Yah based on abasoultely nothing!
OBVIOUSLY GAME OF THRONES AND BORDERLANDS WON'T BE RELASED TILL 2018 BECAUSE TELLTALE DELAYS GAMES EXPONENTIALLY HAHAHAH
Get over it delays fucking happen
I know you're just joking, but I think they meant to say that the that because of maybe inactivity from their side in the holidays the delay grew longer as they didn't respond to publishers maybe.
So you think 3 and 1/2 months is an acceptable amount of time to wait between episodes? Is that what you are saying? Or are you saying that yo… moreu don't care to know why it took so long and don't care if it is something that could happen again? So you are saying them doing this exact same thing again so long as they eventually give us a release date is ok? If you are in fact saying all of that, fine, whatever, but don't bitch about people being upset unless you want this exact thing to happen again every time. Now, I'm not saying that it will happen, but if you are complacent with it now, you should be consistent and complacent with it happening again and again. And if you are complacent what's to stop it from occurring again?
1) I sense they might have had to rewrite something or ensure Ep3 and onwards were on schedule.
2) Publisher issues maybe because of nudity (on the Appstore)
Look telltale already confirmed on these very fourms that they woudln't even consider starting Borderlands and Game of thrones until TWAU and TWD S2 are finished
Thanks, but I wish it didn't take a massive thread on reddit just to get an update from you guys. Hopefully this is the last time this game gets delayed, for whatever reason. Can't wait for Feb!
Thank you for the update, I see some people are still complaining so i guess you cant please everyone. Hopefully there is a little bit more optimism rather than the recent negativity that we have seen in here.
well at least I know when I have to play episode 1 again. I think I forgot most of the story by now cause all I remember is too women got beheaded and I ripped some assholes arm off, and learned the true definition of [glass him] which did not mean what I thought it was going to mean.
I was moreso talking about episode 3 of wolf since it seems mainly this delay was due to thngs partially out of Telltale's control so hopefully episode 3 of Wolf will be out in a shorter time span to make up for it. TWD is such a big thing for Telltale I doubt it will be affected much maybe two weeks tops. Due to wanting to ride out the Wolf train when Episode 2 gets released but for the most part I doubt TWD will see much of a delay it's already obvious it's their main focus anyways.
oh as for twd s2 e2 'someone' said 4-6 weeks now if we take the holidays into account that means they have until the SECOND WEEK IN FEB to release it, but i'll assume it'll be more like the second half/end of feb, with an announcement very soon after twau ep2 releases.
No one promised a january release, we were promised an update january. I've been pissed off by the dead silence we've been given, but now Kevin has stated it will be due the first week of february, I don't see a reason to come here any longer, I got what I wanted, news specific to the releasedate.
I don't know if I should cry or laugh. I was hoping it'd come in January like promised but... TELLTALE GAMES right there for you.
I guess w… moree can't be angry at them anymore, but I hope this delay won't affect The Walking Dead. They are far over their timeframe with The Walking Dead in the end of the first week of February.
See? Was that really so hard just to communicate a little?
First week of February is one helluva delay, but I don't mind delays as long as I don't feel like I've been forgotten or ignored. Please communicate with the people here more often in the future.
Finally, and not so finally since we have to wait so long still.
I'm guessing by "struggle" we're talking censorship related stuff or some… morething maybe. Dunno, somehow I just figured the prostitution thing might have raised alarms at MS or Sony for some reason or something else in the episode might've seemed too controversial for the publishers. Just speculating.
Guys even though it's nice to hear some update they still haven't said the date. They said 1st week of February, but then remember that they said that a new update would be coming in EARLY January .. it's 14th today .. hardly early January.
I am exited as well, but at the same time I am very careful to actually take it as a final date. I guess we shall see in the FIRST (that's from 3rd to 9th NOT later) week of February. Why am I expecting another delay though.
PS: TellTale, seriously think about your PR management, seriously! If your guy isn't capable of making a single post about the release date or something similar for 3!! months (not counting the update which told us to wait for an update) then something is very wrong and he clearly doesn't deserve his money. Hell even I could do his job better.
Nope, not enough. You can't break the silence, not even give an actual date, basically say nothing about what caused the delay and then walk away. If there was some catastrophe, you tell us when it happens and what you're doing about it. You say you're not going to dive into details? I need you to go into details. And, going forward, communicate what is happening.
I'm holding off on season pass purchases (having been buying those since BTTF) depending on how these things will be handled in the future.
Still, I'm kinda pissed that they get an update after a forum post that popped up just today and we had to make a 82 pages long thread instead.
(just joking)
Good. I appreciate that this announcement was made by Kevin, I appreciate that he made it here first, and I appreciate that he confirmed that this was an unexpected delay that likely won't happen in the future. I wish he had made this announcement quite a bit earlier, but I guess he wanted to wait until he could safely confirm a rough release window.
But here's the thing: if this isn't a trend that's expected to continue through the rest of the season, then what is? With TWD, we were given a time frame of 4-6 weeks and so if productions takes much longer than that, we would know that some problem must have arose that resulted in a delay. Right now, there is still no official release date schedule for TWAU. Without it, fans have no promise that the remaining episodes will be delivered in a timely manner. How long did this delay extend the production of the episode? Two months? One month? A week? If we likely won't have to wait such a long time for the remaining episodes of the season, how long will we have to wait?
ttg have a rule they don't admit what went wrong, because SOME PEOPLE MIGHT complain about it oh wait..
for example why give information out that could either hurt future sales/revenue or their image ?
a big studio can afford to do it a smaller studio like ttg can't.
that is why news is so rare, they know the customers will froth at the mouth with anything they give, so best to be 200% sure before spilling, this update is proof of that,
but i guess there is alot of over entitlement going on..
Im not playing the game again until all the episodes are available, anyway. But that was a sort of a vague non answer by the telltale staffer. I doubt the episode is released "the first week of february"
also, problem is even if ttg released a new episode within a week of the last one people will still complain..it's not polished or it was rushed or it was to short...
Thank you for the update. Are you allowed to tell us why it was delayed or are you under an NDA? People would not have gotten nearly this upse… moret if you had just communicated with us, even if its just telling us that you legally aren't allowed to talk about the problem. Then we at least know why you've been silent.
But they've said week 1 of february which is helluva more specific than "early january" it might be friday of the 1st week, but as long as it comes within the 7 days they have, I don't mind.
Guys even though it's nice to hear some update they still haven't said the date. They said 1st week of February, but then remember that they s… moreaid that a new update would be coming in EARLY January .. it's 14th today .. hardly early January.

My god some of you guys are impossible to please. 4 months wait instead of 2. Big deal.
Telltale has been making episodic games for what no… morew, 6 or 7 years? And they've always kept a good rhythm of one episode every 4 to 8 weeks for each series. One time they fuck up and that's it, you instantly lose all trust?
Anyway, thanks for breaking radio silence, I'm excited to play episode 2.
I agree! No more advance purchases for me!!! Makes absolutely no sense to play a 2-hour segment of a game, wait 4 months and then play another… more 2-hour segment. Even waiting 4-6 weeks is a bit of a stretch for such a game but 4 months is way out beyond ridiculous.
Comments
If Telltale doesn't have 2 new other teams for those games they're fools.
Thanks, I guess...
You should rename the company slow and smug games
I know you're just joking, but I think they meant to say that the that because of maybe inactivity from their side in the holidays the delay grew longer as they didn't respond to publishers maybe.
Its obviously stated that there was an issue with eh development that they couldn't talk about
(Possibly a Death, Contractual obligation, ect) and that it won't happen again
If It does I will definately be pissed
But are you saying that if im complacent once Ill always be complacent with it?
Wat
Thats like saying because Im a liberal I support Obama 100%.......
Im not even sure if Obama's Cabinet supports him 100% anymore........
I think it's due to one of two things:
1) I sense they might have had to rewrite something or ensure Ep3 and onwards were on schedule.
2) Publisher issues maybe because of nudity (on the Appstore)
WHO THE FUCK BROUGHT THAT UP?
Look telltale already confirmed on these very fourms that they woudln't even consider starting Borderlands and Game of thrones until TWAU and TWD S2 are finished
So stop yer bitching :P
Nice that you guys are out with a release date , can't wait to play the second episode.
Although i could barrely hear this announcement through the sound of all the children whining...
DEAR GOD YYYYYYEEEEEESSSSSSSS...........
Thanks, but I wish it didn't take a massive thread on reddit just to get an update from you guys. Hopefully this is the last time this game gets delayed, for whatever reason. Can't wait for Feb!

Thanks Kevin. Good to know, the update is appreciated.
well at least I know when I have to play episode 1 again. I think I forgot most of the story by now cause all I remember is too women got beheaded and I ripped some assholes arm off, and learned the true definition of [glass him] which did not mean what I thought it was going to mean.
I'm hoping the PS Vita version is released soon? I would really like to buy the season pass for that.
Still waiting for 'Official explanation for the delay'.
nail'd it

someones greedy..
sheesh..
So excited for it!! But when will the next offer for it on STEAM be? I really want to play this awesome game and see where it takes myself
Hope walking dead ep2 is this month
You really want more screenshots? I actually want to be suprised by everything and not know a single things thats coming tbh.
yup,
oh as for twd s2 e2 'someone' said 4-6 weeks now if we take the holidays into account that means they have until the SECOND WEEK IN FEB to release it, but i'll assume it'll be more like the second half/end of feb, with an announcement very soon after twau ep2 releases.
someone slap this dude please
and then slap the downvoters..
muehehehehehehe

umm Witcher 2? if MS/Sony didn't have a problem with that game, they sure wouldn't care what happened with this one.

I believe when Kevin says it was a pure coincidence that the Reddit post come the same day that they planned the announcement

nah, they actually care about making TWD games
NDA puzzle has pretty much admitted it..
also, problem is even if ttg released a new episode within a week of the last one people will still complain..it's not polished or it was rushed or it was to short...
But they've said week 1 of february which is helluva more specific than "early january" it might be friday of the 1st week, but as long as it comes within the 7 days they have, I don't mind.
nailed it bro.
downvoters calm your tits.
edit i guess those titties are getting madder t hehe
I'll just have to continue to read the comics till then
Well, that's good at least to know..
heard this before and i reckon you'll still buy the new games when they come out, and be back on here whinging..
you have only yourself to blame, for not waiting to play them all.
yeah ttg usually use a third party 'seemingly unpopular site to release news to the masses'
