TheShadowOfMe 17-01-14 20:05

I wanna know more about that comic or whatever... I wanna know more about next game... :O

Is there a first comic for download?

EDIT: Btw, look at her big nails in that pic lol

Those are not even nails. More claws I'd say. :vlol:

Evan C. 17-01-14 21:07

Seems like Lara opened Pandora's Box with Yamatai. Hopefully she will be strong enough to overcome all the situation without making a tomb for each lost forgotten on that bloody island. Can't wait for this comic to come out, I'm super excited.

Stevo505 17-01-14 23:21

So why is she still dressed the same and holding her side? You'd think she would change clothes and get that impalement wound checked out. This does take place after the game, right?

IIRC the cover of a comic often doesn't have a damn thing to do with the story inside. :vlol:

That's what I wanted to know! Why is she still in the messed-up old Yamatai outfit if all these comics take place after the game? Does Lara only have one outfit :( She should steal some clothes off Sam. She seems like the spoiled, super-rich shopaholic type :ton:

Oh I see. So it's more just so people recognize the character from the game.

Love2Raid 18-01-14 00:23

Exactly. It's just art of Lara, related to the reboot game. Since she's all new and stuff, they won't stray too far from the original concept for the cover. She'll look different in the actual comic. xD

Oooh I see. Yeah I can see how they would want the immediate recognisability of the Tomb Raider outfit for the covers and promo stuff.

larafan25 18-01-14 01:05

Lara needs to twerk that white shirt from the beginning comic.

Shark_Blade 18-01-14 01:29

I can't wait for DE.

10 more days.

So, once the comic is out, we know what she is (or at least is supposed to) wearing in the sequel, right?

Evan C. 18-01-14 12:51

Not necesarely, only the story is oficial.

I like the new cover art better too ;) And thanks for noticing!

Very fit and very much a woman.

I'm not crazy about the new Tomb Raider Lara but any improvement is better than none. And I do feel the new Lara model and cover art are better than what it was when the new game came out.

You're not crazy about the new Lara? :( I'm a real person you know! lol ;)

Hopefully not, I'd like for every outfit to be different, but still similar in style.

An interview with Tanya Alexander, the voice (and body, I guess, haha) of Joslin Reyes. Quite interesting to read. :D And she really couldn't be any more obvious that Reyes will appear in the sequel. :p

larafan25 25-01-14 02:43

So Toby Gard was involved? hmm.

Mikky 25-01-14 02:52

Yeah, that was interesting. I mean, we know he was involved somehow in the cinematics from seeing the credits, but I never thought he was so hands-on with everything. And why did they keep it such a secret? That's what I don't get. :confused: Weird.

Stevo505 25-01-14 02:55

I feel like they really want to separate this Tomb Raider and the previous generations of TR. They may not have mentioned anything about him being involved because he is so associated with what TR used to be.

They specifically said he wasn't in an old Q&A, just read it like 5 minutes ago!

Mikky 25-01-14 03:10

I remember that, actually!

Crystal Dynamics are weird sometimes.

Camera Obscura 25-01-14 03:32

Toby Gard doesn't work for Crystal Dynamics anymore. Here's a post from an old thread that addresses this:

Everyone was asking questions at the BAFTA event after seeing him on the sidelines when Camilla was doing a scene in the making of clip we watched.

Turns out he has set up his own motion capture business or something along those lines and his first commission just happened to be Tomb Raider.

EDIT: Just looked it up, his company says he now does "Games Consultancy in the Action Adventure and Story Genre"

The vampirajen TR review finally came. And she brought up a good point. Roth probably could have been the father figure of Lara Croft, then when he died it probably would've, well, we probably would've cared more.

Valentino 26-01-14 15:50

Did Tomb Raider need any of the side characters?

That includes Roth and Sam. Every time I watch like playthroughs of Tomb Raider everyone seems so psyched about the beginning of the game. Tomb Raider does indeed have a great opening. But when the other characters come along and get involved did they really do anything for her character? Did anyone else think when Lara got her bow for the first time and we hear Roths voice telling Lara how to use a bow (or something like that), did anyone else think we'd hear more of his voice pop up on how to do things?
And without Sam there wouldn't be much of a Himiko story and more Lara just trying to find a way off the island.

AimlessThunder 26-01-14 23:02

What was the point of Sam's cam beyond the few cutscenes? What happened to it? CD should have really used Lara's cam for Lara to capture different scenes from the game or as a gameplay mechanic.

larafan25 26-01-14 23:03

Indeed. I was really hoping she would use that cam to capture significant things.

Buttt nooope.

Savage Baird 26-01-14 23:15

Hello!

I have a question regarding multiple playthroughs; do your upgraded weapons and such carry over? Like, is the hard difficulty basically a New Game Plus?

larafan25 26-01-14 23:18

Nope, nothing carries over. :D

No, and there's no way to do this. =/

Savage Baird 26-01-14 23:22

Oh that kinda sucks. :(

b.gluch 26-01-14 23:28

What could you even do with a camera that would be useful? Underworld had it and it served no purpose other than zooming in and out.

Take videos and screenshots. loool.

If the concept was properly implemented.

Isn't that what the Share button is for on the Dualshock 4?

Yeah, same here. Strange. It's supposed to take you to an online version of the game manual for the DE to view or download, but it doesn't work. Maybe it will only go online on the official release date.
