@MrOde - Thats a good point, I will discuss that as an option with the lostics guys for delivery upgrades.

I must say most times we dont really have an issue with Courier Guy being on time, but in outlying areas it can be rough 3-4 days but, we often try choose the service that matches the area and even ship some product a bit earlier so it arrives on launch day for thos clients where we can

@IkariX it's a good thing IDGAF about your opinion then, lol
It may surprise you to know that other people have different experiences to your own. But I know that concept may be too far out of reach for you.

As for Nexus, I don't know why you ban people that have legitimate points relating to polls you create. None of what I said was out of line, but clearly you prefer sycophants like IkariX on the forum instead of customers who have legitimate criticism of your logistics (which you make us pay for).

Nexushub has the best customer service no doubt. I have had other retailers that don't care about restocking on sold out titles but yet nexushub helped get me townfall steelbooks and control resonant steelbooks even though they were sold out. No one cares about delivery fees as long as you get the physical game in good condition like I have, especially steelbooks which can be fragile.

@DarkWingDuck

I'm going to call [censored] on your post. I've been buying from Nexus since the AnimeWorx days from about 2008. I have literally never ever had bad customer service from NexusHub. So you are being disingenuous. I don't think you appreciate the great lengths they go to, to get these games for us. But enjoy your other retailers and their[censored] service.

MrOde very good point! I'd pay extra for express overnight shipping.

HaseoVII SAME regarding FF7Rebirth (best believe I preordered Revelation though )

I am such a huge fan of Nexus Hub - no one else in SA imports the niche titles - I used to need to get my stuff from Amazon Japan/US

My backlog is so big I don't care how late I get my orders lol haven't even played FF7 Rebirth or even Stellar Blade yet, but that's just me.

I'd actually go even further and say do standard free shipping for all orders above R1000 but allow an express shipping option/add on for those that want to pay extra. I would gladly pay extra to get whatever I ordered the day after I order it.

@Magius & CRAVINHO
Thanks guys!
I'm 70% complete with the game, also around 70% with the story.
Just wanted to make sure before I go all the way with the story.
Deathstrokes in the game!!!! AWESOME, was hoping he would show up!
NOOOO!! Not more tanks, I thought I was done with them

I'm about 40% done with the game so far I'm enjoying it but doubt I'll go for the 100% ending I'll probably just watch that ending on the web once I completed the game. @kf500 apparently you can still collect the stuff and do side missions once you completed the story but not sure if it's true.


That's what I did, fighting MORE Cobra tanks to get Deathstroke irritated me and then after watching the Knightfall cutscenes I thought that it was a cheek asking the player to do all that s*** to get a pretty short ending with no real impact.


I doubt the fans will agree, but the Batmobile broke this game I'm not totally unhappy with this game though, it showed me that I'm not keen on vehicle battles, thus saving me money as I'll skip Mad Max now

This game earned me my first PS4 platinum trophy. The Deathstroke pay off was a complete cheat after the build up. I wouldn't say that the Batmobile "broke" the game, but the fact that so much of the game was based on forced usage of the thing, it essentially broke what the Arkham games were about - Giving the player a certain amount of choice as to how they would approach the situation.

That said the story, music and emotive content in the game were incredible and I can't fault the game on much outside of the forced Batmobile gameplay.

I'm loving the game!!!
The Batmobile was an awesome addition, it can do SO much. Loved doing the Riddler challenges with it. There were just enough races & puzzles, before I got sick of them. BUT, they added WAY too many of those tank/drone battles!
That gets old real fast!!

I approached the side quests in this game the same way I do for most open world games, in a round robin manner. I'd look for some fire fighters, complete a story chunk, do a Riddler mission, look for an arsonist, etc.

That way I didn't get tired of doing any one thing too much, like in an Assassin's Creed game with it's limited mission variety. And after doing that I came the conclusion that the game is split about 50%. 50% for Batmobile, 50% for traditional Batman stuff.

Of course if you don't enjoy doing one aspect of something, then yeah, it will feel like there's more of that than of anything else. At least that's what it felt like to me.

Of course the Batmobile stuff does take long to do because a) it's not a precision instrument, and b) it takes very long to complete any battle. So it feels longer than it really is. Like I struggled with the Riddler races for instance.

Since I also take my time doing the Batman stuff, especially the predator style sections, it felt very long to me doing those things. The last checkpoint predator mission for instance took me an hour plus to do just to take out 7 guys. But that's because I aim to do those with ninja precision.

Was some of the stuff you got for doing it a little underwhelming? Sure, Deathstroke turned out to be pretty lame, but at the smae time Batman's the ultimate badass so. . .

At the end of the day, it's still a fantastic game and as long as you enjoyed it more than been annoyed by it, that's what matters.

@DG I play open world games the same way.
Do some story, then some side quests & hunt down some Riddler trophies.
But those mines in the road, where you got to download a virus. & then hold off a bunch of tanks, before you can destroy it. & by a bunch of tanks, I mean 30 odd!!! That was just over kill.
Other wise I have no other problems with the game. Boss battles could have been better though.

The last good Batman game to me was, Arkham City. Origins was a cheap spinoff of AC but still a little but of fun. Arkham Knight as you said, forced the Batmoblie on players, and it became a bit of over kill, I traded the game before even completing it, think I had about 2 hrs of story left, but the sickening feeling I got when I just saw the Batmoblie forced me to trade it.

I have to add though, I'm not easily pleased by SP games these days. Witcher 3, Batman AK, Destiny etc. I play them for around 8 - 10 hours and then I can't anymore. Don't known what it is....

Don't get excited, his battle is the same as the cloud tank battle, very much a reskin of an old mission. You want a good Deathstroke mission? Play Origins he's the first boss and quite tough. Oh yeah to get to Deathstroke you have to complete all the APC and the checkpoint missions, freaking tedious!

The Batmobile did break the game for me, I would rather have had more missions with Nightwing or Robin than Batmobile ones.

I have not done the cloud tank battle yet.
I did play Origins, that game was a bit disappointing. But the boss fights including the Deathstroke one, were very cool!
Almost done with the checkpoint missions, & done with the APC missions.

Did some more story missions last night. & guess what...MORE TANKS
I LOVE everything about the Batmobile, but the destroying of the tanks puts the Batmobile in a bad light.
& playing peekaboo with those damn Cobra tanks

I think if you look at the complete series of Batman games as a whole, then the amount of Tank play is fine... I was okay with it... Plus the Batmobile is so awesome!

I did find getting 100% completion a lot easier than the other Batman games...

Anyone having trouble with the PS Store? For me it takes very long to load on the PS4 and doesn't open. Tried to add some DLC via the PS Store on PC and when trying to check out it gives an error......
