    Nope, it won't. I don't know of a single adventure game that is free roam. And none of the previous telltale games were free roam. And I do not think free roam works well for bttf and keeping the story in check with all the time travelling.

    I don't think the IFT will be part of the story. That was for an amusement park and I view it as an alternate dimension and not canon to the movies at all, same as the animated series. It just doesn't make sense with the IFT being there and then have Doc preaching that no one should know too much about time travel, especially after the Biff incident.

    He was set on destroying it................until he made the train. That breaks his rule, lol. He wanted to destroy the time machine and to stop going through time. The Delorean was just a specific example because was the only time machine at that point.

    I doubt there will be much driving at all, if any at all, because unlike the mod in its current state, the TellTale game is more focused on the characters and story then it is on the vehicles and environment, and more focused on the adventure aspect then the screw around do anything you want of the mod.

    nononono, that would cause a paradox. If doc took the Delorean from 1885, then there would be no delorean in 1955 for Marty to take, so he won't be able to go back to 1885, which means Doc will be killed, and then that means he can't get the Delorean in the first place, so the Delorean would be there, which means Marty can take it, and...well you get my drift.

    I don't see how you think they have a bad explanation. Theres plenty of good ones too you pessimist :P

    Here's....hmm, I'll say a rough draft of one.

    After jumping around in time for a bit in the train, Doc got worried that the train would attract too much attention because of its size and the noise it makes, making it easy to spot, so he decided to make another car. The easiest, and less time-consuming one to make, would be the Delorean, as he has the blueprints for it already and would not need to redraw them, so he goes do that. So he takes Clara, leaves the boy behind (but only for a second because....they do have a time machine), and goes to 1985, gets another Delorean, and builds it in Grass Valley (The place where he built the first one and where no one found out). Doc knows a secluded area around there, so he uses that to make temporal excursions back to the past every now and then to see the boys (don't want them mucking around in 1985 quite yet..you know how kids are) and rest up, but overall, it takes 6 months of 1985 time to finish the time machine. After that, Doc takes it to the future, gets all the conversion (alternatively, he would have gotten the parts in the future first and done them in 1985), and goes back to the past, where Clara has taken the train back already, and Doc spends his time blacksmithing and tweaking the machines once again.

    Flash forward, oh noes, Doc is in trouble, he sends the machine back to the future, 6 months after the departure date to make sure no paradoxes occur, and Marty finds out and begins TellTale's story.

    The Delorean is such an iconic vehicle of the movies that it would make sense for a back to the future game to remake the delorean and feature it in a game. As awesome as the train is, its the Delorean that defines the movies for me as the time machine of choice, so it makes sense for them to bring it back as a 2nd time machine. From what it sounds like, the Delorean has some kind of system that allowed it to time travel to 1985 and find Marty. Don't know much about it, but the possibilities are endless on what happened.

    I wouldn't say if you build a new car that it would be completely different. Doc might have built an exact duplicate because he had the blueprints already and it wouldn't take him almost a decade to build (train) and would be faster than if he made new blueprints, and the car didn't really need much changing from the way it was in bttf2, which it was pretty cutting edge then. I don't see why he would change much, other than cover the components in the back, but all the bands, mr. fusion, and the vents would still be there. If something would change a lot, it would be the interior. It already does sound like the car is more advanced then the old one, as it traveled through time remotely and in a way that allowed Marty to easily find it.

    As for the story, I would wait. You don't know enough to make any kind of conclusion at all. It just says a delorean comes back and Marty needs to go back in time (past sounds like) to find Doc. No mention of the JVT? Of course not, this wasn't a story behind the scenes. There was no mention of Einstein, Clara, or the boys either. We won't know until much later. So I would not accuse them of anything DK until I know whats going on and not base it off of a sentence from that vid.

    Is this suppose to be based on the films or the animated series (sarcasm), cause it looks like the animated series.

    But really, it looks pretty cool. Telltale is known to do cartoony looking games, so...

    Listen to the behind the scenes before asking what its based on.  Its quite clear where it lies in the continuity.  Also read Bob Gale's Q&A.  Thats more of where it lies as well.
