Lara's Healing Herself/Medi-Packs Confirmed

[LaraCroftRox]

Right, the medi-packs and Lara healing herself theory has been confirmed.
:)

In a german preview, written by "Eurogamer.de", there was something said about the new healing system. If Lara loses a third of her maximum energy, she heals herself over time gradually. But if she loses more than a third, then she has to use a medipack. These can be found everywhere, but this time, they are hidden in bottles and vases which Lara can destroy with her weapons.

i translated the page to make things easier using a site, it isnt vcery accurate but here goes it is sort of a spoiler

could sinnieren now probably sidelong over the development of Lara Crofts breasts and their appearance in the course of their adventures, but that should not have been today exceptionally our topic. Instead we place into the center, which stands for new adventure also with Laras in the foreground: The research.

Of this promise we could convince ourselves on the basis a presentation with the following alluding session. Tomb Raider: Underworld may light up in more up-to-date „NEXT gene optics “, deliberates themselves however contentwise upon old virtues. The Gameplay orients itself therefore rather at the last published Remake Anniversary as on putting, with which the row guessed before in the Straucheln was brought owing to new developer course.

Regarding the story Underworld attaches to the more or less open end of putting. All too much of history did not want to tell us Eidos so far however. In addition, would be boring, if one knew everything already before. Laras adventure begins lonely - on a small boat somewhere in the Mediterranean. To see round around nothing as water. Who wants, simply a little can swim by the area.

The actual object of the longing is however in form of an old temple under the sea level. And no concern, in this section does not play the breathing air a role. You must not constantly return to the surface, finally dips nobody in the ocean without oxygen equipment. Only the sharks represent a small problem, which move around the temple at the reason. But Lara would not be Lara, if she had for it no solution. A harpoon for example.

The contentwise adjustment at Anniversary includes naturally also the mysteries also. The degree of difficulty of the puzzle inserts is not excessively high, will however nevertheless require that one exerts its grey cells a little. The first challenge is still relatively simple. A kind lock with three large wheels blocks Laras way in the inside. In order to be able, must they pass the symbols on the objects arrange correctly. Before functions, a little investigation is necessary. Still two levers are missing, with which again two of the wheels in motion can be set.

Thus Lara in the closer environment makes itself on the search for it. Helpful thereby among other things some brightly shining Quallen, which to a certain extent as small reference serves, are, which could have to be found something at evenly that place. On the other hand „the Ping so called map provides “for a good overview. A sonar map, on which the outlines of the environment are represented - quasi somewhat more in detail a prepared screen model of the landscape. Thus Lara discovers for example a cavity, whose entrance under water is covered by various algae.


The two powerful arguments of Lara may not be missing - the weapons naturally.
After all levers was found and the mystery was cracked, it continues short time after with a load screen. But only in the Preview version. In the finished version at least none are to emerge more within a level. For this place an intermediate sequence is normally taken into account, while the play loads new data in the background. In the current version one painted selbige however. You know already: Secrecy the story and such things.

After short break directly a small time leap follows to a later section of the level. Times again a passage is blocked. This time it is not a simple lock, but an enormous Kraken with not less small Tentakeln. Coincidentally a larger object over its just as enormous head hangs. And also still with pointed pricks at the lower surface. If one gets already so an invitation, one accepts her naturally thanking. Before one can settle the cattle thereby, however only still some switches want to be put down.


i hope this helps make things better for you lot!

@Joey -

The pleasure was all mine,

Love from,

LCR :) :p

[fibra]

hey i can speak german but i dont stay for long in front of the computer only occasionally sorry guys i am not translating it:o

[Arctic]

Hi LCR :rasp: (Whoo! I remembered to write 'LCR'! I'm proud)

They health system sounds fine ;)
But.. hidden in bottles and vases? I can imagine a medipack inside a bottle :lol: It seems quite weird, but funny though :D

[Dr.Willard]

Non apparent medi packs; hunt for your food. It works, I like it. On the other hand, I feel this regeneration of the health could be exploited, but I sincerely hope I am wrong.

[ZXcorr]

So if Lara was hurt a bit, I'd stay idle until the health comes back full again.
This increases the gameplay time. lol :lol:

[Mangar The Dark]

I like the sound of this new system, and I imagine health packs will be a bit more sparse than in the past, since you only need to use them if you're really badly hurt.

[aLadyMayCry]

I think it sounds fine (:

[LisaB]

*shrugs* I'm glad to see medipacks return. Limiting health is really just a way of making combat oriented games harder though, so I can't say as I'm thrilled with the idea of a combat-oriented TRU. :confused: Will wait for more details.

[josh1122]

they're basically just taking the health element from FPS games. with the regenerate your health. ehh gues it will work

[Jurre]

So that's the anwser to the healing issue... Well, good.... I hope

[Vildevion]

Well i liked of medipacks. But it is good if she regenerates health back. Hopefully there is no poison thingies :s

[fibra]

I somehow thought that that they would make her regenerating by time, i was expecting that

[UNDERWORLD16]

wow thts cool this makes tha game harder

and it would be cool if they could make 40 levels like tha old games well there werent 40 but aod had 31 ithink anyway

so there is only big not small

[Amelii<3]

that sounds great! then i'll stand still until Lara's health bar is filth :D <3

[Amelii<3]

wow thts cool this makes tha game harder

and it would be cool if they could make 40 levels like tha old games well there werent 40 but aod had 31 ithink anyway

so there is only big not small
yeah, a new longer Tomb Raider game would be the best :rolleyes:

[TRPlayer15]

Hope they'll make a really long adventure. Not Legend which had only 8 levels(if i'm right)

[jayjay119]

Hmmm...finding health supplies in Jars and Vases- Tomb raider; the last revelation anyone? Can't say i'm surprised that the med-packs were re-included though. Trade marks and all.

[Singstar90210]

Interesting, jars and vases... Good that they have the medipacks back :). Jars and vases make me think of Prince of Persia though... (Pray that there's no poison! :lol:)

Regeneration would be interesting too. I wonder how it'll work... Do we stand still or can we move while our health regenerates?

[seashell093]

Hope they'll make a really long adventure. Not Legend which had only 8 levels(if i'm right)

i know i was so angry it was tooo short:mad2:

and i am kind of glad that the medipacks are more hidden...it adds more of a challenge

[Singstar90210]

Me too, but CD guarantees that it's going to be longer and more places are going to be visited.

I'm especially excited for the underwater levels, Xibalba, and Thailand!:D

The hidden medipacks would be very interesting and it would especially add more realism. As I referenced before,

Pray that there's no poison!

[Memosa]

I thought that there would be no medipacks:scratch: and that Lara would have to find natural ways of healing herself, like ancient herbal remedies and such:rolleyes:

[Dr.Willard]

I thought that there would be no medipacks:scratch: and that Lara would have to find natural ways of healing herself, like ancient herbal remedies and such:rolleyes:

It was rumoured.

[jayjay119]

I should imagine that you could do either and your health will increase so long as you don't sustain any other injuries. Maybe they will include the theory of 'resting to regain' which some games such as MGS3/4 have done whereby your health will increase regardless of what you are doing but if you stay still 'resting' your health will 'regain' quicker.

[OoxshlezarxoO]

i translated the page, and it is very accurate :)

I could now probably pages on the development of breasts Lara Crofts and their appearance in the course of their adventure sinnieren, but this is now exceptionally not our topic. Instead, we in the centre, which is also at Lara's new adventure to the fore: the exploration.

From this promise, we have the basis of a presentation, including the following Anspielsession convince themselves. Tomb Raider: Under World may be in current "Next Gen-Optics" erstrahlen, however falls back on old virtues. The gameplay is therefore based on latest published more remake than Anniversary Legend, with the previously guessed Straucheln the series thanks to new developers brought back on track.

Regarding the story closes at the World Under more or less open end of Legend. Too much of the story we wanted Eidos so far not betrayed. Would also boring if we all already knew. Lara's adventure begins lonely - on a small boat somewhere in the Mediterranean. Around nothing but water to behold. Those who want to be just a little swim through the area.

Of course it's weird, having to see medipacks inside bottles~ :lol:
perhaps the healing elements would be something natural, i.e herbs, plants, or anything that suits the criteria as a healer. other than MediPacks of course.

that kinda reminds me of UNCHARTED : Drake's Fortune.

[Ben-Raider]

I think legend was short because it was the first game with crystal dynamics so they were making sure it did okay, it has done and the next game will be longer

[superstar]

i can see it now ,

lara battered and brused , running through a jungle from a panther, she stops , abuptly and announces "i can use that plant to regain my strength":lol:
