Can we have few animals as transporting medias as never seen before like..'

1) Camels near Egypt/Cairo..

2) Elephants inside deep jungle..

3) Horse near some gardens

4) Ice Wolfs near snow regions

Would be new level of experiance if users are allowed to control dez animals n lara sitting behind dem....alll dozz wud be great raiding view if seeen on next tr..

I also got a new weird idea how about lara riding dolphins nd few sea creatures lik turtle to save her precious breath in deep inside...!!

I always wondered why they didn't let us ride the camel in the fmv of tomb raider 4. that would've been awesome. With the ps3, Laras cloak could ruffle in the wind and the camel could look life like (since we wont be shooting it lol.) and the sand particles and sand hills could be done beautifully.

ALSO a horse on the Manor is a MUST! no excuses. You could change into the COL horseback riding Lara outfit and do tricks on the horse. If she can do half those pole swings in the game then imagine the stunts she can pull on a horse. You dont need gadgets. There's already so much nature to be utilized for gameplay. Lara is more like indiana jones with twin pistols. Shes not a souped up James Bond impersinator. Use the grapple mostly for City locations. to me it distracts from the tombs.

and i agree with everything excuse said

An animal like a horse is so different from a vehicle. Look at the game Shadow of the Colossus- the controls are difficult for many people because they involve reigning in the animal and getting used to it. However, it's not impossible to programs an animal well. I'd be open to the idea of Lara riding a horse.

One thing to consider- exactly how many players are going to try to kill the horse?

Admit it, we'd all at least think about it. And with CD's mild Lara death scenes I really wonder how they'd handle a horse or camel getting hurt in TR. In fact, they'd probably just be tempted to make the entire ride an IC.

I'd like to see these.I can't think of any more right now, but it would be awesome if they gave you the possibility to use animals for travelling at least once in the game.
