  • Fantastic!

    CrazedRabbit and IronWoodLover already said it. It would be incredible to organize a forum Crowd Play for Season Three sometime close after its release. Hopefully it's not something that will remain in the air as an unaccomplished idea.

    I suppose that the dialogue and decision timer will not appear in Crowd Play, though. Some people have bad internet connection, and they could miss being part of a decision multiple times.

  • This sounds like a good idea, the only issue I might see people have a problem with is that the leader can override other players choices.

  • man you thought i was talking to myself lol

    I don't look at names and just thought this was a guy talking to himself.

    Well actually there are two modes according to Telltale's blog post.

    ...and a crowd control mode where the audience will always overtake the decisions of the player by following the majority choices.

    What I'd be worried about is this

    While there is some potential for streamers to use Crowd Play, common network latency issues may prevent the best experience. Until latency becomes less of an issue, the use of Crowd Play with live streaming services such as Twitch, or YouTube Live is not recommended.

    This sounds like a good idea, the only issue I might see people have a problem with is that the leader can override other players choices.

  • So no forum Crowd Play?

    Please, dojo32161, tell me that it will be okay.

  • I would love that! (As I don't have many friends who would like to get together and go through a Telltale game), but it might not work because, yeah, people's internet... sigh

    Unfortunately there is a latency problem with Twitch streams, i just checked the video stats of a random Twitch stream and it shows a 15 second delay which could cause problems with choices sowing on devices before you see them on screen.

    It could still work if you've played the game already and know what the choices are but it might be confusing for new viewers.

  • I rather TTG to finish all the episodes before the release.

    Edit: Wait, they would still realease them like, once every a few months, instead of all episodes being released at the same time, right?

  • Well it kinda ruins their ideal of being like a Tv show.

    Also you'd just have to wait even longer.

  • Well, do you know if the YouTube Gaming streams are better? That's another alternative.

  • They released the walking dead michonne episodes monthly, they could start releasing them like this for the walking dead season 3 and batman, i guess

  • Ign did an interview with Melissa and Job and I forgot who else. Nothing new sadly.

    I think most streaming services are about the same, the reason for the delays is that the footage needs up be uploaded to the streaming servers and then downloaded back to the users PC and internet speed from both the uploader and downloader can also cause delays.

    They have now updated the news article about it to say "Local Multiplayer Option Coming to Telltale" instead if just "Multiplayer" but they have posted that they are working with streaming services to find a solution.

    We are working closely with all the streaming services to address this problem, but it certainly won’t be ideal for streaming out of the box. For now, everyone needs to be in the same room, watching the same screen.

    I think it's worth trying to do live stream crowd play just to see whats it's like but like i mentioned the choices will appear on devices before we see them on the stream which could be problematic.

    I think some people on the TWD forums might be unaware of this, but Batman The Telltale Series will have a multiplayer feature! I know, it m

  • Clementine: Feeds an applesauce to AJ.

    Kenny: He's been growing, ain't he?

    Clementine: I think so. Yeah. We're gonna have to go looking for some more clothes for him soon!

    Kenny: There's a retail store that I got the look on earlier when I went hunting. Might be a good idea when the time comes. What do you say, Clem? Maybe find a different style of cap?

    Device: [PUT KENNY OUT OF HIS MISERY]

  • If it wasn't against the rules, I would go create an account called @Clementine'sPetHamster and comment stupid but on-topic stuff in the active threads.

    Woke up with that feeling today.

    So canned/sealed commercial foods have an average shelf life of 2-5 years. It has been 5 years in the apocalypses so now canned foods - with the exception of some - will be no good anymore. Just a thought.

  • ok...?

  • My comment was so strange that it needed two replies.

    ok...?

  • This was brought up in the comics at one point!

    Indeed, canned and dehydrated food lasts about five years maximum. This is when it is good to be in a community with stable agriculture and livestock.

    Actually from what I just checked up, canned food can last a really long time. It might not taste as good as when fresh, but you can still eat it. Take a look:

    Lol yeah you have a point. Some food will still be good but others, if not most would have expired by now to the point where you will get sick if you ate it.

    Javier: But you'll miss the fun.

    Clem: What fun?
