Ubisoft promises that Star Wars Outlaws will be the first open world game in the series and an insider claims that loading will be smooth.

When commenting on how fast and fluid the fast travel of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is on PS5, Tom Henderson replied " wondering how people will respond to what Ubisoft is doing with Star Wars Outlaws" in this sense.

I know this is really left field, but 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 with Star Wars Outlaws.

If it's 30fps

Why is it phrased like that?

People will think it's really cool if it's done as well or better. Why are there constantly these sinister undertones?

What's the point of this tweet? Like show it or STFU.

 

[HeWhoWalks]

Spider-Man can't have all the thunder!

 

[SlimySnake]

The trailer showed a pretty long sequence of you leaving the world on a ship then going into space and using FTL to go into another solar system. It was seamless sure, but very long. I wonder if they will just let you fast travel from the map without ever getting into your ship. But starfield does this and people hate it.

I have no doubt the tech will be cool. It's just a shame that it will be attached to a Ubisoft game.

Show in the doll where the Spider bit you.


Can't wait to see Outlaws to be honest.

 

[ChiefDada]

Wait, I'm not sure if Tom is saying that with the tweet though. It actually sounds like he thinks people may not be satisfied. Idk is there additional context?

 

[Sethbacca]

I'm looking forward to this one. Depending where the release falls in proximity to the assumed ps5 pro, this may be one I wait to play on the pro.

Are you talking about Star Wars or Spiderman?

Feels a bit like they're just trying to say "Me Too!" in response to the positive Spider-Man 2 reviews. I don't think it's really anything more than that.

Spiderman is an Arkham Clone more than a Ubisoft one.
And unlike most Ubisoft games at least it has fun combat, isn't bloated to oblivion with boring repetitive content and doesn't feel like it was written by a pre release beta version of Chatgpt.

No issue with fast travel, it means faster traveling, of course you could take the long way.

Why even say anything?

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Well I can tell you that not even the devs working on the game know what he's talking about there lol.

Probably to downplay the technique used by Insomniac. Which is really just a better version of GTA5.

 

[thief183]

So another no effort movement like assassin's creed and Spiderman.... awesome....

Why "report" on something you can't verify though?

 

[Lucifers Beard]

In other news, there will be evil characters called villains and blasters that go pew pew.

SSDs at these speeds should mostly eliminate loading times in game, this should be standard in open world games. I'd be annoyed if it was anything less at this stage of the generation.

 

[rofif]

lol 1000% this sounds like an ad

No issue with fast travel, it means faster traveling,

Massive definitely knows their shit when it comes to tech. imo they also know their shit with gameplay.
