Her facial animations are truly magnificent. To the untrained eye she looks just like a real person, it's amazing how much the perspective can change thanks to high quality emotion capture techniques. I wonder if they are using facial caption during mo-cap and audio capture. I ask this because, I remember reading or seeing something about Resident Evil 5, and how they could not capture both things at the same time.

I remember Karl saying she'll get much better! We're just about to see it! I can't believe it <3 I hope we'll notice the changes and improvements immediately when we see her.

Yes, they're using facial caption. I think it's been said either in Q&A session, or some magazine.

I can hardly contain my excitement, I am so happy that finally Tomb Raider will get the treatment it deserves. Tomb Raider will finally be taken seriously. This reboot is the best thing that has ever happened to Tomb Raider :D.

Lukass 13-05-12 14:04

^ I know! D: It's so exciting! I'm so proud of myself I survived a whole year and now we'll get what we deserve! We're so close...I'm not sure how I'm going to handle the excitement around E3. I still remember how I was literally shaking when Daniel and Darrell appeared on the stage, I couldn't believe I'm about to see the game in motion, and now we'll see even more and it's gonna be polished and we're not far from its release. My life is complete D:

Such a difference :p.

@TippingWater - I'm going to cry :'( It looks too good to be true. I hope there's nothing that would disappointed me.



This doesn't belong here. We don't need to know you're horny today lcroft_lc.

KS: “What you see right now is very early for Lara. We have artists working around the clock to get things like fabric and hair moving properly. This is one of the problems with showing content as early as we have been. There are certain things that will take the back burner until the game is finished internally and we get into a phase of polish. Lara’s hair is probably 40 or 50 percent of the way. The face of Lara and clothing of Lara is locked and won’t change, but details are still in flux. She’ll get much better.

You can see this google result as I can't post those images cause they are too hot.

Ha ha... :vlol:

Well back off-topic, Lara's ass is better and the animations aren't really final and besides she is not strutting her way to seduce anyone. Either way Lara has one of the best female faces in gaming imo :cln:.She truly shines! :cln:

Lukass 13-05-12 14:44

I think Mass Effect and Uncharted among others are more detailed.

Lukass 13-05-12 15:00

I can't wait to see the opening scene with Lara in her cabin recording the video or something!

Mass Effect? o.O

Hmm...maybe...

TippingWater 13-05-12 15:03

I do not think that the characters in Mass Effect are more detailed , sure they have better developed personalities than pre-reboot Lara but that about it :).

So far. :)

*ahem* finished product not seen yet *ahem

NRO. 13-05-12 15:06

FemShep in ME2 looked more realistic than Lara, tbh, and that game is from 2010. Lara should look far more realistic in this day and age of technology, beta screens or not.

Finished editing my post.

That's from ME3, she looks horrible there. I'm talking about the 2nd.

We haven't seen beta screens yet, so we'll have to wait and see. I did google and I've seen Uncharted and I have to agree the models do look impressive.

TRU Lara is more details IMO, other than that...

I hope Reboot Lara is more detailed than any other living creature in this world, we'll have to wait and see the final model. :D

I've just seen those Lara butt pics :vlol:

It looks like Chloe's !! :mis:

Are you kidding me? That was only one block of plastic. Atleast legend and anni had some makeup on, but Trunderworld Lara, jesus that was a disaster.

I wish she would've looked as good as she looked in that badass beta screen in the rain.

We are like two weeks from the gameplay trailer (I hope) and I'm wondering how long it's gonna be.

Detail doesn't have to come from texture nor does it have to be ultra-realistic. Hence how TRU Lara was the most detailed video game character, due to polycount.

This sums it up.

larafan25 13-05-12 15:36

It seems to me that this Lara (her face at least) is very smooth, she must have crap-tons of polygons but I bet they're more evenly dispersed then the Underworld model.

Plus this Lara is totally grunged up so her texture seem more detailed and realistic. Though her skin (without the mud and crud) still seems flat in some ways.

I remember the early TRU screens, either due to the lghting or texturing you could see amazing details on Lara's body...

Like the neck and arm muscle and bone details...

She seems to get flatter in the beta...

Hitman will not lose that many sales to CoD, it would probably lose hardly any to Halo 4 which is only on the Xbox 360 and a few weeks before Hitman is released. Hitman is hardly some brainless shooter/wartime romp, someone more interested in suspense, thinking and stealth will buy Hitman. Despite the fact most of the big name shooters with online modes get a bigger slice of the gaming market, not everyone is interested in playing that type of game. So the little fish turn out to be a different type of shooter or completely different type of game they can still get good opening sales if they are good enough..

You srsly should watch the release list for fall...

Quote:

Oct 2 - Resident Evil 6
Oct 9 - Dishonored
Oct 16 - Breather week
Oct 23 - Medal of Honor: Warfighter
Oct 30 - Assassin's Creed 3
Nov 6 - Halo 4
Nov 13 - Call of Duty: Black Ops 2
Nov 20 - Hitman: Absolution
Halo and CoD are the big ones. And most parents would buy CoD or Halo for they kids for christmas.
Good luck to get decent numbers out for TR.
Sry but the game is probably a 2013 release now.

Lukass 13-05-12 16:12

No, it's not.

It is. Stop thinking as a blind fanboy. You WANT the game this year. But if you would think realisticly , the game looks more of a 2013 release. Especially no new news since last june looks not good too.
Cant wait to see more tears , when they announced the game for 2013 at E3. Which is probably the Case.

But they have said things to the effect that the long gap doesn't mean there is something wrong with the game, in fact it's all part of their plan.

Also, I think they've said before they won't be delaying TR to evade higher grossing or more popular titles.

Lukass 13-05-12 16:20

Bet the game is out in October.
