OMG! At 15:40 in the Gamespot demo you can tell that stealth isn't contextual! <3

Tomb_of_Darkns 08-07-12 22:32

I wonder if the stealth is a button or whether it depends how far you push the analog stick.

I hope to God it's a button. It could be that crouch is stealth.

El oh El.

Btw she looks great in the picture!

larafan25 08-07-12 22:36

She looks great in that whole scene IMO.

Yes, that she does!

How can tell that stealth isn't contextual?

IDK.

When the player leaves the hut, Lara does that ducking and slow animation for a quick second before the player begins walking forward, and then they do it again a bit, and then they don't.

just*raidin*tomb 08-07-12 23:00

To me that makes look more contextual. Sort of. I dunno there's just no real way to tell in my opinion.

Rai 08-07-12 23:15

Are people talking and postin' spoilers in the General thread? Shame on you! :smk:

Anyone should be able to come into the thread guys.

The game is about the Greek god of poop.

That could be a spoiler for all we know, we're just discussing what has been released and what we could possibly make of it.

I'm sure most people have seen the E3 videos and if they are avoiding spoilers, they'll try to avoid this area as well. :pi:

Even so, nobody had an issue with these theories back in 2011. People just become spoiler maniacs as the release date gets closer. :pi:

Oh my God.

Just looking at this shot and imagining the dark blue and orange flame contrast which will be so present in the night hub makes me so excited!

Yea, in that recently released E3 interview with Brian Horton he said that the hub system in the E3 demos is a smaller introductory hub. There are much bigger ones where you can explore :cln: Both Brian and Karl has mentioned quite a number of times that there are "hours and hours" of fun in them. Just exploring, taking time away from the main story plot. :jmp:

I truly cannot wait.

I hope there are things we need to find and collect in large quantities of on the island, as optional extras. Because I will be searchin! :D

^Well I haven't seen the 'leaked stuff', and I will try to avoid spoilers, but I shouldn't have to avoid this sub forum all together, imo. At least this thread should be free, but I guess no-one can truly completely be in control of where a discussion goes :pi: :p. How am I supposed to navigate my way through a thread with my eyes closed? :(

:p

It might be a spoiler to say we haven't mentioned the leaked gameplay, but...:pi:

We haven't.

Though from now on anything that appears in the game world in white writing...

http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...n_2008/JHC.jpg

...shall be posted in white writing. :pi:

That's what I thought at first.

So does this confirm snow?

I forgot to mention that years ago, but yeah, those are snowy mountains, sooo....

Linoshi Croft 09-07-12 00:20

Maybe.

Although, in the concept art for where the radio tower is situated there is no snow whatsoever.

Hmmm...screw the damn concept art. :(

I wanted a sliding sequence in the snow.

Plus it would be so cool if they did the legend plane scene over again, but maybe Lara was reaching for her classic tits or something. jk

/my life.

Stevo505 09-07-12 00:23

Lara reaching for her tits wat.

jajay119 09-07-12 01:01

I think Lara should be able to level up and be able to do something like this:pi:




But seriously, is anyone else hoping we will be seeing more parkour movements for Lara in this and possible future games as opposed to the previous gymnastic approach CD took?

I thought it was confirmed somewhere like, last year that there'd be some amount of snow in this game?

I could be wrong.

supasaba 09-07-12 01:39

Don't know if this has been posted yet so apologies if it has. Such a cool montage!

*SPOILER ALERT* contains video from the behind closed door demo at E3 2012

Yes, I'm pretty sure it was confirmed.

Yeah it's been posted but thanks anyway. :)

just*raidin*tomb 09-07-12 01:55

I'm pretty sure it wasn't confirmed. But okay.

I don't think snow fits. I don't expect it to be there either. Mountains do not equal snow.

Really high mountains do. But, if they're not super super high, it wouldn't be realistic. I'm not sure the geography in that area of the globe has mountains that are that high anyway, but who knows? :p

just*raidin*tomb 09-07-12 02:16

I would like to know of an island that has snowy mountains. An island that's small enough to never be properly discovered.

That's true, but it's clearly not the average island. :p

I'm sure people know about it.. people just don't go there because of disappearances :p

Has the island not been discovered, or has nobody/nothing returned from a recon expedition to it? :pi:

I would assume no. As no one seems to know about it but the people who are on it.

Linoshi Croft 09-07-12 13:16

As they can't get to it maybe? :p

just*raidin*tomb 09-07-12 13:20

Who knows.

I only assume that no one knows about it because we don't know about it. The Dragon's Triangle is a mystery just like it is in this game and where these people and these wrecks occurred and landed in the Dragon's Triangle is really a mystery and the island explains that. It's the mystery that solves a puzzle. If people already knew about the island then what's the point?

I think that people don't know about it because, whenever they do find out about it, they get stranded on the damned thing and killed by Scavengers. :p

It's simply storytelling magic. Things such as undiscovered islands do not exist anymore. Even if nobody had ever returned from this particular island, it would still have shown up on satellite pictures.
