I did too.
Given the situation and the dialog choices, realistically I felt telling Leland the truth would have worse implications than just quickly lying and then bailing.

The Walking Dead: 400 Days DLC |OT| (400) Days of Zombies
- Thread starter CoolS
- Start date
i just finished this. it was a fun little romp
i wish maybe there would've been less characters with a bit longer and drawn out "episodes" ... i feel like i could've done without wyatt's story, for example. (the dumb banter between him and AJ from the backstreet boys really got on my nerves.) but if this DLC beautifully plays into season 2 then nevermind
either way, now i can read the thread with being spoilerized. yay

Loved the DLC for being short but hitting fairly hard.
I don't know if I want to reset and try to bring everyone to camp or not..I only got to bring Shel and Bonnie and I made a pact way back at the start of Season 1 that I would never rewind, but now I feel like I might miss out on content if I leave the 3 guys behind.
Concerning season 2:
I honestly don't think these people from the DLC will be a major part of Season 2. I bet it just determines who will be a NPC in the town you go to in the epilogue (people who you just talk to). The amount of people who don't buy this DLC but buy Season 2 would make it really bad if TTG just made the people from 400 days playable in S2.

Wow, I think you're right. Didn't catch the
cornfield
I love how there are some tiny details that fit with each other's stories.

It was only ok for me, I didn't really like any of the characters. Its probably because they don't get enough time to get fleshed out though. I enjoyed Russel's story the most out of all of them.
Finished, liked it quite a bit. Easily worth 5 bucks. Dialogue felt a little more hit and miss than I remember Season 1 being overall, but for the most part it's engaging, fast paced adventure gaming with interesting situations and a unique storytelling structure that compliments the universe. I was in the minority for a lot of my choices, which was alright with me. Wasn't as precious about dialogue and choice this time since they could only be built up so much.
Would be cool to meet up with the crew that left with Tavia in Season 2, only had Shel and Becca stay behind. Seems like that's the most logical route, given how many outcomes there are, but a few of them could figure more prominently along with the aforementioned safe zone.
I've checked on the box and online and found nothing. Either early morning or afternoon is my guess.

5-6AM Eastern for Xbox Live updates, generally.
I told the truth, but to be honest that was probably because I suspected lying wouldn't have worked. I was also a lot more cavalier with my choices because you're not as attached to the characters yet, and there is no real fail state anyway.
I appreciate that you can just make the choices you feel like making and don't have to min-max it.

I hope it's up on XBLA in UK by the time I get home from work!
Wouldn't play it on Xbox if it weren't for the fact I played season 1 there.

Just beat it and I loved it. Here's my choices:
Vince:
Wyatt:
Russell:
Bonnie:
Shel:
Vince:
Shot Justin's foot because Danny seemed liked the better guy. Was a little shocked they just left him.
Wyatt:
Won Rock/Paper/Scissors, drove off and left Eddie.
Russell:
Hid behind...Carly :'( ditched that psycho Nate.
Bonnie:
I was seriously shocked when we bashed in Dee's face. It made me feel a little sick looking at her. Anyway, I told the truth.
Shel:
I really enjoyed this one and I'm liking Shel the best. I saved the bandit and drove off so I didn't have to kill Stephanie. Was really cool that this was the same group that Dee stole from.
Epilogue: everyone but Russell and Vince came. I'm probably going to redo it since I wanted everyone to come. I would like to know what happened before they all met. Where's leland and why was Danny killed?

Just to be clear, If I played Season 1 on disc and do not have any episodes purchases or installed am I screwed? Will I have to buy Episode 1 in order to play this DLC?

I enjoyed it. Some of the things that happened at the end because of my 'decisions' are kind of head scratching but overall it was fun.

Yeah, that happened to me. I opened the game up in Steam, got all excited, and then realized the saved game was on my husband's old hard drive.
Nothing against
Doug
when I hid off the road it was Doug and not Carley. I miss Carley. We share the same name, only hers is misspelled.
I plan on replaying season 1 again before season 2 comes out.
Oh man, this was sooo good. Season 2 needs to launch soon. D:
Spoilery question:
I finished with Bonnie, Wyatt, and Russel choosing to follow the black lady. I hope I do get to see more Shel and Becca tho. Interesting parallels with the Lee-Clem dynamic. Bonnie, Shel, and Vince's segments were pretty cool. I liked the connection between Wyatt and Russell's segments. I kinda wonder if Crazy Nate will return in Season 2.
Spoilery question:
I think I missed what happened to Leland and was the bag Dee found. Is that mentioned anywhere?

That's what I got from that dialogue exchange.
The boat wasn't big enough for all of them anyway. I suppose he just chose the dick method in handling that issue.
Oh, that's anti-climatic lol.
So I just bought it and was really excited, started the game and it says "WalkingDead101.exe stopped working".
I found a lot of threads when I tried to google it but all of them were for the original game, not the dlc and non of the fixes helped at all. I'm on Windows 7.
Any suggestions?

The only thing I've noticed that it pulls from your S1 file is (S1 Episode 3 spoiler)
the body of Carly or Doug on the side of the road.

There is a DLC version for the disc version and one for the DD version of TWD. When you buy it it'll let you choose.
Not at all, but I think you'll have a much richer experience with it. Re: Season 2... since your playthrough of Season 1 is on a different platform, it wouldn't carry over to Season 2 on PC. If you have the time, I'd do another run through Season 1 on the PC.
No, if you look a little further up the page or on the last page there is a link from telltale saying you just need the disc in the drive.

That older black gentleman, and I think the older white chick. Both of their names escape me at the moment though.

While I naturally didn't have as deep a connection with the characters in 400 Days as I did in Season 1 proper (due to the amount of time spent with them), I am all on board to dive into these characters' lives in Season 2 if we get that option. I really like the different backstories and personalities on display... Wyatt & Vince would make for a great buddy-cop movie.

I like that they felt sorry for it at least, even though we have no idea what actually happened.
If I played up 400 Days then played Season 1, do you think those choices would carry over to season 2?

So who else thought a lot of the characters looked like variations of ones from season 1?
Shel looked like Lily
Becca looked a little like Clem
Vince looked like a bearded Glen
Russell looked like Omid
Roman's eyes were totally on the St. John level
I guess it's to be expected. I didn't dislike it or anything, I just noticed it.

As long as it's all being played on the same platform, then yes, it should all carry over.
I got the impression that the only reason they felt bad was because Vernon bounced on them as well, or something to that effect, soon after they took the boat.
Some of those comparisons are pretty spot-on. Though I think Shel and Lily aren't so close, and Vince seems pretty distinct from Glen imo.. However I definitely can see similarities between Becca and Clem-- and as an aside,
I couldn't help thinking "Jeezus, is Clem going to become an stone-cold bitch like Becca down the road?"
I thought Danny (from Vince's segment) looked a lot like the St. John brother.
Dat stealth edit. No biggie though I'm sure it doesn't ruin anything too much. Glad you fixed it for everyone else.
Roman is a bald Andy.

I imagine TellTale has their own internal "Character Creation" engine a la Elder Scrolls, etc... and that's why we see a lot of similar features.
Yeah, I don't think that's much of a spoiler, but I changed it anyway.
