Don't worry I may be excited for GTA V but nothing can top my excitement for TR. :pi:

Just kidding!

I wonder what other animal enemies are gonna be in the game having just wolves seems boring I wanna see some hogs or tigers. :D

Rai 07-08-12 12:57

According to Play magazine, in the interview, Karl says the enemies will be 'more grounded in what could realistically be found on the island'. That doesn't reveal anything really, but I guess from that we can at least try to imagine what could be found there. I'm betting on bears as there are bear traps. It can't just be wolves.

What does Karl mean?

We’ve also shown slivers of concrete wartime ruin, a scavenger city made of salvage, and even teased some beach exploration
We'll be able to explore the beach at some point? :eek:

Rai 07-08-12 13:05

^That's what it seems to imply.

tomee 07-08-12 13:37

I don't remember that tease either. :/

That tease is probably the beginning of Gamespot E3 Stage demo where a cinematic shows beach with loads of stuffs. :) Around 02:19 of that video.

Evan C. 07-08-12 13:52

Yes, the CD team, includding Karl, since a beggining said that wreckages on the beach would be something able to explore. I don't know how Lara is going to do that since she won't swim...maybe they are close enough to walk on the water, but anyway, If we can go down there to explore freely, that will be amazing.

I've seen that I just didn't think that we could explore it.

What we’ve yet to reveal is even more impressive. What’s great about the island is that it’s got a lot of unique spaces, both modern and ancient, and a variety of altitudes and climates. The island has loads of personality, and we can’t wait for you to explore it.

I dunno if y'all already saw this, but there are some cool new t-shirts with TR on them for sale. :D

Here!

I kind of wish the green TR logo was black or even red or white, but it's still amazing. :ohn:

Zomborgi 08-08-12 01:04

Hey guys :) I've been trying not to spoil myself too much so I've been avoiding the forums. I have a few questions/concerns, however I don't want to clutter up the forums by starting a new thread so I hope I get some responses here.

So I have a few concerns about this upcoming game.

1. The game being too combat oriented; lacking puzzles and exploration.

2. The game not having any supernatural elements/enemies. I don't think there's been a game without them. And with the whole mystical island it seems kind of weird not to have them. I was looking forward to those mutants with long fingernails that we saw a long time ago before we knew anything bout the game.

3. The game having mainly mercenary type enemies. Before all the recent content was released I had a feeling we'd be fending off animals or cultic tribes isolated from the rest of society.

4. The game having a bad story. I haven't played many of SE's recent games but I've heard a lot of people complain about their recent games and their lack of story which worries me for the upcoming game. I hope they spend a lot of time perfecting the story.

Other than that the game looks great! I love the graphics, the environment the character model. The only thing I don't like (besides my suspicions) are the fact that she's not isolated but surrounded by all her coworkers/friends.

I'd really appreciate it if anyone could fill me in on what I've missed out on, especially if it pertains to my concerns. Thanks a bunch! :D

Rai 08-08-12 01:27

^ We haven't seen much puzzles or exploration, but we've had plenty of interviews reassuring us it's there, especially in the hubs. The puzzles will be more environmental/physics based than traditional TR puzzles of keys and items. I don't think it'll be too combat heavy.

Unfortunately, the mystical island aside, there won't be supernatural enemies in this game. The mystery is in the island itself.

The human enemies we've seen are all scavengers and/or people who have been stranded on the island and have been there for a long time. There may be a hint of some form of cult perhaps, I don't know. I dunno if they seem 'mercenary' like or not. I don't think they're mercenary like the Legend enemies were, ie, hired by someone.

I don't know much on the story so far except it's Lara's origins. I think that's all we know unless there's stuff I haven't seen. I think the story looks very promising. Remember, it is not SE that are making the game, or writing the story, it is Crystal Dynamics. The lead writer is Rihanna Pratchett if that helps you at all in gathering if the story is any good or not

I remember Meagan or Karl saying they are there but they don't want to spoil/show it yet.

I think they're kind of ugly :o. I would buy them if they were a different color and said "Tomb Raider." There's no point if no one knows what it is :p

I actually kinda like it. It's subtle, and anyone who's a fan will get it. It's kinda like the ME shirt I've seen a few times IRL...

larafan25 08-08-12 03:46

I'd wear that shirt if it was black or white, and the logo used the red, black, and white theme.

Tear 08-08-12 03:47

King.Louie 08-08-12 04:12

But why would they choose green. :confused: Green + Grey = NO!

That's pretty reassuring! Thanks for the update! I've been trying to gather what I can from all the media released but it's alot easier for someone to just sum it up for you. So thanks again for the help! I still can't wait for this game. :jmp: I think I'll enjoy it no matter what (I mean it IS tomb raider).

Take care!

We also know for sure that we will have to fight wolves so there certainly won't only be human enemies.

Why? You can go to events that take place in UK (without spending like 16 hours in bus.)


AND IF THERE IS ANYTHING YOU GUYS WANT ME TO DO OR TO FIND OUT IN THE DEMO, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO MESSAGE ME.

I kind of want Lara's deaths to be a surprise, though. :o

They sound so sad and discomforting, but I'm sure they will be vastly entertaining on the second playthrough. :mis:
