Lara's moves? questions..

[Golden Laurel]

As the title clearly states, i have some questions about lara's moves. At fisrt i wasn't satisifed with many of them, but when i saw this one person play, he did it so well, and stuff and he made me like the new motion capture.... so anyways my questions are:

1. how does the adrenaline headshot work? i meen like how do you activate it? do u just jump twords the enemy?cuz i liked jumping over the enemy, rather then ontop of it.

2. I know you can swim with guns and supposedly swan dive, but if you jump in the water with guns drawn, does she keep them drawn once you hit the water, or do you have to take them out again.

3. How does the duo targeting system thing work?

4. ive heard the camera is trippy? is it realy that bad, becasue they said they improved the camerea system :scratch:

5. How do you blalance walk on beams? do you actualy have to blance her, or does she do it herself? And is there anywere else in the game were you have to actauly blalnce her?

Sry. i dont have the demo, so im hoping who ever does could help me out with these question.

thanks :D

1. Adrenaline works only when your Lara bar(2nd one) is completely filled up by fighting. Once its full you have to run towards and enemy and press X i believe it was to initiate the move, then move the cursor(red) to the gray area in the middle of the enemies head/body and shoot, and if you time it right, dead enemy :)

2. I never swanned dived so cant answer that

3. Duo targeting works like it said it would, targets two enemies at a time, press left trigger (360) targets an enemy)

4. Camera wise, your going to get a mixed reaction of people who liked it and people who hated it. I liked to be honest, yes there are some points where the camera is a bad angle, but you can adjust it yourself with the right stick(360) and its fine. The camera is trippy at times,but nothing major. But I'm sure people are going to respond to you saying how bad it is, its all about personal preference and something you need to see/feel for yourself to get an idea of how it is

5. You balance her yourself, when you are on a beam/platform and start walking forwards, she starts tilting and fall off, you have to press the other way on the stick, or move the stick back and forth to get her balanced correctly again

Yeah that's exactly right!
Yeah the camera can be alittle tricky at times but thats really only because the enemies are really overwhelming! :eek: The tigers are like fighting REAL tigers! it's awsome and im getting the hang of it. :D :D

[Golden Laurel]

Thanks for your help guys!!! Can't wait for the game!! :lmao:

[toughraid3r37]

No Problem! I guarantee you'll love it. I Do!!!! :D :D :D :D

Man.. I can say to you, if you are a PC gamer..

Buy/Use a joypad, things are really hard when in combat, especially when dealing with tigers..

I'm using the keyboard and u don't have time to think where R is, and when u press R to switch targets it changes weapons, I really don't get it! :nut:

Maybe because i'm not adapted to the new system.. Yes! I'm not :D

On the note of Lara's moves, I was wondering if anyone knew how to make her do that hand spring thing (sorry, I don't know what it's called) on the beam/bar.
Thanks

[blahblahperson]

speaking of laras moves, do you guys know how to make her pose and cross her arms??

to do that, the camera has to be behind lara, as youre going forward, press crouch/roll and she will do a flip

[RaiderGirl#1]

Oh, okay. Thank you! :D

If it's included in the game, it's probably one of her idle animations. I only got as far as seeing her putting her hands on hips, the little time window I had to play the demo was precious. ;)

I Really LOVED IT DUDE! i dont know about you

I haven't found it to be so bad. Then again, I've been playing primarily FPS for many years. I remember bindings for Quake II mod called Weapons of Destruction. I had my keyboard mapped all the way to the UJM column, and I was actively using all these keys.

By the way, if you have decent typing skills, best thing to do is move all your controls one over, so that you are using ESDF instead of WASD. Gives you QAZ column gratis, makes it easier to place your hand in the correct spot (little bump on F key), and if you can type with your eyes closed, you don't have to look at the keyboard if all you remember is that you need to hit R.

I remember from a previous TR that Lara was able to do a back flip. There isn't a tutorial with the TRU demo. Does anyone know the sequence for a back flip or whether a back flip is possible in TRU?

[bingojubes]

she has that strange back roll she does i think. i remember trying it out once, and she rolled instead. she flips 3/4 directions, so maybe designers got lazy and made the last 1/4 a roll, instead.

[Navras]

Ok, i know that it may seem stupid :nut: but id like to know if lara reloads like anniersary? you know? by the press of a button? i loved legend, but it didn't have that :( i love dual pistols stunts :D (equilibrium, gungrave, matrix etc etc...) and i love watching lara do that :D so... does she? :(

[bingojubes]

if you need to reload, you can hit the shoot button after empty clip to reload, otherwise u holster, and unholster your guns to reload.

once you holster weapons, ammo refill. i like the holster reload myself. hate to forget to reload after a good fight.

[Navras]

:( im from portugal so, there a few words i don't know, like holster! is that the same thing like in anniversary? when you pressed triangle after shooting couple of bullets? is that a "holster reload"? ive tried googling it, but they talk about it, they dont say what it is :( im very sorry... not quite familiar with the word...

[Navras]

never mind... :( im an idiot... i found it...just didn't google it right :mad2:

oh god, i cant do the headshot, i try and i try, i fill the rage bar up, push the right analog stick in(xbox 360) and it goes low mo, i try jumping of the tigers head but nothing happens, she just jumps right over them, then i thought, because you can jump of them with out slow mo, i jumped of em and pressed the right analog stick in and it didn't work, so i'm gonna keep trying, i think i'm getting there. any yes the camera is a bit dodgy. and
what annoys me is that you see lara in youtube vids in the mediterranean level swapping guns and using her tranquilizer gun, you can't change guns underwtaer in the thailand demo, the sticky grenades work underwater if the shark goes towards them... it's seriously annoying, but i love the sprint, her tumbles and moves. especially wall jump which reminded me of Spyro a heros tail... he doles a pole swing, its been around like since tomb raider on ps1 and it got swapped over to another company that many fans did not like, but i loved all the three spyro games i had on ps2. i still had the ps1 version which was fab. and the heros tail weas good on ps2, not on 360, and i cant remember the other one i had from a friend, something dragonfly...
here is the wall jump from a heros tail and look at the similarities on underworld.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuNXKvguw_Y its around 3:20 when he does the wall jump.
