Industry Expert Rings Bells Early for Gamers to Possibly See a Better Seamless Travel Tech Than Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has many improved features compared to the last game. Insomniac has meticulously improved the Ray-Tracing on buildings, water bodies, and reflective surfaces. These improvements also led to detailed shadows and realistic shadows. While graphics is not the only thing the studio has worked on. They have seemingly mastered fast travel.

While fast travel is usually almost instantaneous, how Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 showcases them has left fans in awe. Many fans of the series have taken to Twitter to speak about the smoothness of the feature, but one video game expert has a different opinion.

Tom Henderson’s take on Fast Travel

As everyone has been talking about the fast travel feature in Spider-Man 2, Tom Henderson, an industry expert has his own perspective. While he was impressed with how Insomniac approached Fast Travel, he spoke about how Ubisoft’s Star Wars Outlaws will change the game.

Tom Henderson takes on Twitter and shares his opinion stating “Seeing everyone talk about Spider-Man’s fast travel tech and seamlessness makes me wonder about how people will respond to what Ubisoft is working on...” This states that the original poster has had access to a glimpse of what Ubisoft has in store for players. The post makes it clear that he is quite impressed with the feature in Star Wars when compared to Spider-Man 2.

One curious follower went on to ask if their statement meant “good or bad?” To this, Tom replied by saying that although the demo of Star Wars looked good, fans will need to wait for a proper report once the game comes out.

Speculations building on Tom Henderson’s thoughts

While the hype is still on Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, Tom tries to divert the attention towards Star Wars Outlaws. This might be due to the mechanics being more impressive than expected. Spider-Man 2 introduced a new style of fast travel, where players can select where they want to go on the map and Spidey will instantly be seen flying into the frame at the given location. This feature is more impressive considering the scale of the Spider-Man map and how fast the game loads the assets.

Although Star Wars Outlaws is a heavy game, it is expected to accomplish the same. From what Tom said, we can speculate that fast travel might have a more universal application. It could extend beyond covering just one city. With nothing known about the upcoming Star Wars game, it is known that Jedi Survivor had a fast-travel feature. Although this feature received some criticism, players can only travel from one discovered meditation point to another. Tom has hopes for the next game in line.

That being said, while there is nothing known about Outlaw’s fast travel, fans have speculated the use of the Force to make it happen. As Star Wars Outlaws has no official release date, the devs have announced that it will be out in 2024. Now all fans can do is wait for a glimpse of the game to see what Ubisoft has in the works. That being said, are you excited for it?
