DLC before season 2

edited June 2013 in The Walking Dead
I'm happy that we are getting somthing before S2 but any ideas what it might be?

Personally I want a dlc pack that allows you to have even more outcomes to the story and characters like being able to save Carley so that she can be in the other episodes or save duck and hopefully an alternate ending where Lee doesn't die and an option for someone else to get bitten.

What ever the dlc will be I'm sure it will be somthing worth while before season 2 :)

    I can almost positively guarantee it won't be an alteration of the existing first season via DLC or whatever. It'd simply be too much work to go back and edit the old stuff, and it'd alter the story significantly - and despite the vocal minority of people claiming to want that, we'd all know it was a retcon and nobody really likes those.

    It'll probably be a stand-alone episode, maybe a prequel to the forthcoming season 2.

    But don't let me stop you from dreaming "what if"!

    Imagining a Standalone Episode or some sort of "Director's Cut" Edition/DLC.

    I'll second the expectation of it being a prequel of sorts for some of season 2's characters. It's fairly safe to say they aren't going to change any of the outcomes of the first season at this point.

    Lee was shot or left in the store and suddenly Clementine is in the countryside. So i assume the DLC will clarify what happened before that cliffhanger and S2 will continue after that.

    I know there are some rumors about a phantom "episode 6" that popped up when someone fired up the game. Even if I hadn't heard the rumor, I would assume that it's some sort of playable stand alone episode or a movie-based episode.

    As long as it doesn't alter the story of S1 (alternate endings, Carly/Doug lives, so on), I will be happy. A prequel or an interlude would be nice!

    I think if they did something like this it should be only as a teaser and maybe only alter it so that your final choice words to Clem (find the train, keep moving, etc) actually mattered in a big way. It'd be interesting to see the small clip after the credits change slightly depending on what you said to her.

    I'll quote myself from another thread, to post my idea here as well, as I'm too lazy to write half a novel at 5.48 am :D

    My theory is, that Clementine did as you said, whether it was "find a boat", "go to the train", "look for Omid and Christa on the roofs" or anything, and she probably found them, then something happened, that either killed them or seperated her from them, which caused her to leave Savannah / the train. And I personally draw the conclusion, that we'll get to play those happenings in the "bonus", which hopefully comes soon. There we'll see about the remaining characters, and about how Clem tries to cope with her loss, eventually she is forced to leave everything behind and to move on, to start over from scratch, as she sees 2 figures in the distance, BAM "bonus" or "Episode 6" ends, we see the same teaser, we saw after the credits of EP 5, or even a little preview/trailer to S2.

    Nothing of that is official or anything, just me imagining how they could continue her story, without implementing stupid flashbacks, that'd show what happened between S1 and 2, and thinking about what that "bonus" could be.

    I would be more than happy to start where it ended because there are still a lot of loose ties to clear up.Omid and Christa on one of my playthroughs i told them to me at the Hotel when they got down,did they get down? did they get eaten? did Omid Fall again? LOL am i dead? ..............my dream scenario would be a : Lee wakes up after being out for 2 days,makes his way out of the jewlery store in the footsteps of Clem and where he told her to go(boat/meet new group/countryside/find O & C/) and he runs into O & C and helps them out ,then they set off as a threesome into the countryside for Season 2.

    ALSO there is a scene in WD a flashback of Omid and Christa fighting zombies somewhere,where is this scene from? what location?
  • edited April 2013
    ALSO forgot to add,IF WD2 is out in the Fall,well the add on for S1 has to be this summer :D anytime now!!!!! :D
  • edited April 2013
    The scene with Omid and Christa was inside the train station, where the three walkers attacked Lee and Clem.

    Hmm, maybe it could be a crossover between several game series? Lee in Assassin's Creed cloak xD I can see it now 0.o

    Yeah retcons are never a good thing. As great as Carley and Lee were, there's nothing we can do for them now. Saving Duck is especially impossible, because that would just change everything...Kenny...Katjaa...Ben, butterfly effect madness.

    That said a non-canon "alternate ending/middle" style job where i'm allowed to live in a dreamworld in which all my favourite characters are still alive would be nice :p More than a little unlikely though.

    As for what it might it might actually be, I dont claim to have any idea. It could be any one of a vast number of things. Flashback with Lee, Prequel to S2 with the new NPC, What happens to Clem/Omid/Christa/(Kenny?), telling the back story of a character like the stranger, or none of those things :D

    Have all the main characters that died come back in a white background and interact one final time, maybe giving one final moment for them all to tell their stories and give us one last chance to say goodbye. I'm only joking about it, but man would that be my dreamworld. For Kenny, Lee, Carley, Chuck, Doug, Mark, Ben, Katjaa, and Duck to all be alive would be a fantasy come true. :)

    Well, if this thing were set between Episodes 1 and 2, we'd get something like that. We'd have everyone in the Macon group still alive and with us, with the unfortunate exception of Ben since he was found at the start of 2. That'd be a nice way to have a final goodbye for most of the characters. Sorry Ben :(

    LMAO I said this about molly. She wears a hood. She has a hook blade. Scales buildings with ease. Fights multiple oppoents with little trouble. Molly is part of the Assassins Creed Brotherhood.

    That's okay. I said "good-bye" when I let go of Ben. :cool:

    By I definitely support a story in between episode 1 and 2. It will most likely be about finding Mark at Robins Air Force Base IMO.

    Maybe her ancestors were lol. And maybe that was her occupation before the zombies came, and she had to flee with her sister. Maybe all this was Abstergo's fault!!!

    Omid and Christa getting out of Savannah. I remember Omid's VA saying that S2 was supposed to come out in the summer, but that was before it was announced for Fall. Maybe he got the two mixed up.
  • edited April 2013
    Well I think it will be between Episode 1 and 2 explaining a little bit in the 3 month gap that there is, like finding Mark, seeing Kenny and Lilly argue, Larry be a dick to Lee, and all that fun stuff, and you never know, you could have found somebody else in that 3 month gap but they died in the gap as well, just never mentioned. Thats what I think. (Basically a Episode 1.5)

    Clem sees Lee in a white dress every episode.

    Three choices I would want to change......................................

    Lilly would live
    Carley/Doug would live
    A way to save Mark
  • edited April 2013
    There were also photos for Episode 3 how Lee & Kenny meet Omid & Christa at the drugstore (O&C was on top of the drugstore next to a helicopter) and also a trailer that was deleted fast from youtube for Episode 2 where Carley freaked out when you tried to take her food.

    I only want to see what happen to Lilly or how Omid & Christa did make their way to the bridge or out of Crawford/Savannah.

    We need the Kenny Chronicles! Show his harrowing, action-packed escape from Savannah using nothing but his bare hands, a half empty bottle of whiskey, and his mustache to fight off the herd, find Molly, meet Clem, and turn back time to stop Lee from being bitten!

    It makes perfect sense.
  • edited April 2013
    maybe the dlc will just be the resloution of clementines story so they can have a new cast for season two without upsetting to many pepole

    Is That Dr Who's Final Form? :OOOOO
  • edited April 2013
    It would most likely be something about the ending. Finaliseing Clems story or explaining about the two figures at the end.

    Though I wouldn't mind alternate choices in the game.
    My top 3 would be:
    Save Carley/Doug from Lilly
    Have someone else die in Marks place (Travis or David)
    More options with Lilly leaving (especially if she doesn't kill Carley/Doug)

    I agree. Either something about the ending, or a prequel/interquel type of thing.

    Unfortunately i don't think we'll be seeing any major "alternate decision" type things...

    This isn't likely, sorry! We're pretty comfortable with how the choices worked in Season One. That doesn't mean other Telltale games will be identical to The Walking Dead Season One, just that we're not going to go back and change it all around. We like where it ended up. Speaking of...
  • edited May 2013
    I honestly think you get to be Kenny in this little DLC, and you get to get out of the situation where it left off. I think that you will see how he will die, and stuff like that. Maybe even kill Vernon! And then in season 2, it will be a complete different story with different people and stuff :D :D :D

    Did anyone ever think that the content is not DLC but the soundtrack, as it has yet to be released and they said they would release it, it might be a long shot but it is a option.

    Interesting idea...I'd still be satisfied. Personally i wouldn't want Telltale to strain themselves by working on an "in-between" story episode and then being rushed to get Season 2 out in the same year. Hopefully that doesn't happen, and I'd be happy either way.

    Are we sure they were not talking about that WOLF AMOUNG US??

    Good point, they never said it would be Walking Dead content, I would still play it though.

    actually, Garry whitta did say it would be walking dead content.

    “You won’t have to wait for season two to play more Walking Dead,”

    He said this in an interview on Up at Noon on IGN.:)

    I really hope they do release something,and soon:D

    My mistake, it's been to long since I saw that interview, I would bet it would be in the summer, maybe July but who knows.
