    I like the title "A New Frontier", but "The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series - A New Frontier" is overly verbose and a bit of a mouthful. Why not just "The Walking Dead: A New Frontier (The Telltale Series)". I get that they probably think they might confuse a small minority of people into thinking that "The Walking Dead: A New Frontier" was a whole franchise as opposed to a subtitle, but it doesn't exactly slide off the toungue this way.

    It works for Batman because Batman does not have a subtitle, but here, it comes off kinda awkward and clunky, and I hope they shuffle it around.

    I know I'm being nitpicky, but it's just a minor pet peeve. However, as I said, "A New Frontier" otherwise sounds like a cool title! :p

    "The Walking Dead - A New Frontier: The Telltale Series" (or TWD - A New Frontier: A Telltale Series) sounds so much better than the current title.

    Good night

  • Just read fan summary. I have a feeling the whole "new beginning" thing is just an excuse to write Kenny or Jane out of the series with little or no kind of in story explanation. The Michonne game was below required standards imo and now we hear that more comic book characters will be introduced. This is a worry for me. This new guy sounds more and more like Luke 2.0 judging by what the writers are saying about him. This is most definitely not a good thing.

  • Are you sure you did

    I'm not sure I heard you the other 50 times

    still you didn't get the point which i said above changing the name don't change the story its a reboot for lee in Javier character read the summary and understand it just to throw new people into the game but clem's story will continue normally Javier is just a way for accessing the series

  • I hope we can hug javi like we hugged luke! ^-^ <3

    i am late hearing the news but i am reacting now.

    enter image description here

    i am curious about the title of the 3rd series. it sounds like a reference to a journey, so i am wounding the 3rd series would be the last series of the wdg series fans were wondering about it was announced that sweet Clem would be in series 3

  • Judging by some of the reactions so far, I guess the saying is true; no news is good news.

  • Cool... A new title and release month. More than what u expected they'd tell.. OSM! Gives the chills...
    Walking Dead: Make America Gr...
    O wait

    Thats us and walking dead 3, in a nutshell

  • Telltale fans: WE WANT NEWS NOW!!!!!
    news comes out
    Telltale fans: THIS NEWS SUCKS! S1 WAS BETTER!

  • They have a save file configuration system for Season 3 for players playing across different platforms

    Will that be just for Season 3 or are they talking season 1 and season 2 save will be available across platforms? I've been plyaing on PC but I do'nt think my PC will handle it (it's a laptop), so I'm on PS4 now, would be great if i didn't have to do season 1 and 2 again !

  • Where do i watch the streamnow?

  • I like a New Frontier but yeah, why have "The Telltale Series" in front of it? Your version of "The Walking Dead - A New Frontier: The Telltale Series" is fine, but personally I prefer "A Telltale Games Series" rather than just "The Telltale Series"

  • "A Telltale Games Series" rather than just "The Telltale Series"

    That's their new naming scheme for all future Telltale games.

  • What I think they mean by "a new beginning" is Javier.

    Clementine is our source for our continual of Season One and Two, all our decisions, and the people we've made, the relationships we've had, have revolved around her.

    Javier is a fresh face, he's something that can give a bit more of a fresh feel so it's not just "Season Two: 2" where we play as Clementine in a world gone mad.

  • Alright, well based on the news that everyone is talking about, I'm glad I went to sleep.

  • A New Frontier huh? Mmk I'll bite. I wonder what this will mean when applying it to the story? Perhaps fighting back against zombies and bandits to make a better future.

  • A NEW FRONTIER!

    BEAM ME UP, JAVI!

  • From my perspective, "A New Frontier" means that in a land where only walkers inhabited aimlessly during the first years of the apocalypse now lies a cluster of communities that are attempting to rebuild society for better or worse. One of this communities would be an antagonistic farming settlement, though I'm not gonna say its name so that people don't hate me any more than necessary.

    Please read: Quality of Posting

    The community is more engaging to participate in if users focus on having quality discussions instead of focusing more on posting ironic jokes, memes, etc. Jokes/memes/gifs/etc are fine in normal amounts, but for the most part, please make an effort to first and foremost have genuine and quality discussion.

    • It is preferred that you mainly communicate with your own comments, opinions, and discussions instead of letting jokes/memes/videos/gifs/pictures do the talking for you. It is frowned upon when a user's posting history contains more gifs/memes/videos/etc or ironic comments and jokes than there are actual attempts at quality discussion.

    • Please refrain from low effort posting. Low effort posting consists of frequently making posts that mostly consist of meme responses, ironic comments, or comments that jokingly insult other users in ways that would otherwise be offensive to strangers.

    A new frontier? What does that even mean? A new voyage? I immediately though a bout Alice though the looking Glass.... ............. [Mod edit: Removed insults to Telltale Staff]

  • Uh? Will our choces in the Michonne MiniSeries have an impact in the third season?!

    *maybe (see also: TWD Michonne)

  • You got it, boss!

    Clem and Javier vs The Moo Moo Cow Farm of Doom

  • Michonne didn't have a confirm date, nor to did it feature a teaser trailer, or any actual screenshots until it was announced for February. so obviously something was up. With Walking dead we have a Teaser trailer, and several screenshots. Its most definitely releasing in November.

    *maybe (see also: TWD Michonne)

  • Hopefully it's not walking dead a telltale game a bad choice

  • "We will learn more about Clementine's past through Javier" So the endings don't matter other than some dialogue? Wonderful! Hopefully this isn't the case and they will actually show flashbacks, if Kenny and Jane died in the time skip I want to see how it happened and how it all played out.

  • Not the biggest fan of the name. Sounds more like the name of a Star Trek episode than it does another installment of the Walking Dead. Still hyped for the game though.

    i really hope that the writing will be on point compare the writing in s2. every time i play s1 the story telling and the fact that your choices feel like they matter repeatedly hits me in the face. i want the writing and character's deaths matter. in s1 it feels like your choices do impact the characters. e.g like if you try to save Larry then Lilly will be on better terms with Lee compare to the option if your the one who kills Larry. also if try to save Ben in the church tower it leads Kenny sacrificing himself in the alleyway.

    Oh, so you played it then? What do you think about the first episode?

  • edited September 2016

    You act like you know exactly what happens.

  • Sounds like I didnt really miss anything

  • But the fact that it isn't named Season 3 doesn't mean that they are seperating it from previous seasons. They already implied that there would be flashbacks, probably triggered during conversations between Clem and Javier. Season 3 is not in the title for the same reason why Episode VII isn't in the promotional materials of The Force Awakens.

  • Sorry it's a bit late but here is the panel for anyone who missed it or wants to watch it again.
