I don't know how Mel ended up going to CES, but any old noob (:p) could go to a meet up during one of the game events - they were advertised and anyone interested had to email Meagan Marie. Quite a few people from here went to different ones.

That would be amazing. x_x

Indeed. :pi:

Btw the concept monsters seem neither male nor female so I'm not so sure about the sacrificing female thing.

But Sam was about to get sacrificed in the survivor's trailer :S Still it's just a theory :p And if I'm right, I expect CD to hire me as the new lead writer

Look at y'all did now. *weeps* Now she's getting raped.

I really liked the horror elements. Silent Hill meets Tomb Raider. Wet dream come true, tbh.

Yeah RIP! THIS would be ****ing EPIC!
So sad CD decided to go other Way...

Bomb Fighter 12-01-13 20:25

Seeing the description under the concepts, I still praying Lara will use a machette! I mean there are scavengers with machettes, so why canīt she take one?

Weemanply109 12-01-13 20:28

Essentially the outline of the story is still the same:
  • Stranded on an island
  • No help
  • Left to fend for self
  • Becomes a heroin in the process

It's the horse riding and horror elements that I really wanted and Open world! asdfghj.

The grass is always greener on the other side :p

Had they gone this way there would have been the ' oh this is survival horror and not tomb raider' backlash and we all would be moaning how the concept art for the shanty town and himiko's castle looked so great and they ditched that for the cliche monsters

And we haven't seen what is inside Himiko's castle yet ;)

I Would like "Lara Wake" tbh.
Lara in "Alan Wake" with some tombs and puzzles would be... Epic!

I wonder why, too. The only reason I can think of is the fact that using the climbing axe in battle is pretty much the same as using a machete, but IDK.

Maybe cutting off heads was a little too drastic for our lilī innocent girl :(
But the machette could been also use for cutting tree branches or high grass. I donīt know, itīs a waste opportunity. She could benefit from it a lot.

I was gonna say that they rushed things, but... they had so much time to make the game so, it was just a dumb thing to do and not include it.

They probably thought that the horror aspect would be a turn off to too many people :(.

Dark_Messiah 13-01-13 05:05

Just remembered this guy

http://gyazo.com/aee16531cc3aa4810a6...png?1358053496

I wonder how he is connected to the plot and if he actually is part of those scavengers that we saw in the trailers.. Did that already get discussed on here I may have missed it.

Carbonek_0051 13-01-13 05:19

He sort of dies when Lara is escaping the Scavenger's Den. The rock crushes him, remember? :p Plus, yes he is a scavenger. If you fail the first QTE with him, he kills Lara.

lcroft_lc 13-01-13 05:29

CrystalD killing a lots of guys early in the game, but good that Eidos Montreal is bringing them back from the dead. :p

Right.. yeah I even played that part. I just wondered why he looked so different than the other scavengers.
I mean, at the beginning of that part Lara was hung to the ceiling in a cave where some kind of ritual and sacrifice took place. I doubt the russian guy and his followers are responsible for that. Maybe there are different groups of scavengers..

Edit: But as I said, I don't know. Ive been not following the "mystery" stuff about Tomb Raider.

lcroft_lc 13-01-13 05:57

Where can I find "Tomb Raider - Food Hunt Gameplay" from E3 Gamespot's special one? I lost that particular one which was in 720p stored in my HDD. :(

I know, but I don't think it was "announced" by CD or Eidos.
It's not against the rules, I just don't think it's been announced.

From where does Lara get her gun holster?

I was asking the same question. She doesnīt have it while fighting Vlad, but then suddenly it appears when she stands up with the pistol in her hands. Maybe she takes from him, but itīs not shown...:confused:

Fan 13-01-13 14:18

I noticed certain people are talking negatively about the multiplayer feature. I don't think they understand that this is simply a BONUS for TR fans and will add longevity to the game until the next one is released. It's not about competing with Uncharted and Gears of War, etc etc... It's about extended play for TR fans and I'm sure it'll be appreciated.

The death does look a little wonky and that upside down camera angle is weird but ugh oh well. I'm just excited for the Franchise. This feature will give them time to work on the next game without pressure I guess.

Personally I don't think it's a bad feature and I'm definately gonna use it (that is if there is local multiplayer, online sucks) , I just don't care that much and fail to see why everyone is so hyped, that's all. And the whole "a way to play TR like never before" line was a very cheap trick in my opinion, speaking of which, the Kinnect/PlayStation Move theory seems a lot more appealing than multiplayer right now...

Fan 13-01-13 14:31

Yeah. I mean, its no different than when Metal Gear Solid 3 featured that little online multiplayer thing. I think it's great for extended play but at the end of the day, it's not meant to be some groundbreaking piece of work. It's just an added feature.

It's about the actual game, still. I don't see CD ever focusing too much on it especially if each game isn't filled with a team of bad guys.
