A. They fired her simply because shes not needed

B. She quit

C. Your too experienced for this new Lara Croft

Still is she in that place where she worked before?...

[Pulse]

She was probably let go after they were done promoting Underworld...

Just my guess.

[Pietras]

Her contract ended. Simple.

They are dropping the entire concept of human models for Lara.
So no more Alison or anyone else for that matter.

i knew that but they didn't say WHY

Yes they did !

“For this game, we don’t feel like it’s right to try and portray this through a live-action model,” Stewart tells us. “It has to be the character in the game. We just don’t imagine seeing a real-life female version of this character running around.”

As for Alison, she was recently in Amsterdam, shooting for a movie called Amsterdam Heavy. I believe she's now in UK, rehearsing for something called Love + 1. You can follow her on Twitter (http://twitter.com/Alison_Carroll) for more details, she's great to follow :D

Edit : Okay, according to her last tweet Love + 1 is a short romantic movie.

[BraveNewGuy]

[Lyle Croft]

Yes they did !

thanks and cool shes acting and i wonder if they gave her a farewell gift when her job as the model ended. Like lara shaped chocolates and i wonder if she was able to keep the tomb raider outfits i really don't want to see the outfit go to waste (or be sold on those selling websites)

[Love2Raid]

Yes they did !

Uh? Where did you get that information from?

You honestly think they will animate EVERYTHING frame-by-frame?
You know how long that will take right? And you also know that animating something so it looks like it has been motion-captured is incridibly difficult, i'd say almost impossible.

They'll use a model for sure, motion-capturing is used in every next-gen game, the animations look a lot more realistic that way.

[EDIT]

Are we talking about a motion-capture model or a model just for show-off (like a photo-modole)?
Now i'm confused...

photo model but now thinking about it i think Alison would make a great motion-capture model she gots the gymnastics although if you saw underworld swan dives they were kind of ew. But i think that reason was because the person(an olympic person is think) did it on mats which would mean your not actually going on high places and because you think too hard on the motion capture. But though hopefully swan dives(if they appear) will be realistic but then again we don't see any water proof motion capture
