When i was a kid, and first played these games i actually never figured out about takedowns, the combo takedowns, or the ground takedowns, so i literally just wailed on enemies and patiently waited for them to get back up before taking them out. After discovering how braindead i was, the combat has never seemed better.
i did the exact same thing!! looking back it’s so funny and sometimes i’ll still play that way and it’s kinda fun watching them slowly get up then just one hitting them
@@austinramsdail8528 like for exmaple did you know distracting mr freeze would stop him from freezing stuff WHICH MEANT YOU COULD USE IDK A LEDGE TWICE
Did you know that in Arkham Knight, you can pick enemies up after they fall down to the ground to start a beat down combo which means that you don’t have to use your fists while they’re on the ground? It’s RT + B
Something I accidentally found during the Mr. Freeze fight was that you can actually still drop attack from a frozen rail as long as you time it perfectly and he's in the exact right position, coming in or out from a door. It won't give you the prompt, you'll just fall on top of him and it'll count. So if you're good at manipulating his path, that was another option.
You're a genius for coming up with that Mr Freeze strat. You *can* pull enemies off ledges with the Batclaw in Arkham Knight, but only if there's no barrier in the way. I did it in The Long Halloween, Part 2. You can get a *fourth* zap with the drone by disrupting the controller tablet, which is enough to almost completely clear some maps in one fell swoop
I love the 4:3 aspect ratio you have for Arkham Aslyum, gives it a more classic horror game feel, I'm def gonna play it in that format once I get new gen remaster
idk why but just being able to just beat the shit out of a downed thug in Arkham Knight was like the best improvement in combat. it's just so funny seeing you be so brutal to them.
Hey did you know you can entirely skip the fight at 54:27 You can just immediately Open the door as the enemies dont see you in that area for some reason
Yep. You can sneakily hop down and open the gate, then use the Batmobile to take them out. However, there is a little room that they run back into, so it's not complete cheese.
Personally, I never silent take down the guys wall saving Commissioner Gordon. I always worry that they’re going to see one of their knocked out buddies and alert Harley.
Nice video, man 💜 I never watched these challenges of yours specifically so this compilation was great, it was very entertaining!! And I admire your effort ☺congrats
I've been here since around maybe 500 or 1k subs and it's really great to see the jump to 30k! I hope you continue to grow and produce great content like this!
Knerd, in Arkham Knight, something similar happened. I was on knightmare, and I glide kicked someone near the middle of a medium-sized building. They got sent off the edge and there was no body to be seen. But he isnt dead, right? Right?
Here in Brasil crime is so high that, in the most dangerous cities, people joke that if someone is shot on the beach they just "drowned" so the police has one less crime to investigate, so, if you don't see the body after knocking him out the building, he just ran away
In asylum you can sprint kick the insane inmates and if you time it right they'll die from fall damage its probably a glitch but seeing them ragdoll was some of the most fun i had in that game
Definitely hilarious that that _one_ random Arkham City thug is so takedown-necessary that Batman him-fucking-self needs to learn how to phase through solid matter in order to kick his ass without a takedown lol. Also, it's definitely stupid how the disruptor doesn't work in that room-the only reason I can think of for the game to do something like that is because it's in a tutorial section and it needs you to actually learn what's being taught, but the only way to get the disruptor that early is if you've already completed the entire game before!!
try 'No Upgrade Challenge' on Hard Mode difficulty in Batman: Arkham Asylum, and it was incredibly challenging. I initially wanted to make a video of my attempt, but unfortunately, I lost the recording.
While I don't think we need to count the tutorials since a lot of games force you to do certain things regardless of what you do, it is still very cool seeing you try to work around things as best you can. The Freeze solution was just great.
I'm 50/50 on the glitch. Technically you can glitch into the sewers and go to the end of the game. Meaning you don't need to fight and bosses or spend an hour on Mr Freeze...
Fun fact: at 54:28 you don't have to fight these guys AT ALL! I always just drop down from the ledge, open the fuse box right to your left (the group hasn't you noticed till this point), and hop straight into the Batmobile the moment the door opens for it. After that, these guys just scramble to hide inside that little house behind them and don't dare come out 'cause you're in the Batmobile, allowing you to simply proceed into the next room ^-^b
58:40 for the minigunner you can use the smoke and then strike him, since there isn't ANY nightvision thugs in Knight, smoke are extremely op and you can gain so much more time like, also yes the smoke duration IS long enough to actually take out the minigunner by striking.
I managed to get all 15 levels in each challenge during a single run of Origins. Other than one specific challenge that I remember doing in the bank, but don't remember the details of, all of it was pretty easy too.
In Arkham city you can repeat drop attack many times if you time yourself right. But you have to have an upgrade to walk on the line from line launher.
That unfortunately doesn't work on Mr. Freeze. After you use the line launcher drop attack on him once, he'll adapt and be able to instantly detect you if you try line launching again
@@Knerd-YT that's interesting. Maybe I got it wrong since it's been a while since I played or Return to arkham is weird. Thanks for clarification here anyway
Can't you use the reverse baterang (the rc baterang upgrade that is meant for taking out hostage takers) in the tutorial predator room for Arkham City?
It's so funny how you say you beat enemies until they aren't breathing because we all know these things kill them but Batman just doesn't want to accept it
funny thing is I played arkham knight without takedowns that were not stealth. until I came to the joker part in the end of arkham knight story. I was wondering why its impossible to kill them and spent like an hour before realizing I missed a game mechanic lol.
If you are playing Arkham city new game +, doesn't that mean that you HAD to ALWAYS do the tutorial takedowns and then play the entire game until you unlock new game +?
in asylum he says "why do you just stand their while getting shot instead of moving forword..." bro what if you were in his position, YOU WOULD DIE!!! but it is batman so he eats that
Given that there's a section in the main campaign of B:AK where it *forces* you to use a Fear Multi Takedown, I didn't think you'd be able to do it 100% no takedowns, but I am surprised it was so relatively few
You likely won't see this before this video is nearly 3 months old but the reason the minigunner wasn't around the corner when you threw the remote batarang is because his model is stored out of bounds until a trigger is activated for him to be called into the scene (when you try to run down the hallway). This happens in pretty much every 3D video game.
In arkham city I pretty sure you can do it without being in New game plus and with no takedowns just be using a speed run strategy at the church before they go and hide
*HUGE* tip, please up the gain on your audio if you're not comfortable speaking too loudly. And make sure you go over your script enough times so you can say at least most of it without needing to actually read it. The jokes were clever but they lose impact when you can tell they're written out. A good way to avoid doing this would be to list out everything you need to mention, but not write out exactly what you need to say. If you're not comfortable speaking off the top of your head, just practice practice practice until it doesnt sound robotic. At some point you wont need to do it anymore and that'll let you focus more on your writing.

They did that at least once, at 57:05. Dunno if it makes it any faster, though 🤔

You do know that if Thugs are close to ledges or if they're climbing a ladder, they can knocked out by a Batarang?
13:38 for some reason hes just there on ng+ despite adding no extra challenge
Beating Mr. Freeze like that is amazing. It must have felt so satisfying when you finally pulled it off. Great video.
One of the best arkham yters out there been watching your vids for 2 years now and they never fail to entertain

Gosh dang, man. I never realized how many required takedowns there are in Arkham Knight. It's a lot. This was interesting to watch. W
The goat returns for another banger! You dropped this btw 👑
2:22 press LT/L2 to quick fire batarang
In asylum you can sprint kick the insane inmates and if you time it right they'll die from fall damage its probably a glitch but seeing them ragdoll was some of the most fun i had in that game
Was just gonna comment this! One of my favorite glitches in the series! I use it every time I play Asylum
imagine if he did all side missions too 💀
This was super interesting and entertaining, I loved how u used the batclaw lol

For the first predator encounter in Arkham City would the freeze cluster grenade also help takeout the enemies?
He said you are unable to use any other gadgets except Sonic Batarang during tutorial sections.
I'm 50/50 on the glitch. Technically you can glitch into the sewers and go to the end of the game. Meaning you don't need to fight and bosses or spend an hour on Mr Freeze...

The scarecrow takedown isn’t really a takedown. If anything he takes you down
This is the best video I have seen in the last time
PS: You are one of my favorite RUclipsr
41:12 Henchmen T-pose. He was asserting dominance to make the challenge harder.

Arkham Origins combat really does forces you to get good at it.
You seen like a smart guy
i love your vids and your the reason i still play the arkham games. :D
8:06 when me and my father played this part. we didn’t know we can just takedown with out using the gun 😂
57:10 is the funniest counter for me, need to get back to Arkham knight to check it out.
Your vids are so underated
I’ve beaten all the Arkham games without upgrades (except Arkham origins but it’s because the game broke and I didn’t feel like starting over)
My hands were genuinely too small when first playing Arkham asylum to press two buttons at once so I just never did takedowns back in the day
I love your channel great job ❤
Great video dude!
I did it aswell, the other day I was playing AC in new game plus and I beated Mr.Freeze without using takedowns
I managed to get all 15 levels in each challenge during a single run of Origins. Other than one specific challenge that I remember doing in the bank, but don't remember the details of, all of it was pretty easy too.
I’ve played this game like 20 times and I have never seen that animation to take out mr hammer
Thanks!
In Arkham city you can repeat drop attack many times if you time yourself right. But you have to have an upgrade to walk on the line from line launher.
That unfortunately doesn't work on Mr. Freeze. After you use the line launcher drop attack on him once, he'll adapt and be able to instantly detect you if you try line launching again
@@Knerd-YT that's interesting.
Maybe I got it wrong since it's been a while since I played or Return to arkham is weird.
Thanks for clarification here anyway
I feel like he should’ve just counted every fear takedown chain as one take down in knight it would’ve made it a bit better.
You shouldve grabbed the Freeze Blast. Wouldve made bundled enemies in predator
"Takedown" does not even sound like a real word anymore lol
Yes I did multiple times with every game. And I also beat them multiple times with perfect stealth.
Can't you use the reverse baterang (the rc baterang upgrade that is meant for taking out hostage takers) in the tutorial predator room for Arkham City?
Game probably stopped him from doing so.
So I guess that Gotham Knights video you were talking about in Community Notes is dead in the water? Lmao 😂😂😂
I dare you to do a challenge:YOU MAY NOT RUN IN ANY ARKHAM GAME
13:45 yea this is only on NG+ for some reason haha

he plays asylum 4:3 because the heads are bigger, easier headshots
If you are playing Arkham city new game +, doesn't that mean that you HAD to ALWAYS do the tutorial takedowns and then play the entire game until you unlock new game +?
I would really appreciate if you totalled how many takedowns in the series. Other than that great videos.
Your a legend man ❤
Batman doesn't kill...
But he pulls people over ledges letting them fall down head first 2 stories
The thug behind the window at 13:48 is there only in NG+, not on normal story mode
I appreciate being able to get a break from hearing people using stupid AI Voices for shorts! Keep up the great work ❤️
This guy has a lot of time on his hands
i found out that if you have the voice thing you can take down the minigun guy pretty easy is the stag part of the game
Is there a lore reason man doesn't do takedowns? Is he stupid?
WHAT'S THE BENEATH THE SURFACE SIDEMISSION!
in asylum he says "why do you just stand their while getting shot instead of moving forword..." bro what if you were in his position, YOU WOULD DIE!!! but it is batman so he eats that
13:00 I think you can use reverse batarangs (R1 remote batarangs, on ps4/5) on hostage taking thugs and that one is unlimited
I have never saw any Arkham game be played in 4:3.
At 33:00 you can see him do a ground ground takedown.
HEY KNERD I LOVE YOU

Do side missions without any takedowns
In Arkham Knight I'm max armor upgraded so i can just beat the hell out of em
Try to be every side mission without using irritate down
Don’t you have to get the explosive gel takedown to knock enemies? So you broke the rules right? Please answer my question I love your content
Knredd you need to make a vid about this in Arkham knight you can see the batwing scanning
in arkham origins new game plus you just don't get the gadgets from the story early period.
1:02:19 This is how I found out you can use the line launcher from corner cover

You don't need to use either of those, you can just punch him until he's knocked out
