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 far more surprising: a glitch that turns Spider-Man into just a little white lump of tofu.
It’s not technically tofu per se, however that’s actually what some gamers assume it seems to be like. The unusual bug sees a small dice you may affiliate with early growth prototyping fully exchange the titular superhero’s physique. Spider-Block as some are calling it (me, I’m calling him that) can nonetheless do all of the wonderful issues the neighborhood web-crawler usually does, like web-slinging by way of New York and comboing unhealthy 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’ swimsuit mannequin fails to load. Then it’s dice time. You possibly can repair it by going again to the swimsuit menu and swapping to a special costume. It’s good to try this shortly, too, since there are reviews of some cubed gamers falling by way of the map after their surprising transfigurations. Maybe therein lies a portal to the blockverse, however your finest wager 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 recreation crashes or sometimes 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 difficulty doesn’t appear to be too widespread. Hopefully it will get solved quickly so these gamers can even expertise the glory of Spider-Block.
