Best Spider-Man 2 Swinging Settings

You can use the following four Spider-Man 2 Swinging Settings for the best web-slinging experience:

Swing Steering Assistance (Slider 0-10)Start with default 10 and decrease It slowly as you get a better hold of the Swinging Mechanics.
Slow Corner TimescaleOFF
Webline BendingON
Fall DamageOFF

Swing Steering Assistance

This dictates the amount of control your left stick will have in your swinging direction.

  • At 10, it will be fully assisted, and Spider-Man will swing in a straight line with your Left Stick having minimal impact.
  • At 0, your Left stick fully dictates Spidey’s motion mid-air and might lead to Spider-Man crashing into trees and buildings.

By default, it is set to 10, full assistance like the previous two titles, but reducing it to enjoy better physics is fun. You should start at 10 and slowly reduce it to 0 as you get a better hold of the Swinging mechanics.

Slow Corner Timescale

Turning a corner can occasionally mess up the camera, and enabling this feature helps with such issues. When this setting is enabled, the game slows down so you have a consistent visual speed while taking sharp turns to reduce camera disorientation.

However, the resulting slowdown ruins the experience, so it is recommended that you keep it OFF.

Webline Bending

Weblines play a key role in the Stealth gameplay of Spider-Man 2. Enabling this setting puts a realistic bend in web lines as you walk on them. It doesn’t impact your gameplay in any way. But it is recommended to keep it ON as it’s a nice realistic touch.

Fall Damage

Enabling Fall damage will cause Spider-Man to lose health if you fall from a straight height. It is another realistic touch to the Spider-Man 2 world, but it can sometimes be problematic. Therefore, it is recommended to keep it OFF

These are the Best Spider-Man 2 swinging settings you can use. To learn more about the game, head over to eXputer’s Review of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.
