So I've been playing Batman: Arkham Origins for a few days now and really like it. I am however, finding odd glitches and bugs in the game. The kind that stop the entire experience completely and force me to restart my 360.

Just wanted to check and see if anyone else was or had this issue, or maybe if I had a bad copy.

There was a bug for me on 360 involving an elevator in the sewer area in which Batman would fall through the floor as the elevator was going up, leading to him landing in the water, climbing out onto nothing, then going into a permanent free-fall beneath the map.

And another bug involving that same elevator occurred towards the end of the game when I was backtracking to pick up some Enigma packets that I could get now that I had the proper gadget to get them. I go into the sewers, go down that elevator, proceed through the sewers, pick up the packets, start going back the way I came, and find that the elevator had apparently gone back up the shaft, making it impossible for me to get back up there. I reloaded the checkpoint a couple times, didn't work. I was about ready to rage-quit (possibly the entire game for good) under the assumption that I was officially stuck in the sewers and couldn't get back out, thus forcing me to restart the game (which would be absolutely moronic considering that you HAVE to go back into the sewers in order to get some packets that you wouldn't have access to on your first trip into the sewers).

Luckily, though, I backtracked all the way back to where you enter the sewers on your first trip to the sewers. Despite the fact that my map showed it as a dead-end with no exit, there was a latter to a sewer-lid that I could climb up and out of, thus freeing me from the stinky prison.

Other than that there's been some occasions where the combat would glitch up and the counter button wouldn't work, or Batman wouldn't start a beat-down after cape-stunning someone (and instead just do a regular punch to knock the stunned guy down and then, since I keep pressing x with the assumption that I just started a beat-down, he misses on the 2nd punch and breaks my combo).

Yeah, I've been experiencing glitches at well. Fortunately, most of them have the game freezing up every once in a while, forcing me to reboot the Xbox. Irritating, but not world-ending, and I usually take it as the Xbox staring at me disapprovingly while saying, "Don't you have homework to do?"

I've only really encountered two in-game glitches, neither of which were game-breaking. The first was on the Final Offer, Penguin's boat. I was combing through it, looking for Enigma blackmail packs and really wishing the devs had thought to re-populate the place after the initial encounter, when I found one in a vent above a corridor. Mysteriously, Batman refused to acknowledge that I might want to climb up into the vent, resolutely not giving me the automatic grapple option and also not allowing me to manually fire the batclaw into the vent. Quite irritating, but I shrugged and moved on. At least it didn't happen during Riddler's 'trap' in that one signal tower.

The other one was pretty simple: all the quickfire gadget controls completely stopped working for a while. Mystifying, but the worst it did was wreck my combo count for a couple of street fights before they just a mysteriously came back.

But I'm only about halfway through the game. Plenty of time for some truly monstrous bug to appear and eat my game.
