Tomb Raider Forums - TOMB RAIDER General Discussion Thread

I still don't quite get why they chose to show the section of the game they did in the new gameplay video. It seems like they're trying really hard not to win over the people who don't like what they've seen of the game so far. I've seen lots of complaints (not here but in general) about there being too much shooting, not enough platforming and puzzles and they just keep showing more shooting. There are three reasons I can think of for that:
1.the game consists primarily of shooting and there's not a whole lot of platforming or puzzle solving that they could show.
2.they are completely unaware of the criticism.
3.they just really, really suck at marketing :p.

I really, really hope it's 2 o 3.

yeah really

Also it would have been a lot better if the ammo boxes were smaller or if she only took the ammo out of the boxes. The way they simply disappear is kinda off. Anyway this is just nit-picking, and nothing can be done now since the game has gone gold :D.

I guess because it can cause FPS drops.

When she is just standing and the wind is making her hair move I think it looks realistic, but when she runs and stuff it's just a bit too floaty. It seems to react like hair does when it is in water. That's the only problem I can see with Alice's hair. I agree though. It's the best hair physics I have seen in a game yet.

This is probably the reason why.

I think her hair physics are really well done this time. Sure the hair doesn't look too good, but the movements seem fluid and very realistic. It's especially noticeable from 6:08, when the camera gets close to Lara's face. I really love how the wind blows the strands in different directions, and that bit when Lara's ear gets visible is somehow sexy. :p

I agree the physics of her hair finally look satisfactory. But the actual mesh of her ponytail bothers me. It looks very jagged and unfinished. Some more alpha textures would've improved it greatly.

Her hair is fine. Far better improvement from the first demo we seen.
