So people are going to get anal about the fact a video game (games being renowned for getting pushed back) Takes 6 weeks to release an episode?
I want to carry on like the next man. But my god get some perspective
Work on an upcoming game or port. There is usually more than one game in development at once, even if it's just in the early stages of working out production schedules and the like.
I cant remember the last time I heard of a game being released early. Lets face it the further along in episodes the longer its going to take to develop. There winds up being thousands of choices that they have to write for which is going to translate to long delays. I dont think they realized what they were getting into when in talks about writing and developing this game series. Literally thousands of different story lines have to be written and produced in the last couple episodes which is a giant undertaking especially for a smaller company like TTG.

ep2 showed not every choice was being used so, ttg can simply stick with the pro kenny or pro larry/lilly anti ducks pro clem and doug/carly
so now we have to add to them steal from car? and clem has a hoodie ?
then theres killing the stjohns?
yeh i reckon ep4 and ep5 will be delayed once ep3 is done and we have new members
Did anyone notice that one of the producers voted for Fri August 31?
Just noticed that, maybe that is a sign that it might be the 31st of August. I hope it earlier but right now I am just sitting tight like everyone else.
Strictly speaking, TG didn't say when the third episode will be released. They wrote in their blog that it "will be ready in the middle of August" and that they will try to "release all platforms and regions as close together as possible". I think it takes some time to release an episode after finishing it.
More like a zombie head by Lee's axe - his aim is perpetually off. Your comparison makes the further delay pretty inevitable... I think mid-August is still where we're going.
I think EP3 is in the testing phase now, this was posted on the TTG Facebook page
Know anyone in the Bay Area of CA who'd like to play test our upcoming games next weekend? Email playtest@telltalegames.com for more info! We're looking for a variety of experienced AND inexperienced players - so no familiarity with our games will be necessary. We'd love to have you by our office. Spaces are limited!
Who knows we might have it by mid-August after all like I read somewhere.
Does anyone know if they have decided on a release date for Episode 3? I bought the game yesterday and was instantly hooked. Let me know something people!
That should definitely read ready to play. But the simultaneous release attempt could crack the date, indeed.
Do they not proof read? There seems to be a lot of errors in communication simply because they typed the wrong character name in or forgot a few words.
Episode 2 was nothing short of awesome. It's definitely frustrating to have delays, but I'd rather wait longer and get top quality, then have them ship early because people scream and get poor quality. It's easier to apologize for a late release, then for an early let down.

peace out
so much for the middle of august
Huh. The only date no one voted yet is my mother's 60th birthday.
"Plan" is an interesting variable when you're dealing with such small development timeframes.
More likely it's a dev who isn't involved with making this game.

Well them's the brakes. Any other way and they risk the beta build being leaked to the public.

I'm guessing august 21st.
