The title basically explains it, do you want unlimited pistol ammo in underworld even though we can have to option to adjust the ammo.
And this question is for anyone who knows or has played the demo, is there unlimited pistol ammo option avaliable or is it the default setting?
I want to know really bad, because it makes the game more fun for me if there is, because I like knowing if I ran out of ammo on my other gun I could go back to the pistols, plus there my favorite weapon.

I don't really care either way. Unlimited would be great because that's the traditional Tomb Raider way, and like you said, it's nice to have that when you run out of ammo for your other weapons.
If the ammo IS limited though, it could add a new challenge and sense of excitement/fear to the game. Imagine fighting deep inside a tomb then *click* you're out...
Time to run! With Lara's acrobatic skills, evading enemies could be just as fun as fighting them I think.

That's true, actually, never thought of it like that, but I would still prefer unlimited ammo:D

I like unlimited pistol ammo, to be honest I think limiting ammo suits an FPS game not TR. I wouln't want unlimited ammo for all guns, just the pistols.

TR isn't a purely combat oriented game, so the players can't be expected to be great combat players, so having unlimited ammo for pistols is a good thing.
Unlimited ammo pistols are an essential part to the series. They've been a part of all (but one) of the games, and they make the "weapon-less" levels (such as "Offshore Rig") that much more exciting.

It's not Tomb Raider, if you don't have Unlimited amount of Ammo for Lara's Signature Dual Pistols.:D

So we can discredit TR:AoD from being TR :D... :whistle:

And that's only in TR1-3... :nut:

AoD was unfinished, I'm sure if everything was fixed, and blahblahblah, we'd have her dual wield pistols, instead of using cheats, or moving around some files to use them on the PC version.
Well, TR:A's 'Natla's Mines' as well..So.. Yeah..

Well, just like any of them (except for one).
I think it's an important part of the series to have it, and I do wonder what it would be like to not have the unlimited ammo.

I for one think that there shouldn't be unlimited ammo because that wouldn't be realistic. remember they are trying to make this game more real.
Two if they don't have unlimited ammo I hope they don't have the ammo every where you see like in AOD. I mean in AOD you could find ammo like around every corner (literally)

those are exactly my thoughts. if they had limited ammo, they could have the melee fighting really shine in this game. i would love to feel the excitment of hearing the "click" of the sound of the pistols

Has anybody heard/read anything about a Tomb Raider: Underworld Collector's Edition?

I really would want unlimited ammo. I hate running out of it cuz then i have no weapons left to use :( . I love those guns out of everything lara has ever used :D
No, I would like better not to have unlimited ammo. Limiting ammo makes the game more realistic, and gives us players the feeling that we can't waste it, for we might need it some while afterwards... And it is true, running out of ammo would lead us to use our intelligence, and lara's acrobatics and melee skills rather than brutal force. That feeling of realism and danger gives games a spice-up I'm highly looking forward to find in TRU.

yes! it's not tomb raider without unlimited ammo. to me it's just as iconic as her signature duel pistols.
Same here, and I don't think everyone is understanding the new melee moves, it would take a lot longer to kill an enemy by hitting them then by shooting them, and what about if she is underwater, and all her guns and spear gun ran out, what would she do?
I think there will be unlimited ammo for the pistols, and for those who don't want it can choose not to have it, with the new player tailoring system.

... remember they are trying to make this game more real ...
that's not entirely accurate ...
the goal is to increasingly draw from reality but only to the extent that increased realism enhances gameplay or inspires gaming opportunities.
realism for realism's sake is a bad video game developer strategy ...

I just remembered that if it weren't for unlimited ammo I never would have finished Tomb Raider: The Lost Artifact. I got stuck and didn't know where to go. After about 20 minutes of searching and making no progress, I began wildly running about firing my pistols everywhere and yelling "Let me out of here!!!".
By pure chance, a stray bullet hit a vent cover and broke it, revealing the path.
Haha, great moments :lol: . Maybe they should leave it unlimited in case I get into that situation again...

@ KrayolaTS: :lol: that's funny!
I prefer unlimited ammo for the pistols only. Sometimes, I try to shoot the enemies from a distance (to spare my medkits!) and the bullets don't always hit target that way. Limited ammo would make it a lot harder for me to finish!
However, I agree that limited ammo increases the thrill. Like in Natla's Mines (those rats :mad2: ) or the mummy's in The Last Revelation, which you can't kill.

I like the way they handled it in TRL and TRA-- unlimited, but she does have to pause to reload occasionally.

There is an option for ammo, I just want unlimited to be an option for the pistols if it's not the default setting.

Yes, i agree! And what do you think about the idea that the limited ammo would be optional?
This feature would be helpful to the begginners but makes a new challange to the hard TR fans!:)

Yeah, the option for unlimited ammo would be good, but another option for limited would be nice and tough! Whatever happens though, I'm sure CD will make the right choice. They're the ones making the game so if they make the pistols have unlimited ammo then it's probably for a good reason.

Put ammunition limitations on all the other games but god leave the 9mm pistols alone. :)
It's like a tradition for the 9mm to be unlimited and I see no reason to change that tradition. The unlimited ammo was always balanced out by the weak power anyway so the equation is balanced really.

Do I want Unlimited amo? Heck yes! Also if they're gonna use the films as a template, why not incorporate that clip dispencer that comes out of her back pack. But after seeing the gameplay videos there isn't much of a backpack behind those two guns. Is it invisible?

If there was limited ammo and then you ran out, you'd basically be stuck. Sure there could be ammo around every corner, but that would be the same as having unlimited ammo.

yes.
because if I don't have it, it will be like AOD all over again... NO MORE AMMO=Losing to bosses=notfunx10!
hahaha, omg i'm special today.
