I think and hope, bullet-time isn´t in the game. Not in regular combat. I believe it was just a trailer effect.

It'll probably be something like Splinter Cell execution, where you have to do a take down or something to unlock the ability.

Yeah, I believe it was just a trailer effect as well. :pi:

I hope surviving on the island, looking for food and drinkable water, hunting with her bow (and whatnot) is a big part of the game, and not just a gimmick that is used once or twice.

EGGSACTLY.

If it's just shoved into the game for story purposes like every other fricking mechanic these days, I'll be pissed.

Somebody deleted this pic on eidos forums

"""I noticed that you posted two pictures with the burning background and Lara in front of it with her bow today, i needed to delete them.

Since that screen is leaked and not released yet we can't yet allow it to be on the forums. When it is released we can make it available through the official channels.

Please be patient and do not post it again, thank you in advance.

Regards,
TranceTrouble"""

"""ah didn't notice that guess we can use it then, hmm alright will edit it back in. sorry for the miss understanding."""

I actually agree, the trailer could have been composed better and it seemed random. I was honestly more excited about Underworld after seeing the trailers compared to this one. Idk, maybe it's just because I'm not into games as much as I used to be probably.

This, but not too frequent.

I actually wanted the exact opposite prior to seeing the gameplay trailer, but anything that balances out the cinematics and QTEs would be great. So I agree.

I am kind of worried about the whole island mystery. I was hoping that it will be something extraordinary, something related to the religion showed in the den that causes all these ships and planes disasters.
Now that the bad guys, non-scavengers were showed, it may end as some cheap army experiments or something like that...I don´t want that, That is so clishé.

well i think the Russians are shipwrecked pirates...

I think the trailer is good and all don't get me wrong, but it has raised a lot of concerns for me, and I'm not one to complain. Since this is the tr general discussion thread, I'll discuss those concerns here.

It looks like a scripted mess. Environments look small and linear so far...that's incredibly disappointing. Please tell the island is still huge with lots of interesting places to explore? I really need to see hub spaces pronto.

I understand that they want to be all Oooh and ahhh with their first proper trailer but it was ALL ACTION BAM BAM BAM. If that's any indication of what the game is going to be like then what the hell, Crystal? It looks like a movie. Sure, okay the story looks interesting, but everything looks forced. There seems to be no choice at all. If you're going to capture people's attention show them a Tomb Raider with a good story AND good gameplay. Show them the huge environments and mechanics that are less rigid. Let them know that's not JUST another action thriller.

The graphics...I'm not going to complain about them at the moment, but I expect more from a gameplay trailer. They still look half-done. I can see why they need extra time. Hopefully it just means they've had more emphasis on the gameplay and open environments. But...I honestly doubt it. But seriously, some of the graphical aspects need refining.

When I first saw the trailer, of course I was ecstatic but now that my stupid little "fanboy" phase is over I can see that I'm honestly really disappointed. I can't believe I'm saying this but the game does not look like Tomb Raider. Not in the slightest. It looks great but it does not look like a Tomb Raider game.

Hopefully they'll be a lot of nice surprises when I play it, to prove me otherwise, and perhaps it's better that I'm less excited for the game. I'll watch the demo at E3 and then I'm done with all media until I get the game and play it myself. But I am not impressed by narrowly escaping death at every waking moment of the game. Uncharted 3 was like that and it was disappointing. Please don't make Tomb Raider, Uncharted with a female protagonist.

The scientist guy has a similar watch like the one I have O_o I recognize it since there were two white watches when I got mine, and the one I didn't get was exactly like this. I mean I like that they are using stuff that is real, but won't Armani sue them? If I was Armani I would sue :pi:

On the positive note, I love the scientist guy now, he is awsome :jmp:

Sorry, you're going to see it a lot because it looks exactly like an Uncharted game. Scripted shallow gameplay with action after action after action.

I hate saying that. It's very disappointing.

I kind of agree. :(

Maybe ACTUAL gameplay will prove us wrong?:o

Somewhat. The writing is way worse than Uncharted.

I can't really judge what the writing is like yet, but the acting seems decent enough to me. Not as good as Uncharted's acting though. And some of Lara's peers are clearly immature morons. :p

I sincerely hope so. And ya know? It's not just me. There are a lot people in the gaming community that aren't tomb raider fans with the same exact concerns. People are concerned that it's just going to be another Uncharted as they're starting to realize how shallow the game truly is in terms of gameplay complexity. If tomb raider can still deliver on the huge environments, exploration platforming, complex puzzles, and good combat and good AI, then I won't be disappointed. I hope see some of that next week. Hopefully. :/

I'm so disappointed larafan, ahhh. D': I'm just hoping there's more at E3 to prove me wrong. The best part of the trailer was hunting the deer in my opinion. At least it was gameplay.

The sad thing is, I just saw someone say that the hunting bit was the clip that showed exploration....no dang...that's combat. >_>

It's just...I have no issue with the story, graphics, or any of that jazz. I just don't see where the real gameplay comes into play.

Also too many crumbling things for my taste, even though I wanted crumbling things.

_Awestruck_ 01-06-12 20:04

Forgive me, but it's a little jarring to see LF25 so skeptical of things. :vlol: He was always on the defensive for this game, it's weird to see him pick out something he doesn't like for once.

just*raidin*tomb 01-06-12 20:04

Yeah, it's weird for me and him both. And a few others. ;_ ;

I agree. I feel I'm going to be desensitized by the "thrill ride" by the middle of the game.

Me too its going to get old fast. I hope this game is open world or at least a non linear game and i hope this game focuses more on survival. If thats not the case its an uncharted ripoff.

Lukass 01-06-12 20:17

I'm not worried the game would be anything like Uncharted. You'll see E3 is gonna prove you wrong and you'll get excited again :D
