@@Spark-bw3ph yea but isnt that just press button to grab the bat on the ground and then you ascend into bat-batman? its not really a combo finisher :)
@@calvinsFuntimeBounceHouseI would say it replaced the bat swarm since they went for the weapon pick up over the swarm, it’s not a combo replacement but I would say it’s still a replacement
I always thought Bat Swarm was useless. I guess I'm an idiot for not realizing its true purpose. Great vid, bro. Thanks. Time to break my personal records once more.
I used to use it to clear the way to stun the titan thugs, but I've since found it's usually better to lead all of them the wrong way and try to start the three stun combo from across the room. If you have people coming up to attack, the third stun in the ultra stun cancels it so if you can get 1.5 stuns in without issue, you can usually commit
Seriously the only thing that got me through the jokers carnival map. Goes for all characters too, robins staff swing, cat woman’s whip trip, and nightwings electric blast :)
I was about to comment this. When I realized you can perma-stun him with the Bat-Swarm the Joker's Carnival map went from ultra-hard to medium difficulty for me
Still finding it a missed opportunity from Rocksteady that they didn't brought back the Abramovici twins (Mister Hammer and Sickle) in Arkham Knight as henchman for Two-Face. In the Arkham Knight comics they worked for Penguin I thought but they would be perfect for Two-Face's M.O. if you ask me.
@@pieprincess5778 In this game, yes. In Arkham City, Sickle does work for The Penguin (and Mister Hammer is Joker's Ace). I'm talking about their abscense in Arkham Knight and the missed opportunity they had to have work for Two-face in said game. After the death of the Joker in Arkham City, both Abramovici twins would join up with Penguin in the Arkham Knight Comics. But if you ask me, Two-Face would have been more interesting choice. He was the third party in Arkham City and the only one without a twin AND they fit his leifmotif.
@@pieprincess5778 Their canonicity is dubious yes. Some I think, the original ones for Arkham City for example, are canon. Arkham Unhinged definitely not and the Arkham Knights one, I don't know. Perhaps secondary canon... (Canon in the parts not contradicted by the games). But it is clear from them that they hadn't forgotten about the twins but it is a bit disappointed that their adventure only continues in the comics (with its dubious canon) and that they didn't appear in Arkham Knight. And even more so, because they would work perfect as Two-Face henchmen...
dont be, if you want embarassment then go find stealthy or whatever his name is, he does 3 star challenge maps in 17 seconds, because all the baddies are knocked in a chain that he sets up :)
If you do that on PC, the Abramovich brothers, whichever one you're fighting, will often desynchronize their animations from the attacks' hitboxes, which makes their attacks invisible and unpredictable; I like to freeze them until I've taken out major threats in the room like shields and guns, and then take them out as quickly as possible to avoid the bugs.
Mysterious Shrimp recently made a video where he binded the attack button to a free scrolling mouse wheel, you can make Batman attack insanely fast on the brothers.
Never thought to do that. I would just beat him up, and just as he was about to swing, I would evade behind him and continue. If he switches again, I evade again and so on. And all those missed attacks would end up hitting the other guys trying to interrupt me. Took him out just as fast. Hard difficulty, BTW.
Well spotted! I didn't know about this. I love the Arkham games (the four 3D ones, I mean, I've not played Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate), Batman: Arkham Knight is my favourite, but I think that they are all fantastic. I wish Rocksteady/Warner Bros. had continued with this series.
It's sad that Warner Bros the parent company has become so money hungry, they forced Rocksteady to make KTJL more for profit than an enjoyable game, we're probably never getting another Arkham
Now imagine using it in free flow focus mode with the gadget upgrade, you would’ve knocked out all the thugs finishing off mr hammer with no intel else after
That's pretty much what I did for all my City runs after playing for the first time. Its also an easy way of getting higher scores in the combat challenges.
After playing Arkham City more than 4 times I finally decided to finish all the riddler stuff and I was not disappointed, had a freaking brain aneurysm from a couple of them because I was overthinking the damn things but that's what TH-cam is for
Bro it's easy just when you beat the hammer guy and some thug trying to hit you , counter him and when the hammer man trying to hit you evade him from the back and continue beating him . There is a skill I can't remember it but when you have 12 combo or above , the enemies movement will be a bit slow, it will help you
When i played Arkham Knight after Origins(my first full complete Arkham game) i thoungt that move was ussless so that why they remove it. But when i played Arkham City that move was so OP
@@calvinsFuntimeBounceHouseI love origins it just sucks that it's not digital and remastered so I can't play it on the ps5 or Xbox series S which I had the disc for it on the ps3 but It got too dusty and scratched up throughout the years of having it, so I can't play it anymore🤦.
It a shame that we never got the bat swarm special movement in Arkham knight.
hm we got multiground, the main 1 guy finish, and weapon destroy.. yea i dont know what if anything replaced the swarm..

That sound effect after knocking out a thug is so satisfying.

Wonder if limiting your Max fps in Nvidia / AMD control panel for this game specifically to 60 would fix the issue or not.
@@quantizedansonyou would just limit it at the game level no need to mess with the GPU controls in their apps
Only when he swings his sickle, which you are safe from by dodging over him.
This has been my strategy since the game released lol
Same
The best use for the bat swarm to be honest besides getting some goons off your back for a few seconds.
Speachless
"What's wrong with you B-man? You c- Surprise B-man meet Mr. Hammer"
Batman according tothe lore
Bruh, It wasn't any original discovery honestly. I've casually used this move on brutes dozens of time in riddler challenges. ☠️☠️
The futurist gentleman! The futurist is here! He sees all, he knows what’s best for you.
This was my favorite thing to do back in the day! Felt so effective

This is basically the only time the batswarm was useful
Yeah
Super lore accurate
just amazing, bro!
Brutal and witty awesome way
Beo i remember doing this as 11yr old. I love this game, even spamming the shit outta atack is fun
the game: wait, thats illegal! heheheh
Still prefered the fighting mechanics and graphics of AC over AK....
AC feeling is much more solid fights than AK IMO
I got stuck, so i just kept on shooting electrical charges at everyone that approached until they were all one shot
And here i was, making it a big deal, killing everyone first and them him
bro you violated him bad
yes
Woaaaaaah
A good reason to play it for the 53st time
And yes I will never get bored of this game
Me either

There is a skill I can't remember it but when you have 12 combo or above , the enemies movement will be a bit slow, it will help you
That is what the bat swarm does is for it stops the thugs from hitting you and it builds up your combo
When i played Arkham Knight after Origins(my first full complete Arkham game) i thoungt that move was ussless so that why they remove it. But when i played Arkham City that move was so OP
I also do that too although its not that easy
Ah yes why didn’t I think of that before. It’s so simple but yet so effective ❤
Thank you
Thank you for tutorial, I will now go eat a hotdog
its been 8 days, how was the hotdog and what happened after?
@@calvinsFuntimeBounceHouse I ate it
@@Hvot. and then what will happen later? will it come out the same shape?
@@calvinsFuntimeBounceHouse 100%. I will then eat another hotdog.
@@Hvot. hopefully it will be a new hotdog. with some relish.
He’s just an easy boss to beat all around 😂
I always said : Bat Swarm is OP
works for every character suprisingly
I don't remember the bat swarm ability. Cant remember if it was introduced or something we unlocked in the skill tree
You have to unlock it in the skill tree
@@nikozanoyblequy4636 gotcha that's what it was. Thanks!
Pᴜɴʏ ʜᴀᴍᴍᴇʀ .
Tbh I was doing this on release in 2011
Just start with beating him up.
I use him as a fast combo builder to then take down the rest lol
Man.
Man I’ve been doing this for years
based and combopilled :)
Same here
Alwayd hated this part
*XBOX 360 is amazing!* ⭐️
Wait…you haven’t been doing that all this time?
That's the most revolting thing I have ever seen
I always doing like 30 shots at a time on the dude so I ways try to save him for last
"Ummm actually, that's one of the Mr. Abrahmovics', not Mr Hammer 🤓🤓🤓"
Damn...🤯
Every way is an easy way
Most replayable game is Arkham Knight but this game's the best!
i find arkham origins is a great alternative to knight, has the same replay stuff, infinite guys to beat up, big time upgrades :) only 20gb on pc

Been doing this for years
Oh I’ve done this before
NO-
Do youse all one better try the speedrun strat for this.
It’s called Mr Hammer skip it’s just a simple standing storage exploit.
I don't know how to do the skip
@@dqrkangle search youtube for batman ac mr hammer skip it’ll be there
What's it like living in 1941?
Was that mini boss fight hard?
Not really if you know what you are doing
