Batman: Arkham Knight

[Boom]

I for one could use a full-fledged detective game with some combat elements, with realistic lighting effects.

 

[X Knight]

I still want a Cass Batgirl game, damnit!!

Hopefully she's a premier skin for Black Canary in Injustice 2. Would fit since both were trained by Shiva.

 

[TX85]

Meh, she can be a playable character for training/challenge mode

but their movesets are entirely different. So, I don't see that happening.

if anything, Robin's moveset is very close to what Cass would play like.

but, I believe they said there would be no gender-swapping premier skins.

I don't think so. Sure IJ's Dinah uses a lot of TKD, but I always felt that Cass is an acrobatic grappler, which Dinah also is in spades. Take away the Canary Cry and their move set is pretty much the same IMO. Damian has the smoke bombs and League training that's pretty much his only overlap with Cass.

If anything Damian is a dead ringer for Ra's. Even the sword can be replaced by a scimitar and the batarangs swapped with throwing stars.

but I'm not sure if the premier skins will change any of the moves or traits.

I mean it's possible, but I don't think it's likely.

The deserted Gotham route doesn't bother me much. So long as this portion of Gotham is massive, I'm ok. If it's all true that is.

 

[TX85]

At least give us more options to do around the city besides a couple of side missions and riddler trophy hunting. Would be very nice able to go to the batcave like in Origins and change costumes than on the main menu.

Let me go into Wayne Manor too and find a lot of easter eggs.

 

[Broseph44]

If the Batmobile is involved it needs to be toned down more. Don't shove it down our throats making us rely on it almost constantly.

 

[X Knight]

Batmobile was a turn off in Knight. really broke the flow of the gameplay, imo.

 

[Broseph44]

I liked the idea of it and wouldn't have minded it so much if they used it more sparingly, instead of constantly relying on it.

 

[DJ Kornphlake]

I liked the batmobile, just not the battank.

 

[TX85]

A batmobile mission or two in the story is enough. Should mostly be used in free roam as an option.

I wouldn't be upset at all if the bat tank feature would get removed or toned down to just a few gadgets

 

[Jick]

The premise is beyond boring. I didn't even play Knight yet and I'm not looking forward to, and I loved the other 3 games.

This seriously needs to be just a dumb rumor. They need to bring something new to the series.

 

[Mani-Man]

Hasnt this insurgency rumor already been debunked?
Im a bit lost on where we stand on a new batman game...i hope the E3 clears some of that up.

The deserted Gotham route doesn't bother me much. So long as this portion of Gotham is massive, I'm ok. If it's all true that is.

Yeah, i couldnt care less about that.
I mean, what would it bring to have dozens of people walking around?
Especially in a city like gotham...at night?
Who would be crazy enough to go out there?

Give me a couple of crimes in progress, something like the political prisoners but otherwise i dont need normal citizens around.
I rather take dozens of thugs i can beat up.

In the end i would take a hundred batman games with the same formula instead of none...those last two years felt like 50...i need new batman material.

The Arkham Knight basic gameplay has still so much potential, it should be used.

 

[Nardz937]

Please let Insurgency be real.

Please, please, pretty please.

 

[AnneFan]

I'm not going to say no to another Batman game. I hope it's real too.

The initial leak on Insurgency stated the batmobile would primarily be used for chasing down thug vehicles and disabling them with EMP and missiles. Looking forward to that, if true.

 

[Havok83]

Apparently the upcoming game originally had Damian Wayne as the main character

https://segmentnext.com/2017/05/02/...e-apparently-previously-starred-damian-wayne/

thats a disappointment if true. I was looking forward to Damian

 

[John Locke]

I'm all for another Arkham game but this sounds like they are remaking City.

 

[TX85]

I wonder how many years this takes place before Arkham Asylum. It seems like a prequel but a sequel to Origins. What was the time line from Origins to AA?

The court of owls will be the main threat but the rogues will probably be side missions, which I'm guessing includes Joker since this is prequel.

Yeah I know this is just a rumor right now but if it becomes true, I am very curious about the time line.

 

[DrCosmic]

NPC's mean more time and effort being put into it, that's basically all it is.

It's a little bit more than that. There's a lot more computing action that goes into a city full of pedestrians rather than having a few guys on the street.

Plus, thematically, it makes running down the street much less cool, and further, it makes driving the Batmobile absolutely sadistic.

Not that these issues can't be solved, but they take work.

 

[Nardz937]

Make of this what you will.

 

[Mani-Man]

Hm, interesting...or not.
We cant do much more than wait, do they answer to more tweets like that? It could be simple teasing to keep their name around.

I just finished Telltales Batman and i think at least the Dent part could work with the arkham formula.
Really like the idea of a story focused on Harvey and how his sickness slowly takes over.
