When you say upgrade in visuals, you just mean the HUD stuff, right, or does the update mention other improvements as well?

Question: can I finish the main story then go back and wrap up all the side missions, etc. after?
With NG+, do all of your tokens carry over? Basically making it much easier to get the platinum?
GAME OVER IF A THIEF ESCAPES WITH A SINGLE POT
Granted, it was probably an expensive pot.
But still, I CAN'T FUCKING BELIEVE THAT SHIT

Fantastic news, I haven't played the DLC yet so this will be a welcome change once I start.
It's specific for the katana Demons, I think. It took two focus meters to perform. The whip enemies have a specific finisher animation too, just like the brutes.
My colleague saved me some dosh and lent me this one and couldn't stop giggling and screaming cheerfully at my wife "look at that tower, that tower right there - I'm going to be on it!"
Such a surreal thing. Goosebumps when.
This is effin great.

had Mr. Yin Yang hauled away after a subway brawl and got dumped via text by MJ.
Cool thanks. I was starting to lose interest but the shit clearly just hit the fan.
Questions about some Act 3 stuff:
So the inmates have busted out and the Sinister 6 has risen. Now I've got roving gangs of inmates wandering about that I can dispatch or ignore. These roving gangs don't count towards completion in any way, correct? I should still focus on doing random crimes, but if it isn't marked by a red triangle, it's effectively not counted towards completion total? Do they eventually clear themselves up by virtue of completing the story? The last mission I completed was defeating Vulture and Electro.
When you beat one of those groups it makes it so they don't come back which makes it easier to swing across the city without getting shot at. You're correct, they don't count for any completion.
When you beat the game they all disappear.
This happened to me too. For people like me, giving me the ability to collect so many things asap is a misstep cause I'll do that til I get sick of the game for not having enough story hooks at the start lol. Eventually I cleared out the side content and only had the story to do mostly and blasted through it. Its exactly why I don't like open world usually.
Thankfully the story ramped up when I got back into it though.
Any news on when the next DLC is dropping? Was waiting to buy the pass until more of it was out.
Oh nice, before Thanksgiving! Thanks for the quick response.
I can't remember that date ever being announced, we only know it because it showed up the in-game.
Yeah I was talking about earlier. I've only cried while playing two games: TLOU and now Spider-Man. Brilliant performance.
Yuri was fantastic. He just had the unfortunate timing to be nominated in the same year as Arthur "shoah" Morgan and "boy" Kratos. My vote would be for RDR 2, but all three are fantastic choices.
Next DLC is November 20th.
Guess I'm ready for it but I'm expecting it to be more of the same.
Which isn't a bad thing per say but I know what's coming.

Wow these DLC's are coming out quick! I haven't even played the first DLC yet.. will probably wait till all 3 are out and just bang them out quickly.
Well, I finally completed the main story. That is, without question, the best superhero game I have played by a country mile. I tried to get into the Arkham games and they never quite clicked with me; Spider-Man nailed it from minute one. I can't remember the last time I played a game in which the controls were complicated (allowing you to do a lot of different things) and yet intuitive (so you weren't accidentally doing the wrong one), not to mention justifiable (so you didn't just spam a single move over and over and forget certain buttons on the controller even existed); it's positively brilliant. In a lot of other years, this would be, without question, my GOTY, and yet it has the bad luck to come out in the same year as Red Dead Redemption 2 (possibly my favorite game of all time) and God of War (which I haven't played, but I've watched a fair bit of on YouTube, and it is pretty impressive). But what an absolute joy this game turned out to be. The story is top notch, the acting is wonderful, the combat is engaging and rewarding, and traversing the world is sheer brilliance. I'm not getting the DLC just yet, but I feel like I might bite after they're all released and I can play through an extra few chapters all at once. And I don't know about the platinum; I'll probably get it, but some of those challenge tokens are really fucking annoying, and RDR 2 is calling me back.
Just picked this up in the sale. Playing on easy mode and I have already died 4 times (and counting) during the Kingpin fight.
I am so terrible at action games, this style of combat is really putting me off. I just can't get the timings right and end up button mashing in frustration. Seems very hard to me, considering it's the very first boss fight, on easy mode.
I was mostly looking forward to the traversal and swinging round the city at my leisure, but it's thrown me straight into this long action set piece with endless fights.
Edit: Ugh, this fight just keeps going and going. I thought I'd beaten him but now I'm facing him and his goons.
What do I for crowd control? I'm trying to focus on Fisk but he keeps auto targeting his goons then Fisk smacks me while I'm locked in on some nobody. Very frustrating!

Beginning is a bit rough. The combat will eventually click and gets easier with unlocks. Don't fret to much I'm pretty sure a lot of people felt the sane way.
Thanks. I hope it does get easier as I'm really struggling with it at the moment. I unlocked a perk to hit enemies while I'm swinging an object, hoping that could clear swarms, but enemies don't stop swarming me long enough for me to even perform it, I just get hit out of it.
Doing web bombs gives some good crowd control, and doing take downs to help keep it filled is what I ended up doing a lot. The basic web shooter I never really used a lot. The perfect evade upgrade is good as well helps give you an option to instantly zip to ranged guys for a free take down.
Edit: yeah the object throw is pretty weak as you are always still vulnerable.
Guys needa bit of advice please: struggling to complete one of the bonus objectives from the
? I'm currently level 11.
Spoilered just in case.
Also, do random crimes stop after you stop however many you're meant to?
Btw, Spider-Man is easily my GOTY, love it so much.
Fisk constrction bases; complete 10 finishers. Is this something I'll need to unlock the chain finishers skill in order to complete

The single most important thing in every fight in the game is avoiding getting hit. Watch for your Spidey sense to go off and hit O when it does. You can have battle sequences where you're just hitting O constantly, and that's by design. The second most important thing is that your gadgets (which you open with L1) are really useful. Early on, all you really have is regular webbing, but hitting R1 a few times in a row will disable an enemy and leave you free to focus on other people. Also, keep in mind you can still use all your moves at any point; if you feel overwhelmed in the Kingpin fight, jump with X and hit R2 to start swinging and get away from everyone.
You don't need to, but it definitely helps.
If you do, it becomes almost trivial to do this after you've leveled up a bit. You end up getting additional focus bars and the skill that allows you to chain finishers, which, used in conjunction with the Battle Focus suit power (the very first one you get) gives you a seemingly endless supply of finishers right in a row.
So do we have a release time for this in NA this time?
