ok i watched the video and i know what im suppose to do but how on earth can you get it to go that fast to get past things thanks.

I thought the same thing when I first watched the videos

The speed only comes with practice, i'm afraid

BUT, just go easy for now, remember you are not doing a speedrun just yet

BTW ...... TriBeCa posted some videos too. here is another similar one.

there must be a quicker way to get past these dam swords as another day has gone past and no luck, there has to be a fix or something out there to let you get speedrun without you having to ulock trials or something.

thanks for the info mate ill give it a go and hope for the best, but i will let you know how it goes thanks again and yes i agree with you on the game she's a dam good game .

yeah, keep working on it! basically this is the point in the game where you have to perfect your wallruns in order to keep going. you'll need them again on level 13, so you might as well get it down now

in addition to dinahcat's comments, what I've found is *really* useful is positioning the camera below and behind lara (you can see it in my videos), and pressing up and in the direction she's wallrunning. so if i'm jumping to make a wallrun to the left, as soon as her grapple connects I pull my mouse down and to the right while pressing up and to the left on the keyboard. then I jump at the very peak of her run. If you pull that off properly you should be able to make every jump.
