Batman: Arkham City

The hardest enemy in this game is the geometry. I've died so many times in the campaigns because I've:

- jumped and randomly grabbed onto something. And then I got riddled with bullets.
- tried to run and because my shoulder was in contact with some geometry I would run in the spot. And then I got riddled with bullets.
- tried to grapple to a gargoyle and instead grappled to a ledge beneath/next to/beside it. And then I got riddled with bullets.
- tried to hit a mook while he was standing on a mine and it turns out guards are completely invincible to close-quarters physical attacks while on a mine. And then I got riddled with bullets.
- grappled to a ledge and had my character instantly hop up it rather than stay hanging. And then I got riddled with bullets.
- used a quickfire gadget and had my character aim it at a completely random enemy. And then I got riddled with bullets by the guy I actually wanted to hit.

If you hold R1 down when you grapple, Batman hangs from the ledge instead of popping over the top.

I think he's saying its glitchy

No Moose is right, you can scratch that one off the list.

Why are you trying to fight enemies that have guns? You're the Batman, you have other options.

Actually I'm Catwoman and no I don't.

Stop being Catwoman then.

Oh right. Genuinely i thought you would have noticed this, lol. I thought moose was being a dick like normal.

When i have the game again if you still haven't ocmpleted any challenges and want tips rather then going through walkthroughs i'll help you out. But i reckon you'd have finished this all by next month unless you rage quit.

I wish you could play as cat woman for longer. The training missions are hard.

But I thought if you finished the game you lost some of the missions. Anyone know which missions these are?

You don't lose any side missions by finishing the story.

Yeah you can play as catwoman as much as you like post game to IIRC. She also has her own riddler trophies floating about town and don't forget you can use her in challenge maps.

Is that when you complete the game on hard mode?

No, any difficulty. Just look on your map for the catwoman marker and you can swap characters.

Thanks Neo any idea how you find them? can you missions as catwoman? Or do you have beat the game first?

If you download Catwoman after you start the game, the icons for the swap locations don't show on the map. You can play Catwoman's missions from the main menu, or just play the game over and it switches to Catwoman automatically when she has a mission.

I downloaded it before I started playing but I dont know what to look for.

Should be a pink cat icon or something. There's 3 of them. There are cats on the rooftops in-game to indicate where they are. There's 1 opposite Penguin's museum, 1 above neon Gotham Docks sign, and 1 on top of Catwoman's apartment near the court house.

Thank you moose

Next installment in the series is a prequel

Played this game again, after completing Arkham Asylum for the third time, this time I really loved Asylum, must be because I got used to the combat system I disliked early when I played it.
I still think City is the best of the bunch when it comes to gameplay, and combat smoothness.

What's fun is how in the combat challenges the beat down helps double the highest score the challenge demands, can be tedious, but the counter enemies make you do add to the variety of moves, and helps with the variation bonus.

Predator Rooms in Riddler's Revenge are fun, but man, the Top of the World one is hard.
