Moving Bodies

[bongalak]

What do you guys think about Batman being able to move bodies? Like being able hide them so the sight of them won't alert the thugs, or move them to certain locations to lure other thugs in?

I'd personally like to have this in the game. It would add much versatility to stealth gameplay.

Ugh...for the millionth time. Batman is NOT Sam Fisher.

I like the idea. I mean who cares Sam Fisher is not the only one capable of moving a body, snake from metal gear is to. I would like to see Batman hold someone like he did in the Dark knight movie when he made a escape threw the window when the Airplane flew over head. Also in the Animated series he did something like that.

I want this so bad.

Maybe the only way that I'd be up for this idea, is if you could tie enemies up in strangely obvious places. The animated series always shows Batman tying up his enemies and leaving them hung out to dry in some place that really freaks people out. So if you could put enemies in other places hanging from ceilings or ledges, I'd be all for that, but the idea of just moving the bodies around; just seems like it would be a lot of work to try and be stealthy about it. It works for Splinter Cell and MGS because those guys *have* to hide the bodies because they don't want to be found. Batman is kinda the opposite, he wants his enemies to know he's around, and he doesn't mind having his enemies run in fear all the time.

Well he's in Arkham City already... what other alarms could go off?

Moving a body so people don't find it and prematurely freak out isn't exactly an extreme case.

That is why Batman is quick enough so that no one will find the body

The only way people won't find a body is if its hidden... Its not about Batman being fast enough to take someone down without being noticed. Its about what happens after Batman takes them down. If their bodies are just left lying there it tells the other thugs that Batman is there, which might not always be desired.

It can be a nice add on like someone said before where you can put them in a spot where everyone can see, which is shown in both the cartoons and movies. I don't think it's needed, but it WOULD be pretty nice to have it.

I'm not fussed about dragging bodies. If it's just there as another ability that you don't have to use then I guess I wouldn't mind, but if at points during the story I HAD to drag bodies around, I just couldn't be bothered.

That's a good point. If it's a gimmick added in for extra stealth capabilities, fine. If I'm forced to use it to complete the game that would be a drag.

Nice pun.

I would like the option of stealth take downs that leave an enemy conscious.For example,you come upon a lone enemy with a gun,Batman comes up behind him,dislocates both shoulders and grabs him by the legs.Then drags him,screaming,into the darkness.This not only hides the body,but threatens other enemies in the vicinity,causing tension and carelessness.

Thats not very stealthy

@TrailerHunter When I said stealth,I was referring to sneaking up on that specific enemy.

Batman doesnt sneak around, he hunts his prey ergo invisible predator

Batman doesn't sneak or hunt - he is everywhere at once.

"Damn it! I can punch Bane in the face, survive getting tossed around by Titan monsters, Titan Joker, and shot at, and can PUNCH THROUGH WALLS, but I can't move these unconscious thugs. Did Joker put lead in them or something? Wait... I can pick them up and throw them in combat.. but can't drag them? WHAT MADNESS IS THIS?!?! I'M BATMAN!!"
