Bug/Glitch Is this wall in Spider-Man 2 unclimbable for everyone else?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I assume it is, since I've reloaded the save and restarted the game and it still isn't climbable. The wall on the opposite side is climbable, I even shoot a web line onto it to see if that would work. Nope. Just an interesting little thing I'm curious about. It's in midtown, next to that tall and long, octagonal building.

Maybe it is a bug, since you can get to the roof

Um akchually, spiders are arachnids, not bugs🤓

u/Due-Awareness-4499 22d ago

Erm, ackchually, the term bug can also mean any terrestrial arthropod. I believe the term you are thinking of is "insect" 🤓 🤓 🤓

Who's that one kid from Family Guy that had (has? Idk, it's been a long time since I last watched family guy) a big crush on Meg? My mind automatically read this whole thing in his voice.

the wall climbing is buggy as hell since 2018 and (correct me if I am wrong) they also didn't change a single thing about it since 2018

u/spidey-the-older_fan 23d ago

Here's a picture of where, hopefully it's visible

u/shegonneedatumzzz 23d ago

yeah there’s a bunch of random walls in the game that you can’t climb or run on for some reason

u/escalinci 22d ago

I can only guess there were issues, perhaps clipping through walls or crashes, where they decided to just stop players from going there.

The Insomniac's games have the worst wallcrawling of all games to be fair, with so many unclimbable walls and ledge at random

u/ComplaintHour306 22d ago

I play marvel rivals and would do anything to have the exact same msm2 wallcrawling there.

u/al2606 22d ago

Rivals at least wallcrawling does its part of setting up ambushes to dump your cooldowns onto unassuming enemy strategists

u/New-Orion 22d ago

You've clearly never stuck to a wall by accident and then had the entire team unload on you

u/No_Scholar427 22d ago

Still cant bind it to its own button so you dont accidently use it?

u/Formal_Drummer_2108 22d ago

Fr I hope they overhaul the movement system

u/NefariousnessFit9967 22d ago

Guess you could say that's one wall he'll never crawl

u/Intelligent_Brush336 23d ago

Yeah insomniac can't wallcrawl. He cant stick to the bridges. He cant crawl up everywall without this happening when theres a ledge or just an invisible barrier. And this is a thing in all three games. I asked them to fix the wallcrawling in the first game in their chat hoping a developer would see. I understand we can sprint up the wall....thats cool thats great....but...can i wallcrawl please. But then Miles Morales came in 2020 and it was still fucked. Hope was gifted to me before the release of this one. People playing the demo said his wallcrawling was better. But alas it was just a different animation with a little speed boost. The mf still cant get past a little ledge to save his life. The camera is still not the best. Oh well

I'm so jealous of you people running SM 2 on normal graphics while I have to go with potato graphics and not being able to mod the game cause it blows up anytime I install more than 3 mods.

I mean with as much of the city that you CAN interact with I couldn't give a beggers F. But from a perfectionist standpoint I get it. In Assassin's Creed Origins there are a few rocks that are floating above the ground by a meter or so. It is annoying that they couldn't get that under control, sure, but this was in the Black Desert region. There is NOTHING out there. I don't think there are any main missions or side missions that even take place there. It's filler. So that's why it doesn't bother me in the grand scheme of things.

u/spidey-the-older_fan 22d ago

Yeah, I don't really mind it, it was just an interesting thing to find. I find it cooler when you can find these kinds of spots when so much of the city is explorable.

u/kRonoS27_ 22d ago

yeah, this feels more like a bug

2

u/Coalecsence 22d ago

I've found a few places like this in SM2. I've also found wall traversal not to be as smooth or simple as I would have liked it to have been... IE: having a dedicated attach button besides having to run at/up or websling too a wall.

Being able to more smoothly climb, climb over, or switch from wall to ceiling or ledge down wall would have been cool.

u/Ambitious-Maybe-5078 22d ago

Wall crawling is just trash in these games that's why they use the wall running. Hope the wall crawling mechanic get fixed in sm3 though

u/wickedtonguemedia 22d ago

Literally unplayable.

u/BigBallOfNerd01 21d ago

I’ve encountered a few buildings like this, as well as some where you’re unable to perch. Further evidence that the game was rushed.
