I can't get too excited for any Mr. Freeze that won't be voiced by the late and great Michael Ansara.

DLC? Would be nice if they fixed the bugs already but hey. My final fight with Bane is still broken, you can't hurt him and he can't hurt you.

Anyway I do like the game and the DLC is probably going to be decent, just the ludicrous amount of bugs on launch overshadow any future content.

Though the 1v100 challenge map was a really cool idea. Add a 1v200 and it would be even better. 1v1000 anyone?

Just played through Arkham Origins last week, and no bugs encountered.
OT: Any release date yet? I'll probably have to wait until february anyway, but it would be nice to know.

If you would look through the Steam updates you would see a huge backlog of updates and bug fixes all spaced out from launch til the near present. But yeah I guess if you did play it last week there would be no bugs, good job waiting for the Steam sale.

If they can't make the base game stable on launch (I have to stress this, just because they fixed it later does not mean all should be forgiven) and take the absolute piss fixing it (sometimes alt-tabing out crashes the game, never a good sign) then how can I take the chance on the DLC not being horrendously broken too?

Oh come on, it's not definitively Mr. Freeze with this info, you say so right before claiming it's him. It could also be Killer Frost, Captain Cold, or any number of other DC ice themed villains. Just assuming Victor Fries did it because of some ice is incredibly discriminatory and should not be tolerated.

Huh. I feel bad I never knew his name. Wonder what else he did?

...damn, he kept busy.


OT - To be fair, his replacement is the legendary Maurice LaMarche.

Captain Cold (Flash) and Killer Frost (Firestorm) aren't really part of Batman's rogues gallery though. Mr. Freeze is much more likely just based on that fact alone.

The basic premise shouldn't be too hard to guess from here.

Spoiler: Oh fine, I'll cover it up...

GothCorp guy Ferris Boyle gets a humanitarian award, Mr. Freeze isn't impressed that he gets a 'good guy' medal seeing as Boyle screwed Freeze and his wife over, nearly killing them both, and naturally comes to kick some ass.

That said, they could easily add something new in.

Spoiler: I'll cover this up too just because...

Like perhaps Batman needs to make some sort of choice between stopping Freeze from doing his thing, or stopping Boyle from shutting down the cyro... whatever Freeze's wife is in.

 

[Johnny Novgorod]

Loved the Freeze fight in Arkham City, I hope they at least keep the DLC on that level of awesome.

 

[azurine]

I really hope Batman thwarts Mr.Freeze by smashing his cryo-suit's helmet open with a can of chicken soup.
Please.

No mention of the massive diamond in the award statuette?

Actually, why not? At the very least it would help fund the research for keeping his wife alive.

-------->Joke

Hell, it could be a Kryptonian, they have frost breath. I suppose that also adds Planet Master to the list, maybe Weather Wizard, The Parasite, I could go on with things that it isn't that I would find funny if it was. I know it's definitely Freeze, but that's neither here nor there, and a curve ball from the developers would have been COOL.

*facepalm* I should have recognized that it was a joke. My bad lol.

Mixed Opinions on this, while I'm glad to see we might actually get some GOOD DLC for a game, Multiplayer is still broken for several people and the game is far from fixed, would rather see more work put into fixing the game...

 

[TKretts3]

He better be voiced by Arnold Schwarzenegger. No one else will do.

 

[Therumancer]

Not playing "Origins" yet but honest I was kind of hoping the DLC was going to feature "The Court Of Owls" when I first heard it. Don't know why.
