The lights are on
[Update: Thanks to all who submitted questions! Listen to the podcast to see if yours was chosen.]
You've read the cover story. You've followed our online coverage. Now is your chance to ask the creators of Arkham Origins your questions.
Members of the Warner Bros. Games Montreal development team are scheduled to appear on an upcoming special edition podcast. Is there something you're still curious about? Post a comment below and we could ask it on air. Your username will be called out so you'll get credit for being incisive.
Go ahead and let loose!
Gameplay gameplay gameplay!!
Will this be a Metroidvania-in-3D game as well? Will they up the combo system? How will they shake things up from AA and AC?
They can nail everything but if this thing doesn't play as smoothly as the Rocksteady titles, they have already lost the fight.
Do you think Jewish people are going to get upset that it's Christmas themed? Because that's going to be funny
Since Batman doesn't get his grapple boost till Arkham City, will there be other ways of traversing the city, excluding the Batwing?
Also, have there been any tweaks to the combat to incorporate more
one-on-one fights? Considering what "world's deadliest assassins" entails, you would think a few of them could go up against Batman, hand to hand, in a fight.
you need CO-OP with Robin!!
Will we finally get to meet Alfred and Lucius Fox in Origins? Will Gordon play a bigger part (pretty please!)? Also, I noticed in GI's cover story that, when caught by Deathstroke, Batman refers to him by his first name, Slade. Have they met before or is Batman simply going on reputation?
Will Robin make an appearance in the game? Even if he isnt actually "Robin" yet?
Will the flying/gliding make a return or will it be completely revamped?
What kind of DLC will be made for Arkham Origins?
What is the likeliness of Robin appearing? If he does, could he get the Arkham makeover? I'd lose my *** if Speedo-wearing "Holy" catchphrases Robinn appeared in an Arkham title.
Is Kevin Conroy reprising his role as Batman? I mean it was bad enough Hamill stopped, but you can't have a Batman game without Conroy. That and ask them about the gameplay mechanics. Do they plan on keeping the same ones that were used in Asylum and City or do they have something new in store for us?
Co-Operative play or any multiplayer ideas?
I really enjoyed the Riddler challenges from the previous games. Any chance we will see them return or become expanded upon?
Any comment on the rumors of multiplayer being included?
What are some of your favorite Batman stories? Will the riddler have challenges layed around Old and New Gotham or something similar to it in place? Can we expect to see any lesser known villians? Would love to know.
Are there any opportunities for multiplayer? Be that co-op challenge mode, future DLC or even a competitive mode?
Will there be a collector's edition of the game? Also, any chance of downloadable content relating to Injustice (ex. an Injustice skin for arkham origins batman) or Injustice downloadable content tying into this game (ex. an Arkham Origins skin for Deathstroke)?
Is there going to be the wretched Games for Windows Live??
Are they taking it out and burning it? Because if not, then I REFUSE to buy this.
Because of Games for Windows Live I had to sit at my computer for 16 hours straight in order to finish the main storyline of Arkham City. You can't save!
1) I just replayed Arkham City today...as I looked out into the distance of gotham and saw the size and scale of it....How large is the size and scale of gotham planning to be? Will the city be a living breathing organism in itself?
2)As much as I'm afraid of it being done wrong, will there be any vehicle travel ie bat mobile and bat wing?
3)Considering this is a Origins...will there be a cut back on gadgets or inclusion of new ones?
4)Will there be an inclusion of great side quest like in Arkham City (I hope they go into more detailed story line with those)?
5)I might as well ask what everyone else is asking about any ideas of multiplayer?
I have faith in the franchise.
Will there be a homestead type thing (e.g. Wayne Manor)?
