Patch 1.001.003 Archives

The latest patch for Marvel's Spider-Man 2 addresses a number of issues, including correcting an incorrectly displayed flag in Miles Morales' apartment. This article delves into the details of the changes introduced by patch 1.001.003, its implications for the game, and how it aligns with Insomniac's broader commitment to accuracy and representation. Inaccurate Flag Display in Miles Morales' Apartment One of the major points addressed in this new update is an error concerning the flag displayed in Miles Morales' apartment. Both Miles Morales and his mother Rio are of Puerto Rican descent, yet players noticed that the flag displayed in and outside of the apartment was Cuban. Although similar in design, the Cuban and Puerto Rican flags differ in color. Insomniac has now corrected this mistake, replacing the Cuban flag with the Puerto Rican flag.

The developer stated, "Today's patch corrects an error where the Cuban flag was incorrectly displayed instead of the Puerto Rican flag. We understand that accurate representation matters, and greatly regret this error. We sincerely apologize and will do better in the future." The statement underlines the developer's commitment to accurate representation in their games. Other Issues Addressed by Patch 1.001.003 Besides the flag correction, the patch also fixes various other bugs that players encountered. One such issue turned Spider-Man into a cube during long play sessions. Additional fixes include improvements to the loading of models after prolonged play and adjustments to the brightness of The Amazing 2 Suit's Spider logo.
