A lonely ride

I'm glad I happened to be recording. Oddly peaceful! Amanda's men are on strike I think. They didnt sign up for colder climes

Nice!

1) How’s this possible?

2) Can it work also with the Peru ride?

EDIT: It’s a one-time bug I assume........

Just an evening ride to calm the nerves before bed.

Funny! I wonder if you could have gone on like that indefinitely?! I think the game loads the tunnels and end part based on how many enemies you encounter.

From what I know the entire road is either randomly generated or loops indefinitely until you kill a certain amount of enemies on the jeep I believe.

A game breaking... glitch? Or did you delete them deliberately?

Looks like without the mercenaries there's no progression (i.e. when you kill the mercenaries, the next section loads).

Not deliberate! but I'm glad to see it's not rare eh! Kazakhstan is notorious for glitches. This is the Japanese PC version of TRL, with a different game-engine and disgustingly rare and unplayed/referenced online. so, i'm seeing little things and errors I haven't seen from other versions. The life of a Tomb Raider nut!

Interesting- but I do remember this going on and on and on and seemed to never end. Then, u finally ride onto the truck.

Ah yes the way the designed the level was for a certain number scenes to loop randomly until all enemies are killed, to give the impression of a much longer road, then load the next set piece.

The result being that if the player does not kill all the enemies for any reason, it will loop forever. I encountered this phenomenon in one of my initial playthroughs when I attempted a 'pacifist' run.

While a lot of kills in the game can be avoided, these ones cant.
