How to NOT bring Omid and Christa with you
So how do you get them to not insist on coming with you? I've heard if you hide the bite then they won't, but doesn't sound like it's the only choice that matters, but I can't really think of another time that would help or not help them supporting you. I guess right at the start you can agree that Omid needs a rest, and later on that you need to make sure Omid gets his meds, but none of those seem like major choices.
Anyway what I'm looking for is what choices/dialogue options did the people who didn't have them insist on joining you make?

Thanks for the tip but what other factors? Would I have to be completely anti-Omid to go without them? Cause I don't think I can do that.. Omid's to awesome..
Did you hide the bite? If you show it, they'll pretty much come with you no matter what.
Why does this pair, that told me they like to stay alone, seem to want to stick by me to the point of risking their lives to help out? They don't even trust us enough to tell us that Christa is pregnant yet they are going to put their lives on the line? What makes my group so much more worthwhile then their previous experiences? Makes no sense to me.
In the end though. I really wish Kat and Carley had stayed alive and these two had never shown up. People say, the Carley/Doug thing had to be put down but Omid has such a small role that we could have easily put Carley/Doug into it and if a pregnant woman angle is so darn important, just make Kat pregnant. Voila. This episode really shows how totally needless their deaths were.
I hate episode 3. >.<
That didn't happen in my playthrough. How does that happen?
I did a Pro-Kenny playthrough as well but i got the exact opposite result. I said i need to do this alone and Kenny said he won't let me do such a thing, and he's certain Omid and Christa feel the same. Then they immediately said they will not be joining me. Kenny must have felt like an idiot there.
I think the final decision in episode 3 plays the largest part in influencing whether they'll join you. Followed by that, bringing Clem with you to Crawford(which i didn't expect to have any influence), disagreeing with Christa when she asks to stop so Omid can rest, and disagreeing with her again when she says she's not sure if Omid is feeling well enough to leave the mansion.
I think those are most of the influences but I'm not sure. They seem like the ones that would have the biggest impact. Why else would the last major decision in ep 3 be "help Omid or don't help Omid"?
* Did not welcome or be nice to them in EP3
* Pushed Christa to reveal what they were talking about earlier
* Gave the least reassuring responses to Christa about taking care of Clem
* Pushed Omid
* Saved Christa
* Sided with Kenny to keep moving
* Sided with Kenny over Christa on the Walkie-man's intentions
* Never talked to Omid or Christa afterwards
* Took Clem to Crawford
* Didn't talk to Christa at Crawford
* Voted for Ben to stay after Christa didn't want him to (Had to tell Clem she couldn't vote first)
And after all of this they STILL refused to let me go alone after revealing the bite. Does anyone know if there is any dialogue in the game's files about them not coming when showing the bite? I'm out of options haha.
I think if you reveal the bite, they come no matter what. I did a lot of what you did but offered to carry Omid, and they let me go without them since they didn't know I was bitten. Christa even says in the attic she would have come if she knew Lee was bitten, so I don't think you can get rid of them if they know about the bite.
Bringing Clementine actually helps, because Christa thinks it a better idea to be by Lee's side. And I have done both combinations of grabbing Omid or Christa first, they really don't seem to care past ep 3.
And might I just say woop woop, telltale member^
I think one of the only ways of going alone would be hiding your bite. I can't think of any other way than being a complete dick to them, something they don't completely deserve. They live longer than you, so treat them nicely lol
That's right. They will always go with you if you reveal bite, and not revealing it causes unnecessary stress.
They say "We are all responsible for Clementine, and in your condition, who knows if you'll make it to her in time. We'll get her, no matter what Lee" or something along those lines, meaning you can't sway them.
"This is something i have to do alone."
"Lee, we're a team. This is how we've made it this far. We're not going to just abandon you."
"Damn right."
Sometimes i wonder if i should be ashamed that i know most of the game's lines by heart.
No man, not at all. They're great lines.
No, you shouldn't be. The game is that awesome.
And there's so many of them!
I recently stumbled upon this exchange after you tell Andy St. John nobody fucks with you and then talk to Mark.
Mark: So what's your read on Andy so far? You think they'd be open to letting us stay?
Lee: I may have turned him off when talking up our guns.
Mark: Shit. Well... do something to turn him on again.
Lee: O_O
Mark: You know what I mean.
brenda bug got that line emprinted in my memory
...
"i told you not to come any closer! i told you!"
Some things I recall:
I pushed Omid
I rescued Christa first
I took Clementine to Crawford
I hid the bite
I said I needed to go alone
I played a good guy in general. I was always upfront and honest with Clem. I felt Omid was going to die and turn which is why I took her to Crawford. I also talked to all characters at every opportunity.
I was most surprised with my Ep4 results. I was only in the 32% minority who let Ben go and only 19% minority who hid the bite. To me, if this was a movie, no way does Lee reveal the bite. That's a plot suspense point that would be shared with the character and audience until the end. I'm surprised I was in the major minority on that.
I was shocked when i saw someone in a let's play immediately hide the bite without any hesitation. These people are what passes for friends now, you fight alongside them and save each others lives every day, yet you still distrust them? I suppose it can be an easy choice if you're against Kenny and not too comfortable with Omid & Christa, but some people are as good as good can be to everyone yet still hide the bite.
"Important to stay honest with each other." -Kenny
And I managed to go off alone, so I kept them out of harms way.
I personally think it builds a better bond with Lee in that you two are the only ones who know of the bite and that he is going to die, so all your actions become that much more important. (And you don't have outside people reminding you that you're going to die each spare moment.)
All of the remaining members meet back at the mansion, regardless of who you bring to Vernon's "hideout".
He dies the same way.
I actually like Omid and Christa, but this made me laugh out loud.
Omid and Christa either come or stay as a pair.
