Hold up…what did I spoil? The question was could you fight him, and someone already answered yes. I didnt see any spoiler tags for that whole discussion and I know everyone didn’t have the various DLC so I just told where. It even says it before the damn challenge.
Apparently, anything can be a spoiler I guess. Someone is gonna come in and say that they didn’t wanna know how to open the GCPD shutter. Or that you even get an electromagnetic thingamajig. So this whole thread should really just be auto spoiler tags on every post. At least until Christmas.
So heres my question, I didnt get the game from Best Buy or wherever had the Robin bonus, so can I still play him on The Riddler maps or do I have to wait for his DLC to drop.
That?? That was the infamous “spoiler”?!? A guy that was in one of the first official trailers for the game and confirmed before the usual suspects. Wow…
Yo, my sincerest apologies. I mean that. But you know what I came across multiple times in this thread and site that actually lost it’s impact for me like on some spoiled RE4 shit?
Spoiler
The fact that you even encounter a shark, let alone have to punch him.
And that wasn’t in a trailer or 1,000 news sites. I didn’t want to know Phoenix Wright was in UMvC3 either. Because I probably was going to buy the game before finding out. Not anymore though. So yea, I guess I get it now.
i have yet to see this stranger. When and where does he pop up?
Yeah, u gotta kinda get used to popping into detective vision and looking for the blue destroyable walls/floors, and the yellow of security pads/electric door openers.
on that note, why the fuck does the gun have two firing modes? What is the difference between firing RT/R2 and RB/R1?
[spoiler=boss fight]more boss fights like the Mr Freeze fight, that was fucking FUN. Damn, I wish there was an option to fight certain chapters/bosses again without playing through the entire game again.

Once you beat the game, you can use the unlocked costumes in both NG+ and your original save. I’ve been flying around as Batman Beyond on the original save finishing up the trophies and side missions.
Side missions reset on NG+. Trophies do not. I’ll go through NG+ after I bang out everything on the original save.
Weird… The alt costume shows up on cut scenes for me… On both regular story and NG+…
Black Mask
Spoiler
One of the Challenge fights puts you on a side scrolling train where you fight Black Mask at the end of it. I think the stage is actually called “Black Mask.” It’s got a throwback vibe with the side scrolling. I like it a lot.
I’ve been having trouble with two of the side missions if anybody can help:
**
Mystery Man
Spoiler
I’ve bumped into him twice randomly but can’t seem to track him down any further… Anybody had better luck or know his locations?
**
**
Serial Killer
Spoiler
I found the faceless body in an alley and followed it to some guy with blood on his hands who apparently isn’t the killer. The trail went cold from there and I can’t find any further evidence. Anybody got something on this guy?
**
The rest of the side missions are fun. I love how you really have to think like Batman to get through some of this stuff. I’ll spend a half hour banging my head against a wall, then stop and rethink the whole situation. Turns out I’m doing it wrong every time. There is always some crafty new trick with a gadget that I’d never seen.
I dunno if its timed or if you gotta do certain things to unlock it, but you’ll eventually get a message about another faceless killer found. Just keep working at it, and you’ll find the killer. I am wondering if it’s Clayface, myself…
speaking of which, any mention of Clayface in this game? He had the briefest of cameo’s in the first game, and it would be a shame if you NEVER got a chance to take him on
[spoiler=Mystery Man]From what others have said, it’s Azrael. And from what I’ve read online, he leaves clues wherever he was standing, and if you get enough you realize it’s a map. Then you just track where he will be next, and meet him. Oddly enough, Batman has NO clue who he is, even though Bane discussed Knightfall in the last game

[spoiler=] I actually like the idea of Bane as a pseudo good guy in this game, although I almost guarantee he turns on you when you find all the venom. I still have one left to find in the old Steel Mill. [/spoiler]
[details=Spoiler] Yeah he pops up. He’s a major part of the story so that’s all I’ll tell you at this moment.
Edit: Actually if you REALLY want to know click…
[spoiler=MAJOR SPOILER]LAST CHANCE TO BACK OUT[spoiler=Seriously, major spoiler. Last Chance.]He’s actually posing as “Healthy Joker.” Joker never got the cure.[/details]
[/details]

Also, I went poking around the net for info on the Mystery Man and Serial Killer, apparently both tie into some easter egg hints for a 3rd installment. Major spoilers below, don’t look if you haven’t beat the story yet.
the side quests seemed to unlock depending on how many riddler trophies i found. like i would pick up a trophy and seconds later i would get a call about something
except that watcher shit. he seemed to pop up pretty random. just do regular shit and keep your eyes peeled for a dude standing up not moving with a heroic looking pose
Lol yeah it was awesome, caught me totally by surprise. I gotta say I am thoroughly impressed with the way they fit all these characters into the story.
Fight
Spoiler
I died a lot to that fight too. It was pretty difficult to avoid getting hit by the hammer and the Titan’s wild swings while that damn train kept hitting me. I probably spent an hour on that fight. I’d get down to just the Titan and Joker, get too comfortable, and Joker would take out my last sliver of health with a damn kick to the shin. Jerk.
Edit: Also for the questions I asked earlier about the Mystery Man and Serial Killer, I found a nice youtube playlist with guides to both and some of the other harder achievements.
Game is crack, I can’t stop playing it plus having my own music in the background is crazy!! I hooked up a playlist with the dark knight score the inspection score and now imma add some of the score music from the prestige shit is crazy beating peeps up with agent of chaos playing in the background.
There are so many side quest im gonna push thru right now then play more for fun 2nd play thru. I started on hard and shit is pretty tough. I love it though i gotta remember to go talk to calendar man on halloween lol.
