Riddler informants no longer work.
I finished the story. Nice ending, best part of the whole game, except that I beat the last guy (you know who if you played it) so badly he should have been dead 10 times over but he left without hardly any marks on him.
But now the story is finished, I can't interrogate the riddler informants.
Either they show on the map but facial recognition refuses to pick them up and I end up knocking everyone out, nobody surrenders. Or, I know how it is, surrenders, but no way to interrogate. I just stand next to him, he cowers, glowing green (as informants do :0), saying "I surrender".
Nothing. No icon to interrogate, can't do anything else with them.
Also, can't get the level up for beating predator encounter without using a takedown. Tried it like 5 times now, and nothing. Also the combo counter doesn't work against predator opponents, even though I disarmed them, and no yellow highlight or red highlight at 5 and 12 hits. Also, most of the armed thugs outdoors (and some indoors) can't be silently taken down, I have to beat them down.
Game is so broken, it's just silly.
It's not that it has bugs and bad design, it's how many different bugs and stupid design decisions. Like concussion grenade; had to fetch it to enter GCPD, never used it once except to try it, three HOURS later (when I finally remembered I had it), and realised it is less than useless. It does nothing, breaks your combo, and takes up a quickfire slot that should have been used for something more useful

i didn't even know there were informants in this game
Yes, to unlock the riddler extortion information locations.

i have the same problem. .

I actually have at least one missing informant. I've got no more informants on my map but i'm still coming across trophies which don't show up on the map that they're in.
I also have the same as Cormoran.
The informants do only give up info on the area you are in, right?
Because I have missing trophies in some areas with no informants left.
The whole riddler thing seems to be the most rushed aspect of the game, and has suffered greatly for it.
And STILL no patch, or even word on when a patch MIGHT arrive

I have the exact same problem any help?!

Don't Know what to say, just finished the game and the only informant that poped up was on the bridge. i did all the other BEFORE ending the games. and the one on the bridge was all alone.... and surrenred.
The problem isn't that they don't surrender. It's that you can't grab them when they do. There is no prompt, like "press Y to interrogate", how there usually is.
I found that sometimes it works now and sometimes it doesn't.
Same with silent takedowns. Sometimes the prompt for a silent takedown comes up, sometimes not.
But if it doesn't work, restarting the game helps.
If it doesn't work once, it won't work ever until you restart, is what I mean to say. Or at least that is how it has happened to me.
I could make a list of all the bugs and glitches in this game, but my fingers would die from the strain of typing that much
Had that problem too
Was gone after restarting the game.
Same here. But it comes back sometimes when I play.
If it works, it works. But after restarting the game to play again later it sometimes comes back again

I miss the days when Arkham games worked :(

That's odd, that never happened to me, got the whole Riddler thing done fairly quickly
If you got it done before the end of the story campaign, then you wouldn't have the problem. It only occurs after the end of the story, when you are in free-roam to finish the last of your side missions

I didn't get it done before the end of the story, i did it after.
Then you were lucky.
Did you do it in one go after the story? Because it doesn't happen every time. For me it happens like 1/4 of the time now. Something like that.
Not with riddler informants now, because I have them all done. But with silent takedowns it still does it.
I restart the game, it's fine.
But every time I start the game, I know it might happen again and need a restart
