Hidden City climbing bug
I'm experiencing a potentially game breaking bug in the Hidden City, on the way to rescue the queen, where you have to climb over the river after the guards won't let you cross the rope bridge. See screenshot below for visual reference.

I've tried this part 30+ times and Lara simply will not jump to the ledge you're supposed to grab after the rock wall in the screenshot starts breaking. I've tried every possible slight variation of the stick, I've tried grabbing the next highest ledge with the grapple axe, nothing works. She just jumps straight up, falls and dies every single time, no matter what I press.

Anyone else experienced this? Discovered a fix?

Maybe Lara is looking into the wrong direction when jumping ... try to correct the camera/view before the jump.

Another possible cause might be wrong position of the grapple axe. Vary the position of the axe where you rappel.

I never would have thought to do this - lowering settings from Ultra to High fixed it and I was able to progress. Thank you!

I'm stuck exactly in the same part. I'm playing on Deadly Obsession, and it is very annoying to go all the way back to the last camp, having to watch all the cutscene again.

I tried reducing the graphics, but it didn't work. I wonder if thete is a "correct" way to make jump.

I've been stuck at this jump for several days now, too. Nothing I do will let me get past it, including changing graphics settings... anything else to try before I demand my money back?

This game is hot garbage :DukeBarrel: compared to the previous 2 Tomb Raider games. I tried this 15 times. Nothing. Turned the graphics down, and it worked, but then the stupid idiot jumped off into the water. Then I could not repeat the previous success. Then the last attemp I jump, miss like the 20 other times and throw my grapple and it hooks in something way too far away and was able to get the next check point. God I want this game to be over. :DE_MyEyes::DE_Tasty::Nelson::DLskull::Lurcher::cozycastondeath:

Getting stuck in a lot of spots.
All i have to do is jump and press E and she is not grabing the wall.
Did go back to get a box in the first vilage but now i can not get out it is like the wall she needs to take a hold of is to hige up.

I just started playing again and was messing around with my graphics. I realized that my vsync was at "half refresh rate" and I was experiencing the same thing. I changed to "on" and have no more issues.
