Bat Fortress 2

[ríomhaire]

Well this is interesting.

Think of it as Team Fortress meets Batman: Arkham Asylum.

[...]

I had a chance to check out the multiplayer deathmatch which put me in the shoes of a Bat armed with an assault rifle, shotgun, pipebombs and grappling hook.

The game will include a number of classes, as well as body types. Body types, which include speedy, nimble and tough, impact your characters speed, toughness and strength.

Players can also pick through an assortment of weapons to choose their primary and back up guns, a gadget and a support item.

While many of the weapons looked pretty straightforward, there were also some home made weapons like a PVC-and-fireworks rocket launcher nicknamed "The Thunder Dragon" and a grappling gun that used a crank to pull you up to ledges.

Characters' costumes can also be customized, changing everything from the cowl, legs, hands and feet, to the logo and voice options.

Very interested to see some screenshots.

Batman with guns is heresy

you're missing out on a pretty important detail

"The notion of a multiplayer Batman was often nixed by the publisher, we were told during a morning briefing in Santa Monica, because the theory was that everyone playing a mulitplayer Batman game would want to play as the cowled hero. So in Gotham City Impostors no one plays as him.

players will play on either the side of the Batz or the Jokerz as they game their way through a variety of online only, multiplayer only modes."

so you dont play as batman/joker so you can have all the guns you want

Heh, RPS tells it slightly differently: in an MP Batman game everyone either wants to be Batman or the Joker, so the devs decided everyone should be.
