Sony Stan's, not a dash of creativity.

If you are playing the flash time only has to slow down for you not the other three people. It's not like you are sharing a screen with them.

They see you zipping around, moving quickly or just moving regularly.


Flash power set in a open world game could be INSANE. The fact you are hype for Spiderman games, but don't understand how flash power set >>>>> spiderman game play wise :mjlol:


Flash could start off with basic traversal powers, that continue to get more and more insane as you unlock or upgrade them.

parkouring off building sunse overdrive rail riding off surfaces. Quick travel that shows him breaking the speed force, possibilities crazy and it could be super fun and interactive.

Flash combat could be insane too, stupid long and crazy viewiful joe combo's. Building up speed force allowing you to do crazy powerful moves like move backwards through time or rewind it, "freeze time" by moving ultra fast, phasing through things or temperature manipulation.

Defensive abilities would be amazing as well. Perfect dodging and parrying. Auto dodging or catching most bullets and projectiles.


Game could be absolute flames.

Again, you’re ignoring the fact that flash would have to play with 3 other powered characters in this instance.

And if we are talking about a solo game, theres a very good reason why no one is attempting to do it. Its nice to dream, but that shyt doesn’t work. The basic movement of the flash is this…

And who are you even fighting outside of a meta humans that even pose a risk? Robots? Fun…

Spider-man works because he’s not OP as hell, thats why daredevil would work, or batman, or wolverine, etc.

I’ve yet to see super speed done well in game, period.

And superman pretty much breaks every convention of a modern video game that exists. Sorry, I don’t see it
There are different incarnations of Superman. Superman from The Animated Series wasn't god-like but was still a force of nature. Rocksteady could easily make a Superman game with a "grounded" Superman like the one featured in that series.

:hubie: whatever you say breh



Again no since of creativity. :scust: Playing with 3 other characters doesn't matter if your not sharing the same screen.



A solo game works just fine, You just have to suspend your sense of reality and believability games do this ALL the time. I mean Who really is going to beat superman in a one on one on injustice? :stopitslime:



If you can play gow and are ok with kratos a god, and the god killer, fighting random monsters and creatures and struggling sometimes but then turning around and defeating the most powerful deities in his universe you should be able to reason how the flash could fight any and everyone in his game.

Kratos literally beat someone that would have had a similar power set to the flash with explosions and hand-to-hand combat...and you have no problem with that:mjpls:

Breh,we’re talking about superhero games dial down the “sony stans :mjlol:“ shyt for like two pages.:unimpressed:

Kratos is a big hulking axe weilding dude, its not hard to suspend belief that he can tear through 100 wraiths and mythological creatures. The only time he canonically has a hard time is with other gods.

I’m talking about game mechanics not lore. The main component of spider-man, or kratos is represented well through gameplay, they are strong (and not stupidly strong like superman) , and spider-man can shoot webs and feels agile. If we want a similar, accurate portrayal of what makes the flash special in game we have to provide him with opportunities to use his skill set.

Giving us bank robbers to fight isn’t realistic and just simply slowing everything down isn’t fun. The number one thing people love about spider-man is swinging around the open world, if you can’t feel fast as hell running around as flash its pointless.

And unless you’re fighting other speedsters or doing some weird boss speed puzzles against captain cold i really don’t see most combat encounters making a lot of use of his abilities

You say this but some of the flashes main baddies are non speedsters and dudes with elemental guns and boomerangs

Also kratos should not been able to beat a ton of the gods he has on paper, aka Hermes but just like you were able to suspend belief for battle like those and Heimdall you should be able to for the flash or whoever

Anyway it's not as hard to replicate as you think and if it's a non open world game it's even easier

The GAAS part isn't even that bad to me, tbh. The issue is the combat in the game seem stupid AF, like who wants to just shoot zap guns all over the place?

That's like somebody making a Ninja Turtle game and giving them all pistols and rifles and that's the primary mode of combat, lol.

And the ultimate challenge for him always boils down to “I just have to be faster”, its not about learning how to fight better, outsmarting his opponents (mostly), or learning some secret skill, its like….’how can i move fast enough to do this thing’ deus ex machina of the franchise. Everything is solved through speed.

Spider-Man and batman always have the potential to get their ass beat. You don’t go through an entire series or game as those characters and not have them beat to a bloody pulp eventually. The only time that happens to flash is by people who are faster than he is, to that point he just has to figure out how to run faster again.

Also kratos should not been able to beat a ton of the gods he has on paper, aka Hermes but just like you were able to suspend belief for battle like those and Heimdall.

Again, this is lore. This isn’t left up to the players to decide like moving fast. The game told us they figured out a way to supersede Heimdell precognition, so thats the tool they gave us.

You can’t explain away why the players can’t casually run from one end of the city to the other without fast travel as The Flash. There’s just no satisfying way to explain away the design choices around limiting his abilities

If there was an easy solution it would have been done already, flash is the most popular dc hero outside of the main 3. He should have had at least one AAA game already
