How many times do you think I did that before using REWIND? IT IS A GLITCH. You cant just tap it and be patient. No matter what you do with the choices I made it wouldn't work. Change the choices, works like a charm. By the way when I did complete the chapter I didnt need to tap it. I could just hold up until she raised the gun, let go and repeat.

ok so you told brenda you where danny and she see's a black guy walk in the door ???!!!

SERIOUSLY??? course she'd bloomin shoot you..

it worked second time cos you chose the RIGHT OPTION..

and then you do what i did and what other have said it ain't a glitch is just player error period. and that is my view not gonna change.

in short the whole section is a puzzle

So when she shot me shouldn't it start again before that part? Instead of "saving" and restarting a dozen times where my only option is to open the door in a neverending loop? This is a dead end then. The only option is to use REWIND. That is what you are telling me?

[Milosuperspesh]

i only have played ep2 once and i got past it within a few tries to work out how to avoid being shot.. i picked i ain't danny/ he ain't coming

[stunt double]

guys it's a glitch, I signed in just to post this. you may not be experiencing the same problems and the other posters but i am. When u walk in the door and begin to walk towards her the game automatically makes us continue the step. I have done this for 2 nights now restarting after each fail for a combined 2 hours. it's a glitch.

I've managed to to instigate the 2nd portion where the zombie is just above her once. since than i've not been able to get to that point.

it's a glitch to some users NOT ALL. the game makes us continute walking forward even though we stop, and hold back the stick to "go backward" in a sense but it does not allow us. the game automatically makes us take that extra step.

not all people get the same glitches. just because you didn't have the problem doesn't mean you need to be all over other people who have.

and also i went through and played the scenario using all available replies numerous times, "got what he deserved", " yeah it is", etc...it's the same no matter the response for myself. and probably others

this really sucks because my game played smooth with no other problems and I literally was gonna beat it in one sitting but ran into this. hopefully they patch it for those who are having problems.

Actually I told Brenda I was Danny, and I managed to do it in the end. I did get shot quite a lot before I knew what to do, but then I stopped when she raised her gun and talked to her.

It's a glitch ! It's easy to blame the player when you don't have the same problem , but trust me it is a glitch the dialog choices just don't load for whatever reason , it's not how you answer Brenda on the front lawn. If you lie to Brenda you can still progress in the game. It's not how you hold the joystick or whatever ! That is not how this game is played...It's an 'effen glitch! I had to reinstall the game to fix it . So that is what worked for me . Hope it works for anyone else who had this very frustrating problem.

I downloaded it again and reinstalled now that problem now it's fixed. I hope that works for you.

that has no barring on game play...
You can replay that chapter yourself or go on YouTube and watch the I.G.N. walkthrough . Lee can lie to Brenda and still clear that part of the game no choices you make actually effect game play they effect the cut scenes . It's an actual glitch in the game. I had to reinstall it to get it to work .

[craftyard]

Yep. This is a glitch. I left Danny alive, then tried to trick Brenda into thinking I was Danny. I open the door, walk up, and stop immediately as she points the gun at me.

I try moving my cursor over her head, no option to talk to her at all, I die.

Try again, move it to her stomach, I die.

Tried this about 10 more times, I die every single try. And no, I'm not some big dum gorilla who doesn't know how to stop - I stop the split second she tells me to, and I always die.

So I rewind a bit, try again, and when I'm sneaking up to the house I choose the option to tell her that I've left Danny in the barn. The next time she points the gun at me, the option to speak appears, and I succeed.

So it's definitly a bug. So please, everyone who's called us "stupid" or "idiots", at least consider that maybe our game really is bugged before you start slinging insults around.

Btw, I played this on PC. Everyone I see who calls us idiots are playing the xbox version. Seems to me like the PC version is bugged, but not the xbox.

thanks for that, i'll give it a shot when i get home.

[stunt double]

Still dragged my guy into triggering her shooting me. I'm gonna try a rewind and use different approach. Which completely goes against the "choose your own adventure" style the game is.

I only deleted episode 2. Did u mean u delete everything but the save

[Ben_Kenobi]

I was stuck at this part for a good 10 minutes and it was very frustrating. I eventually turned the game off and tried to go back to the last auto save because I figured I was not supposed to go inside the house, but it would not let me exit the house once going in, and it autosaved at that point so I couldn't go back. Finally, I just got on the forums and found this thread and I tried a few more times, going a little slower and it worked.

Not sure if this is a glitch or what, but regardless, it is poor game making by Telltale, they should have made this part of the game a little more clear about what you are supposed to do at this point. It's very confusing and frustrating, so hopefully Telltale will learn from this mistake.

Sounds weird. I'm playing on PC. I killed Danny, accidentally made the choice of telling Brenda that "I left him in the barn and he got what he deserved" and she still allowed me to approach her for dialogue options.

It's a pretty simple mechanic; approach slowly when she points the gun at Katja, stop and look for a dialogue option when she points the gun at you. If that's not doing it, sounds like you've got a nasty glitch.

[darren00000123]

I'm having the same problem on the 360 version.

When I first got to that point, I had killed Danny and then told Brenda I left him in the barn. I got the conversation options 3 times and I could see the zombie at the top of the stairs but she shot me each time after that because I screwed up.

Now every time since then, no more conversation options and no more zombie appearing at the top of the stairs. Brenda just backs up a bit and then shoots me. I've tried rewinding to the barn and choosing all sorts of different options but nothing is causing those conversation options with Brenda to pop up again.

Guess I'm stuck until they fix this. Hopefully soon.

[jojimbo]

tell her to "put the gun down...bitch!"
hahahaha rofl

[SteelcityCanada]

Hmm when I did the rewind maybe I should have tried the exact same responses again to see what would happen. Either way it was very frustrating to not be able to play the game and to autosave at the screen door where you are stuck in an endless loop of getting shot in the face.

[stunt double]

Ok if this doesn't get psyched this week I'm gonna split. Such a great game ruined becuz of this glitch to me. I was at edge of my seat when I originally got to this but now I'm fed up.

Redownloaded game and no dice. Still forced to walk into bullet. I have 2nd save back in episode 1 ill catch up to this point in ep 2. If sane problem and no word if patch I'm bouncing.

That aggravated.

[Tsteve]

Ok so I ran into this problem, tried looking all around the entryway, I tapped the 'w' key, couldn't figure anything out, she just kept killing me when I approached her after the first dialogue box. So I Google it, landed here and read all the pages thus far and figured out a way for people to get passed this part whether you're on PC or Xbox...

I literally had to TAP the 'w' key, wait 1-2 seconds to see if I triggered the response---and simply repeated that until she did tell me to stop again; to which I held my breath and was pleasantly surprised not being shot (repeat this process until she is grabbed, obviously). The problem is if you don't just tap the 'w' key (or however you do so with the dpad or analog stick) you literally will move "too far" beyond the zone of triggering just the dialogue and not overstepping your bounds with Brenda and getting shot.

Visceral games should release a patch or something, because it literally is a matter of milleseconds of tapping the 'w' key and you're dead. I went the whole Epi. 1 and 2 thus far without dying, but now I have died maybe 5-6 times just because of some over-sensitive dialogue triggering mechanic.

P.S. Wow, there are some useless and rude people on here. Try not being douches maybe?
