Atlantis - What is could be

[Storm]

I never actually played Tomb Raider 1. By the time I finally made an effort to buy the game the pc's were to advanced to play it.

Anyway, my question is this: All I ever saw of Atlantis was the red thumping walls and funny creatures, but in my mind, Atlantis is a "Sunken City". Thus there being lots of water and shades of the colour blue throughout the level. I wonder if Crystal is going to explore that aspect of the myth or keep to the original. I'm not sure if the original was an "underwater" level.

I remember seeing a fmv shot of Lara underwater swimming, holding her breath with Atlantis in the background. That's what I envisage it to be. It was beautiful.

What do you guys hope it would be?

That was just the beginning of "Natla's Mines" ;) , Lara dived from the boat to the island, but the swimming time was short . :p

in the original there were red thumping walls that almost looked like flesh and blood almost.

there was no underwater level for atlantis that i can remember :wve:

I believe Storm means the render of Lara swimming with mecha(?)-fishes. ;)

I think they could easily keep in tone with the sunken myth - even if they stuck to the structure of TR1st Atlantis.
They could explain that huge portions of it sank, and the higher bit of the continent, and the lost city poked out of the water.

That would’ve been great! Atlantis from TR1 is amazing, but they could still change it a little. The red blood walls and stuff can still be there in the level "Atlantis" but they can add more effects and kind of build the level underwater.

An underwater level would be very effective and realistic. :wve:
But I like the original Atlantas, the freaky pumping walls creaped the player out a lot.

I hope they keep it closer to the original because that's a very memorable moment from the game!

I always thought the Skeeeon (:p) CAUSED Atlantis's mutation from a thriving Egyptian/Mediterranean city to a sunken hive of mutated Egyptian people and creatures.

But not sure how or why the Scion had that ghastly power.

TBH I would like to see a whole new Atlantis to the original. Maybe CD have done just that which is why we aint seen any pics of it yet. Atlantis was the only part of the original that I didnt much care for. I would like it to be more technological, you know with ancient machinery, under water sections of the city etc. I doubt it though, they said they would stay true to the original so expect fleshy walls, nasty creatures and huge eggs that could provide a cooked breakfast for a thousand people. Sorry... bad yoke.... erm I mean joke :#

I dont know what it will be but i want it to be discusting, bloody and creepy:)
