i am using an xbox one controller for this game. the controls are not exactly as i remember them. but i can get on with them ok.

It is the way it is. 27 year old game, they aimed for being more precise and realistic.

Some tips.

For big jumps Lara always need to run a minimum of 1 square beforing she can jump.
She won't jump before running at least 1 square if she was still.

(If you pay attention you'll notice the game is based on a grid of these squares and at some point you get used to her movements in this grid system).

Are you talking about the tank controls or the modern controls op?

Look, these classic games play completely different from your average modern 3D game. Have you played or heard of the classic 2D Prince of Persia games? Tomb Raider 1 was heavily inspired by it, and plays mostly like it but in 3D. Every move carries weight/inertia, you can't just aimlessly jump and run around. You need to be careful, walk when close to ledges to not fall, align your position to where you want to jump. You are in total control all the time every misstep and failure, as also every successful jump/plataforming is all on you.

It really takes time getting used to, but they are very unique and rewarding. Give it another go, watch some videos. But, it is not for everyone. It might really not be your cup of tea, and that's fine as well. But the game is not broken or weird. It is just different and unique.

I play only modern controls, because I really don't have skill for a tank, sorry :luckysad:

It is very straight to the point, but it still might help you:

The most important tip:

Never miss a big jump:
1. Walk to any edge (she won't fall if you're holding walk button)
2. On tank controls OR with weapons on modern, tap back, she will hop back exactly 1 square.
3. Run forward holding jump button, since she can only jump after running at least 1 square she will jump at the edge, making the biggest jumps possible always hit.

I like how you insult these classic beloved games then ask people not to attack you, lol.
The attempt at making "modern" controls is a nice try from the devs, but really hard to do in a game that wasn't designed for them, i recommend learning to use the tank controls.
If a 7 year old could do it in 1996 i'm sure you can too.
