No one said it was hard to figure out. Muscle memory kicks in yes even in video games. I did the same thing a few times. Your mind knows the buttons but when the action starts your body remembers the nights in Arkham and it all comes back to you. Only to realize o shit, this is not Arkham.

[@Muzzy100]

A tip I've been telling my friends is unlock the web swing kick as soon as possible, webbing up a brute then swing kicking him towards a wall will make him stick to it if he connects with a wall, car or street lamp essentially giving you the option to get them out of the way when you start a fight making it easier to pull of stylish combat for easier XP

[@mariovarela6292]

That sounds awesome I didn't know you could do that

[@diego1715]

Or of a building

[@henryhaynes9635]

Good idea

[@Sal-fg3rs]

@Ezekiel Branford You can hold triangle to throw the brute with one of the skills and they stick to walls as well.

[@Haz3Nation]

Or just throw him at the wall or focys finish hom

[@quiettimegaming3642]

Honestly, I think the first thing everyone should do is unlock all of the towers and collect all of the backpacks *as soon* as the get gives you the reigns (after Peter gets off of work). By doing this you'll gather a ton of XP, get some upgrades, and get better aquatinted with traversing the city.

This dude doesn't know how to use counter either. Why is he "getting smashed from behind". He does know you can just flip backwards also?

[@josephtobin4831]

Releasing at the bottom point of the swing speeds you up the most, releasing as spidey is going upwards will give you less speed but will give you altitude.

[@HOSTvallo]

Only complaint I have (which is a minor annoyance) is the crawling.. can't crawl on the ground, onto objects, from the floor to the wall, around the threshold of a doorway up the wall and to the ceiling etc... crawling on some of the more intricate parts of buildings is quite frustrating if even possible at all. Basically killing any sense of stealth, as well as reducing the immersion of being Spidey.. All we have is zipping to walls/ceilings and that's that. Large pipe in the way? Too bad, can't crawl over it. This is fairly trivial compared to everything Insomniac got right, but still something I notice each time I play it. Seems like an oversight, a small one in the grand scheme of things, but significant enough IMO, it's just as vital as web-swinging.. 9/10 lol Also, Scarlet Spider, lemme wear that hood yo!!! ;P

[@saiyanroyalty229]

You nailed it... The game is virtually perfect but getting caught crawling feels awful each time. You can't even corner buildings in some cases.

[@jpobi9880]

Also the stealth seems very specific of your placing. If you're not over a ledge (but still above your enemy) or close enough behind your enemy you'll simpli kick the air instead of making a stealth kill. Which is very different from other games where there was a single exclusive stealth button to let the game know when you wanted to do it, (ex: Shadow of Mordor/War and Idk about arkham). A small detail, but it seems that Insomniac ignored a bit of the stealth part of the gameplay to ficus on the combat (which is, in my opinion, excellent).

[@HOSTvallo]

Yeah, the crawling feels odd at times.. and the fact that you can't crawl or crouch to sneak around is kinda tragic lol Excellent game though, loooking forward to NG+!

[@jpobi9880]

Erik Oliver Exactly!

[@imcnblu]

That Spider Bro tip is VERY useful in the "challenge" side missions. I won't spoil the character who introduces the challenges. But, when you reach that point in the campaign, stealth is one of several types of challenges. Spider Bro makes getting the max reward for stealth challenges *extremely* easy. Use it before they patch it.

[@imruoll]

imcnblu actually it isn’t a spoiler if you would say that Task Master is the one giving the challenges because insomniac already said that before release

Navieck, tap the up arrow. This will equip the camera. Then press R1, this will take the picture.

[@ajerqureshi6411]

Something I've always done when playing the game is that when I'm in combat, I usually very rarely launch enemies into the air. Aside from the enemies where an air launch is the only reald defense breaker (and despite the game telling me that's safer for spidey in the air), I always play my combat scenarios by constantly flipping around with the circle button and punching the bad guys on ground level, dodging when necessary. It's surprisingly pretty effective.

[@hip3rp0tam]

Also, the most OP move I found is to use web bombs on big numbers of enemies and than hit them with concussive blast, you can get a whole crowd webbed to walls and everything else around in like 2 seconds!

[@landendrake1696]

I felt his description of brutes in my soul. They're so annoying bro😂

[@dianas7748]

A variation on the "aerial tricks earn XP" point: they also generate Focus. Once you're in the higher levels, 2XP per trick won't help you level up in any significant way. BUT you'll also start getting more Focus bars and powering those up with aerial tricks so you have a ready Finisher is awesome (paired with the middle Skill tree ability that gives you two Finishers per Focus bar). Really comes in handy in the end stages of the game with different crimes and challenges to have that Focus filled and ready to be unleashed.

[@LostChildOfTime]

My favorite tip/trick the game doesn't tell you is that jumping is a soft dodge. There are some instances where you are on the ground mid-animation and you can't press O to dodge, but you can press X to jump and dodge. The game seems to slow down when performed properly. I'm certain it works better vs melee attacks than ranged attacks.

Max the far right tree and get backpacks and landmarks first it helps immensely, always do crimes when they pop. Max webshooters asap as webbing enemies with those is helpful... game is great getting it platinum was a lot of fun

[@rickybridges3465]

Thanks for the advice I just started the game yesterday, even the small fights can be challenging at time's my favorite thing so far in combat is perching up high and webbing the enemy up and leave them hanging like spider food🕸🕷!!!!

[@BTBSOUNDS]

3 hours into the game and you learn all of this if you just play the game and pay attention and read the skill descriptions. Also the web zip isn't a good dodge because a lot of the times you just ping out of the combat or off a building. BTW that's not how to swing fast, that's for getting height. To get some REAL speed where your controller vibrates each time you're swinging, swing as low as possible, let go not at the top of the swing but at the bottom of the swing to get forward momentum. Make use of the perch jump on street lamps and get the upgraded perch jump, and you're moving REALLY fast. Like faster than most of the cars/trains you have to chase down/follow. And finally. It's not Arkham. This game has more in similarity with DmC (the good one aka the reboot) than arkham and it's annoying how "games journalists" don't see that.

[@DustinMillerPolyInnovator]

pro tip. If you earn XP via the swing tricks, you can increase your focus in dire situations (like final boss) so that you can heal. Honestly there were points in some bases too where I ran out of health, but achieved a massive combo, and didn't want to lose that progress.

[@codylakin288]

Some quick tips in addition to these: Another good way of changing direction quickly, specifically turning a sharp corner, is to wall-run along a building, and hold Circle right before the corner; Spidey will swing around the corner very efficiently. Also, you can’t always web-zip instead of dodging. Often, the bullets will just hit you where you web-zipped if you do it too early or too late. Dodging and then web-zipping though is great. And for speed while swinging, even quicker is to press X in the middle of your swing instead of at the top. Keep doing that and you’ll be going way faster. It’s a better-and more visually pleasing-way of gaining speed instead of web-zipping. You only want to press X at the apex of the swing when you want to gain altitude.

[@maxzapsgamingzepzeap2337]

There's also the fact that holding square to launch an enemy upwards and then attacking a different enemy will make the previous enemy unable to attack you for a short amount of time as they get up, which can definetly help if you're somewhat crowded. You can also just use square multiple times for the upwards attacks to avoid attacks from the more basic enemies that don't have jetpacks or rockets or guns which most definetly helps when in a crowd

[@proxythefool]

The worst Arkham habit that stuck with me is the counter on animations. In Arkham NG+ you don't have the warning or counter prompt, you just have to counter as soon as you see their animation to punch starts, but in spiderman, they either wind up and deliberately be a bit slow so if you dodge on animation, they'll just follow you and punish you, gotta wait for that spidey sense no matter what lmao.

One trick I found that's really useful to clear a big group of bad guys, especially indoors, is to use a suspension matrix, followed by a web bomb (or vice versa. Either works) and one it wears off, use the concussive blast to blast them towards a wall. Boom. Instant take downs Also, another trick, use an uppercut on an enemy, web them a few times, then hold triangle to slam them onto the ground, sticking them instantly

[@Avengersdeadpoolthor]

Better than Arkham any day, and this comes from an Arkham fanboy from back in the day

[@Avengersdeadpoolthor]

A imo its the opposite, collectibles and riddles are utter thrash, they dont have substance or a reason to be there, not even a reason for you to pick it up unless you want a platinum trophy. Side quests were somewhat better gameplay wise, but in Spider-Man its more entretaining to complete them, there's always a little twist or some reason to be there, instead of just fighting guys for the sake of them being *insert villain here* goons. In Spider-Man the side activities introduce more characters or make you feel necessary for the people of NY

[@nightphantom3046]

I learnt all these tricks and tips the hard way and when I saw this video to see if I could get some tips I realised that I new all of them But what they failed to mention is that if you are doing a Fisk hideout on a high building you can use ‘rock out’ on the enemies when they are near the edge and they will just end up flying of the building. Or you could use the web swing attack on the enemies directing them towards the edge of the building and they will fly of and you won’t have to deal with them.

The most fun you will ever have playing as the Web Slinger. An absolute dream to play This game lives up to the hype and even on normal is a bit challenging. This single player experience I can see myself coming back to for years to come.

[@Pluvillion]

Holding L1 can help you with perfect dodges. Also, electric webs are perfect for brutes. Concussive blasts are useless. Try Spider drone too. Negative Shockwave is perfect if you're going to engage a fight in a group that is huddle together. Chances that most of them will go unconscious, and some would go out in one hit. But you'll know *all* of these (the ones in the video) if you've played the game long enough.

[@tjuannepitchford3943]

You forgot the L2+R2/Perch then X when you land the jump off. This is also a great way to gain speed, increase momentum, cover ground and after you get the jump boost, oohhhh baby, it really goes fast!

[@tjuannepitchford3943]

dragon stare24 People that played the game knew about everything he covered in the video. That tidbit was for the people that haven’t played the game yet just as the video was.

[@beastofdarknesss5822]

Not true for example spidey bro stealth for 1

[@sepakurei]

Thanks for the tips & tricks!

[@oscarov8235]

All of these “tips” are in the tutorial.

[@InnerSunshine]

No, nothing beats hearing it then doing it for real. Reading it only is weak for most players.

[@TURKEYonWH3AT]

Insomniac is going to sell DLC purely off the strength of Venom and Carnage and the Black Suit. MARK MY WORDS!

[@SuperStephen2012]

Nah it'll be in a sequel.

[@jostinmontalvo8851]

@@SuperStephen2012 It would be stupid if they didn't do a venom DLC or some sort of easter egg specially since the movie is coming out october.

[@Soulzs]

Also Green Goblin

[@angela_jx]

Jostin Montalvo I don’t wanna spoil anything but there’s a post credit scene that pretty much confirms that anything symbiote related will be in the sequel

[@Bleax]

Play the game and answer your own questions... it’s gonna be a sequel not dlc

[@byrondadon2123]

I love web shooting enemies into walls it always looks so cool and it helps me beat certain levels since Imm playing at a high difficulty

[@thundergun100]

Nice vid and fun presentation, subscribed

[@Xgil2Play]

The suit specific power; not only does the game tell you that, but the Devs have said it in so many occasions, to the point it's not an excuse you not knowing about it.

[@TheFrogLord-ed5tz]

Do u even read prompt? Almost all of these stuff u mention is said in the game.

[@wuebboltc]

I started playing the midnight it went live and got a 1/2 hour into it. Best opening 30 minutes I've ever spent in a game.

[@PrototypeXII]

I was on board with this video until the very first tip about slowing time by pressing L1 mid air, thing that game not only tells you but forces you to use in certain story missions

[@BenderRodriguez10]

More like 14 things the game explicitly tells you.

[@Dizzytek]

Almost the entire list is BS. The game tells you. Just need to read the tutorial prompts and not spam the X button...

[@gkillmaster]

superb explanations! Thanks!

[@BaltaBueno]

The only one that I actually didn't know was the Spider Bros doing everything for you during stealth missions lol

[@chukakaelo2275]

Spectacular isn't hard enough. Don't @ me.

[@aaronraja3967]

Chuka Kaelo ultimate difficulty coming in ng+

[@3nertia]

From what I've seen it seems they've softened the AI for your "average" players. Seems silly the increased difficulties wouldn't also increase the AI?

[@matejstojcic3542]

@Chuka Kaelo there is ultimate but yea it is stupidd

[@CallMeCancel.]

I love how the title says “tips the game doesn’t tell you” when they literally tells u everything smh

[@nickanthropocene6502]

Hold square to launch an enemy into the air and immediately tap R1 with Trip Mine equipped. It'll web them to the ground instantly and is a lifesaver in tight spots. You're welcome.

[@mackthisarrowhearth295]

One trick to travel faster, spiderman doesn't want to stick to the ground where are roads immediately after stop of starting swinging, so you can quickly tap in and out swing mode to travel fast in a straight line if your timing is right.

[@tbeau96]

The thing I really like about other posts of the Spiderman game, is that the only people that get upset about it are Xbox fanboys. I don't see any right now which is good, but they're bound to flood in eventually. The thing I found funny was that all of their insults were just "lol spiderman is for kids come play a real game like mw2, this game looks like shit". Like that's it. Nothing original at all, insulting people that haven't even gotten to play their game for more than 10 hours.

[@madfam1105]

tbeau96 I'm a Xbox player and I wish this was on xbox

[@isidorodaviddoro1920]

Well they are sad because they can't play the game

[@godsgreatestmistake8013]

Every "fanboy" I've seen are saying that they wish they can get the game. I don't know where you were getting these comments.

[@turbogeek.421]

An empty comment because I'm here early and can't think of anything clever to say.

Delete this please.

@@ZOD4 Nah.

[@jayeff4102]

A very very helpful one that you didn’t mention... You can web up the brutes the web throw them and if they stick to a wall then you’re instantly done with them.. You need the talent to throw the brutes but a HUGE time saver..

[@GVZKeys]

Genuinely good tips, thanks!

[@thecatherinegriffin2610]

I hate that spidey just uses the same attack combo everytime. Not like in arkham where it's a variety of attack animations.

[@squeegilydiggily]

Not really, they're sort of both the same, but satisfactory nonetheless

[@hugon6717]

I mean if you just mash square and occasionally circle then yea, but if you combine everything the game gives you? It definitely feels more rewarding.

[@teddyriggs1305]

Really? He's been flipping kicks and punches and doing mucha libre lockdowns so much I can barely tell difference on attack animations

[@wodahs4200]

Kyle Griffin that’s probably cause you just smash square. Their are nice combinations that we can come up with if you combine all his moves together.

[@SamVimes75]

If that’s how you’re playing, no wonder you aren’t having fun with it. Mix in trip mines, web swings, other gadgets, and so on. I’ve had more fun mixing up my attacks in this than in any other post-Arkham game.

[@Tuxedosnake00]

the most bad thing about this game is all side missions just be collecting things....i mean was insomniac sleeping the last 10 years and not noting that no one these days likes this? people want side missions with good storys

[@RealLilVodka]

When on a rooftop near an edge, try doing the swinging kick by jumping and holding square. It kicks them right off the side of the building for a swift victory.

[@MeeB3]

Hey weird yellow blocky armor is amazing and I typically hate the color yellow but it actually looks nice in my opinion. But great video.

[@TheListofMrRaguso]

There are 2 dodge buttons, o dodges most attacks but you can also pair it with x for a quick second dodge or as a means to get out of a tight spot or set yourself up for aerial combat by jumping off enemies

[@garyclark6656]

omg so helpful! thanks

[@droppedmysamwhich]

It's only been 1 day since release and I already feel like a pro

[@nicktubara]

6:51 "i was just getting smashed from behind by brutes............calm down.' LOL

I'm so glad I understood all of these tricks before I even watched this video. Very good. I need my younger brothers to see this.
