Answers - GO!

Also, time to go home. It's midnight. *_*

1) LaraRocks2: This may be a little early or irrelevant to ask but: Does Crystal have any further intentions of continuing the spinoff "The Lara Croft and:" titles? Will Lara ever be featured in Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale?

Karl Stewart: Although we loved making LCGOL, we currently have no plans in the works to make a follow up to the title. But as we say at Crystal ‘Never say Never’.

With regards to the PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale question. We love what the guys and girls over at Sony have achieved with ASBR, they even approached us about the possibility of including Lara. But to be honest to us it all boiled down to timing. We really set out to create a reboot where the first time you experienced playing as Lara Croft it was in our game on March 5th and nowhere else. We’ll see what happens in the future.

2) KnightStar2001: Does Lara have an Inventory limit in regards to how many weapons she can have on her at one time?

Karl Stewart: Lara has a limit of four inventory slots, and therefore four weapons. We’ve detailed them at various points in time so far the bow, a pistol, a shotgun, and an assault rifle. Dont let the limited number fool you, though, as all of the weapons can be upgraded and modified in meaningful ways that drastically change combat.

3) Klona: What is the Endurance DLC pack?

Meagan Marie: Freebee question! The Endurance Pack DLC is actually the Shanty Town Multiplayer Map. It was originally named Endurance DLC because wed not yet revealed multiplayer. Sorry for the confusion![From official forum Q&A session #11 (January 2013)]

4) Tecstar70: This is the first Tomb Raider that's rated 18/M. There may be younger gamers who love Tomb Raider and some people will be wondering what the game contains that warrants this rating. I understand that you cant go into too much detail but can you give us any further specifics of the content or themes that attracted this rating by way of guidance?

Meagan Marie: If you’d like a really specific example, the official ESRB rating information can provide it. Warning though, some spoilers to be had. http://www.esrb.org/ratings/synopsis...=Tomb%20Raider[From official forum Q&A session #11 (January 2013)]

5) Levyjl1988: Will the preorder skins (Guerilla, Aviator, & Hunter) be used in multiplayer as well as Campaign?

Joe Khoury: The pre-order skins are designed specifically for single player. Multiplayer has its own unique offering of characters and skins. [From official forum Q&A session #11 (January 2013)]

6) A Big House: Lara as a MP character is only unlockable at level 60. Does your progression in SP gain you these levels, or do you have to level in MP only? And, will completing special objectives in SP unlock goodies in MP?

Joe Khoury: While thematically similar, we look at the two experiences as unique. You’ll need to have MP fun to unlock MP goodies. [From official forum Q&A session #11 (January 2013)]

7) Jurre: Can players send text messages to each other in multiplayer? And can an offline player play around in the MP with AI players?

Joe Khoury: No, they can voice chat instead. That’s more fun than text messages, no? In regards to offline MP with AI, that is also a no. For us to provide the best PVP experience we needed to focus all of our attention on the systems involved. [From official forum Q&A session #11 (January 2013)]

8) Blackseed32: Do we have an option in multiplayer to customize the selected player?

Joe Khoury: We wanted you to reconnect with the characters you met in the single player campaign, and as such you can’t customize their physical appearance. You can however customize your skills and weapons. [From official forum Q&A session #11 (January 2013)]

9) Darksaivan: Is there split-screen multiplayer?

Joe Khoury: No, and this was a very tough decision to make. In order for us to remain faithful to the way the game looks and allow the player to enjoy the same scenery they did in SP, we had to make a call not to include split-screen. As much as we would have loved to have it, it wouldn’t have done our world justice. [From official forum Q&A session #11 (January 2013)]
