Real professional.
I'm starting to think I may have gotten ripped off and am considering taking legal action. This is the sort of class action law suit any attorney would love to get their hands on.
You are considering a Lawsuit because the game is delayed? uhhhh good luck with that one. It's about as ridiculous as the guy who is trying to sue BIoware for the ending of Mass Effect 3.

You want action now? Call up your credit card company. They will push things along.

It's not impossible (you can sue for damages), but it's impractical because of the contract's price.

Secondly i don't think they had any new ideas yet to how they would want diablo 3 to be/seem like
I know this was a few pages back. ( Don't check the forums one day and like 5 pages are added, lol) But I'm pretty since they were saying Diablo 3 would be released a few years ago.( Originally around 5 or 6 I think? Could be only 3 or 4 really.) If my memory is correct that is. WOW set it back for a while, more so than the other Blizzard games.

As for the rest of it. I don't think this thread is going to change much. A lot of people are upset. I work at Gamestop and I have tons of people coming in flipping out about this, like I can do anything about it. ( Since we sell the DLC for it, it of course means we control the game.) The lack of information is stressful, not just from a consumer, but as someone who deals with games.

I'm really really really really hoping that since they are showing a preview at E3 they may release more of a date. I'm not sure what else we can hope for. I saw someone posted a list of their other games and some of those were a month late. It seems to be a bad habit Telltale should probably consider breaking.

I know it's creative work and I know it takes time. But that is something they should consider BEFORE releasing the first episode and BEFORE offering a Season Pass to the games.

Sure, there is other stuff for us to do. Sure, I bet some( some anyways) of these people have plenty of patience. But, it's the being left in the dark thing that has people upset.

The bottom line is, it's the principle of the matter. About doing what is right and keeping the people who pay your bills happy, even if that means having to do something that is difficult like addressing the concerns of an unhappy mob.

People are going to complain. Majority of people HATE where I work. They hate the company. I deal with people's outrages all the time. I can fully understand both sides of the table on this. Yet, myself and others( the good ones) who work with me always try to explain to the customers why things are the way they are. Even when we aren't really suppose to. It's because we don't like our customers upset and we want them to come back.

That is just what happens when you own a business. And you have to deal with the crap. But you actually have to DEAL with it to make people understand your side better. Ignoring the fact helps nobody.

Let me put my two cents in and say I love Gamestop.

Weird, inorite?

But these guys were my heroes. I'm legally blind; born that way. When I was in 5th grade, my ophthalmologist told me to start playing video games. Yes, really. This was 15+ years ago, before the idea that video games could, you know, actually help people became a mainstream idea.

We go into a Gamestop and pick out something age appropriate that I could also handle. Pokemon Red. A magnifying lens. And I was going to get my brother's old brick of a Gameboy from 1987 plus his original copies of Tetris and Mario. Turns out the mag lenses wouldn't fit; they were only built to clip on the slimmer Game Boy Pockets.

When the manager heard why my mom was getting this stuff, he told us the clip wouldn't fit. My mom wasn't about to drop another 100$ to buy a system, too.

The manager gave me a gently used red Game Boy pocket that didn't have a battery casing (it had been used as an in-store display). On the house. I still have it.

Respect, man.

Not all Gamestops can suck. It's pretty awesome to hear he did that. We try our best to be as fair to the customers as possible. We push Gamestops guidelines as far as we can. ( I try to not get fired. Gotta pay the bills.) A lot of people have bad experiences there, and we make it a point to try to point out it's not us.

The bottom line is the person. And that dude was probably an overall awesome guy.

1- When you're given a deadline, you should try hard to give the product before the deadline passes. But if you gave the deadline yourself then i believe you shouldnt pass it. No one forced ttg to release monthly episodes, they told us themselves and now they failed to do it within the deadline they gave. But i know things may go wrong, so even though i think they should have released it by now(again, because they gave the deadline), im not mad at this. But i can understand people who are mad because of this reason.

2- What i cant understand is why ttg wont tell us anything, i mean you take your customers money, you fail to deliver the product, and you just ignore the customer. You may have ran into problems but WHY are you ignoring your customer? I dont want them to give me a date, i just want them to say something. Just write 'We're sorry but we ran into a couple of problems' or write 'Sorry', if you cant even write that then just write 'sry' but write something. And like that wasnt enough, in the old thread a guy named Mike comes and says 'cool it with the insults'. So you ARE watching the thread, you see your customers say 'please tell us something' and you ignore them. I mean someone even said 'now that we know youre watching the thread, can you tell us why episode 2 isnt released yet' and Mike just disappeared.

I think people who demand information are right and not babies or people without a life.
I posted this yesterday but i still see people saying 'get a life'.

So when a person demands information from a company that he has paid to for a product that has been delayed and when that information is not given, does that mean that person doesnt have a life? People here are not complaining unreasonably, they simply want information or at least something from ttg

Yeah it is strange how the people who want to complain aregetting mocked and called no life losers when they seem to not post back once they make their complaint, yet the fanboys seem to be here 24/7 ready to post a quick rebuttal to any complaint. Maybe to have a life in their eyes that's what you have to do?

Stay on here 24/7 and post all the time praising the devs and mocking complainers?

Are you indirectly specifying that episode 2 will be out next week ?

Except Bioware didn't advertise that the game would never end, and TTG advertised a monthly release... False Advertisement is a legal claim in America and I am sure in other countries also. If the guy wanted to go down that route, he could and more than likely win... Just saying...

I'm not even sure there are many "fanboys" yet for the TWD game. There are a lot of new people who acknowledge a great start to this series, but most of them are still in a wait-and-see mode, and many with a higher post count have shared some concerns and wishes for the future episodes. After all, 80% of this game has not yet been released!

What you can see and understand however is mounting tension, and community members might somehow feel the need to "take a side" in light of the more extreme comments.

I understand the people who just wish to have more info on this matter, I understand the people who are upset about the delay, and I understand the people who are fed up with the complaints already. You all will have to understand that all three opinions absolutely have their place in this forum and everyone is entitled to post their opinion as long as they do it in a calm and civilized manner, as long as they do not pick on others, and as long as they do not insist that their individual complaint somehow warrants a complete single new thread.

Somehow, I'm on all three mentioned "sides" and I have a right to be, but this forum just doesn't work without a bit more patience and a bit less insults.

It's all real life stuff spawner... real girls, real fun, real good talks. The food might be a bit artificial though. And again, I have no idea when in June episode 2 will finally hit. Haven't even had the stones to vote in the new poll yet. Not enough statistics for that one.

Absolutely. I have no idea why they feel the need to:

1) defend the poor customer service of Telltale games

2) advise anyone who has the temerity to ask where the game is how to live their life.
