    Better to wait for everything to be released and on sale as to bring a financial slap to the face.. This is totally unacceptable behavior. They are not professional enough to handle multiple releases.. Case and point .. TWAU being delayed with no word from the staff accept to repeat coming soon over and over again and increasing the time between their "coming soons"

    They are not big enough to even apologize and say.. You know what guys.. We effed up.. We will try and do better for the coming releases..

    I mean.. They don't give any information at all! Why there is a delay.. They won't even say the word delay, even though at this point it is obvious.. I'd like to see IGN interview these guys.. And watch them weave and dodge around the questions like a politician.. Nice word play.. But we are smart enough to see through it!

    I've long since forgotten how the episodes made me feel.. To long a gap for too little of playtime.

    Heck.. Do you realize it will be 20 months since The walking dead released it's first episode!?? Good lord! .. IT IS ONLY 3 HRS EACH PEOPLE! This is a business your running here.. Seriously.. To lazy to even say sorry to people who put forth the money to buy the season's pass.. Do we get our buyer's faith rewarded? No.. Just coming soon.. week later.. Update on an update for tomorrow which basically says.. Cya next year! That is it for 2 months.. Won't even go into what they are doing.. Yeah.. Best to wait for full release and when it is on sale.. Course I know some people that won't even do that cause they are so angry.. Just go about it another way..

    I'm not getting suckered into paying up front again. For now on I am waiting until each game series is done or at least a couple of episodes in.

  • I know someone who asked for a refund a while ago and hasn't gotten word 1 from them.. Lols..

    I dare people to ask for refunds.. Prly won't get it.

  • Best for consoles is to buy when episode 2 is announced and the season pass the day before episode 2 is released.

  • It was the first time I was actually interested enough in a Telltale game to actually buy it upfront. I am quite disapointed in the experience. Obviously, they are having trouble with everything on their plate, and probably should either dial it down, hire new people or even stop using the episodic format, because currently, it's not working at all.

    Agreed. Hire new, more capable people. Rethink how to treat your customers by keeping them informed. And list realistic ETA's on release. Something more concrete! Outside of that.. The only other alternative Would have to be, that they move away from episodic format.. Cause if they make people wait too long between releases.. It moves past giving us time to discuss it, and into angry towards delays.. Thus forgetting how it made us feel in the first place, when we played it.

    Apparently the majority feel this way, cause I've seen nothing but everyone saying the same thing over and over again.. With a few hold-outs still supporting Telltale's way of doing things.. Which leads me to believe half of them are probably just staff.. There are so few that are not angry about what has happened in some way or another.

    Ok so I rather not go thru all these pages just to find out what this info was, was it honestly a update on when the next UPDATE will be coming and osmething about the release date?

  • Just kidding man, i don´t really believe in it, but i we need something to discuss about to kill the time :p

    Vainamoinen posted: »

    What an interesting theory. People on the forum guessed the killer right, so Telltale rewrote the entire series to change te killer, hence taking double the time for the episode. Errrr... noooooo. But, nice.

    Update and new screens for Episode 2 just went up on the blog.

  • Please take some additional time on a more comprehensive "Previously on TWAU":(
    This is a major letdown. Poor communication combined with sales already after the release of one episode or none at all if you take TWD2 into account.
    Just talk to us, keep the people informed. It's not hard and it pays off. Don't be EA.

  • I'm pretty fine with the delay, actually. TWAU isn't the only thing on my plate. TWD S2 is coming, plus I'm playing Super Mario 3D Land, Wind Waker HD, and going to start A Link Between Worlds pretty soon. There's plenty of other stuff out there, considering its near Christmas, AKA the time video game companies release quite a few games.

    Plus, we don't even know exactly what happened. There could've been a hacking, a massive file deletion, even a death. We really shouldn't be badgering on Tell-Tale until we know the full story. And if they don't want to tell us, that's their prerogative

  • Journal Entry 4:

    Hope and patience has made a valuable ally in search of episode 2. The end is in sight now. All I need to do now is wait and I shall reap my reward. Although the night will be the hardest part before release. If even a second longer of waiting our humble little community could explode into chaos.

    The screenshot has me very much excited.

    I think I have earned a short rest until Episode 3.

  • Well while I like to support them I do hate this, I wish I could get my $20 back I'd still buy it but the wait wouldn't be so hard.
    I know I know I'm bitching about delays n updates or lack there of but this is getting to be nuts, they need to get their release times
    Down correctly. Even say if they were a small scale company at least they can get their releases pinned down pretty well.

    I won't be buying anymore season passes from them at full price anymore.
    I started on their games since TWD but that's after it was all out so I might be very impatient but fuck man, how long for TwD s2 and all those delays n how long for TWAU Ep2 already? Pretty long waits so far..

    There is no update. The update is "some guys appearing in this episode and we will tell your more after the holidays". For them to call that a

  • Lol I love how u put on the Duke Newkom Forecer being delayed for 15 years n polished n bug free game in the same sentence.
    It's so stupid example via the game u named took 15 bfreaken years n it was a bugged filled, glitch feat of a game, who is to say this wont be the same even if we gave TT 30 years... See my point?

    So much hate against Telltale here ! Sounds like you guys would actually lynch them and rape their kids ! We're talking about only a few mo

  • I have to be honest, i loved the game when i first got my season pass on psn, but the level of shoddy customer service has me fuming, we have had pretty poor coms as to why ep2 is taking so long, we get a frankly daft pre announcement yesterday, getting everybodys hopes up, then what do we get today? We get pretty much blown off, so we wont hear squat till maybe the 2nd week of jan, this is garbage, i feel like i have been conned and i really want a refund but i guess there's fat chance of that, not while TTG are bloody profiting off us people who in good faith purchased a product seeming TTG can't produce :(

  • I honestly don't care about the wait. I have TWD Season 2 to keep me excited through the holidays. And if and when TWAU episode 2 comes out next year(probably January), I'm going to be excited to play that to. Sure the wait can get annoying sometimes, but its better to wait 2-3 months for a high-quality game, than 4-6 weeks for an average, glitchy, one.

  • I don't get why people assume a longer the game tales to produce the less glitches n bugs it will have. You do see that that doesn't hardly matter right? I mean ya if the started a game (ep) n it took a week or something to finish from start to end but that's not the case here.

    Lol.. Yeah.. It must have taken them a lot of time to press print screen on the keyboard and edit paste it in paint..

    I don't know if I would of had the energy to 'save as' jpeg and upload it.. Now that's customer service!

    And they TOTALLY answered all of my questions and concerns with yet another vague ETA about another ETA a month from now..

  • Come on, now! We learned that the strip club is named Pudding and Pie, which means that the pimp is probably Georgie Peorgie! Okay, we knew that already from the teaser at the end of episode 1, but...Hey, look, a topless woman! Bet you didn't think we'd see those!...Except we did in the teaser.

    Well, uh...Hey, Bigby's going to be in Episode 2! Did you know that? I sure didn't. Or, hey, maybe that's not even Bigby! Maybe it's just a person with a similar build and clothes! Telltale, you sure know how to keep us guessing!

    Guys, just an update from the (voluntary) mod squad here, because the last thing we want is to suggest censorship on this forum.

    We're getting a lot of new members this weekend who are making entire new threads about the release date and lack of communication. We usually would have merged these threads into the release date thread to preserve these statements, but unfortunately the new forum's present tools do not allow merging the first post of a new thread into another.

    To keep discussion about the game and not its release schedule possible, and to not let the entire forum overflow with negativity and - certainly justified! - anger, we will have to close these threads.

    I'd like to add that I am often impressed with the calm and reasoning of these new threads and new and old members. I do not only respect these opinions, I share a lot of them as well.

  • Closing them is understandable. As you say.. To keep the forums from filling up with "justified anger and negativity"

    I don't think you have to worry about censorship, you only closed them. :) People can still read if so inclined.

    Maybe post a sticky or something to advertise that the rest of the forums outside of this topic be for game "play" discussion only?

    The worst thing is that we have no guarantee that the game will be released in January.I mean,they said they were going to give us other updates but not a release date.It could very well be another "coming soon" or new screenshots.What if they get another delay? We could have to wait until February.After that,nothing will surprise me anymore.Looking back,it's as if episode one was just a demo and the actual game wasn't ready yet.I would have preferred them to finish the work on all episodes before releasing the first one.And most importantly,I would like them to tell us what caused this delay.I believe that as customers it is our right to know about it.

  • This is no hate,this is disappointment.Why would the fact that we want to know what happened be of any disrespect to Telltale.As a community I think that we not only have the right but also we should let them know about what is wrong .If we don't tell them,it will never change.Hopefully,now that they've seen how disappointed many of us are,they will do what they can to improve the release schedule for other episodes and other games.

  • if you dont wanna see negative feedback, you'd better bring some offical faces to the forums. All we hear is "coming soon", "update is near", "we're working hard". That's bullshit. As result we got only few cheap screenshots. And since we already paid for the whole games, TT doesnt have stimulus to do their job quick and in time, so our impatience should be understandable.
