Release for PC?

I know that this episode is supposed to be coming out on friday for the pc, but I guess I don't really know when this kind of stuff is normally released on steam, or since it is episodic if it works the same way that steam normally does. Does anyone have a goodd guess about what time this game will be released? Kind of antsy to jump in and play, since I have only been hearing good things about the new episode.

I'm assuming it will be released at 'Steam-o-clock' ie. the time that the daily deals end each day (9~ hours from now).

Should be around 6 hours from now, on valve time.

Hoping the steam sales begin too :(

The episode is downloaded from within the game so nothing to do with valve time. The news / associated steam ad might not appear on steam until when these guys suggest though. Keep an eye on telltale's twitter account or check 'Episodes' in the menu of the game itself.

Damn it! Yet again technical problems with a Telltale game. For some reason I'm missing half the graphics from the game.

wtf,

I very explicitly made sure that Carley died instead of Doug, and yet, in the opening recap of episode 2, it shows Doug dying. I even went back and replayed the ending of Episode 1 to make sure that Doug was still alive; alas, there he was ambiguously using a screwdriver on a laptop, even the episode stats say that I saved Doug - yet I'm apparently stuck with Carley. I hope Telltale didn't assume everyone wanted Carley and just didn't program in any options for Doug-people D:
