The Walking Dead: 400 Days

Zero-Cool

So, Telltale's The Walking Dead facebook page just posted this link with the caption 'Day 2'

What the hell could it mean!

http://vine.co/v/b3gbMwUuD1x

Who is Vince and why is he 'Wanted'

The biggest question though is what happened to (TWD 1 spoilers)

Clementine!!!!!!!!!!!

Mr Freeze

Aren't they supposedly doing some content to bridge the gap between Season 1 and 2, and Season 2 might not be till 2015! :eek:

Ah right, this could be the bridge then! Might rename this thread to Day 2 instead of Season 2. Whatever it is, more TWD can only be a good thing.

Grimebox

I hope they start over with Season 2. There is no need to continue the storyline from the previous one imo. An entirely new self-contained plot would be best

I hadn't heard anything on a release date, and looking it up now, I'm seeing "Fall 2013" as per here.

Edit: The only place I've seen news of TWD S2 and anything about 2015 on the same page was this page and the 2015 was another article talking about a commercial moon telescope. That's pretty cool.

Mr Freeze

Oh I may have meant 2014, too late for an edit now!

Pushtrak

But even 2014 would have been wrong, it'll be out by the tail end of this year, seemingly.

With them doing The Wolf Amoung Us game, which is supposed to be this year, I can't see them getting TWD season 2 out as well.

They were slow enough with TWD, wasn't there a massive delay between Ep 1 and 2, and it was supposed to be monthly?

It would be great if it was this year. But there is no need for them to do something that is to bridge the gap if its out this year.

Day 220 clip released. Dunno whats going on

It could be people that this POV character has lost or is looking for.

You don't know if they are to be saved or killed?

Is there sound on those clips? I have no sound on my work PC.

Zero-Cool

Yeah, sounds like you're outside, winds and cricket noises. I'm sure all will be revealed at E3 anyway but big leap from Day 2 to Day 220

Are Vince and Bonnie the two silhouettes on the hill in 1.

Oh, interesting!

I always assumed those were walkers.

Okay, looks like this is DLC called The Walking Dead: 400 Days

I presumed they were Christa and Omid.

Potatoeman

I thought you were not ment to know. The choices you made would influence Clems decision.
They could just carry on with Clem as the main.

Are there any non-vine links? My phone doesn't support the Vine app seemingly and it won't play on my phone when I click the link.

Zero-Cool

400 Days is a 1 episode DLC that will tell 5 stories. I'm guessing it will be longer than the average episode. Will be released this summer.

Insta purchase for me.

degrassinoel

same here, just hope it's not a cheap cash-in

Mr Freeze

Day 1 purchase for me too.

Hopefully there is some cross over with eps 1 - 5, and maybe clear up the ending a bit.

Penn

I just don't understand how it could be 5 stories in one episode. Would you switch characters during the same episode?

Cravez

Could be each character storyline has the same length as each episode in Season 1? So potentially it could be as long as the original full Season.

Wishful thinking

Zero-Cool

Each ep was about 2 hours and cost 5 euro. I can see the DLC being 4-5 hours and costing 10-12 euro maybe. I'd be happy with that.

I'm hoping....

That's omid and christa in the distance, they tell clem a cure was found and
lee is all better waiting with her and her parents. Lee moves in with clems
family and they get into all sorts of comic situations.

titan18

They were just talking about 400 days there on Gametrailers. Telltale guy said it'll be 5 stories, each about 15 to 20 minutes, it's out next month, priced similar to one episode of season 1. Chapters can be played in any order, and what you do in one chapter can affect what you do in another, so the order they're played can affect the overall story. Decisions from season 1 come through into this, and decisions from this come into season 2.

CastorTroy

Good job they're giving plenty of notice

http://ie.ign.com/articles/2013/07/01/the-walking-dead-400-days-has-a-release-date

•Tuesday, July 2nd – PlayStation Network (North America)
•Wednesday, July 3rd – PC/Mac (Steam, Telltale Games Store)
•Friday, July 5th – Xbox Live (Worldwide)
•Wednesday, July 10th – PlayStation Network (Europe)
•Thursday, July 11th – iOS (Worldwide)

Pushtrak

Wasn't expecting it that early in July.

jaykhunter

I'm very happy we're getting this sooner than later, but I'm a bit suspicious of the little fanfare we've gotten. There's a long history of games quietly being released and being poor. I hope not, as season 1 was an amazing, emotional experience.

I'm sort of with you on this, considering it's out tomorrow on STEAM, it's not even advertised on there for purchase or pre-purchase

Kiith

I can't see us getting much of an attachment to a character over 15-20 minutes of playtime. Will definitely still buy it, but not expecting it to be anything like the first game.

True, but a poor episode now might sour people's thoughts on buying Season 2 so TellTale will need to make sure this is some what decent. I reckon it will be a cliffhanger type episode. Something to whet our whistle and have us craving for more. In fact, this episode could be the marketing/advertising for Season 2. :P

degrassinoel

This is sounding more and more like a cheap cash-in, for once i think i'll wait a few days after it's been released before i pay up.

Where are you reading that its 15-20 minutes?

Zero-Cool

It was somewhere in an interview. 4 or 5 mini episiodes at 15 to 20 minutes each. Each episode about a different character. Man will have to be very careful of spoilers as it's out today in the US and I won't get to play it til next wednesday (Euro PS3).

Captain Chaos

I can't play the Walking Dead on my PS3 anymore. Keep on getting an error code every time I try to start it up. I have deleted it and re downloaded it 3 times now. I finished it on the 360 no problem but it's very buggy on the PS3, the camera view keeps glitching outside the game world and freezing when it did work but it's dead now?

CastorTroy

hope it goes really cheap on amazon like how I got the first game

Did you delete your data too?

Ah, you might be on to something there.

Zero-Cool

Trophies were released for this. Just trophies for clearing each chapter like before but there is one I can't wait to get

http://www.ps3trophies.org/game/the-walking-dead/trophies/

Reunited: Found an old friend

Captain Chaos

The trophy list updated on my PS3 with the latest patch. No point in spoilers, everyone with game installed now can see the list.

Got my game working again though. Had to delete my save files. The game data was fine but the saves were corrupted. Have to go through it all again for Friday.

Grimebox

Will 400 days require a save of the first season at all?

CastorTroy

Score from IGN for PS3
http://ie.ign.com/articles/2013/07/02/the-walking-dead-400-days-review

8.9

So it's just a one off.

Grimebox

Strange that its not on steam yet

No, it will follow a cannon story line if you have no S1 save file.

Did they release a canon storyline? Anyone got a link or a summary? Cheers.

They had to because you don't have to play or complete season one to play 400 days but the developers highly recommend you do complete s1 before 400 days as you will enjoy the latter much more and not be left scratching your head at certain points when certain events or people show up.

SeantheMan

Crap !!! Checked steam to see if I still had TWD installed, noticed I only had 40/48 of achievements....
Checked DLC link to the right, ...not DLC for this game out yet..
So...checked achievements to see what I was missing.....spoilers... ...obviously they're from the upcoming game/content

I've played S1 but I'm just curious as to how the canon story would match up with my own playthrough.

Apparently it's free if you bought S1 on the Telltale store.

Newaglish

So is it out or what? I couldn't find it on Steam.
