Telltale Games

CKcheeseboy · 10/18/2008, 06:21 am

I was looking at the article for this game on the HRwiki, and I noticed this in the glitches section:

"Sometimes, when in Extended Play, attempting to save to Slot 3 will result in the game freezing, buzzing and require a hard reset."

I was thinking this issue could be related to the issue people in this thread were having, because it would make sense in my case. My brother used Slot 2 and had no issues, but I had Slot 3 when I had all my issues. Was anybody else in this thread using Slot 3? That could help Telltale narrow down the source of the problem if that's something everybody has in common.

I don't know why it would have an issue during autosave, since that's Slot 1 by default, but maybe it happens if you are using a file loaded from Slot 3.

No. I'm on Slot 1 and it's the AutoSave anyway.

Thanks for the tip!

I've wrote an email to TellTale support like 4 or 5 days ago regarding this issue (and my deception of having two glitchy games with no patch yet) and I still have to hear from them. My mail was nice and all.

Thank you. Unfortunately, for the moment, I have only received an auto-reply. I've checked everything. Thanks for your hint.

You were right! There was a human error and your ticket got lost to the wind, sorry about that! You should soon have a response in your email. Sorry again!

No problem! Thank you for your help!

Is everyone who has the Wii version experiencing the "Aw crap" glitch? Actually, the game prevents me from saving if I take any step beyond finding out the KoT's plans. Should I just start the game over and hope that whatever events that led to the game-crashing glitch don't happen again? I really wanna find out what happens before going on to the next game.

A relatively small population seems to have this problem actually. You are certainly welcome to try starting over and trying again, though if you do I would suggest redownloading everything from scratch, just to be safe.

CKcheeseboy · 10/30/2008, 01:46 pm

Yeah, and it doesn't seem to be consistent, either. I had issues, but my brother (on the same Wii) said he didn't have any problems.

And maybe you could try redownloading the channel but keeping the save file to see if that helps before restarting entirely.

TheZaius · 10/31/2008, 12:42 am

Thanks for the much-needed info. I'll definitely try out the tips mentioned and I'll let you guys know if anything works.

Okay, I was able to get things running without save glitches. Reinstalling the channel didn't work but what I tried was... using an older save file. See, after storming the castle, I had decided to save in a new slot (slot 3, if slot 1 is autosave). That was the one with all the problems so I just went back to slot 2 and finished it from there, being cautious of any glitches that popped up. I did notice in my slot 3 save that there was a glitch in the war game where Poopsmith's stench stayed stuck in one spot. I don't know if that could've led to, maybe, the corruption of the save file or whatever. I'm not sure exactly what's wrong with the save. But there were no glitches in slot 2.

Afterwards, in the extended play slot, I noticed another glitch in the war game where Poopsmith's running animation was replaced with some still, sliding movement. I reseted the game upon seeing this, just in case.

EDIT: To avoid triple posting, I'm gonna just edit this post with my latest concern. Although I was able to beat the game, now I'm experiencing random crashes. First in KoT's castle, now it's whenever I try to go to Strong Bad's house and it's ALWAYS while trying to save. It just seems like the game is unstable. Whatever... I'll just move on and hope Ep. 3 doesn't give me such difficulty.
