Telltale Games

MrButtons · 12/08/2010, 02:36 pm

I see there are telltale peoples that are in this thread, so I'll post it here... just downloaded the game through steam yesterday 12/7 so it should be rocking the new patch and I can't get the game to run. I've seen in other places that I may be out of luck considering my video card, but I noticed that the patch was supposed to allow the older computers/cards the ability to play. I'm getting the black screen issue where I can hear whats happening but not see. I get the telltale logo when I start up, and I see the menu options (with darkness behind them) and then I get nothing but sound when I try to play.

I'm using a late 2006 macbook, everything updated that I know about

Macbook C2D 2.0GHz, 1GB Ram, GMA 950 Video, Mac OS 10.6.5

BUG

3 times now after i folded a hand they all just sit there staring at me idly. The game is stuck like this and wont progress until I start a new tournament.

Suggestion for Homestar Runner deck. Put the card number/value at the top left corner as well. I cant tell what the crap is going on when the cards are half shown like this...

2nd card in is a 2 even tho it looks like a 7, and dont even ask me what the river card is on this screen

New characters would not work. New tables, i feel, they COULD do, but they probably won't.

Bunnyman · 12/08/2010, 11:32 pm

Thanks for the update! The tables are a nice touch, especially the security table. I'm glad I am not the only one who gets a little sad when I see a game updated and it only fixed a few bugs.

The game has been running fine for me. The only thing I've noticed is pressing Esc during a one on one match causes the camera to go back to it's default position. I also agree that there should be a small change to the Strong Bad deck to make it easier to read. Otherwise I haven't been confused by side pots as much this time.

anyone else haveing huge lag as soon as you get to the table? I've added a lot of spare memory and set the graphics to the lowest quality to no effect. in fact this seemed to start happening just this week.

Since the new update, I have a strange NEW problem. After the telltale intro, the game freezes for around 15 seconds on a black screen. Didn't happen before, happens now.

Strange. Mine went away too.

In my case it was before upgrading, though. Yesterday I opened the game and hit "Play". It asked if I wanted to continue to continue the previous tournament, and I said "no" (like I've done many times before). On the second game, Tycho threw in his watch, which is when I noticed that everything (score, etc) had been reset. In fact, the resolution had been reset, now that I think about it.

Later I upgraded, and it started the tutorial again, though it remembered my previous score. Maybe that's even normal?

I haven't really done anything that would have caused the settings loss. Weird that it remembered that I was in the middle of a game, though.

Allright Telltale, what the fuck? I suffered from this bug again, I've lost my stats / unlockables again. When I've lost the tournament and I've chosen to watch the rest of the game. Then I've quited. But the next time I've launched the game it deleted all my progress, my settings and asked if I want to start new tournament or to continue the old one. I've tried to continue but my saves were already lost.
This is the second time this shit happens to me, first time was before patch.

None of the bugs (first one about how stats are collected) that I've pointed out on this forums were fixed. I'm loosing motivation to continue to play and unlock all tables and card decks again.

nahnah390 · 12/10/2010, 02:34 pm

I've lost my stuff as well. WHY IS THIS AN ISSUE? is it even possible toget my stuff back? By that i mean is it possible for a patch to bring it back?

nahnah390 · 12/10/2010, 03:18 pm

oh even better now the game lags so much that it was almost impossible for me to move the mouse and keep track of it, this is stupid. the unlocks menu has my stuff on there for a minute but it disapears for no reason. WHY DID THIS EVEN HAPPEN?

Gman5852 · 12/10/2010, 05:43 pm

Im actually feeling sorry with telltale.
This is their buggiest game to date, and this is also the game they choose to add tf2 items in adding the noobs at the tf2 forums.

nahnah390 · 12/10/2010, 09:20 pm

okay I have to admit the game itself isn't bad, it's just gotten incredibly buggy lately and has seemed to wipe all of my stuff except my current tournament.*SOB* those items were harder to get than i thought they would be! (curls up into fetal position)

Molokov · 12/10/2010, 09:59 pm

You guys are so unlucky. I installed v2 today and DID NOT lose my previous stats/tables. Everything worked fine.

My suggestion: backup your save/prefs folder every time you play the game now... that way it'll always be possible to restore it to the last time you played.

Yeah I haven't experienced a single glitch. Im just lucky like that

nahnah390 · 12/11/2010, 09:05 am

I curse you both. does anyone know when telltale will get around to fixing these issues?

No one knows. They probably will although it might cause more glitches.
What happened with this game, something had to have screwed up but where?

nahnah390 · 12/11/2010, 01:57 pm

what's odd is the game seems to remember me haveing them on the unlocks page, as in when i go to the unlocks page it has them on the screens for a split second, but after that they just revert back to the originals. so I'm pretty sure the game hasn't wiped its memory completely. This has happend everytime I go to the unlocks page by the way.
