Telltale Games

GamingDragon316 · 09/25/2012, 05:42 pm

Ok so some articles are saying Episode 4 is coming october and so episode 5 will hit November since the retail version comes Dec. 4 there are alot of articles to post but i think the most popular for most people is IGN but i dont go by what IGN says because they suck ASS. anyways leave ur thoughts on this situation and maybe we will see Ep. 4 October and Ep. 5 November

Doesn't Dec. 4th mean episode 5 will come out that day?

*GuruGuru214* · 09/25/2012, 06:46 pm

Not so much. Telltale releases the PC build on their site as soon as they have it ready. They wouldn't get it ready, send the season off so the discs could be manufactured, hold the episode back during the manufacturing process, and then release it on the same day as the retail disc. Episode 5 has to come out a decent amount of time before the retail disc.

Ah fuck. They would release the next episode the month I deploy. Goddamnit. >_<

TellTale magically got faster at making episodes?

Why is it magic that a difficult process is made easier with practice?

Also, this sort of pace would only a week or two faster than the previous gap between releases which can be accounted for by having more time for pre-production of these episodes, as well as more time for general production anyway - it's not like they wait until one episode is out before they started making the next one, the production schedules of the episodes overlap and so the later episodes always have more time available for production than the earlier ones.

Any chance your superiors will understand why you absolutely can't deploy right now but will totally deploy once episode 4 & 5 have been released?

rumours suggest they had the pc versions ready for previous episodes before the consoles yet held them back because of the console certification process and to release them all 'together' to avoid people spoilling it with lets play vids..

maybe if he played it before he could get a medical exemption on mental / emotional trauma of seeing 'unspeakable shit'

Maybe ttg might release one episode at the start of October and the last episode at the end of October that's just me and wishful thinking

The key word there being "rumors".

I did file a complaint that we are so behind from pc, Mac, ps3 players. I rather they release everything the same time instead of doing it separately. I find it frustrated when iOS players still stuck on episode 2.

*GuruGuru214* · 09/26/2012, 11:12 am

They release each build as soon as it's ready. Porting the game to iOS takes time, and they don't want to have the finished game just sitting around, making players on all other systems wait while the iOS version gets finished. That said, they've been learning, and they've been working to reduce the gap between iOS and PC/Xbox/PS3, with the goal being a same-day release.

This just in: Something everyone probably already knew. It won't be out before the 9th, so I won't be playing it for a LONG time.
