Mad hatter wonderland bug
I'm at the part where you have to destroy to lanterns with the batarangs in order to proceed, to do which you must aim them but it's locking me in this stupid 2d perspective and the aiming reticle won't show. Anyone run into this?

this is not a bug you just have to use your head a little bit

you have to be on the electric floor area to be able to aim, that part is working as intended.

Not when its giving me a prompt telling me to use mouse 2 to aim at it.

I had issues with the teacup..plate..boat..thing part, the dish kept clipping into the floor and sticking out into the water like a diving board, i had to run into the water about 15 times until it finally popped out of the floor and into the water..

it's a simple puzzle a 5 year old could solve
you have to go closer to be able to lock on your aim,but there's an electric floor
the game doesn't prompt you to use mouse 2 right there and right now,the game just prompts you that you have to destroy the lanterns to get through and you destroy them by locking on with mouse 2

You dug this thread out of what 5-6 pages to write that? Sorry my performance on your batman iq test wasn't up to your expectations. What ever will I do with my life now?

Considering you can lock onto those relay boxes from much much further away, or even quick fire and hit them from 5x the distance in the hatter area, it's actually more counter intuitive than anything else. Not to mention the fixed camera angle is another issue in play here.

are you kidding me?you have to destroy the lanterns,you can't lock on them from where you are standing,you see an electric floor that's periodicaly turns on and off - what do you do?It's pretty obvious what is expected of you
I think it was a pretty easy puzzle,hell it was so simple I wouldn't even call it a puzzle

No. This is one small instance in the whole game where the batarang does not function the same. I took pause and asked myself why it wasnt locking onto anything before I realized that I had to get closer. Hell I jumped off the ledge a couple times before I realized that that was where the lanterns were because they blend in.

Normally, you pull out a batarang and aim, right? You can't really aim here. So taking away half the functionality and then expecting a new mechanic (with no real explanation, I might add) to be picked up immediately by everyone playing isn't normal. I've played through the other arkham games a couple times each, so I am very familiar with the batarang mechanic. I assumed you could hit them from between the electric plates, and not have to stand on one of them.

Just because you got it right away (which I doubt) does not mean it was something that was going to be apparent to everyone.

believe it or not, I got it right away
also,in Asylum you had to do the same with the batclaw in one of Scarecrows sequences,it was the same 2D part as Wonderland,you had to pull some crates or something,but it was the same mechanic where free aiming was disabled

I did, nothing works :p

you have to tap quite alot until it starts moving. I thought its a bug too at first.

Nope, I just found out that you have to hold the button down, not tap it

Crossing the stream bug: I had troubel because the tea plate would not move. I reloaded and you have to stand exactly in the middle of the tea cup for ti to be able to move across the stream with the batclaw
