In the wake of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s successful release, a player has captured an amusing moment, showcasing thugs in the game attempting to battle Spider-Man only to make a sudden break for it, driving away in another car without engaging in combat. While the game has received tremendous acclaim and set sales records, it’s not free from peculiar glitches and AI quirks. One such glitch involved Miles turning into a white cube while swinging through New York City, a bizarre visual issue linked to suit switching.
AmazonMason shared a video depicting an unusual interaction: after hitting Spider-Man with their car, the arriving thugs unexpectedly abandoned the battle and rushed to a nearby car, swiftly driving away. Speculations about the fleeing AI behavior ranged from observing the Symbiote Surge bar to avoiding a fight that might not work out in their favor. Other players recounted similar peculiar events, including criminals merging into traffic during a chase, leading to an abrupt end of the crime alert.
Apart from these glitches, Insomniac Games faced criticism regarding an error in depicting the wrong flag in the Morales household. The displayed flag was Cuban rather than Puerto Rican, the correct heritage of Rio and Miles. Following the controversy, the game’s recent update rectified this issue, swapping the incorrect Cuban flag with the rightful Puerto Rican flag.
