Were only allowed to explore hubs so we probably wont be able to explore a lot of the island tbh

There are also hunting areas also and that forest fits the bill.

That's the only reason I even considered it. Because there's a giant forest and she falls in it, and then limps out and we take control. Maybe there a little bit...

But if there is just a wall behind us (of some sort) than how would we travel between hubs to revisit without fast travel? :/

I don't see us being able to..:/
Especially, after she fell down from an entire mountain.

Well...you know what...there may be a giant forest behind us we just can't explore...but look on the bright side, we're sandwiched between another giant space which we can explore (I think).

The area looked heavily inhabited. It'll probably be another combat section, I think you'll have to get through the area using stealth. Maybe, that's where Sam is?

I am more interested about the place seen where the demo ends. Its a tease of a HUB. Can't wait to see it. I hope they will show the Hub at Gamescom. :)

I had not had time to look at the photos from E3 so far.
They are excellent! The atmosphere of E3 is impressive. Thanks for these photos and to have the opportunity to feel the whole event. :tmb:

To be honest I think that the area shown in the end of the demo is way too complex to be a hub, it can be a place similar to the one on top of the mountain? Or, better yet, the scavengers' "headquarters" !

I'm really curious to see how places will be when we return to them after Lara has passed through...

No, it was mentioned in an interview that the area at the end of the E3 demo was a hub.

I think I understand how everything works now! :eek:

Elaborate.

Didnt Darrell just say that there where huds to explore. Not sure he specifically meant that area or just in general.

Nope, I'm certain it was Karl that said it, but it was said that a hub was hinted at the end of the E3 presentation demo.

Forgot to label the orange one, It's the Bridge.

That looks more exciting than the game I believe Crystal are making. My imagination of the 'map' to TR9 looks like this...


START >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> FINISH

Cool Map.
Do it with colors, I'm bored. :p

Yeah,he said it was the smallest hub or something along those lines.

:cln:

:vlol: Explain me please!
I don't understand anything now! :D

Yes you do. :p

Oh. Good work. That's pretty much how I had visualized it too besides the pink area.

Yall what is the second icon on this super cool card?

Reminds me of a bullet or a maybe it's a really small.... I better not say. :pi:

It kinda looks like an exploding bullet :confused: Its definitely not a grenade. So maybe it just means there will be a gun? thats all i got :p

Incendiary bullets?

^Wut is that ?

Makes me think of a flash grenade.

Gurl, no.

Oh it's an incendiary grenade.

Oh my god.

Revelation.

Ooh i just looked it up, thas nice ya. trail of blue. ya ya. But its short range :/

Everyone should be forced to watch this again to remember how awesome the combat is.

EDIT: did anyone else notice the way that guy fell after being shot in the head? Me likey

Ooo the rock cover even crumbles when he shoots at them!

She can take bullets to the head like a champ.

Thy were playing on god mode.

God...I just love that it's actually probably going to be difficult. Obviously they were using a bullet-proof Lara for the demo, but the part where she jumps onto the top level and shoots at the guys below, it's actually going to be a challenge to get this without getting hurt.

I also can't wait to fend off wolves in real time with the manual aiming, and to avoid them with the roll and not let them grab my leg.

Everything about this game minus the QTE - Cinematic - aspect is sooogoood.

When she first draws the shotgun to shoot the wall, there's something to her left that looks like a pickup.

/random

I hope the wolf AI is brutal. Heck, I hope all the AI is.

That's what I loved most about the demo. :p The enemies weapons reacted with the environment. <3

I know I was just making a joke :p
