  • Oh really, thanks! I think that would keep the tention going on longer, just knowing that eventually they will be captured.

    I always thought it would be the other way around with both of them being captured early on, but I like your approach better.

  • Oh my gosh that poor baby >.<

    Rather than the baby being surrounded, one would imagine that one of the walkers would snatch, raise and devour him; other undead could appr

    Mod PSA:

    EDIT: To clarify, this is driven by us volunteer moderators - not staff. I am open to feedback via PM if you guys wanna give feedback/ask questions.

    [This is also posted on the first page of the thread if you want to read this later...]

    As I'm sure you guys have picked up on in recent posts of ours, we're aiming to improve posting quality in multiple ways. As I'm sure you've noticed, we've added a few more rules of thumb that we are asking people to follow, as well as revising/clarifying previous rules. As we get closer to New Frontier's premiere, I just wanted to be transparent about our direction and give a heads up of where we are going - we are going to try to tackle two issues on the forums.

    1. Negativity on the forums/personal attacks towards Telltale Staff members

    We just want to be upfront - negative criticism is allowed on the forums, should it be expressed constructively. However, do not personally attack Telltale Staff members. Even if you do not see Telltale Staff members posting on the forums, do not personally attack staff members if you do not like how they handled something in an episode you played. Criticism of their work is okay, and you are allowed to have negative opinions - but, express your negative opinions constructively and have logic behind it. During Season 2, people made a bad habit of crapping on the writers personally because they did not like the direction Season 2 went in.

    This is going to change for New Frontier.

    Negative Criticism is allowed and you want to hold things/people you care about to higher standards because you care about them, but keep personal attacks towards Telltale staff out of it. If you have negative criticism, back it up with sound arguments and have a good reason for posting. We don't want a repeat of Season 2, where users perpetuate a constantly negative forum atmosphere. Don't make lazy, pandering posts that whine and bleat on about how awful and tragic it is that Jake Rodkin and Sean Vannaman are not writing Walking Dead games for Telltale anymore. Focus on having constructive discussion and criticism that is grounded on better arguments than personal attacks towards Telltale staff, or complaints about Jake and Sean being gone.

    2. Posting Quality and Etiquette/Better Contributions towards the Community

    During Season 2, the forums changed radically as old fans left and new fans joined at the same time. This extended to the team of active moderators, which at the time, mostly consisted of new moderators. Because our mod tools were in an earlier state, we let things slip during Season 2 that we should not have, and some parts of the forum culture during that time changed for the worse during that time. However, now that we have experience and better mod tools, we want to focus on raising the posting quality here.

    You guys are obviously allowed to have fun and use gifs, pictures, videos, etc to add flavor and personality to your posts, but we don't want people to have a posting style that consistently relies on inside jokes, references to memes and YouTube channels, sarcastic insults, instigating drama with other forum users, etc.

    This forum is not a middle school. It is expected and strongly preferred that Forum Users are 18 or older before posting. This applies only to a small minority of users, but I want to bring this up anyways - we want people to cut down on people posting primarily with memes/inside jokes/etc. Do not casually use insults or slurs related to sexuality, race, religion, disability, etc. For users in the Walking Dead section to be proud of how mature the series is in comparison to other series like Minecraft: Story Mode, we expect users to follow up on that with a mature posting style.

    Also - having a slightly off topic conversation is fine, but don't derail threads with lots of posts that are inside jokes or references to memes/YouTube channels/etc that only a few people would get. Focus first and primarily on making good contributions to the thread at hand.

    This is a message board - not a chat room, so please be considerate of that.

  • I get what you're trying to say man but look if we go by your logic then Javier may never trust anyone at all. Cause like everyone will have some friends or family but that isn't no reason for Javier to stop trusting people. If he can't trust a little girl cause she will give priority to a baby before his family then I can say with 100% certainty that he wouldn't have any friends apart from his family. You get what I'm saying bruh? If what you say was the case then people wouldn't make 'groups' at all!!
    I bet the reason why he can't trust her is something different that telltale doesn't wants us to know just yet.

    The reason why he will never be able to fully trust her is precisely because she has a toddler to look after! Javier might suspect that she

  • I still remember Clem slapping Sarah!!! And now that Clem's a teen she would maybe even have some natural instinct for a bitch slap. xD

    I hope we get to bitch slap people.

  • So you weren't emotionally attached until now?? Man I was all team Clem since twds1e1. I mean how can you not be? She's always been so awesome.

    Clementine could opt for cunning strategy that will appeal differently to Javier, his family, other allies, and antagonists; instead of an i

  • Yea man it looks a lot better than batman ep1. Look for urself on any walkthrough on YouTube. I admit 1st episode was bad but the 2nd one was fucking amazing.( Story wise ) (and a lot better graphically as well).

    Acheive250 posted: »

    So it's not that bad? Maybe I will get it. Does Episode 2 look as good as Telltale's other PS3 games? (TWD, TWAU, TFTBL)

  • Man even if Javier is like the nicest, bravest, coolest etc guy on Earth, I'll still won't consider him an option.

    Acheive250 posted: »

    Yep, I wouldn't even think about it. I'd save Clem in a heartbeat. (I probably would think about it if I end up liking Javier)

  • Lol "no regrets". Haha lmao.

    I, also a huge Clem fanboy, will do everything in my power to make sure Clem is safe, even allowing Javier to die, with no regret.

    thick you bland sniper, i was not in the community for about 1 week base on soo many attacks of other users (i'm back my sister told me about your post). including users like Rynna i feel soo bad for him even now. i hope he comes back soon.

    nonetheless, i'm confused why did you have to machone that 18 years or order is preferred. i only reason why i'm saying something is that one of my family members joined the community sense she was 7 and now going 10. she does not comment in the community that mach if she does. it's usually in Minecraft story mode. or the Sam & Max at times.

    Users are not allowed to have Telltale accounts if they are 12 or under. If you are in the age range of 13 to 18, you are allowed to have an account, but there are some potential restrictions and it is preferred that Forum Users are aged 18 or older, irregardless of a Telltale series' age rating. What I said applies to creating a Telltale website account, and not for playing games. As long as your sister is using the account of anyone aged 13 or older (if I am not mistaken) to play a Telltale game, she should be fine, but you should not make user accounts where personal user information is tied to users aged 12 or under if I understand correctly.

    If you have questions, you can ask Telltale support by Submitting a Request (under "Games", select "Other"). A quicker way to make sure the account is fine would be to replace her email with the email of anyone aged over 13 (you can do so in the profile settings). I assume that if she is 12 or under, that she does not have her own credit card so that should be fine.

    Thread: When do you think A New Frontier will release?


    I am eaier to know! I think 15th or 22nd November.

  • I agree, maybe it also could be the 29th of November. My hope will always be the 1st :D

  • Baby or not, I would instantly lose all respect for anyone that prioritises friends over family, especially on that level. Just my feelings on the matter though.

    I could imagine it go like this: You're playing a s Javier, and say Clem is off fighting walkers or whatever, and left AJ in a "safe" area.

  • I do want her to succeed; don't get me wrong!

    She just hasn't clicked with me emotionally, in contrast to other characters such as Lilly, Jane and Norma. There are some that grow on me and there is nothing I can do to stop it, and Clem is not quite in that category yet.

    So you weren't emotionally attached until now?? Man I was all team Clem since twds1e1. I mean how can you not be? She's always been so awesome.

  • What I am saying is that they care about different people and, inevitably, this means that at some point or another their interests might collide, because they are in the apocalypse. I don't believe that this means they can't forge a friendship or companionship, though.

    I get what you're trying to say man but look if we go by your logic then Javier may never trust anyone at all. Cause like everyone will have

  • Thank you for posting this, Blind Sniper. I've seen a few posts where users have been extremely rude to Telltale staff. It's appalling, and it shouldn't be tolerated in my opinion. :/ The staff can't even post on their own forum because they fear being torn apart by the users on here, which is pretty sad. How the Telltale staff is treated makes me ashamed to be part of this community at times honestly. :| Hopefully with you mods cracking down things will get to a happier place for everyone.

    If you go on amazon and write The Walking Dead: A New Frontier, it will tell you the exact date.

  • It's probably 1 month to Adventures Clem and Javi ^_^

  • Didn't Telltale say at their panel that we can expect news for Season 3 "very very very soon"?

    Maybe in 1-2 weeks? I hope we get it soon.

  • Unless there are any delays as was the case with Michonne Episode 1 (and there is no reason to think so, so far), we do get the game next month, so perhaps we will get news towards the end of October.

    Well, I actually haven't played it on the PS3 (I haven't played it at all) because I've seen screen shots and it looks terrible.

  • I am going to ask this late but will s1 and s2 choices have any part/memory in s3? I thought I read somewhere that past choices will not be in s3 so I dont know.

  • Yes, yes they most certainly will, don't worry!

    Yes, yes they most certainly will, don't worry!

  • I wasn't saying it was a bad game, I said "It looks terrible".

    And I was just asking because I wasn't sure whether to get the PS3 version now, or wait until I get a PS4 and get that version.
    I don't mind if the graphics aren't fantastic, as longs as it runs fine.

    Wow. judging a game simply on visual.

  • Let us be the ones to be concerned about that. Besides, Walking Dead has its fair share of younger and immature users too.

  • May I ask why the N-word is the only slur with a form of censorship?

    That word in particular is a touchy subject, for obvious reasons. It's easily abused by people, and arguably riles people up a lot more than other words.

  • This has probably been posted a hundred times already, but when will we know if we can transfer choices from Xbox 360 to PS4, and other devices as well? When are Telltale gonna talk about the cloud save, it's soon November.
