davidmerrell Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Catwomans combat. My god, she is absolutely worthless when comfronted by 2-3 dudes with guns. Batman has a few tools at his disposal to take care of a situation like this but not her. Minor complaint though. Oh and I guess I have one other complaint that is a bit more annoying. Why is it that the grapling is pretty off on this game? Sometimes its spot on but at least half the time the RB indicator does not appear where you are actually aiming. Also alot of the time I will be trying to grapel the ledge in front of me and instead he grapels something to the left, right, behind, or something even a mile away. lol I wouldnt mind seeing a patch that makes grappling a bit more accurate. Awesome game though. I cant stop playing. My favorite game of the year so far by far. These riddler challenges are just awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drucifer82 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Catwoman was designed entirely for stealth. She doesn't have the strength and gadgetry that Batman has. You can't use brute strength with her. She takes some getting used to but works just fine, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty130 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Cat Woman is fine. Period. (Unless you're one of those getting the corrupt DLC message). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidmerrell Posted October 22, 2011 Author Share Posted October 22, 2011 well Im getting a little more used to the combat but the gun dudes are just a pain in the ass with her. As far as regular combat I think she is a little better, because of her speed. I may actually get my 50 hit combo with her when I get around to her. She does not get around worth a shit though. If she could glide it would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKV Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 (edited) Catwoman is built for SPEED and stealth, [strength really doesn't matter] as she takes on hordes of people with her Quick Disarm/Caltrops/Bola functions. I got some 87+ hit combo with her in the story. [i don't like her grapple/wall climb timing]. I agree about the grappling, ArkAsylum had that issue as well. Although my problem with the grappling in this game, was that it made me fall through the levels/buildings a number of times.

Purge Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 If I'm going to get overrun with catwoman, I always use her whip and she pretty much floors everyone. If there's a small amount of thugs, like three or four then the whip is so quick I can knock them all down in a second and ground takedown them one by one.

2girls1up Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Cat Woman is fine. Period. (Unless you're one of those getting the corrupt DLC message). I take it you have three medals on Hell's Gate extreme with her then? That puts you in the top 50 of XBL. Her inability to break weapons or rodeo on titans makes her not fun at all on some maps. By round 4 of Hell's Gate extreme every goon will have a baton or riot shield and thus be uncounterable and unstrikable from front. She may be "fine" in some regards but she is woefully imbalanced overall. Without a grapnel or smoke she's got no out on Predator sequences. Of course that's all trial and error so who cares but yeah, more imbalance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MASS DOMINATION Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I actually find catwoman to be the better fighter. Whenever I play as hear and continually get combos of 50 or more that I just can't do with batman. batman is just a little slower so he can dodge some attacks quick enough. However his gadgets make him more versatile against dudes with guns and his grapple n glide combo allows you to enter and escape situations very fast.

PoMoGub Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 My only issue with her is moving around, especially trying to escape. Good thing her run speed is so good or she'd be swiss cheese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beating up pockets of thugs in the storyline is no way to judge. Fire up the Combat Master campaign and then try to say that Catwoman is the better fighter. She's terrible.

If people think she is better than batman that is their opinion obviously but that dont make it right. Batmans gadgets make him the superior combatant by far. Dealing with alot of enemies with weapons and shields is a pain in the ass with catwoman. I wish Batman had her speed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2girls1up Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 It's not even the gadgets so much as the fore-mentioned lack of the weapon break instant and the fact that she can't rodeo on a titan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She can run circles around Titans too just so you know. Sounds like someone's getting angry at Hell's Gate Extreme, lol.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilWays Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I only have two minor gripes about this game: 1) the game can't seem to save my 3D video settings and 2) when a download for anything completes from XBL marketplace, it boots you to the Press Start screen since it assumes it's a DLC for the game (was downloading two videos), and because of that complaint #1 kicks in every time (yes, I have to set my 3D options over and over every time I end up back at the Press Start screen).

sleepydumbdude Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 My only minor complaint is thinking batman should toss those weapons he takes out of reach instead of laying on the ground to let them pick them back up by someone else. Wish you could kick them a bit out of reach or sticky them to the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shes quick and you have to use that to your advantage too. Also evading is smart with her, you may lose a combo but you can easily re-start one.

Terransheep Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 yah i'm here searching for catwoman's strategy for taking down shield/stun rod/ armor guys together... they are really annoying when they all come at the same time. I found caltraps works, but it's not a very good thing to keep my combo up... anyone got hint? I like to play as catwoman coz she's hot, and plus she's harder to play as compared to batman, and if u get a higher score, u're definetly the skilled player. Batman's got too many stuff making him easy to play with... I like challenges~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the predator challenges that are nigh impossible. Go try extreme top of the world, you may punch a hole in something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodswan Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I do find her hard in combat. I can understand that she is a thief and built entirely for stealth unlike batman but man it was annoying enough in campaign and I'm dreading some of the combat challenges.
