do you remember Karl speaking about a hub as big as the whole TRU (of course not literally ) ?
what hub he meant in your opinions ??

I told myself I wouldn't collect stuff and do the side tombs on my first play through, but I can't resist it. I really enjoy doing it. xD

Oh, and the MP on the PS3 is terrible. How was the game released with the MP like that? Lag and players falling through the map. And this is after the patch. :vlol:

Omg! You've gotta collect stuff! Especially the journals! O:

The MP on XBL isn't bad at all, I've never encountered those things. Well, I've had like one or maybe two people stuttering around the match, but I think that was more them, than the game, considering everyone else was fine. :p

The PS3 isn't exactly known for it's amazing online servers. :whi:

Mikky 12-07-13 19:33

^ I said on my FIRST playthrough. I was planning to do it after I finish the game. :p

Thank you. :D

You know, my brother is playing the game atm and he just discovered something interesting. He was shooting down deers with the bow after hunting the first one, and he noticed that when you aim and move the crosshair towards a deer, the crosshair automatically goes to the deer. Like, semi-automatic aiming. O_o When he first told me, I naturally thought he was mistaken, but then I tried it for myself and it happened. Now, is it just like this for this little part of the game, since it's early in the game etc. or maybe it's just like this at that bit in Easy mode? I was playing Hard mode on my turn earlier and I didn't notice this happening. Anyone aware of this or...? :p

You say he was on easy mode? Because there is auto aiming when it's on easy.

Your Brother must be playing on Easy mode. There is still manual aim, but on Easy, if Lara scrambles the crosshair moves and automatically finds an enemy.

Ohhhhhh, right. I had no idea. O_o Nice to learn something new. :D

YOU CAN TALK TO WHITMAN WHILE HE'S STANDING AT THE GATE?! UGGGGGGHHHH!!! I just saw my brother do it. I didn't even think you could. Now I won't be able to get the Chatterbox achievement! Mduehfhiehri! Ugh! >___________<

If I do all of them from the point I am on now on my playthrough, and then on a new playthrough I talk to Whitman, will I get the trophy or will I have to do all of them again?

Rai 12-07-13 19:50

^I think you have to do all of them again. I went for that achievement on my last playthrough, but I must have missed something out.

They don't carry over. You have to do them all in one playthrough. :(

****. T_T

I guess I could just do it while I'm on one of my multiple playthroughs (no music playthrough, Death Run, Speed-Run, 100% playtrough etc.) :pi:

Tonyrobinson 12-07-13 19:55

I want more side missions and vehicle in the next game, maybe a swimming section. :)

b.gluch 12-07-13 20:48

yes! side missions! lots of them, that you can go back to once you've finished the game.

larafan25 12-07-13 21:04

I don't want a swimming section, I want swimming in general.

Maybe we can find and upgrade gear to allow further underwater exploration. That would be the real gear-gating, metroidy, super awesome fun thing to do. Instead of throwing us into a chunk of ocean for a bit of story.

While it's not that annoying swimming machine from the Core games, Im on it. Assassin's Creed: Blackflag should be Tomb Raider IMO :pi:

Indeed. Just looking at those islands, and the giant blue ocean, and the temple. I need that in TR, but a sort of...non-linear version of it.

SurvivorReborn 12-07-13 22:44

I need some really breathtaking locations that I'm eager to explore.

Hairhelmet12 13-07-13 01:17

I need a rebooted Natla. :mis:

We had one. It didn't work out so well for her :pi:. But, nooo, let's leave her in Helheim in the Eitre where she belongs and no new new reincarnations of the character. :p

But Natla's gotta be in the TR Univrse! Always! She's Lara arch nemesis! :D I think there is still so much to Natla that we don't know, the whole 7th age thing, the wheels of kathar, tihocan, there's so much that was brought up in the LAU trilogy that was so interesting, I'd love for them to throw it all into the mix again and properly explain it. They're such interesting and great ideas I'd hate for them to go to waste. She's just such a strong character, more so than enough to warrant another go, if done right. Can you imagine a next gen style TR1 Atlantis but with some horror elements? :cln:

Plus Lara seems to be focused on lost civilizations if we're right about the whole Croatian thing. So I mean she'd have to work her way to Atlantis eventually. Especially with that line in the beginning of the reboot, we know it exists in this universe and Lara thinks it's just a myth, but now, by the end of the game her logic of myth and reality is shattered. They've just got to go full circle with it all. :jmp:

"Everything you've done has lead you to this place, you're here, because you belong here Lara!"

This, so much this. I could totally imagine Natla being rebooted to be more extremist & twisted. I'd love to see both her & Atlantis return in some way. She was the most interesting character in the original universe, she's too good of a character to just ignore. And Atlantis is a good enough myth to be reimagined.

I would love it if by the third game, Lara starts getting interested in Atlantis. Like it all just comes full circle.

I don't understand why people are so against rebooting old characters. The whole point of a reboot isn't to eradicate everything but to sort of reimagine the universe. Hell DmC & Batman both rebooted old villains and it turned out brilliant. Sure I want some freshness, but I'd like to see more than Lara rebooted. It's kind of silly to shut out the idea of bringing old characters back.

YESSS! It doesn't have to be like another remake, but like you said, reimagined. :D

Omg and Amanda. I need Amanda back in some way. She could be a friend of Lara's father that he screwed over in a way? (maybe an ex? :cln: )They could have had a falling out over credit for an artifact or something? I don't know. :p Now she's holding a grudge and taking it out on Lara and causing all kinds of trouble! Hmm, but then she'd have to be older and not so much Lara's age.. and then she might be a little too similar to Natla perhaps? Brainstorming is hard. :(

Amanda is another I'd like to see be rebooted. Maybe not even someone Lara really knew too much. Amanda was always into the occult. What about instead they reimagined her to be part of Trinity?! :eek: They seem extremely interested in the occult for some reason.

Rosaly 13-07-13 19:35

Hey guys, can you tell me how can I unlock the "sure-shot" outfit, or I should download/buy it?

_Ninja_ 13-07-13 19:37

You have to buy it.

larafan25 13-07-13 19:39

Purchase it from xboxlive/ PSN/ Steam, install and then run the game, the outfit should be available at the base camp under the gear menu.

I finished the game today (story). Go me! Now I just need to go around exploring and get 100%. Really looking forward to it. What fun! :D

Oh, and and apparently, talking to Whitman at the gate is not needed for the Chatterbox achievement. I missed him out and I got the achievement anyway, so yay! All is well. :p
