New stats?You and 51.5% of players DIDN'T shoot K****

edited December 2014 in The Walking Dead

Hey,ya all.Let me get straight to the point.I was watching the highlights of a twich streamer and i saw him playing TWD s2e5 in 11december.The stats after the episode were different than the one we got on the pc version(which haven't been updated since 28august).So,here's my question;Does every platform have different statitics?He was playing on xbox one.

  • That's probably because people are going through 2nd, 3rd, and 4th (etc.) play .throughs at this point, and most aren't falling for Jane's bullshit the second time around.

  • A lot of the stats are messed up, but yes those are the correct ones

  • Console stats are split even on most of choices, heck more people killed Ben on console.

    Am I the only one that never understood how these stats work?

    At times I've seen the same stats across all platforms, other times you have one stat on PC and not the rest, another time one stat for PS3 and not the rest, and the addition of the xbone and ps4 made it all the more confusing.

    Sometimes I see stats that I saw on release day, which then change a week later (obviously). Then someone plays it 2 weeks later, and it's showing the stats from release day again. How the hell do they work?

    Are they all synced to one central server? Are they all synced to a separate server for each platform? Do they just do whatever they feel like?

  • Huh? I play on console, it shows more people saved Ben instead of killing him.

    Console stats are split even on most of choices, heck more people killed Ben on console.

  • I guess Xbox and PS4 have 2 different stats. Cant recall which had 45% saved Ben

  • For real? I just replayed this a few weeks ago, and it only said 30%-ish didn't shoot Kenny.

  • That's only because people are replaying to get the "better" ending.

    Generally, the results are the most accurate a bit after the game come out.

    This. Best bet for first playthroughs is the second time it is updated (about a week after), which puts plays who shoot Kenny at 70%.

    Also there're pretty severe spoilers in your title OP. Might want to rectify that.

  • These updated stats are likely the result of copious new first-time playthroughs rather than simply thousands of replays as you're suggesting. It'd be pretty stupid if these statistics were altered by replays, and even if they were, I highly doubt such a large percentage of players would've chosen to amend their choices.

  • The stats were showing that 70% of people shot kenny at 28 august which is 2 days after the release date,not a week.So,I guess 51.5% of the people who played after 28august didn't shoot Kenny.I changed the title,thanks for the advice.

    Who approaches an RPG on their second playthrough saying 'I'm going in with the exact same mindset'? Maybe that's very popular. Seems boring to me.

  • Well, that confirms 70% the hardcore fans shot Kenny I suppose.

    And the title isn't really better is it. Like there's no other character in season 2 whose name begins with K.

    So,by your logic:The people who played the episode in the first 3 days are all hardcore Kenny fans?It sounds more possible to me that the people who played the episode after 29august are kenny fans since 70% of the people who played it in the first 3 days shot him.

  • Very unlikely to be that many new first playthroughs: telltale's only form of advertising is posting around the relese date and buying advertising spots on xbox and PS on and around the release.

    Most business also comes from people who have bough episodes before episode 5 came out and they'd probably ply the next chapter as soon as they can.

    Also a fluctuation of 20% is extremely unlikely to be THAT coincidental that so many kenny fans delayed their playthrough. Repeat playthroughs must have been involved to some significant degree.

  • I suppose that's a possibility. Personally I've only played season 2 the one time, but whenever I replay season 1 I only change a few things around, and stick to my guns on everything else. For example, I've NEVER dropped Ben or mistreated Clementine, but I might change up who I feed in episode 2 and who I side with between Kenny and Lilly. If I ever want to see the results of a "scumbag" play through I just catch it on Youtube.

  • Ok. Everyone I know personally changes things up to see the results of different choices.

  • No, they were mainly HARDCORE fans, not Kenny fans specifically. I never said that?

    Most of the hardcore kenny fans, though, WOULD have played the game within the first few days.

    You are aware that 30% didn't shoot him? Those were the Kenny fans. They were playing the game then obviously.

  • Smart people wait until all the episodes are out.

  • Ok,ok.So 70% of the hardcore kenny fans shot him while the people who played the episode later and weren't specifically hardcore Kenny fans chose not to shoot him?Good enough.

  • It's most likely because people wanted to see the other endings, not everyone is going to play the game again straight after completion so it seems like allot of people are doing multiple runs, I had 2 saves that saved Kenny for the Kenny ending and the Wellington ending, too bad there weren't more save slots :x but to answer your question, yes, each platform does have different statistics as it only accumulates data from the specific platform, well it seems that way but it would've made more sense if it was a larger scale if decisions from all consoles were accounted for, although that may be a little difficult to implement :3

  • So... you're not intelligent if you decide to play each episode as soon as it comes out?

    Smart people wait until all the episodes are out.

  • But it's less fun knowing what will happen and when people know the circumstances and consequences they have tendencies to play the game differently from how they originally would have.

    Smart people wait until all the episodes are out.

  • Yeah, but that's according to Clem_is_awesome. The same person who thinks Kenny is the "only right choice."

    Probably also wears a tin foil hat and thinks Martians and the government will steal his brain.

    Kenny in general. Multiple sighs.

  • Lmao, same here. I've made a few different choices in my playthroughs of TWD, but I usually go with the same ones.

    Doesn't that make not only me an idiot, but you one too since we've both been in TWD S2 Waiting Threads and played the episodes as they released?

  • Wouldn't seem real if you make the 'correct' choices knowing what's going to happen next.

    It's not the 'correct' choice though even if you know Jane is lying.

    That depends on Clem's opinion of the situation: on one hand Jane lied, on the other she proved herself right about Kenny.

  • If you make choices knowing what is going to happen (unless you figure it out by just with your brain on your 1st playthrough), they shouldn't count and those are not your choices anyway, your choices are the ones that you make on the heat of the moment, when you don't know what's coming.

  • I ended up in Wellington my first (and only)play through. Jane's "stay out of it" line, as well as her mannerisms throughout the fight had me thinking that she was pulling something shady. The way I saw things: she wanted that shit storm to play out so I let it.

  • Yeah, I was pretty stupid for picking Kenny as the ending. Heh, lucky I rewinded it.
