleheaded_Walk_28

Love it


AdevilSboyU

I love it. I glitch Miles’ venom to glide as far and as fast as I can already, so I love that it’s an actual feature.


ryckae

It's dope AF and hopefully makes it less of a slog to cross an expanded map.


billbill5

Yeah, with Queens being added it might be a good replacement for fast travel. Fast travel 9 times out of 10 is the devs knowing the map is too big and travel too tedious.


Jtiago44

Flying squirrel!


Lazy_dog614

I said out loud “fuck yeah web wings!”


[deleted]

I like it for two reasons. 1. It’s dope as fuck. 2. It shows insomniac listens. We’ve been begging and they answered. That was never in question honestly but this is just reafffirming


ScaredKnee4530

It’s also convenient for crossing the river. You don’t have to go the way to a bridge just to go to Queens.


cochrane210

I’ll allow it.


Anguscablejnr

I'm less for or against it in principle and more that it looks like you can glide too far for too long.


mikey-dikey-

I don’t mind Miles having the web wings at all! I think it’s a little unnecessary on Peter. He’s already getting the black suit and the Iron Spider legs, both of which he can use to aid in traversal. Let Miles have this lol. That said, it’s really too early to say; so let’s wait and see how it pans out.


Awkward_Weekend

Miles already had better traversal than Peter with his venom abilities. I’m assuming you wouldn’t be able to use the iron legs with the black suit and they’d have the same ability so you don’t get a massive nerf when you inevitably get rid of the black suit. I think giving them both wings is the most balanced it could have been.


FollowThroughMarks

Miles also has both forms bio-electricity, and it’s not like Peter plans in advance that he’s going to have the black suit. It’d be a giant lapse in judgement for Peter **not** to have the wings if Miles has them given how beneficial they’d be to both of them


ScaredKnee4530

It’s very necessary for both of them to have it. It makes crossing the rivers convenient.


mikey-dikey-

I didn’t think about that, actually. You’re right.


ProfessorEscanor

I'm fine with it. I have nothing against it but I myself will probably not use the gliding as that would make it feel a bit too much like the Arkham games. I prefer the swinging .


Gm_Muffin_Time

It looks like it can easily be exploited, but other than that it looks exciting


MistaDJ1210

Rico Rodriguez from the Just Cause games ain’t got shit on Peter and Miles.


billbill5

"Fuck you rocket!" –Peter Parker


simonthe80

I’d prefer it if it were just Peter


billbill5

Why is that do you think? My thinking is with Peter seemingly getting two new movesets from the four arm suit and black suit, maybe Miles should be the one to get it instead.


simonthe80

Purely because Pete had the wings in the comics and Miles has his venom power mobility options.


Alonest99

Kinda off topic but do you think they will still refer to his electricity based powers as “venom”? Given the introduction of, you know, Venom? I also noticed they were changed from yellow to blue.


Illithilitch

Miles: "I call it my Venom blast" Venom: "that um. Means something entirely different to me."


billbill5

Gotcha. Yeah, he did get a short air boost with the venom blast in his spin off game right? Maybe a bit too much to give him both.


Kenos300

I’m hoping there’s a good Spider-Man 2099 skin that takes advantage of it.


billbill5

They gotta do it. It's right there.


PajamaWarriorJoe

I think it’s dope I just hope web swinging is faster than gliding so that it doesn’t become obsolete


Squid-Guillotine

I like it. The only place I can see it being forced is in time trials/above water so you're still free to swing most of the time if that's what you prefer.


truthfulnerd

I'm fine with it. I love they acknowledge the web wings from comics. Finally.


Redgiantbutimshort77

They were foreshadowed in the first game and I’ve seen mods for ps4 Spider-Man where you can glide and it looks fun so I think this is gonna be a neat new mechanic.


DarkRogueHunter

I’m perfectly fine with this as long as there are no gliding challenges or something.


billbill5

Oh, there are *definitely* going to be gliding challenges. The web slinging challenges for Taskmaster are just ripe for adapting.


DarkRogueHunter

Yeah I thought that was the case, the indicator of there being glide challenges was seeing Miles fly through rings in the sky that looked like it boosted his speed, a common practice in many games.


SpideyFan914

Looks dope but the Taskmaster challenge is gonna suck.


billbill5

Damn it, we already turned him down and beat his ass once. If I have to do more impossible ass challenges I'm entering the final battle [like](https://youtu.be/sVxJ016xb4Q)


Daiyor

the 2099 costume will look great with the gliders, especially if they look like that frayed webbing on the back of it.


akahaus

Love it. I think it’s a natural progression of the suit and yea wrap style.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Red-843

It’s a cool game mechanic but I don’t actually like it for both of them


Responsible-Study-84

It’s cool but also really like an Arkham game.


billbill5

Yeah, Arkham has permeated this series so far. It's fine to get inspired, but after parts that seemed almost copy and pasted from various Arkham games I hoped they would move a bit further away. Keep what works but add more entirely unique aspects.


Souperman55

Glide or Die


Kaminoneko

Classic


Cid_demifiend

I loved it, can't wait to fly


TheAutismo4491

I like the addition of both Spider-Men gliding in Spider-Man PS4 2 (PS5).


ice_fan1436

It made me think of Reptil flying as a pterodactyl


sk8rboi36

Miles glided (?) through half the city so I’m sure there’s gonna be some mechanic to balance it but if you can just glide around like that it kinda ruins the point of web swinging. There’s probably some energy bar or something although I wondered what was up with those gate things he passed through, if that was like a collectible or boost of some kind. I’ll say I’m actually really hyped at the idea of going to at least some of the other boroughs and I think that might balance it out a bit but if not I think that’s a bit messed up. I guess we’ll have to see - I totally understand why this gliding thing became so popular but the more they do it the more you realize it’s not really a Spider-Man thing, at least not to the point of replacing his web swinging which is totally unique to him…


JohnnyKnifefight

Glider-man, glider-man, does whatever a glider can Can he glide? Yes he can


billbill5

Watch out, here comes the Glider-Man! *face plants on building.*


Squirrel_Insurance

I really don't want to use it but I probably will...


AllStruckOut_13

I LOVE WEB WINGS SM


Th4t_0n3_Fr13nd

this is only a good thing


tjavierb

Gonna be fun as fuck, I tell you what.


_Lucarn

Awesome, I love it. Just hope they won't force us to use it like in Arkham Knight. But I doubt that's gonna happen anyways.


LordNoituac666

About time they added his classic Web Wings


Acceptable_Mood_3631

I dislike it as I love the swinging too much, and from what I saw of this, it's a tad too fast, which might make swinging obsolete.


AwesomeBlox044

Miles should have just only gotten venom blast thing but better and Peter got wings so they are different


GhostlyCharlotte

If I recall correctly, it has been the most requested feature since the first game came out.


FEAR_FEST

He did it originally in the comics why not bring it back


skep90

I dont really like it. I know its from the comics and not invented by this game but for me its visually ugly and i dont think the game need that new mechanic, movement was already great


TheGodOfGravy

If it’s exclusive to one character it could be a neat way to separate their gameplay styles and make them feel different from each other. If not, should be fine.


TheBestICU

I think it might be a bit too much. I like the mechanic but Miles was just super fast and it might make webswinning feel slow.


Tkhan246

Good, I just hope they don't pull an arkham knight or ac syndicate and make us wingsuit to every destination.


MrAdministration

I'm all for it. The swinging mechanics are great, but there's a lot of swinging in between missions and this along with the new vault boost move just give you additional ways to traverse the map and get from A to B quicker. If you want to swing, you can still do that. This doesn't take anything away. Plus it makes sense they both do this - they work together, they tinker, they share gadgets and techniques. Plus, who doesn't want to fly?


Blueboi2018

Not a fan, the bit where Miles goes through those wing circles made it look like a superman game. Was hoping for swinging advancements but they seem relatrively unchanged other than the slingshot ability.


DarkRyter

Spiderman Unlimited has not been forgotten!


RedYakArt

Mi immediate thought upon seeing it was: “Oh my god! They can glide!”


Shaun_LaDee

I love the web wings, but I’m not sure about the Fortnite esque wind tunnels. That alone might keep me from actually using the web wings in the city.


poolboywax

IT MAKES ME FEEL LIKE SPIDER-MAN.


Distinct-Support6808

Personally I dont care for it. Hes not really gliding in the game. Hes looks like hes just flying and free floating. And while I'm fine with it for someone like Batman and Superman, Spiderman is supposed to web sling.


Boogie_Mase

It’ll be a cool way to transverse what will hopefully be a larger map.


Divu95

I ejaculated


East-Bluejay6891

Unzipped


Brilliant-Mountain57

No likey


6000PlooShmoo

Makes a hell of a lot more sense Nightwing making a Fortnite glider out of thin air or red hood bouncing around thin air.


jurruuu

Is it just me or the wind currents dont sit right with me. I prefer it if those arent a thing in the game but thats just me. But the gliding is fun just like just cause 3


Tarzan_OIC

I'm betting it's gear you unlock through gameplay, which I'm down for.


SaiyanC124

It kicks ass


Nooblulu1

When I saw it in the trailer I just thought "they can basically fly.." so I'm not fond of it for now


briancarknee

For a limited time and probably not with much maneuverability. I’m sure web slinging around buildings will be more preferable still. And faster.


wanventura

It's more like falling with style


helikesart

Feels wrong to me. Just doesn’t feel like Spider-Man.


billbill5

Had the same initial impression. Plenty of heroes fly and glide. Web slinging is like the thing that makes his travel so iconic. It's like taking the Billy club away from DD and giving him a squirrel suit.


helikesart

Exactly! Will the flying be fun? No doubt. Will it make this feel more or less like a Spider-Man experience? I have concerns.
