Now that Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is lastly out within the wild, gamers are discovering all of its cool moments and comedian e-book Easter eggs. However a bunch have encountered one thing way more sudden: a glitch that turns Spider-Man into a bit of white lump of tofu.
It’s not technically tofu per se, however that’s definitely what some gamers assume it seems like. The unusual bug sees a small dice you may affiliate with early improvement prototyping utterly change the titular superhero’s physique. Spider-Block as some are calling it (me, I’m calling him that) can nonetheless do all of the superb issues the neighborhood web-crawler usually does, like web-slinging by way of New York and comboing dangerous guys skyward. The bizarre glitch transforms the expertise from cool comedian e-book stuff to extra-surreal fever dream.
Social media is already filled with gamers encountering the dice glitch:
Regardless of the bug’s prevalence, nobody actually appears to be positive precisely what causes it. The tofu slabs simply seem any time both Peter Parker or Miles Morales’ go well with mannequin fails to load. Then it’s dice time. You’ll be able to repair it by going again to the go well with menu and swapping to a distinct costume. It’s sensible to do this rapidly, too, since there are studies of some cubed gamers falling by way of the map after their sudden transfigurations. Maybe therein lies a portal to the blockverse, however your greatest guess is simply to reload from the final checkpoint if that occurs.
Happily, my 40-hour expertise with Spider-Man 2 was largely bug free, although some gamers have reported sport crashes or often getting caught on elements of the atmosphere. A couple of gamers have even reported being unable to play the disc model of the sport in any respect, with installations getting caught at 36 p.c. Insomniac Video games hasn’t but supplied an official workaround, although the problem doesn’t appear to be too widespread. Hopefully it will get solved quickly so these gamers may expertise the glory of Spider-Block.
