Spider-Man locked at 30fps on both PS4 systems

3.5
Spider-Man is on the cover of this month’s issue of Game Informer, and the magazine learned some interesting facts about the title during its visit to Insomniac Games.

During a Rapid-Fire interview with creative director Brian Intihar, we learn the game is locked at 30fps on both PS4 and PS4 Pro. The game is also “several times larger” than Insomniac’s Sunset Overdrive, and will feature fast travel thanks to New York’s handy subway system (thanks, Nibel).

Post-release content plans include The City That Never Sleeps, announced alongside the release date. As far as microtransactions are concerned, when asked if any are included, Intihar said “hell no.”

Plenty of collectibles outfits will be unlockable, and each feature distinct abilities. Game Informer it saw at least a dozen in the game menu, two of which were Noir and a Wrestling Suit. There’s also Spider-Punk, which as previously reported, is a pre-order bonus. Intihar said the menu didn’t show all of the outfits included in the game.

Intihar said the game doesn’t include “major” original characters as the team wanted to focus instead on Marvel characters; however, Parker’s love interest Mary Jane will be playable.

The game includes a Photomode allowing players to take interesting snapshots of Spidey’s adventures. Spider-Man is able to take selfies with NPCs in the game and can even interact with them by giving high-fives, etc.

Oh, and Spider-Man also won’t instantly die when falling into the water. That’s good news. There are other fun answers to some silly questions if you watch the entire thing.

Well this is just another reason ive gone over to PC now lol, does anyone know if this game will be on Steam?

Another potentially great exclusive being held back by console capabilities, unfortunate.

I really wish this was an Xbox game, cause I know damn well the X wouldn't have this problem, although sometimes it's on the developers and not the hardware itself.

Wow really a huge letdown. Looking forward to this heavily and I can't imagine how great it would be at 60fps. Hopefully something changes.

MazePosted:

Seems like this is already a breaking point for the game. 2018 still can't get 60fps, why waste the time?

SR20DETPosted:

It's the Pro capable of getting 60fps(assuming it can)? What would be the point in locking it at 30?...Seems like a waste of hardware.

Potion Upsetting especially for Pro users. It should offer a performance mode for 60fps.


Tottally agree.. Just makes the PS4 Pro look like a pointless console lol


well since the Xbox one x came out it really has showed the flaws in the ps4 pro as most games arnt getting a substantial upgrade like the base xbox one to the xbox one x

I was expecting 60 frames seems they chose graphics over framerate
