    sorry ok you have to use the wrench that you propped the door open with and you have to be quick after you grab it hit the closest one and don't forget to push the button it tells you too if that still dosnt work just replay that chapter

    I don't get past this. I'm playing on a PC. When I arrive at the door both the grab symbol and the look symbol show up, but I only can look at the tool and not grab it. When I look, I get eaten. Makes no difference if I punch one of them first or not. Any help, please? Also watched the walkthrough video someone posted here, but in this video only one icon shows up.

    edit: actually in the video there are also two icons, but the grab icon is the selected one, while in my case it's the look icon.

    edit2: I really wished there was a skip button in those annoying action sequences. Don't want to watch the introduction video over and over again.

    You can "scroll" and then access the "misplaced hand" and then kick the zombies ass. :D

    I'm not actually, and I had the same problem.
    Since when can you scroll through an action crosshair cursor?!

    I'm not sure, but I think this is how I did it: move backwards towards the door, punch the right walker in the face after a few steps and when you reach the door the cursor should show you two options. Choose the hand symbol.

    Well, yeah, it did work. I'm just saying that I can't remember to have ever scrolled through several options while there was an "action cursor"..

    I stuck finding the suspicious Duck who probably broke the flashlight. Just walking around, but do not know where he is and cannot ask anybody...

    PC version also. Doesn't work for me. I punch the right walker in the face while hitting "W." Then I got two icons to choose from when I'm looking at the wrench lodged in the door. The icon defaults to the look icon. I've tried middle mouse button and also the scroll wheel to select the hand but neither allow me to select it.

    Having to watch that cut scene over and over every time I have to restart that checkpoint is really annoying.

    I have played this episode at the train station 100 times, I have all the dialog down until the two walkers tag team me. I have done it every kind of way, if anyone on a PC has gotten thru this and knows a trick please let me know. Ive stepped back a few and punched L then R one, Ive stepped back (using W key) the entire way, Ive done it all...Thank You

    What I did was just hold down W until you back up all the way, put the cursor over the wrench, use the mouse wheel to get the hand, grab it and go to town on the walkers :) I found that hitting them just slowed you down and didn't really make a difference

    I'm on a PC, and I've tried this at least 50 times and I just can't figure out how to select the wrench item. As others have said, it defaults to the Look option, and I can't figure out how to scroll to the grab option. Because you only have literally half a second or so to try to figure it out (IF you managed to time the Ws and punches correctly), you only have an instant to troubleshoot the one of hundreds of different of possible key/mouse combinations before you have to repeat the whole thing all over again. There simply isn't any practical way to get by this.

    It's a shame because I LOVE this Episode up until now (seriously - AWESOME writing), but now I'm stuck, and it's on some basic issue having to do with controllers and a lack of clear instructions. (Or possibly, they simply didn't test this part sufficiently for PCs, and it's a true bug they'll have to patch.)

    Anybody from the company reading these forums who can provide assistance?

    Thanks.

    Same here I have tried this at least 60 times. The PC commands are not clear at all and there is a LOT of lag time between when the cursor shows up on an action. In this sequence where it is obviously so fast paced, this is even worse. I really would like to be able to skip this. Not all of us are using game controllers and whoever thought this would be keyboard/mouse intuitive was seriously wrong.

    Don't punch the walker in the face right at the beginning: walk some steps backwards and then hit him or try to move all the way back wihtout punching him at all (don't know if this works too, 'cause I didn't try it). While moving backwards you already put the cursor over the tool under the door, which gives you a little more time to react when the second icon appears around the cursor. As soon as it appears, select the hand symbol (the mouse wheel worked for me). Maybe you have to wait until you arrive at the door before you actually CLICK on the tool, but make sure that you SELECT the hand symbol as soon as possible.

    Select the tool symbol by...clicking #2? Is that the easiest way? Im not using mouse.

    I had the same problem on my PC. I don't think who you punch or how many times makes a difference... I punched each one twice, while continuing to back up with 'W'. Once in range to select the wrench, the default action when clicking on it was 'Look'. Use the scroll wheel, or whatever you have configured for that action, when you are focused on the wrench, and you will highlight the hand icon, which will get you to where you need to be.

    Press W like the message at the top left says, you can punch the two zombies while continuing to press W near the wrench or whatever you have to as the door stop. Once you see the Hand icon choose it (use your middle mouse wheel if it is your scroll button to scroll from the eye selection to the hand selection and go from there)

    If you don't have the middle mouse button ( or mouse wheel as a scroll ) It's 1 2 3 4 on your keyboard.

    I have tried over and over.. I cannot select it, sometimes it lets me look at it haha. I'm going to try again and try using the scroll button on the mouse but I don't even remember seeing 2 icons. I wish I could skip this part I am sick of it already!

    So what do you do when you check everything, talk to the girl, and still there's nothing to do to get inside?

    What, you mean get inside the train station? Look at the window above the door. Then talk to Clementine to boost her up the window.
