Algardex Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 The game would have been perfect if it didn't have that stupid save method. Is there any chance that LEC will create a patch to fix it if we complain enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skate Boy Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 This is the only thing that bugged me. I loved everything but this. I would like to see a patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nd Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 I fear that this is "by design". Currently in Ceylon, I still have trouble with the crocodiles and the "adventure mode" traps. I don't know how many times I had to start over from the beginning of this chapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabrobot Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 Hmmm, I didn't have any problems with getting killed until a couple times at the very end of the game... It's not that hard... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nd Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 You're right, it't really not that hard. I remember that during the first time playing Infernal Machine I got killed far more often. With Emperor's Tomb this is entirely different. Winning a combat is very easy as far as I experienced. Puzzles virtually don't exist. However, traps are harder to overcome and jumps seem to be more difficult IMO. Infernal Machine was much more a challenge for me. However, graphics and sound are much better in Emperor's Tomb.

memezcom Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 The puzzles start to appear once you have finished the semi-tutorial level of Ceylon. Even then though, they are still fairly straightforward (even more so, if you are use to playing these sort of games). I think this is because, unlike Infernal Machine, Emperor's Tomb is like a 'follow the yellow brick road' sort of game, you just keep going in the direction the game forces you to. From memory Infernal machine dumped you into open spaces and you had to piece together all the clues which is more difficult I think. Overall though, I'm enjoying it. If you manage to find hidden gems, what is the consequence of this? I think I miss the Indy Quotient meter too......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinkie Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 I never understood the whole Indy Quotient thing, the manual didn't ever seem to explain it too well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memezcom Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 From memory, i think it was an indicator of how well you completed a level. I think the number of 'hidden gems' you found was one of the factors that went into your IQ for that level. Was the time you took to complete the level a factor also? i can't remember. In Emperor's Tomb, I have found some hidden gems (at which point Indy makes a comment about becoming rich) but other than that I can't see what their effect on the game is if you discover one.......

nd Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 In Fate Of Atlantis the IQ calculation was quite complex. Almost everything counted,, e.g. if you had a look at the bones lying around and stuff like that. In Infernal Machine it just depends on the number of treasures you found, each level has 10 and if you found all of them you got the highest possible IQ. However, the problem is that after the game has finished there is no way to query the IQ value... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skate Boy Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 About the hidden things, if you find them all, you get something Special. I won't spoil it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabrobot Posted April 12, 2003 Share Posted April 12, 2003 Ooh, now I'll have to go back and find the ones I missed...oddly enough, I actually got the ones in the harder Emperor's Tomb levels (the actual tomb I mean) at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daventry Posted April 15, 2003 Share Posted April 15, 2003 Hi this is Chris. I have the Indiana Jones game and it's very cool. The music, the sounds and graphics are brilliant. There is one thing that really sucks, really bothers me. One of the most stupidest things Lucasarts could have ever done in an Indy game. The way i have to finish a level then i can save at the end of it. Why did they do such a thing, for what dumb purpose. Can't you guy's ask Lucasarts to make a patch so that you can save in between while you play. A Quick Save Patch is not mutch to ask, because the game automaticly saves a level itself. This is the first game i have seen where you can save at the end of a level, this sucks. This Emperor Tomb game is great, plus Indy's face looks like Harrison Ford. I was tempted when the next game was being created, so i bought it. Despite the warning that you could only save at an end of a level, what can i say i love Indiana Jones. Really guy's, please write a letter to Lucasarts and tell them to make a patch so that you can save in-between gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ham Yoyo Posted April 18, 2003 Share Posted April 18, 2003 If LEC can patch this game and add a quicksave and fix the bugs it would make the game great. I've skipped countless levels because I die and get tired of playng the same level over and over. I love Indiana Jones too. That is why I have to play this game.

daventry Posted April 18, 2003 Share Posted April 18, 2003 Hi this is Chris. I first have to say the game is excellent by far. I die allot, because there is no Quick save in the game. Let's all hope and ask Lucasarts to make a patch for a Quick save and a Quick Load. I really hope they add to the patch a Camera lock on Indy. It's frustraiting when i turn, i have to press a button to turn the camera. The game is kind of slow and i can't focus that well. My resolution is to the lowest and all my other settings are off and the game jus't make it. Is it an error, because why does Warcraft 3 run so smooth on my Computer and other games too. This is what i have on my Computer, what is wrong. 18.6GB Harddrive 256.0 MB of Ram Geforce2 MX/MX 400 3D Card DirectX 8.1 Pentium 4 Windows 98 Avance AC97 Audio Sound Card Used Space: 4.50GB Free Space: 14.1GB Capacity: 18.6GB All my other games work fine. Im at the Underworld Level after escaping the General's revenge. How does one skip levels, is there a cheat. Please write back, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im at the Underworld Level after escaping the General's revenge. How does one skip levels, is there a cheat. Please write back, thank you. What I had to do was buy a gamepad with a left and right thumbstick. I bought one for $18 at Wal-Mart. The left thumbstick controls Indy and the right thumbstick controls the scenery. I now can control Indy perfectly. If you push the left thumbstick up a little Indy walks and if you push it up all the way Indy runs. Your 3D card may be why ET is running so slow. The MX 400 is kind of slow. Might want to upgrade to a GeForce 3 or 4. ET demands a lot from the PC. Also make sure the shadows are off. The shadows slowed down my P4 1.8 GHz with GeForce3. You can download a save game file and a cheat file at the link below. http://www.cheathappens.com/show_mc.asp?titleID=7253&order=type This game needs a quicksave and a patch to fix the bugs.
