I am hoping that they have areas of water you walk into then start to wade as u get deeper... like in Tr2. Also would love to see the return of her starfing movement when on the surface of the water as well as the legend swimming... Press and hold another button to strafe and if u dont hold the button she would do the front crawl stroke...? (Hope im being clear?!)

If there were watersections that she could walk/wade in then that would open up the fear factor that the alligators could follow u out of the water too. Personally I oanicked when I was in the water with the crocs but can u imagine if they were also able to come up onto land... there would be no escape.. I think they implemented this in one of the games already but it was sadly overlooked for the next gen games.

I also hop e that there are unlockable outfits... I know a lot of people disliked it but hey u dont have to use it.... I will miss the outfit changes.. I think it was a neat little extra.

I didnt really like the wading as it slowed down gameplay and lara could not jump whilst the water was up to her waist which (while very realistic) still got a bit annoying. :) But who knows maybe CD could include it and tweak it a bit:)

I've seen that complaint a lot lately... Is it just me who thinks that slowing down is actually a good thing?

It is a good thing virusbuster:) Makes the game more realistic... Actually I have the feeling that TR1 and TR 2 look MORE REALISTIC than LEGEND, despite their crappy graphics...

I would like a combination of the wading and the swimming from Legend. If they keep the option of double-tapping the triangle button (PS2 controller) to speed up the motions, I think the wading could be the "normal" movement and actual swimming could be the quicker motion.

Legend's combination of strokes and wading are much better I'd say. In the classics, I always hated wading around slowly.

Exactly what I was thinking :tmb:

I actually liked the 'wade' feature, sure it made it a bit slower, but if there was an enemy near that you needed to get out of the water from, it made it a lot more suspensful, lol.
