Mark my words E3 for TOMB RAIDER II.
Karl: As an amazing new feature to the system for this new game we introduce the swimming system. This is utilized in a gritty and visceral way. Vehicles also play an integral role to our new story as we use them in our physic based environment over rough terrains and to access new areas to progress further in the game. :) |

What they can introduce now for the sequel as new stuff is a smart marketing move from them. :D |

There will definitely be a horse in future games. It'll be one of those things that keeps the franchise "fresh" even though other games will have been doing for years and years before Tomb Raider ever did....sigh.

They put in the work before hand and come up with a solution that will keep them going for years. There is a certain creative experience to immerse the player and entice them to buy the product but they need to think of selling terms and what they can leave out or include for the next instalments hence what changes from the concepts to the production stage. Experience is important to sell it to the reviewers and gamers but new features like DLC and ingame content is more important in terms of sales after the dependant of the initial success from the first game in the franchise. :) |

They scrapped the horse just because they realized they wouldn't have enough cool ideas for the sequel. I don't believe they removed it because it doesn't fit in the story. It always fit. The horse would be cool option, there's nothing they would ruin if they added it in the game. The same with the swimming. I just hate how they lie. :(
|
I don't think they removed it for story purposes, I think they removed it because people thought "a horse? In Tomb Raider? Wut?"...:/

I've also heard some opinions that it leaked on purpose so CD would find out what people thinks. Do you find it possible?

Once they started designing levels I'd say that they quickly realized that a horse didn't fit in with how you move through the environment. The terrain looks really rough...not a good place for a horse.

All it takes is a minor piece of concept art to leak on the internet about a unreleased game or a concept and there will be a huge reaction and criticism. It's quite useful for the devs. |
^It's not useful when the criticism is knee-jerk and shallow.

The horse could have been a fast travel system and the areas between hubs could have been designed for use with the horse, thought because there is so much platforming involved in TR maybe they found this to be an issue. It always seemed to me that the leaked concept for the game involved a more traditional open world setting as opposed to hubs. Quote:

Wait...there are base camps that offers fast traveling....uhm, idk. :/ |
Yeah I think a horse only works well for open world environments. I didn't even like it much in UC3.
|
Actually. I think they might have removed the horse because it kinda redacts from the exploration and platforming of the game.

Both parties could sue each other if they knew one did it on purpose....! I just really think someone stole those pics, but they did a favor to CD in the process... |
^Oh, stop. Please.
Do you think they actually had people testing the game in 2009? I'm sure that was when CD were just gathering their ideas on what to do with the game. Also, why are you ending all of your sentences with Ellipsis's and an exclamation mark? |
The concepts were leaked in 09, which must have been when the survey was being conducted.
They had been working on the game for two and a half years as of E3 last year. |
I should go to the 24/7 petrol station that is 5 mins by a walk from my house to check that bloody magazine :pi:
|
Magazine?
|
^PLAY magazine is supposed to be out May 10th with all new exclusive TR poop on a disc for ten minutes or something. But some suspicious tweets make buying the magazine not encouraging.
Quote:
I'll look for PLAY on the weekend if it's not discovered by then. |
Well, it's 0:13AM here, so I assume they should change the stock at midnight, no?
