Welcome to the Web of Woes
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has landed on PC, and while the excitement levels are through the roof, so are the issues—like a glitched web-slinger caught in a loop! Hard crashes, performance hiccups, and an eyebrow-raising Steam rating have left some players spinning in circles. If you were hoping for a seamless adventure through New York City, buckle up, because you might be in for a wild ride.
Hotfixes and Quesadillas: What’s Cooking?
A first hotfix has already graced the game, but don’t pop the confetti just yet. Insomniac’s latest offering seems to have stumbled out of the gate, and even the experts are raising red flags. Lumi Kløvstad sums it up perfectly: “Hold off on buying until they get a couple of stabilization patches out because holy hell.” That’s a statement that might feel familiar to anyone who’s experienced a rocky launch!
Nixxes, What Happened?
Port studio Nixxes previously had a good track record, but it seems they’ve fumbled the ball on this one. Players are reporting everything from lighting issues in cutscenes to audio that’s more ‘desync’ than sync. One frustrated player exclaimed that their game “crashes every 10 minutes”—a scenario no one wants while trying to enjoy a heroic saga. So, with a powerful setup like an NVIDIA RTX 4090 and still running into walls, it’s clear that some systems are feeling a bit overwhelmed.
In conclusion, while Spider-Man 2 is swinging into the PC world, it’s dragging quite the entourage of issues behind it. Let’s hope for more patches ahead and a smoother ride for players ready to step into the spider-verse!
