  • Dude you think people in TWD are good and evil?

    Obviously he didn't since he begged for his life, but he should've thought that through. He's still evil for lying to his group and blaming clementine and putting everybody life's at risk.

  • Dawg why assume this group is that group when 400 Days is a year back in the story in Georgia?

    but they might have done this before remember the trailer park i bet arvo and his friends were there that group had all most nothing there i bet they were robbed. arvo and his friends wasn't faraway from there

  • Nope. You tell your group about strangers just in case. That could get your group screwed if you don't. My Clem warned Luke

    Mine didn't. The only thing that was taken was his gun, which was took for obvious reasons. Arvo had no vaild reason to tell his group about Clems group other then being a coward or an ass.

    That is le strange. If we have to shoot them I'd just shoot them clean considering they ain't some St John or Carver

    I understand what you're saying. But the bottom line is they surrounded us and with guns pointed at our heads, tried to rob a group of suffe

    Technically they did not point their guns until Luke pulled up his gun at Arvo in a threatening manner.

  • They're objective was to rob them, it doesn't really matter if Luke beat them to drawing his weapon. The bottom line is that they're intention was malicious.

    That's depending on dialogue, in my game Arvo stood still while speaking Russian to his group and Luke raised his gun.

    I don't think Arvo is evil, if he was he wouldn't be shaking like a leaf when holding the gun towards Clem and wouldn't even bother to say they have a baby to his group. I'll be honest, I thought he was lying about his sister or the medicine, even if it was true, he wasn't telling us everything.
    That said, I agree about the theory that the group is using him somehow. Though I think he was trying to hide the medicine from them. I didn't steal from him, he still said I did it. Which made me think he hid it away somewhere else and told them we (Jane) stole it. He doesn't want them to have the medicine for some reason and I believe it is because he don't like the rest of the group, most likely because they treat him like shit. He does say "they are laughing because you're little girl" makes me think, they are making fun of him because he got robbed by a little girl. Sounds pretty stereotypical bullying to me.

    Well if you want to bring that up.

    Eddie and Wyatt implied nate friends were getting a little hostile and the old people were defenseless when he killed them and he only did it to steal the stuff they had

  • I don't think they're evil, but if they hurt/killed somebody in my group I'll be pissed. meh, I'm Russian myself, but it doesn't bother me that they're portrayed as stereotypical Russians.

    No one is just straight up Evil, everyone has their reasons for things but some are more stricter than others on things, and I just don't like that they are SO the stereotypical Russian antagonist....

  • We don't know all the facts though.... but yeah probably right...

  • Yeah at least one half of TeamBike is gonna die in the shootout unless if another group takes out the Russians, and I just don't like that they are the stereotypical Russian villains because it's overdone in my opinion...

  • In this world, there is no good or evil. Only people doing whatever it takes to survive. Besides we are seeing it from Clem's pov, if we saw it from the Russian's pov we'd probably think the group was evil. Same with Nate, we see him from Russel's pov, so the fandom sees him as evil. If we saw everything from Nate's pov, it's very likely we wouldn't see him as evil as everyone thinks. Personally, Nate is one of my favorites, so I don't think he's evil at all. Just morally grey.

  • I am very worried..I know Clem won't die, and Luke or Kenny will most likely be injured. But Mike and Bonnie, I fear they will die. Yes, it is a bit overdone, but I still find it entertaining. XD

  • Arvo's "sister" doesn't exist, simple as. He got called out by Jane when the drugs were discovered. She and Clem both knew he would only distribute them to his group and he and they would abuse the drugs so they could delude themselves into thinking they're doing better than everyone else. They (Clem & Jane) took the painkillers to help Rebecca, and Arvo wouldn't even listen to reason.

    Hope he and his entire f*cking group are shown annihilated and dead on the ground in bits and pieces for the bs they pulled.

  • I knew he was lying right away.. I would have offed him if given the chance too. He lied to his group about us (If you don't steal) and he lied about his "sister," he's just a deceptive person.

    To be honest, they not really bad people, just a little rough with their judgment. I mean, Avro saying we stole from them isn't the only reason why the group wants Clem's group. Like Bokor said, Jane treated him like crap and took his gun away, leaving him defenseless in defending himself from walkers. Plus, Avro is always right about stealing from him, I mean we either only took his gun or we as well took the meds. So maybe Avro's group just want to give them payback by simply leaving them defenseless like Avro was by Jane. Wouldn't anyone do the same if it was Clem. In addition, they don't wish to harm Clem's group if they have a baby. I even think that they would have let Clem go if Rebecca didn't turn.

  • no not right...

    Eddie shot his friend in the head when he was taking a dump in the woods fact.

    Old people shoot first, Nate shoots last, i don't see the problem. In a survival situation first rule of survival is to either eliminate or avoid a known threat. How does Nate know they won't do it again, what if someone got killed because grandpa went crazy , and we just let him keep his guns. It would be on me.

    I think the conversation would go to making fun of his leg, to trying to get Arvo drunk to the point of vomiting, then accepting him into the fold as the beta male. Every group needs a Ben.

  • What if the Russians take the weapons, the baby formula, and the baby?

    Episode 5: Red Heat!

  • What? Of course the Russians are evil. C'mon guys were better than this as a community. They ambushed us even though we didn't steal from them . Get out of here trying to justify how they aren't evil. They literally opened fire in point blank range when we didn't even do anything to them AND we didn't want any trouble.

  • According to somebody, Vitali is talking shit to Kenny about eating his entrails and shit.

    also one guy is talking about eating there intrails Umm... What? Russian is my mother tongue and I'm sure that no one of them said anything like this.

  • They opened fire because Kenny/Clem shot first and they overreacted. They wanted to rob Clem's group because Jane, a woman who they assumed belonged to them, had attacked, threatened and robbed Arvo of his weapons (and possibly medical supplies.)

    It seems a little too obvious for them to just be generic "evil Russians". We'll probably change our minds just as players quickly changed their opinions about Bonnie. I have more faith in the writing than to just call them 'evil' because they're angry at Clem's group - you'd have done the same thing if a friend of yours was attacked and robbed.

  • i'm not talking about 400days the trailer park where clementine and jane found those dead people and jane says search them maybe arvo and his friends robbed them they had no guns but they did have three bullets and a nail file and they hadn't any medicine it's what they didn't have a group dug in like that would have that stuff

    As I said, I'm Russian, and I totally understand what did they say. Maybe they used Russian proverb "eat you with your entrails" (get a flawless victory) and it confused some people, but I can't remember them saying something like this.

    According to somebody, Vitali is talking shit to Kenny about eating his entrails and shit.

  • Interesting. Arvo says his people live "in the woods" and I'm inclined to believe them. But we don't know if the inactive corpses found at the trailer park were shot in the head by Luke/Nick, bitten by zombies, or killed by the Russian bandits.

  • Yeah, same with Vernon. Everyone seems to think he's some kind of deified villain, but he's just a man looking out for his own group. Look at it from his POV. A random stranger (Lee) barges into his safe haven, determinately threatening him with a gun. He loses a close friend (Brie) because a couple of random strangers (Ben and Kenny) decide to fight in the most inopportune time ever. One of said strangers (Kenny) explicitly planned to leave Vernon and his entire group to die in a city that he flooded with walkers via train once Vernon outlived his usefulness and helped fix the boat.
