People seem to think a 'tailored game' means 'we'll deviate from our original story to follow the whims of all our players' when it doesnt. And your definition of incomplete apparently is different from TTGs

In the first place, no-one cares what TTG think. People expect something from the game/book/movie, and they get very upset if you don't give that to them.
And saying 'we meant completely different thing in our advertisement!' is pretty much like confessing you're doing false advertisement.

And this is not about Carley, this is about how we've been robbed of any effect of our choices on the story. I pretty much was expecting Carley being eaten in ep.2 while the rest were away at the diary, and I was like 'thanks god you're alive' when she was back. But this time TTG just openly admitted 'your choices don't really matter, we lie to you'.

Maugly · 09/03/2012, 04:30 am

I mean, TTG have pretty good scenarist, if you needed to remove Carley there were so many possibilities which give at least an illusion of a choice. IDK, I'm not a writer, let us shoot Lily before she attacks Carley, Carley gets mad at us, runs into woods and gets eaten, or something. What they did is completely lame and disrespectful to players.

Miracles can happen and they do happen. There is nothing wrong in people wishing for Carley to be saved somehow and I'm one of them. However, I have no problem in admitting the chances of another group of survivors with a good medical doctor (and a well equipped one at that) happening along later and finding her and willing to help is probably one in a million.

Carly is seen shot in lower face if you look closely, she could of had a great chance of survival. Many characters in TWD universe have survived headshots mainly carl who was shot in the eye

Tweet or post #BringBackCarly & #BringBackDoug on Twitter @telltalegames then post the same on Telltale Games facebook.

Gman5852 · 09/03/2012, 04:59 am

All right then! This is a great plan! While we are at it, let's bring back Glen, his head is only a puddle now after being beaten to death, he can survive that right? Tyresse can come back, decapitation's aren't fatal at all! Lori only took a shotgun blast at point blank, she can come back too!

And Carley and Doug can TOTALLY come back after being SHOT IN THE HEAD! Left with NO medical attention at all, lost IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FOREST! Where walkers probably found them, oh yeah and we are GOD KNOWS HOW FAR AWAY FROM THEM RIGHT NOW!

Face it! They are dead! It's Walking Dead! People die, good people, and there is nothing you can do about it! If Telltale really does bring them back, then they have lost all respect I've had of them.

Seath · 09/03/2012, 05:01 am

It seems really weird that the group didnt give two shits about Carley/Doug, and left them there for Zombie food, without checking pulse/life signs.

*Vainamoinen* · 09/03/2012, 05:01 am

Could you guys do me a favor?

Report every new "Save Carley" thread you see popping up immediately. We've got one already and there's one particularly idiotic poster who keeps making new threads and insults anyone with a differing opinion. Thanks!

That is certainly a mistep on Telltale's part, but by now they ARE dead. There is no way someone with such a head wound can survive the walk all the way to Savannah unarmed, with no food, and a massive head injury.

1) Actually, miracles can't happen and don't happen. Really. Magic does not really exist.
2) Well equipped as in a state of the art brain surgery hospital, following cryogenic evacuation from the field by helicopter.
3) In emergency situations, major incidents and disasters there is a system called 'triage'. Any medical professional coming across a casualty shot in the head during a zombie apocalypse would count her as dead. The medical professionals who had spent any time trying to help people in that state would have already been eaten. Probably by other medical professionals!

On a serious note: Because she's wacko. And in the former non-zombie world, people like that deserved our pity.

Vainamoinen, there is wacko, and there is psycopathic. Someone who just shot someone in the head based on a (misguided) hunch, thinking that is the best way to resolve the argument, has crossed the line.

I'm an open minded chap, but I can't drum up too much pity for psycopaths, and wouldn't choose them as travelling companions

I actually think upping these trends is bad idea. All this hype in the Twitter will make people buy ep.3 to see what's actually happened. Do you really want to promote TTG because of the bad decision they made? They'll be just happy they killed Carley/Doug.
I think writing them paper mail would be much better idea. Just fancy them having to sort out thousands of envelopes!

With 1k+ letters they can ignore silently, with this trending it is very public

Good points but I will stand firm, Carly was clearly shot in the lower face, not a fatal wound and the group didn't give two shits, you can hear her breath after shot.

He may not have been talking about you, but there are way too many threads about this one death like Telltale insulted God or worse, when all they did was kill off 1 character.

No one seems to get that this is based off the comic book series, where the creators idea of celebrating the 100th issue was to kill off the fan favorite by beating him to death with a baseball bat!

I wasn't talking about you AT ALL here.

Still, this is a "want Carley back" thread and was merged into the old one as a consequence. Please don't see this as some kind of punishment - I've been receiving dire pleas from community members to have some more merged threads because of all the duplicate discussion.

The guy in question has made half a dozen threads with lots of different accounts, naming most "How will Carley come back". He is no longer welcome here.

Let me make it abundantly clear: If you're disappointed because the character is gone and you somehow would like her back, this forum IS the place to voice and discuss.

For insults against anyone who accepts this death as an inevitable part of the story, this forum is the wrong place. For some kind of countermovement/revolution in dozens of identical Carley threads, this forum is also the wrong place.

It's good that you want a character back, that means Telltale wrote them really well, but don't expect them to come back.
