It was very obvious who Arkham Knight really was right from the beginning if you know the comic lore. I didn't mind who it was, but what aggravated me was how Rocksteady blatantly lied about it.

I find if you do mostly the main mission, it's a lot of Batmobile stuff in a row. But if you intersperse it with side missions, it's a nice balance.

I really enjoy this game when I'm not in a vehicle, and I know where to go and what to do. Otherwise, it's kinda lame. Unfortunately, those parts I enjoy seem to amount to about a third of the game. So 1/3 of the game is great 2/3 of it is lame.

No it's my fault. I wasn't paying attention and just clicked the tag by accident. Like I said though that's who I figured it was.

62% complete so far, I'm really enjoying it. I've finished a lot of the side missions, which i'm going to try and complete except for the Riddler stuff which I never cared enough to spend a lot of time on. I do think there's too many Batmobile sequences which aren't particularly fun, but like Supermallet mentioned it's easy to break it up and do other things. I think story wise this is my favorite by far at this point.

Was thinking while playing at some point last night that I thought there was too much time in the Batmobile, but then I found myself chasing those damn APC's for 40 minutes without complaint, so what do I know.
Really enjoying the game thus far, though.

As to playing the other characters, I agree that I wish that was flushed out a bit more. I wasn't too impressed playing as Nightwing or Robin, but I loved playing as Catwoman and

FUCK the Batmobile and trying to shoot tanks before they shoot me. This game is getting no more of my time.

Most of the tank battles have been pretty easy for me. Just sit in battle mode and use the side swipe to easily move out of the way of the lines, and fire the vulcan gun to shoot the locked on missiles. And aim for the turrets at the top of each of the opposing vehicles to one shot them.

The riddles in this game seem tricky to me. I've only figured out one of them so far but I haven't really been seeking them out too much. Mostly just when one appears on screen when I enter a room.

My issue with them isn't that they're difficult, it's that they're tedious and dull. I can't believe people gave this shit a pass.

Yeah, the drone fights with the Batmobile are cool at first, but there are just way too many of them and they get tedious and dull by the end of the game.
That reminds me of how they overdid the Riddler trophies in Arkham City and it got tedious and dull collecting them all...

i can't even get past the first tanks attack. is there a trick to battling these guys?
is the dodge thruster, the only useful move for these fights?

Re: Batman: Arkham Knight - 6/23/15 on Xbox One, PS4, and PC
ok thanks. i wouldn't say i dodged traffic in the very first chase mission, more like i ran everything over in my path and some how caught up to the vehicle. if that is the first of many, i may have to shelve this...

I don't recall the first attack, but all I do for the battles is stay in battle mode holding the left trigger (i never bothered changing the controls, but got used to it), use the little side swipe moves with the A button to dodge when the lines are pointed at you before they turn red, and fire while aiming at the turrets of the tanks attacking you.
Driving takes some getting used to, but there's plenty of city to drive around and practice on. I felt it was pretty easy compared to driving in other open world games honestly.

Are you talking about the drone tank battles or the sidequest where you chase the APCs? Your first post sounded like the former, but now this post sounds like the latter.
