Anyways. I have to admit, that the atmosphere in Tomb Raider is amazing especially in the cavern and the forest. The atmosphere of /in the combat demo does seem to be "shallow" if that makes sense, it's not as deep as the cave and forest. Also, I like the hub with the giant monastery on the top of the mountain at the end of the E3 2012 combat demo, but there's almost no atmosphere to it for me. If there was nice colorful Japanese village with pagodas, waterfalls, Japanese trees etc. it would be far better and more atmospheric than what we've seen.

I just think he'll be back. I don't know.

But I think the atmosphere in the combat demo does its job. It's crawling with dudes and the scenery looks amazing and music fits perfectly with the intensity of the situation. Granted it really isn't as mysterious or scary as the den or forest I suppose.

Lukass 14-09-12 17:21

He won't be back. He's going to visit the Eidos board.

I have no doubts that the game will look and feel great when I will play it, it's just that I am getting so bored.

edit: yeah he won't be back.

Lukass 14-09-12 17:26

He might be back when the game is out, but he said it's unlikely. It's very sad. I really hate one person now. I hated the person before, but now it's even stronger. If the person is going to insult me in any way, I'll say something, that it's safe to say I'll get a perma-ban. And I will leave with my head held high.

Oh, well... don't do anything reckless.

Lukass 14-09-12 17:31

No. Not him. Edit your post, because it's obvious which TRFer you named.

lets talk about lara's most retarded moments in tomb raider

klona 14-09-12 19:58

Is there anything new yet?
omg, this year is so boring and I thought it was going to be the best year ever.
Most of the things I was looking forward to were delayed.

Yeah, this year is really boring. I thought we'll see some exploration, some tomb, some bloody relics hunting, some axe climbing. All we've got is cinematic footage with a few good moments (the forest demo). I'm also sick of the constant vulnerable Lara crap. When are they going to talk about the game itself? I mean, how they want to sell the game? :confused:

Rai 14-09-12 20:09

I really feel they should release something else soon. They've introduced the new Lara, people must know it's a reboot by now - those people who're interested enough will anyway. They need to show some of those Tomb Raider pillars Karl keeps bleating on about.

Unless they plan on completely blowing us away November-February, I worry for this game. They wanted to hook a new audience, we get it, time to really impress the fans.

Actually, I'm surprised that they've still yet to set a release of Final hours#2. I thought they were meant to be every 2 months?

Tabuu 14-09-12 20:17

they should atleast release a demo or something

Why on Earth do people keep going on about a demo?
Demo's never come before very close to realease.
Expect a demo in the last days of February/first days of March.

Mikky 14-09-12 20:25

I'll never understand CD's (very quiet) promotional campaign. Sure, with games like ACIII and Resi 6, fans get a new trailer/gameplay footage every other week and are "spoiled" but at least that way fans are kept happy and the game will end up sell millions of copies anyway. I don't care about being spoiled; no-one's forcing anyone to watch anything. I mean, the way CD are going now, people would of forgotten the game exists by the time it's released. :/

Don't hold your breath. Demos don't get released at least a month before the game's out.

But look at them how excited they are when they're talking about the footages they've revealed so far. I fully understand it took a lot of time, nerves and money to make it, but for us fans it's like....nothing so to speak. It really doesn't show anything important in terms of gameplay. I also don't understand what's so unique about the combat system that's been shown. I don't see any evolution, nothing that would make me say wow. If they showed a single tomb + the axe climbing and if the whole video was like 3 mins long, it would be much better than revealing 20 minutes of cinematic video not showing absolutely anything important for the players.

And I don't believe we'll see anything new anyt time soon.

I completely agree with this post. Spot on.

And yeah, I don't think we'll see anything new until December or January.

Rai 14-09-12 20:32

@Mikky, I don't think people are gonna forget TR by release. CD are still showing and demoing the game at a few more gaming events in October, so that only leaves 4 months before release. But people are bound to wonder if there is more to TR than just running around shooting arrows and that one combat fight. We need to see something that Lara/we can do in the game, some actual gameplay besides running and the odd jump - or QTEs. I like what I've seen so far, but there's only so much of that to go around; I'd still like to see more gameplay to convince me the game is worth it.

@Lukass, I agree with what you're saying. However, CD have a right to be proud of what has been shown so far, it's good stuff and I'm certain it took a lot of work and effort. But, unless they show something more than running and hopping about, I feel they're shooting themselves in the foot (with an arrow).

yo n' Rai make a point cause if they just showed like a side tomb or something they could resist the spoiler montage with the whole comic con thing. they should of stopped at the end of the deer demo like at the gaming events. like you said climbing axe would be great to show. how you use it and climb but like to get to a side tomb. so far the combat changed with manual aim like every other game they should show her fighting with her hands but only if she can cause in all her games lau she can only kick :ton:

Yeah, I know. I was just slightly exaggerating. :p It's just that all these other games get new stuff all the time, and we get close to nothing. :/

They just gotta show me some real tomb raiding now to make me happy.

Lukass 14-09-12 20:37

In fact, does any of you remember anyone saying, wow the gameplay is amazing? I don't. We are excited for the game indeed, but when we like something it's always things like "Oh, look at her face, she's flawless in that screenshot", "look at the lighting, it's so dark and good looking" and blah blah blah....I like her running animations, I like her jumping animations and again blah blah blah. But NONE of us ever said "Look at the way she's exploring the forest" (maybe because they haven't showed any proper exploration lol)..there's like nothing to it, the game is just running, QTE's, shooting (that we've seen million times in other games) or what? A lot has been told, a lot has been promised, we haven't seen even the tinnies bit of it, yet.

I remember saying that while watching the combat E3 Microsoft demo, and then that "broll" footage, but after the hype died down, I realized it wasn't anything ground breaking. Just temporary excitement, I guess. I want to see something that will leave an a long-lasting impression, you know?

Lukass 14-09-12 20:44

@Mikky^ Yes, I know exactly what you mean. I'm waiting for that moment too.

Everyone, all of us would say the game is amazing after actually playing it. But it was just a bit of running in the forest and shooting a deer. Not really an actual gameplay. Gameplay for me is traversal system, climbing, exploration, using tools.

Lio123 14-09-12 20:48

@Rai -7:46 to 12:55

tampi 14-09-12 20:49

What happened to the videos on the final hours?

I thought they were going to make a video every month or so.:confused:

Rai 14-09-12 20:51

@Lukass, I understand you perfectly :tmb:

@Lio123, thanks

@Tampi, they're still editing #2 :(

Much editing ...

Let's see if we'll see Zachary Levi digitized as Roth or something ....

Edit:
Any word on what is about the new video?

Lukass 14-09-12 21:07

^ Yep, it's going to be about the writers of the story.

I will count how many times we'll hear "Lara" in the video.

NRO. 14-09-12 21:17

I want to know about the other cast, tbh.

Mikky 14-09-12 21:29
