He is the center of the DC Universe,as has been stated before. DC probably mandated it.

Honestly this is pretty in-character for Riddler at this point in the Arkhamverse.

Goddamn Batman, solving all my good puzzles. gently caress him, here's a Need For Speed level.

EDIT: Preload is almost 34 GB. That's...not all that bad, really. Compared to the hell that was GTA5 anyway.

Yeah, that's why I'm OK with the racetracks.

Hey,I'm one of the folks who got the digital preorder for the PS4,and the Harley DLC isn't showing up (as in,the "Arkham Episodes" tab is greyed out) even though the PS4 says it's installed. Is there something wrong with the PS4 or the game? Or do I have to use these code vouchers my friend randomly gave me?

More relevant to Arkham Knight, wasn't this how Jason came back to be the crazy Red Hood in that animated movie?


That's one of my favorite animated movies,better than Assault on Arkham and Son of the Batman,for sure.

I've been making really good progress on the Riddler,only one thing left on Bleake Island. Thing is,it's this weird-rear end trophy in this underground area with 3 "?" targets protected by a force field,with a Batmobile power-up winch next to it.

I thought I could just EMP the force field and get up there with a remote Batarang,but that only hits one target and using the EMP again resets it. Any advice from Goons who have done it?

Do the EMP, then eject from that car and do the line launcher perch so that you stay above it.

I'll try that,but it doesn't seem to work while I'm gliding or otherwise midair.

Bleake Island is done-just got 2 more trophies on Miagani Island before I clear out Founder's-one of those loving time trials where I have to find just the right pad/winch spot to trigger , and one of those "follow the trail with the Batmobile's sonic thingy" ones that leads to a gate seemingly made of Adamantium.
The timed one will be a cinch when I find the Goddamn pad or whatever,but this other one completely baffles me. It's the one by Wayne Tower,for reference.

Go inside the central station on foot first. There's a switch to raise the gate.

IF you're quick you can get back to the trail before it regresses right back to the beginning.

Ah,OK,I'll try that when I get home. Thanks!

I want a Batman '66 game that has the old school Batmobile, takes place only during the daytime, and has cameos by entertainers sticking their heads out of windows when Batman and Robin walk up the side of a building via bat-rope. I want Sammy Davis Jr popping his head out so I can give him a lecture on civic responsibility. I want giant set pieces like over-sized typewriters, an abundance of things in the city related to the number 2, thugs in domino masks running down the street with bags full of cash that have a $ sign on them, and a swinging dance number where I have to do the right dance combos until I get to the Batusi and win. The GCPD should be full of cops using a stereotypical Irish-American accent. I want my goddamn Bat Shark-Repellent. I'll preorder it now for $250 if need be.

But that isn't DARK AND GRITTY enough for a Batman game,according to the same people who liked Man of Steel.

I have no desire to see a goofy Batman '66 AAA game and hated Man of Steel.

That's fine. I'm just saying that because the majority of the people I've talked to about it were in one of two catagories:
1.Loves goofy camp,hates dark and edgy stuff.
2.Thinks edgy stuff is the bestest EVAR! (the people in Camp 2 were mostly idiots,as expected)

No one I know personally has fallen into your "In-Between" camp,honestly.

Man of Steel was good.

Because a movie where Supes acts like an rear end in a top hat,gets so many people killed,and straight-up murders a guy when non-lethal alternatives where available totally gets the character right.

But that's a discussion for a different thread,I'll leave it there.

In fairness, Batman does these exact things in this game.

But for Batman,it doesn't feel as outta character as Man of Steel,probably because Joker and some members of the Bat-Family call him out a few times on his BS. There's no one to do that for Supes.

Alright, there's a Riddler trophy outside Panessa Studios that I'm too stupid to get - There's three question marks that need to be hit to unlock it and there's an electrified ceiling. I can EMP the ceiling to shut it off with the Batmobile, but doing that also shuts off the question marks. I can get a remote batarang up there and just hang out til the question marks come back on, but then I can only hit one of them that way and using the EMP again on the ceiling resets it. What am I doing wrong?

Yeah,that one was a pain in the rear end for me,too-try and get yourself on the Grey Ghost sign or another outcropping ,pop a Zip-Line,stand on it so the field activates,then just pelt the targets. That's what I did anyway.

Edit:or do the the other suggestions,those should also work.

Also I loving would love that a few years from now, someone does a Batman game that sort of mimics the Dark Knight Returns. Underground Batman. Older, Guerrilla style. Maybe something kind of Assassin's Creed meets Arkham. A network of Bat-Gang. Etc...

So would that mean that this would be a bossfight? Sign me the gently caress up.

I take back everything I said. This tunnel boss fight is complete garbage.

There's a bright side to that sequence: The loving P.O.S. Batmobile gets destroyed at the end of the encounter . At least until you get another loving one, 'cause that stupid car is the loving center of the universe or something! :argh:

Having suffered through NG+, there should be a mod (once the PC version actually works,of course) that replaces all the AK's Dialogue with this . He'd be instantly less obnoxious.

I now keep imagining Jason going on his whiny tirade,then BOOOM! His head ka-splodes! Then cut to the Loneliest Merc, AKA the REAL Arkham Knight, clutching a smoking shotgun while Bats recoils in horror and Joker goes "Ohhhh,that was anticlimactic." Or something like that.

Maybe that means it transforms into a humanoid combat form.

Also they retroactively make all the terrible batmobile combat into badass humanoid combat with a transforming robot car instead.

But that would make it a Transformers game. Maybe with the shooting controls of Fall of Cybertron and the open world maps of the Armada PS2 game? It'd be better than AK,at the least. Provided High Moon makes it,of course.

Edit: or make the Mech Mode happen only occasionally as a last-ditch measure ,but whenever Bats has to boot it up,Instruments of Destruction starts playing. :black101:
