Aquasnake posted:Can someone please elaborate on why everyone is in love with dual predator? I'm in NG+ about to get to Panessa. And if I remember correctly. Dual predator means you get three free long range silent takedowns... and that's it I think? Did I miss something awesome my first run through? It doesn't seem worth all the hype it gets. in a game where you're being endlessly given dumb loving tank sections and car puzzles and annoying riddler poo poo, something like Dual Predator is heavenly and different and actually is cool because hey, it's Batman and Robin both teaming up to do cool poo poo. Crowetron posted:Honestly, I'm actually considering not even bothering with Batgirl and trading this game in somewhere while I can still actually get something for it. It's a gorgeous game, the punching is fantastic, and there's even a fair share of fun plot moments, but there's just so many huge lows that are making me not really want to pick it back up again any time soon. The barely existent challenge maps, the dull as hell tank fights, the nasty ratio of boring repetitive side-quests to actually good ones... I'm on the same fence a bit. Like, all the cool poo poo like Season of Infamy and even potential Challenge Maps won't come till at least September or later, and by then I'd rather play Mad Max, MGSV, or Mario Maker. Beautiful game with good highs but they hosed up so many things it would have been easy to just not gently caress up. DLC Inc fucked around with this message at 15:22 on Jul 15, 2015 |

Hey I did just about everything in the Batgirl DLC and theres something bothering me In the building under the oil rig tower, and really pretty much all the easter eggs, if you use detective mode you can see an unarmed person, alive with similar animation like a hostage standing next to something hackable. I have not found a way to be able to enter it and seeing how Post Game doesn't have any NPCs you can talk too I'm wondering if it's just some kind of weird glitch. Also isn't it kind of weird this DLC happens on Valentines Day? Maybe all the DLC will be on a holiday and we'll get some kind of Christmas themed Calender Man dlc finale

I was thinking about MGSV when making that last post, but holy poo poo I forgot the Mad Max game was coming out then, too. I was really hoping Arkham Knight would tied me over until September with fun punch-mans, but it's really barebones when it comes to the actually cool bits. It's a shame because these games are the closest modern games have to old school beat-em-ups (DMC-alikes are a lot more technical and I could easily be overlooking a million cool indie games I've never heard of tbh). The Batmobile is the autoscrolling levels of the modern era.

I would have loved the option to custom make predator or even combat scenarios---I think that alone would be terrific but would never happen because they need your $40 for their own lovely maps

The Batmobile is boring because it has no real depth to it. You can't switch things up for fun even if you want to. Your options in combat are "stay out of line, shoot enemy with cannon" and "stay out of line, shoot glowy point with vulcan" if you're feeling saucy. Your options when driving are "press afterburner, stay in sight." You get upgrades but they're only for tank mode and honestly swapping between them is only for flavor rather than distinct uses since otherwise you're probably just going to use drone hack.

The Batmobile would be alright if it wasn't slower than gliding 90% of the time. The tank combat was easy as all poo poo and took like 20 seconds so it never really bothered me even if it was way too frequent.

A couple ending notes: It looks like Todd painted that new red hood/whatever symbol onto his chest- it's the same symbol that appears next to the building you enter for the endgame. The side columns in the newspapers have fully written stories in them, too. Once I finally get a computer that can run my copy, I'm going to have a lot of fun looking at all the conditionals and easter eggs they've layered this with.

If you don't start all your travels by powersliding through groups of street thugs then hitting the afterburner down a straightaway and finally catapulting out of the Batmobile toward a grapnel point, what are you even doing with your life.

The batmobile is actually kind of neat when you are using it for puzzles. Also, there was one riddle that was hard for me to do when I trying racing there with gliding alone, but when I drove the batmobile there, I made the time limit easily.

I do start this but then the batmobile slips and slides all over the place like its wheels are made out of butter and I miss my target on the very first step so I just hop out and beat the thugs up instead.

Batmobile handles fine. Use the handbrake and boosts to controll slides. It's not hard.

I'm leaning more towards bug, but it could also be the hostage you rescue in the early goings. Don't you hack a scare tactic thing as your introduction to those to rescue him? I'm thinking it's him, but I couldn't figure out any way to get down to where that area is. The tapes were neat though.

I fell into it and totally love it but I get how it would be tremendously offputting to someone who doesn't get it. It's definitely the thing that feels least like Batman in the game.

I actually approached the game expecting the Batmobile to be a complete and total disaster, and was pleasantly surprised. It would be nice if I could drive it without having to constantly not touch the control stick to prevent oversteering, though. On hard mode trying to avoid all the things while still finding time to fire at enemies is really, really tense IMO. I beat the hardest bomb challenge by constantly leaving the arena and circling around before I timed out. Alfred yelled at me a lot.

Oh my god I am going to kill myself. I'm sitting at 99.4℅ completion here, and there are two Riddler trophies on one of the airships that have bugged out and I can't get them. They're behind security panels, and when I try to hack them, Riddler tells me I have to clear the room. There's nothing to clear, rear end in a top hat! Give me the trophies! Anyone else found a solution to this that doesn't involve starting a New Game+? It'll take me loving hours to get back here. Apparently other people are having this issue, and it hasn't been patched since launch. This is the first and last time I try to 100℅ one of these games, I swear.
