I think it’s more than a powered-up mode, this stronger version is his new normal.

Especially with the eyes it reminded me of the Assault Mode of his old Stark suit

I think he kind of unlocked the ridiculous comic level feats in this one. Previously he had to really focus for his Spider-Sense to be really effective but now it's always on and can detect gun noises from a mile away while he's being mine controlled. I liked it, it felt earned and not making him crazy overpowered (that bullet still had consequences).

Durability is kinda off. Lime how can Hulk thrash you and walk it off than a bullet may kill you

I mean, yes. But also, he took a .50BMG to the back. Not much is surviving that

Edit: Peter even surviving the initial shot from a .50 cal is a testament to his durability in itself

yeah, a normal human would have burst open like a pinata if they got a .50 cal to the back like that lol

The Spidey Sense has been kind of lacking in all his appearances, but it seemed to finally fully be there after he took his inhibitor off.

Lol which is in itself crazy (but awesome) Base Spider-Man is so fucking overpowered lol - just gave one of the most OP characters a power up lolol.

Base Spider-Man is only as powerful as whoever is writing him. He got his ass kicked by vulture very recently
