This happened to my friend. Will add it to the OP. Thanks!

Just finished the game (amazing by the way) but among issues like the game temporarily freezing during cut scenes, I've noticed that some achievements that were unlocked during the course of the game have been removed from my profile. These are "complete chapter 1-3 of episode 2" achievements.

I don't particularly like the thought of playing through again because I would like to play through just once considering the concept behind the game.

Anyway, just wondering if anyone else is having this issue.

Cheers guys!

EDIT: Just a heads up for those wondering, this post was an interdependent thread but was merged with the current one for relevance. Thanks.

To everyone experiencing issues similar to this, that's just because your xbox is trying to load the choices you made (thus lags while deciding which cutscene to play)

Try clearing your system cache and it should help speed up your system. Not really a fix, but it should help a bit.

(this is my job btw. Can you tell?)

Wow glad i wasnt the only one having issues during the gameplay. The glitchyness seemed to clear up mostly by about halfway thru for me. Except for when lee finds marty in hes bad way. At that moment i thought the game had froze entirely but after a good 5 sec pause it continued. The story was very excellent by the way. Couldnt help thinking that poor clementine is surely gonna need some therapy by the time this all over.

But they DID want you to do multiple playthroughs with diffrence choices to see how things turn out.

Finally she speaks again and I cannot interact with her during this brief statement, as soon as she stops talking she shoots and kills me.

Is this a glitch?

I think this is a glitch. On my game I can inch inch inch forward and set my controller down when she points the gun at Lee. She shoots anyway.

I am never presented a dialogue option. I am NOT touching the left-thumbstick in any way except to inch closer... and I immediately let go of the thumbstick the moment she moves to point her gun at Lee.

I assure you that I am not suffering from Parkinsons or have terribly slow reflexes. I have a pretty impressive K/D on Call of Duty and I can thrash people in Rock Band.

So I beat episode 2 today, 3 hours after release for the Xbox. Now, when I click on my achievements it says Walking Dead: 8 out of 8. Then when I click it, it says I have 16 of 16 unlocked. My friend tells me that I only have the first 8 achievements. Anyone else having this? Any suggestions?

In regards to the "boss fight." Spoilers.

Walk toward Brenda until she points her gun at Lee. As soon as she does, STOP IMMEDIATELY then place the aiming reticle over her. There will be a dialogue option. Pick the nice one.

Highlight the blacked out boxes to read it.

[Web Head]

I hope the PC game isn't bugged or shit..

Why is Arthur V's comment blurred out? It appears he was trying to help those of us experiencing the Brenda Glitch.

to everyone experiencing problems with the brenda part of episode 2 of the walking dead look at Arthur V's comment a couple before mine, just hover your mouse over it and it should put up a ? over the blacked out spot and just click on it to remove the black spot, his/her solution worked for me!! thanks so much Arthur V!!! i was stuck on that part for like an hour!

You need to re-download your GT and replay the episode. Directions are in the OP.

[ArthurV]

Glad to help. :-)

The scene is basically red light/green light with dialogue choices.

Hello. Have you looked into the problem people are having with accessing the game? I bought the game and downloaded it, but i cant play it. When i boot up the game, it just says "get" in the episode menu even though it also says i have purchased it. I have tried deleting it and redownloaded it, but nothing helps. I wont even load my save game. I can only choose new game.

Xbox 360 version. Any help would be apperciated. Its frustrating to say the least. Thanks

Wassup everyone? I was wondering if someone ran into a similar situation?

I wanted to do another playthrough using my original data

(i copied the data from the playthrough i just finished, ep2 and saved it to a new slot), but I ran into a problem. After I rewinded my new slot to the beginning, some of the choices ive made in the first episode seem to have been changed.

the first example was when Carley is asking whether anyone knows about Lee's secret...

on my first playthrough Lee says Clem knows and he COULDN'T lie to her. When I used my newly copied slot (rewinded), Lee says that Clem MIGHT know, because he lied to her. I don't neccesarily wanna go thru the rest of the playthru cause some of my other options might have been altered. IS this a bug that could possibly be fixed?

thanks

This isn't something that came up during testing and I haven't been able to reproduce it. You'll need to choose Play from the main menu, select your previous save, and then choose Episode 2 from the menu to start that episode. What's happening you try to do that?

Have you tried deleting both episodes and then reinstalling? Do you have enough free space on your device to complete the Episode 2 download?

Thanks you! I played both episodes again with almost no lag!

Right. Having a lot of trouble getting Episode Two running on PC.

Originally, I had finished Episode One through the Telltale Games client, but decided I'd pick up Episode Two through Steam. So, downloaded it, got it running, noticed it was reading my other savegame fine, clicked over to Episode Two, hit Play...then black screen. No loading screen. Just black. The game wasn't frozen, as Windows wasn't picking up on the program as not responding, and I could even bring up the Steam overlay no problem. This happened every time I tried loading up Episode Two. Wondering whether it was just the Steam version not working right, I played through the last chapter of Episode One through it, and found no issues.

So, I thought to see whether the Telltale Games client would have a better time. Downloaded Episode Two through that, and it all installed fine. Went to load up my save, and at the savegame select screen, clicked Play...and it didn't work. Neither would any of the other buttons. They'd highlight as I moved my cursor over them, but clicking did nothing. So, I closed the game and started it up again. Worked up until the start menu, asking me to click any button. I'd do that, the screen would dim and then return as it was. Clicking again would start the Connecting process...and after a moment, everything would freeze. Every time. I then tried the Steam version again, and it now also freezes at this screen. Every time.

Anyone else having these issues? I'm suspecting I have multiple technical issues compounding each other. :/

My specs are as follows:

OS - Windows Vista Service Pack 2 32-bit
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad @ 2.66GH/z
GFX: ATi Radeon HD 6950
RAM: 4GB
