So near the end, after you jump off the bridge and get on the train, you apparently have the option of saving Omid or Christa. The thing is, Omid ran by so fast that I only had Christa on screen, but then I got wrapped on because I didn't help Omid.

Did anybody else do this by accident? I'm sure I could have seen Omid if I had moved the mouse around, but with everything happening so fast, and me only being able to see Christa, what was I to do?

Aww that
s too bad

I was thinking since Omid was hurt I should grab him first and Christa would probably make it on the train or I could lean out and grab her

You get yelled at no matter what you do.

Sir Craigius · 08/31/2012, 05:38 am

Yeah, no matter who you save, the other one chews you out. Him for you not saving a woman first, her for you not saving the injured person first.

It also doesnt matter if you push Omid off the bridge or not, he hurts himself either way.

Altho I could see that choice coming back to bite you in the ass, long term. I expect firm tongue lashing from Christa later on in my game.

Exactly like me :P

pdlbean · 08/31/2012, 12:50 pm

I did the exact same thing as the OP. I would have saved Omid first because he was hurt, but Christa was right there, why waste time, right?

YamiRaziel · 08/31/2012, 12:53 pm

What happens when you choose her instead of him? He can't die... right?

United 23 · 08/31/2012, 12:56 pm

I saved Christa first purely because she was the first out of the two I saw. I don't really like either of them so I hope they don't stick around too long.

kirby18 · 08/31/2012, 12:56 pm

I saved Christa just because she was in my screen too, but I laughed when Omid just somehow caught up after not even being able to stand on his own 5 seconds ago... I mean really? Unless Omid is a track star I am calling bs

Omegabegin · 08/31/2012, 12:57 pm

I did the same thing. I TRIED to save Omid first because his leg was screwed up, but the camera was giving me hell and I couldn't find the indicator on Omid. So I assumed I had to save Christa. Then when she chewed me out for not saving Omid first, I realized that I must have been able to do it after all.

I've been trying to do a "live with the consequences" run and this is the first time I reloaded. I feel kind of dirty about it, but since saving Omid first was my initial intent anyway, I don't think it's that big a deal.

Not in my game. Worked fine. Omid was in the lead and I had the option to talk to him or help him. I remember thinking Hmmm..I have questions but maybe this is not the time...

They both look like they have good cardio but Omid was injured. So I helped Omid just to be sure he made it. Christa was okay the whole time..I knew she would make it without help.

Murasaki · 08/31/2012, 01:01 pm

When the scene first played out I was not aware there was a choice. I just somehow chose Omid.

Can't say I care either way. They both seem bland.

United 23 · 08/31/2012, 01:04 pm

I find it quite a pointless choice really. No matter which one you save, they scream at you for not saving the other, when regardless of if they are injured, they get in the train without a scratch.

If you rescue Omid, he shouts at you for not saving a woman first.
If you rescue Christa, she shouts at you for not saving someone who was injured first.

Murasaki · 08/31/2012, 01:06 pm

Maybe there should have been an option to do nothing. Then you wouldn't hear them complain.

United 23 · 08/31/2012, 01:09 pm

I kind of wish that was an option. I don't see them sticking around long at all.

Apparently there is an option to talk to Omid... I am going to try this instead of save him.

Tbh, it wouldn't surprise me if all the characters are killed off, with the possible exception of Clem. If there's any sense of justice to be made, that has to be the outcome.

United 23 · 08/31/2012, 01:16 pm

It makes sense to me if everyone either died or left the group just leaving Lee and Clem. I can't imagine the whole group going and searching for that guy on the walkie or looking for her parents. Seems like it makes more sense for where the plot is going to have it just Lee and Clem.

Masta23 · 08/31/2012, 01:25 pm

Yes initially I didn't realise it was a choice. I just clicked on Omid first, but then he got angry that I didn't save Christa first, because she's a woman.
