Who's the genius who gave Lara the same wetsuit she used in the Med Sea?

Not really smart dont cha think?

She'd freeze her buns off before she even got down to the statues.

The same genius that decided to take away viewing cutscenes, complete level replay, and worthy unlockables maybe?

lol

Doesn't make a lot of sense true, but it's not like it was the ONLY wetsuit available for it.

Games don't have to be that realistic.

Why do people want games to be so realistic in every area? Its a game get over it.

^ that's right

besides, I never understand why people complain about having an OPTION
You can wear the wetsuit in the Artic but you don't have to

lol yh i thought it was a silly thing but then the game finished loading and i forgot about it :)

True. Although the Drysuit isn't that warm either. But hey, it's a game after all.

Having Lara fight Thralls and Yeti Thralls could be considered outright dumb :p

Games don't need to be that realistic... by making them too realistic it usually takes the fun out of everything. I find it hilarious to swim around in freezing water in tiny wetsuit lmao

danny.rex
23-12-08, 04:56
LOL, right

Besides, it all started in TR1, with Lara wearing shorts for an expedition in a snowy place, and then in TR2 with Lara wearing shorts again in the Tibet

Ah, but they gave her a jacket in Tibet as well. Because as we all know, while ones arms get cold in snowy places, our legs are naturally toasty warm.

Lara supposed to have two warm drysuits, the Drysuit Heavy is missing.

Knowing Lara, I wouldn't be surprised if that was the only wetsuit available for the Arctic.:whi:
:DWhat, the girl's got a... unique fashion sense.

I was more over surprised that we did not have to unlock it for that level. The first time I played it, I played with the drysuit of course, but still, odd.

She wore short shorts in the icy snowy blizzards of Peru.

They made a mistake... I think...

I doubt it somehow.

"I liked the part where Lara fought undead yetis, and shoot lightning out of a hammer, but the part where she wore a revealing wetsuit in the Arctic ocean was a bit unrealistic for me"

:rolleyes::p

If it bothers you so, do not use it.

She'd freeze her buns off before she even got down to the statues.

The same person who took off the ability to watch cutscenes, have a Replay Level menu, I'm guessing. How about having the Classic outfit and the Legend outfit in the Arctic Sea and Jan Mayen Island, now that you can download the two.

Look in the arctic sea, with sea ice above you, that drysuit would not suffice either. To dive there you'd need a special drysuit that pumps warm water around the outside and NO part of your skin could be in direct contact with the water. Its a game. Get over it.

Btw is it true they have sharks in the arctic sea on the game?

Catracoth
23-12-08, 13:36
Yeah. Sharks are there.

What did you want for her? A submarine?

Actually I don't think she wears a wetsuit in the Arctic Sea...and you have that in your topic name but then you're asking about the Med Sea...Which one did you mean?

I agree that she should have had something on other than her regular clothing but it didn't bother me after it started going. A lot of todays scub gear is designed to keep you warm as well at very deep depths in the ocean so I don't know...they probably just rushed it...

And wearing the Classic outfit in below 20 degree weather is cool? :p Come on it's TOMB RAIDER, give me a BREAK. :rolleyes:

Perhaps it wasnt "that" cold :p

Besides it only leaves her legs exposed. She's got two, so why not? :tea:

Hey, It was Eidos that said the game is gonna be utter realistic, not us.

What? Are you talking about the PS3 or PC or whatever version? :confused:

I'm confuzzled! You can pick the drysuit you know! :rolleyes:

if you don't like it-DON'T PLAY!games aere supposed to have that magic touch in them.i actually thin it is a good thing that they actually made us choose from 1 or 2 outfits for a level.

I liked staring at her ass (Yes, call me a pervert if you like, I am one.) so I loved the option to use that outfit. xD :D

Well, it's true, she would have frozen to death. I would have liked it better if we could wear the drysuit, or a heavier version of the drysuit.

Not about realism, about keeping within the realism they set in this continuity, in legend she would freeze to death in cold water, so in underworld she should as well,sure there are special swinsuit for colderwaters,but they cover the hole body,face included (in mask)

because if lara looks realistic then we (the players) feel more like she is a real person and we'll want to play it more

This is exactly how I feel. The drysuit sucks. Wetsuit ftw.

*off topic* Did anybody notice the "curse" of her jiggly boobs returned this time it's alot more realer than the previous ones..just simply go close into her upper half without making her vanish hold crouch then release it you'll see:p [It's so weird how advanced games are] :ton:

Couldn't agree more, the wetsuit is hot and the drysuit is lame.

Lara's bare booty ftw :p

Lol... Yeah it's a bit stupid but there's a lot more important things to criticize in TRU I think (unfortunately :().

Of course it doesn't make sense. I know I wouldn't want to go diving in that in such freezing water. But hey, it's just a game. Sometimes things don't make any sense in games or movies. That's the magic of it. There are other things about the game that need to be criticized.

yea i agree they could have at least offered the outfits from jan mayen but it duznt bother me

You don't HAVE to pick it if you don't want to you know.. yes but its stupid that they give you the option after saying "ZOMG HER OUTFITS SHOULD SUIT HER ENVIRONTMENTS WHEEEEEEE!!!!!:jmp:" and then they give us a wetsuit in such a freezing environment

StuffedGamer
24-12-08, 22:32
It's even more fun to choose one of the downloadable customes and do the arctic level, she goes in her normal clothes and even without the diving equipment :hea:.
