How do you know this?.. never been stated anywhere.. all they said was game was being built from the ground up for PS5, never was said using PS4 assets.
New Spider-Man: Miles Morales details (ray-tracing, overhauled city, near-instant loading, 3D audio)
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
IIRC the Silver Sable DLC sets up MJ having to leave the U.S. for a while. maybe he left NYC to visit her?
Miles is a standalone game like The Lost Legacy. Even after it has been clarified to not be an expansion people are calling it an expansion: "In truth, Spider-Man: Miles Morales is not an expansion or enhancement but a new video game".
GT7 will be using the highest quality detailed vehicles that were scaled down in GT Sport and Horizon Forbidden West was reported to be a PS4 game until its development was moved to next-gen. Nobody else is reaching to conclude that these games are also going to be released on PS4 or that Sony is hiding that from people.
The fact that it is obvious means it doesn't demand an explanation. By your logic, Insomniac Games would evangelise PS5 exclusive features in their PS5 exclusive Ratchet & Clank game and evangelise PS5 exclusive features in their PS5 exclusive Spider-Man game but not also make use of these features in one of them because it's a launch title? Also by your logic, Sony's first act after acquiring an independent Insomniac was forcing them to do something.
Sounds great and getting it day one but the Lost Legacy comparison may make people think it will be $40 like that not $60, either way $60 for a solid 8-10 hour campaign with replay able challenges seem good to me
Those games are made to sell consoles, that's like saying why they didn't downgrade R&C ps4 to work on ps3.
This is the most likely thing.
He's visiting her on Christmas, and Miles is kinda the understudy that finds himself in a crazy situation, and pulls up to become a better Spider-Man.
Lost Legacy is exactly what I'm thinking about when I say "expansion."
Yep, there's the whole Clone Saga, but even in more recent stories, Peter and Miles operate in NYC together and are both recognized as "Spider-Man" by the public. Heck, when Miguel was stuck in present day NYC, he was also known as "Spider-Man", so there were three separate Spider-Mans swinging around NYC at the same time.
I seriously don't get what the argue even is at this point.
I'd say that it depends on what some bigger devs are doing and how DF and the boards are talking about this. 30fps could easily become a troublesome thing in PR, it signals weak hardware more than anything else.
Yup, I see them saying that as comparatively, I say it will be around 10-12 hours to beat.
That's precisely my point and the main reason why Miles Morales won't be playable on a PS4, not because of technical impossibilities. And that R&C example isn't the same at all is it? There's a bigger difference between PS4's R&C and the last PS3 game than Miles and Spiderman on the PS4. At least from what we've seen so far.
As of now, no.
Ray tracing would obviously be disabled in a hypothetical performance mode.
A PS4 port is not a question of technical feasibility. If the Witcher 3 can be ported to Switch, you bet Miles Morales can be ported to work on the PS4. Of course, making the game work on three systems (PS5, PS4, PS4 Pro) would take a lot more effort than making it work just on the PS5.
But there are ZERO good reasons to do so. Miles Morales is literally the only first party game confirmed to be releasing with the PS5 this fall. It's a system seller. You don't put your system seller on your old system.

The current run of Amazing Spider-Man and Miles Morales: Spider-Man are both set in New York. Both co-exist fine. I'm not sure why you think this is an issue?
The Lost Legacy did use Uncharted 4 tech to help fast-track its development but is still a full game, longer than some previous Uncharted games, not as long as others. I'm not entirely sure where you're going with this.
You don't have proof of this and I'm not sure you will until you play it.
Going cross-gen with this release will undersell the power difference. Are you assuming this because you want a port, or are you in the know about something?
It would be fantastic if there was a performance option. Which has a history of showing in console games but sadly its not a standard.
Y'all, a LOT of next-gen sequels are going to re-use assets from current-gen games. A lot of the assets used in games were already built and used with multiple console generations in mind. It's not just about the base 3D model anymore.
a 4D scan also captures movement basically

Curious to see if we're gonna get faster swinging and a more dense city with the ped/traffic?
I remember them saying they had to slow down the swinging because of the hardware limitations on the PS4.

just the loading items alone, they would have to need to have literally two different versions of the game to support an HDD vs an SSD its not just easily made, the concept sure, but to say that you can just plop it as cross gen makes no sense at all.
exactly. especially if you have a fully modeled city. where they can push more detail etc but keep a similar model.
Same here! I just want a dedicated boost button when swinging, a charge bar for jump height and more speed. Set after that. I'll be there day one either way though honestly
That screenshot looks super clean I wonder if someone can pixel count because it looks waaay too clean for it to not be 4k
The first part is where I'm going with it. Game length has nothing to do with it. The point is rather than move on from all the tools and assets they perfected in U4, they had part of the team continue on through the development process. Lost Legacy was the result. That's what I personally mean by "expansion." The original meaning (expansion packs for PC games) hasn't really been applicable for a while.
You're right about this. But when I play it, my assumptions will be confirmed.
To be fair to the 'it's an expansion' people, the Wikipedia page for The Lost Legacy describes it as 'a standalone expansion to Uncharted 4 '. Someone in another thread made a decent pitch to me as to why they referred to Halo ODST as an expansion despite it being a fully standalone title that didn't require Halo 3 to play. It's basically semantics. Like ODST, The Lost Legacy started as a DLC expansion and was spun off into it's own standalone product. It's totally just semantics.
When Insomniac themselves are saying 'scope like The Lost Legacy', we all know what they mean by that. It doesn't matter if you consider that an expansion or not. They mean it's built upon and will likely be leaner than 2018 Spider-Man. Like The Lost Legacy. If it was going to be the same scope and size as Spider-Man 2018 and was being built from the ground up then they wouldn't have made that comparison.
Arguing about what an expansion is or isn't is kinda pointless at this point.
...assuming what, exactly? I'm saying there is no PS4 version confirmed. I'm just not convinced there won't be one.
I'm not buying a fucking Spider-Man game to spend time inside tiny ass NYC building corridors and apartments
He did RotR and is also credited as Creative Director on Spider-Man PS4
And yeah it seems there is a 3rd team doing Spider-Man 2
- Marcus Smith : Creative Director on Ratchet PS5
- Brian Horton : Creative Director on Miles PS5
- Bryan Intihar : probably Creative Director on Spider-Man 2 (he was on first one)
About 7 hours.
All great hours though. Tight and great game.
I wouldn't take that as 'Miles Morales will be 7 hours' though.
lmao right thats not really the point of a spider man game to be a life simulator
Hmm... Gwen has never been mention in Spider-man ps4 right? Maybe she's a roxxon test subject and we get SpiderGwen at the end of Miles MoralesMentioned this in the other thread, but based on the description of the story I get the feeling that it's adapting the Roxxon Storyline from the Ultimate Comics.
In it, the Roxxon Corporation got revealed to be behind the kidnapping and creation of a multiple metahumans. So I'm thinking the game may adapt that arc (minus Jessica Drew for obvious reasons) and throw in Techno Golem/Tomoe as a second villain and the leader of that High Tech Army.
That's very encouraging. ~7-hr campaigns has become a sweet spot for me. Having an overhauled city will also add a few more hours.
Thank you.
