a, Why? :)

_Awestruck_ 10-05-12 02:25

Because I choose to. Simple.

And I can't even. Just as I said.

That doesn't make sense. http://z1.ifrm.com/0/1/0/e47/e47.gif

_Awestruck_ 10-05-12 02:30

It makes perfect sense.

It doesn't. :wve:

_Awestruck_ 10-05-12 02:36

It does.

Back on topic.

just*raidin*tomb 10-05-12 02:58

Lol I literally can't even.

Mr. Giraffe 10-05-12 03:10

...so that game Tomb Raider. Heard it's gonna be sweet.

Mr. Giraffe 10-05-12 03:34

I guess I will say something....

Not sure if this has been discussed yet, but assuming you can customize the bow completely and the arrows what type of customables would you like to see?

For Bows
  • Extra Speed
  • Extra Strength
  • Extra Silent

For Arrows
  • Poison
  • Flame
  • Sharp
  • Blunt

Silent Blunt Bow and Arrows can knock someone out, or knock down something. Strength and Sharp can cause limbs to fly off or do instant kills. Speed/Silent and Poison can be for stealth. Flame can be used to scary enemies and cause them to run away, or as a tool to burn down things.

Any other suggestions or ideas on the kinds of customables you can have for bows or arrows?

just*raidin*tomb 10-05-12 03:37

Ahh that's a really brilliant idea. I have nothing to add at the moment.

What if we could use arrows to design trip lines, traps?

Lara_Fan_33 10-05-12 04:04

I really hope there is an area of the game that is a secret abandoned world war 1 base or something. Its been done before but I think it could be done completely differently, theres so many possibilities i could think of.
- a chemical warehouse/science lab, full of big shelves and hazardous materials, and there could be stalkers
- twisted experimental rooms, maybe an asylum of sorts
- a hospital section, and other typical military base areas
- a hidden torture chamber/prison :cln:

I wont get my hopes up, but it has been said that there will be alot of diversity in locations, so you never know :) Im so excited to see some sexy next gen locations:jmp:

Yeah like attaching wire and aiming at a tree. You can surround a group of baddies with wire and their AI will prevent them from crossing most of the time. Then you can watch them suffer or pick them off one by one. :)

I am not sure if CD are gonna go for that type of sci-fi feel. I could see makeshift lab with hazardous materials, maybe event a mutant. I dont think I can see twisted rooms or anything. That doesn't really belong in a TR game. It would be just enough of a break from the wilderness and cave/tombs without it being an entire level. I think when they said varied locations they were talking about jungle, forest, beach, wreckage, rivers, mountains, caves, tombs, and ritual areas. Not so much hi-tech areas.

I mean they made cover about one/two months ago. Features come a little later. They sent the magazine to press about 6/7 days ago, I saw OPM_UK to do that. So they could do that behind closed doors. Anyway, today the new issue about to come. You can see it if it also got TR as the next cover at the end of the magazine.;)

Well I was thinking more complex than that. That sounds like bad AI to me and the enemies seem really aggressive so i don't know if I'd want to be trapped in a circle with them.

I was thinking like maybe if there were some wires that were somehow explosive then they would knock an enemy down, allowing you to go in close for the kill.

I think that I don't get what you mean, nvm. I'm going to store now anyway, so I'll check it. Fingers crossed :pi:

Tomb Raider isn't even in Previews. They kept the best for the cover feature probably. :D

Is that new?

Lukass 10-05-12 09:09

Right, I was at three stores and neither of them have it. And the cover is different as Shaikh posted, so. :///

You went to the shop too early I guess. They revealed the cover later via Twitter and official site. Then the mags must be available in shops.

BTW, which cover you seen? :confused:

I was looking for the cover with Lara, I didn't see the cover you posted, I was at the stores. I found out the cover is different when I came home.

Oh they said TR cover is pushed back at least for a month. Why you till search for it? But which cover you see in the shop? God of War: Ascension?

TippingWater 10-05-12 10:15

I doubt that there is anything new.

I was at 3 stores and neither of them had the magazine on shelves yet.

OK. It was on the back of the delivery truck at that moment, but by this time its probably reached the destination. ;)

EDGE issue 241 also just out with Crysis 3 cover.

@PlayMag_UK: Afraid not and no-one is more disappointed than us! As said previously, reckon the next reveal has been pushed back to E3 :(
Something must went worng. :confused: CD probably ordered to all the magazines not to publish anything new until E3. That would explain why the OPM France is waiting until June Issue as well.

Lukass 10-05-12 11:04

If they did, then they're bigger idiots than I thought they actually are. Nvm, just a few days to go.

It's probably just part of CDs plan to have Tomb Raider sweep everyone off their feet in the one go. I expect all this quiet is so that Tomb Raider can steal the show at E3 and surprise everyone and then batter the fact that it's something to shout about into peoples brains by releasing info in mags days later. Don't worry, I'm more than positive the wait will be worth it. Theyve obviously got something quite amazing up their sleeves.

Bomb Fighter 10-05-12 11:12

But they said that itīs pushed back. That means that it was supposed to be revealed before E3, if I get it right. They must changed it in April. Iīm sure CD told all these magazines when they can publish what they gave them. It was planned to be revealed this month, thatīs why Play Mag had it as a preview,

TippingWater 10-05-12 11:18

26 more days and we will get live footage anyway. It would have been very nice to have something new, but to be honest I did not really expect anything.

Tonyrobinson 10-05-12 11:28

So we will probably see the preview stuff at E3 then and the magazines will be a recap. :p

Lukass 10-05-12 11:35

It was CD's last minute decision. Didn't they know when they want to reveal news or what? :confused: They must have known the mags are going to be out before E3, Karl was in the UK some time ago because of the previews, so...why oh why? :/

Spong 10-05-12 11:41

It's all lies :pi:

Lara_Zoz2006 10-05-12 12:05

This act getting old now cd !!

lcroft_lc 10-05-12 12:15

This is not the first time. CD did it with one GameInformer cover reveal time article, the final one, making the cover. Check:

In Regards To Our Final Tomb Raider Hub Update
Quote:

A quick update for any of you who’ve been following our Tomb Raider coverage: The last piece of content for the Tomb Raider hub was slated to run today, but Crystal Dynamics has asked for an additional day to perfect the project.

Lukass 10-05-12 12:22

^ This was just one day. But one month? :rolleyes: not to mention they've had 11 months to prepare everything...I'm speechless.

Weemanply109 10-05-12 12:26

They're only really discussing how the developed the render for the GI cover. Nothing special.

TippingWater 10-05-12 12:29

I hope that the new content will leave me flabbergasted and make me forget about this long wait.
