At best, Doc Ock has managed to block bullets on multiple occasions with his robo-arms, even from different directions simultaneously. At worst, Doc Ock's arms are at least fast enough to catch Spider-man sort of consistently.

Colonel Whitey posted:I wonder if there’s any classic Spidey heroism in this game, or if it’s just punching the bad men until they fall over. I want to save cats from trees and catch cars falling off bridges and stuff I'm actually playing now to double-check something, and you might like the research station side missions. You're doing things like fixing steam pipes in an old building before they can blow.

Lobok posted:Fighting Dr. Octopus is fighting a whirlwind of super-strong tentacles that never tire and getting caught by one means getting crushed and suffocated by all of them. There's a Spidey comic where Doc Ock pisses off Spider-Man by going too far and gets his rear end whipped by Spider-Man so bad that he nearly shits himself. I mean he just gets royally rocked, Spider-Man gets angry enough to basically bully and terrorize him after he's beaten and puts the fear of God into him. After Ock gets out of prison he swears revenge and basically designs his own Danger Room but it only has one thing: a robot Spider-Man that he designs based on actual SpiderData and fights all fuckin' day until he can kick it's rear end forward and backwards. The big payoff for the issue is when he thinks he's fighting the robot and tangles it up and is about to rip it apart and the robot says "Hey good job Doc, you really got me here, maybe don't rip me apart, ha ha" and Doc Ock is like "you spoke. My Spider-Man robot c-c-can't speak....." and goes into a catatonic state and Spider-Man manages to extract himself. I always liked that issue. Well, this has been Forgettable 80s Spider-Man Comics with MMJS

The original version, yeah. You nailed it. He was just A Very Smarty Guy who literally Got Transformed to a criminal by Radiation. Later they did all kinds of stuff with him. It's comics.

Dapper_Swindler posted:i should know better, but much like batman, arnt most of spideys villians darker mirror versions of aspects of spiderman/pete. i mean their are the obvious ones like venom and doc ock, but i am pretty sure electro fits in there to an extent. like he is just some dickhead lineman who gets powers by accident and decided "gently caress it, ill rob banks". I think it's important to remember when you're trying for a more critical reading that Stan Lee came up with most of the old rogues' gallery during a period of time when he was writing something insane like 12 monthly comics at once, so it's really just whatever cool idea they could come up with in fifteen minutes. A few of those classic villains got roughly kitbashed by later writers into reflecting some element of Spidey himself, particularly the ongoing theme of science going awry, but just as many don't have that. For example, Scorpion, Electro, and especially Kraven are just punch-clock bad guys who worked out in the long run due to cool outfits or a resonant idea.

Dapper_Swindler posted:like been reading the comics and in the originals he was just fat Goonlord with robo arms. like, SWAT Sniper could splatter his brains in second. hell he isnt even wearing body armor. A surprisingly high number of heroes/villains can be easily killed by a sniper, bombs or some thugs with assault weapons.

And also they instinctively hate Peter because he became the spider since who knew better about hunting than someone who had been hunted his entire life while all they could do was mimic their animal because they were bullies their entire lives

sexpig by night posted:So in spoilers how many of the 'proper' Sinister Six is in here aside from the guys we've seen in the trailer? Scorpion, Rhino, Vulture, and Electro are foreshadowed rather heavily in the first couple of hours. The last two are Mr. Negative-- --and this is the spoiler I meant when I said you'd know it from the start of the game if you know anything at all about the comics-- --and Octavius becomes Dr. Octopus over the course of the game.

He punches one of them in the face and it completely demolishes this guy's face, like completely tears his jaw off with the power of his blow. Ock is legit shocked because he realizes Peter has been holding back his entire life and he was actually so much stronger than anyone knew.

I remember that, that was actually Scorpion whose jaw he punched off by complete accident. It was one of the good moments of Ock's run as Spidey. May, Jonah, and someone else was there too and saw him do it.

Oh i know. its just fun. I am more of batman fan but i am a also a fan of good old Web head. reading the old comics is fun too. just how corny they are ad how stupid as gently caress peter can be( which works because he is a kid but still).

the shocker boss fight looks more entertaining than like 90% of the Batman game bosses. Arkham Asylum had the most dipshit "bosses" because half of them (mutant guy, Joker, Bane) were just the same big brute. Arkham Origins had some legit interesting bosses but that was it.

I want to buy this game and play it Friday morning but I'd really like to know if I can invert my camera on both axis. I know it's a weird request but I would really appreciate a screenshot of the camera options menu or at least a confirmation on more than just Y axis inversion. It's stupidly important to me and maybe .06% of the population.

DLC Inc posted:the shocker boss fight looks more entertaining than like 90% of the Batman game bosses. Makes sense with Shocker. Despite the jokes made about him, Shocker is one of the Spider Man's more troublesome enemies. He defeated Spider Man the first time they fought and tends to put up more of a fight then most of his villains. The number of times he has actually been captured by him in the comic can be counted on two hands. Like Shocker is hard to hurt because he has a vibration armor around his padded suit. And the concussive blasts he can send out are fast, wide and according to Spidey hurt like hell. Shocker once defeated an incarnation of the sinister six on his own.

I also love Shocker 'cuz he's just a dude what does crime like, he's not out to take over the world, he's not EXACTING HIS REVENGE ON THAT ACCURSED SPIDER-MAN he just wants to rob banks + make money + get rich quick. The guy also built wrist-mounted vibrorays or whatever the poo poo in prison, which is not that far from how Iron Man started. Just while Tony had an epiphany and turned his life around and became a hero, Shocker didn't move forward at all and just used what he'd figured out to rob banks harder

You know I'm not surprised that the game from the people who made Ratchet and clank has good swinging mechanics, though obviously this is much more important than those small sections in the R&C games.
