I don't know what you all are talking about? Which gameplay?

larafan25 19-07-12 16:06

The leaked gameplay from 2011 impressed me when it came to the facial animations. But I would agree the stuff we've seen now, there is a quality of tightness to Lara's face, as if some parts are not moving.

I would have to agree with this. It's quite strange. Perhaps they aren't finished or something. But to me, that would be just a little strange to have half finished animations in a section they were presenting.

I believe somewhere someone said something along the lines of something which sort of implied that maybe they iterate on cutscenes and thus take the actors back into the "Volume" to act out a scene again.

Or something.

Wow, really, I wasn't playing that much attention to the Tomb Raider threads lately, apart from some interviews which I was too bored to watch I didn't found anything Comic-Con related. Was a new demo or something released?

ItIsOkBro 19-07-12 18:53

I strongly believe the playable demos they've been showing publicly are way way early in development.

You suckered me into watching (a small bit) of that vid, you owe me twenty seconds of my life. But you're right though, she definitely swerves to the left in mid-air. To be honest, it kinda looked reminiscent of the awful scripted jumps in all their other games, but it sort of looked like she was brushing against some invisible object too. Either way, it didn't look great.

Pre-beta.

Yeah it's like you can only steer her in mid air only for a bit and then she just sticks to it automatically. Not cool. I also saw something similar in another video when she was jumping towards a pole.

The leaked gameplay from last year? Yeah I'm assuming that was alpha or something close to it.

But apparently it looks better (I haven't seen it). I'm just sayin it's possible the build they're showing now is older than the leaked gameplay build which is why that looked better.

Well of course it's pre-beta since it was before beta :p I'm just saying, the gameplay shown this year still isn't even beta.

Also I doubt they would show older code.

Everything we saw last year was Pre alpha, according to Jay.

I think in this year's E3 her face looked great when she was using the walkie talkie to talk to Sam :cln:.

Oh yes, how could I forget that!

Also the parachute cutscene, man she was so alive there! :D

It's not. It says pre-beta and they just hit alpha in march was it? Something like that. So yeah. I'm pretty darn sure it's the most recent build in regards to what they could polish before e3. That just...doesn't make any sense. :p

Stevo505 19-07-12 22:09

The only problem I have with the facial animations is sometimes it doesn't look like they are saying the words that come out of their mouths. Like when sh asks Sam "Remember that?" it doesn't look like she says "remember" at all.

Captain Rob 19-07-12 22:22

Just watched the vid of that wall jump. It looks as if Lara launches off of a rock with her right foot to make it up the wall.

I dont know why but I absolutely love the scared "Noo" she says when the first parachute fails to work.

The parachute scene and the leaked gameplay are, in my opinion, the best they've shown so far !!!

And I agree, some of the facial animations look "stiff" in some of the new gameplay

I think its more of a "ohhHHH" like she's in pure disbelief. But yeah, I rather like it. The scene is done very well for what it is.

larafan25 20-07-12 00:52

Reading that "ohhHHH" made me want to watch it again.

Searches own videos for the HD version.

:mis:

just*raidin*tomb 20-07-12 01:16

It kind of does sound like she goes "no-ohhHHHHH"

I can't be sure.

larafan25 20-07-12 01:17

I think she says "Oh noooOOOOOOOOAWWWHQ HGHBNEHZDI KLGHB NZK,.M"

just*raidin*tomb 20-07-12 01:28

We'll find out when we have the game and can turn captions on ;alksdjfaoweifj.

ItIsOkBro 20-07-12 01:40

I never knew parachutes had backup chutes :pi: it is a good idea.

SeanCordernay 20-07-12 02:07

All this talk is making me want to reenact the scene...in real life ...

larafan25 20-07-12 02:12

Whenever I think of people sky diving and parachuting, it makes me laugh because I imagine myself as an alien, looking down at this marble raindrop of a planet and atmosphere, seeing all of these little funny monkeys in their world with this funny thing called gravity, and they climb all the way up to the top and just fall for the thrill and fun of it.

It's cute.

Lol we must be so primitive to them. Humans and their cheap thrills...

Tomb_of_Darkns 20-07-12 02:47

Ugh this convo makes me upset since I can't fall from a really high height without imminently falling to my death :(
Such a rough and sad life we humans have...*le sigh*

larafan25 20-07-12 03:03

This discussion reminds me of that fatful morning I dropped the Sea Moneys.

Anyways.

So... I have this to say but never know how to materialize my thoughts properly...

I found the crates of salvage in the night hub. And salvage is just crates of invisible stuff it seems, which works as a sort of ...currency, for repairing tools.

As opposed to a more intimate system which requires finding specific parts to repair and enhance tools.

I guess because TR is an action adventure game or something like that. I don't mind.

Just believe you can fly and everything will be alright... I'll give you a push lol

And it is kinda weird how Lara finds all these crates that she can salvage. Yet when she finds them she just destroys them and never actually looks in them. I would prefer if she would just salvage specific parts but whatever. It's no biggie I suppose...
