Oh well that's a relief then :p
@lukass what about.the poster and the artbook? Those sound interesting but.... Yes at 100$ is just too expensive.

Yeah I guess :p .

I don't really have that much problem with pre-ordering it from the UK (which is I guess the closest available pre-order area to me) but it will take too much time to come and I haven't pre-ordered a game before, not to mention ordered anything from abroad before so I'm kind of hesitating.

But anyway, I never really understood the concept of pre-ordering so I don't really care :p ...

The litograph...um, ok I can live without it. It's just nothing interesting. I'm buying just the standard version of the game.

That line is grammatically wrong. :ton:
Correct line 1: The special editions are nothing special.
Correct line 2: The special editions aren't anything special.

I'm bored that there is nothing new and this section is quite dead. :(

Lukass 17-11-12 07:18

^ Yes, it is dead, because you are here.

Yes I hope that March doesn't take too much time to come :p !

I like to consider myself very lucky that I have other stuff to keep me occupied and feel the gap :p !!!

We deserved a new trailer. 107 days left until the release. Maybe they will celebrate it on 100 days until release time. :jmp:

I certainly hope so! Otherwise I don't see anyone remembering what Tomb Raider is until release date... I mean apart from the fans!

Wut?

Of course people will still recognise the game from now up until release. The advertising is still strong, and growing. Now that the pre-order incentives are being released, the public are taking notice of the game, and with that same public putting down their money for said pre-orders, it's only going to keep their interests growing. They'll be following the game more often now, ensuring that the product they've already bought a piece of, is worth that money.

Which it is.

Stevo505 17-11-12 08:39

I certainly hope there will be a trailer before the launch trailer...

Tommy123 17-11-12 08:41

I thought they said we could be seeing more combat in action before the end of the year...perhaps a combat trailer?

Hmm maybe. Story trailer, combat trailer, traversal trailer (?) and then launch trailer?

scremanie 17-11-12 08:47

Or, just a launch trailer?

What's with the sudden obsession with spoiling everything before release?

Yes, I'd be happy with just the launch trailer.

Concerning trailers we've already gotten what we should expect trailer-wise.

lcroft_lc 17-11-12 09:31

  • Story Trailer
  • Traversal Trailer
  • Combat Trailer
  • Island Locations Trailer
  • Launch Trailer

Keep the red ones and throw the rest out. Seriously, do we need so many trailers :p ?!

scremanie 17-11-12 11:23

No. Just no.

Perfect.

LNSNHGTDS 17-11-12 11:50

Why would we need a whole trailer for traversing :confused: ?!

I can see why you would want a segment of a trailer to show that feature but a whole trailer for just taht?

Peep Show 17-11-12 11:56

I want a combat trailer.

leglion 17-11-12 11:58

CD was always good with combat. I'm not really worried about that. I need some sort of puzzle/traversal trailer. But for the puzzle i want them to edit out anything that would spoil it when I'm playing.

Boo are you serious? TR's combat has always been terrible so I really want it too be good this time and it does look promising so far.

Well in comparison to other games, yes. But i think we can all agree that with the constraints CD had to go with the classic style combat, they improved a lot on it. Plus the parachute demo proves it's pretty good.

scremanie 17-11-12 12:18

The combat was handled fine. It was never a big emphasis in the game, which it never should be.

I think the combat, exploration, and puzzle need to be equalized. Too much of any can get boring.

That must become the tagline of all future TR games!

I don't want all of those. But SE needs to show more trailers for selling the game. And they did it for Hitman: Absolution. For example: SE shows Absolution trailers with in-game footages:
  • Disguise Trailer
  • Tools/weapons trailer (Tools of the Trade)
  • Locations Trailer (Living Breathing World)
  • Kill Trailer (Showing lots of kills)
  • A new game mode trailer (Introducing Contracts)
  • Ultimate Assassin Trailer (More like a second gameplay trailer)
  • Launch Trailer
Also they have released plenty of behind the scenes footage.

Or like Far Cry 3, which already shows 11 trailers with in-game footage, and yet more to come.

While following those other titles, I feel like we haven't get much yet. :)

Wait... what :p ???

All I did was agree with the fact that not much emphasis should be given to the combat. I agree to waht you said, that the combat was handled fine by CD, yet I still don't really care since the game is not about combat.

Why did you become all old-lady-staring-you-from-head-to-toe-ish :p ?

25% Shooting
